I'm baiting this one using two different "personalities". It looks like she actually reads the mails, she answers all my questions and she isn't deeply in love with any of us, yet.
Here's one of her pictures:
I'm not going to post other details at the moment, as I'm not 100% sure that she's a scammer.
I tried to google her, but to no avail.
Has anyone seen her before? |

I don't deal with the dating scammers, but that photo look suspiciously model-like to me, with posing, white fur and all that. Something I would expect from a scammer, but from a real person I would expect something more...um...real?

I don't recognise the girl, but scammers steal pictures from everywhere so that's no real indicator. The picture is over 2 years old (Jan 22nd 2005). The best thing to do is to post up the headers of the emails for us to look over along with some background info. Does she claim to write from an internet cafe, that kind of thing. |

I may be really thick, but how did you get the picture's date?
By the way, the headers of her emails report different originating IP-addresses, all connected to some satellite providers in different countries (USA, Israel, Ghana). |

OK, I knew about EXIF data, but on Photobucket they do not show up.
I will have to get some programs to view them. |

Irfanview and the plugin pack (both free) is what I use. It's quick and simple.
(edit) Want to post up the headers for us to pick through too? |

Ok, thanks!
I've got just now "Exif Viewer"; it's quite a handy program and it's free. |

Yes, that picture looks quite professional (although a good amateur with a decent set-up can get the same results).
She sent me other pics, they are all taken with the same camera, between Dec. 2004 and Jan. 2006.
Definitely suspicious...
here's one of the headers:

In, ermmm, my previous, ummmm, research (yes, that it, research) for love scammers, I saw her. I think she might go under the name of Emily18. |

It is unusual that they answer ALL your questions! Usually 1 out of 5 is about the norm unless you push the point. |

You're right, that's why I'm not really sure she's a scammer.
Oh, well.. the bait goes on... |

You gotta admitthough, some of the models they nick aren't bad looking apart from "Mrs exposure" posted in another thread.
Or maybe it's me |

Well, I personally do not find this one very much attractive. Looks like she has a nice rack, though... |

I googled the Camera model. It isn't too fancy, basically looks like a regular camera but the cost kinda says it's a model cam - �700. Nobodie's gonna buy that for general snaps. We certainly have a model here |

@wayne,
But some models can be rather mingin'. Take mrs Katie Price for example. or is she now Katie Andre? Nice 4 years ago but now look at her - over enlarged tits, ugly and with a crap singer. |
