A romance scammer drops by scamwarners, and attempts to use us to pick up new victims! I've seen plenty who come to convince current victims, or to harass victims, but I've never seen an approach quite like this one. He actually posted 3 times, but I deleted 2 of them.

Even though I edited his post to ensure no real victims contact him, it would be a pity to see his efforts go to waste.

Therefore, I am offering him as a friend to all of you.

Thanks Dorothy. What a piece of steaming effluent he is. How dare he make advances to your sister (site).

Doughnut loves a man in uniform! She is getting in touch with him pronto.
Hope he likes women who are borderline sociopaths.

Love Phil X

Apart from being the lowest of the low (and thus suitable for what I will eventually plan for him).

Maybe Phil and I can finally do that co-bait we've been talking about. This asshole deserves some SPECIAL attention, the kind only the ditz and doughnut can give! what do you think Phil?

I have a friend who used to work for KLM back in the 90's, so I might be able to de-educate him as well. The ditz is IN!

I think it's game ON, Moles! Smile

eta: A quick google comes with the scamwarners thread and (of all things) The American Legion (department of france). Though the legion's email addy is an aol and not the one posted on scamwarners. will edit in the ditz's reply as soon as I think of it

etaa: I was a bit concerned he wouldn't write to an unsolicited email, so I wrote to him as a member of scamwarners, and took the "I'm lonely, scam me again" angle:

Dear Mr Jenkins,

I saw your post on scamwarners, and after falling victim to a scammer myself last year, it was good to hear from an actual military man.

Since the divorce I've been incredibly lonely and Yalbraith is so far away from everything, it gets quite depressing. I've been trying to sell the property for some time now, and so far there has been no buyers.

I guess I was vulnerable, and the scammer I fell for was very smart, though I still feel ashamed that he took me for almost $100,000. Almost a fifth of my savings in fact. But look at me rambling on to a man I don't even know. I'm sorry, it must be embarrassing for you to have to put up with the likes of me, I was just SO relieved to hear that I am not the only one to have fallen for scams in the past.

If you have time, maybe you could tell me about what you do in the Military. Are you overseas? Seeing battle? These are dangerous times for soldiers, and I worry that we'll lose anothe rof our boys over there.

Please write back,

Kathrin

Hopefully just the right amount of neediness/carrot dangling Wink
