is the shot that came with the mail,

is the shot of the INCREDIBLE young porn actress they are claiming to be.

i was never really in any danger of being taken by this scammer, and the links on this site helped me find incontraverible proof that this IS a scammer, 100%. So i want to post them and hopefully stop slinging this poor skin peddlers face around the internet.

im stringing them along, i knew as soon as i got the email, WITH the first picture

(not only was she replying to my post called "Hung Horny and Bored" but she claiming to be in her 30's, best looking 30 year old with braces ive EVER seen!!! but if you look its so clumsily photoshopped along the bottom border where they cut off the website as to be laughable. This image should be in a list of "how not to make a convincing photoshop edit")

they want me to forward a western union cash advance that they are going to send me, if im lucky i may make a few bucks off this sucker.

Question for all of you,

whats the worst thing they can do to me with my address, name, and photo?

im 25, i am literally flat friggin broke, i have no credit rating nor have i ever owned a credit card.
can they do any damage to me besides signing me up for mailings?

edit: they were very convincing, chatting me up right now on yahoo,

last message?
"im thinking about you in bed right now :)"

If you're lucky, you won't end up in jail.

The scammers are not sending you money by Western Union. Any money sent to you via WU is coming from a victim. If you collect this money and pass it on, you are acting as a money laundering mule. When the victim realizes he or she has been scammed, and reports the scam to the authorities, the easiest path for them to follow is the money--which will lead them straight to you. You can easily find yourself facing fraud or money laundering charges--and if you are in the US, we are talking felony here. Your intent was to get hold of money that doesn't belong to you--law enforcement won't care if your intended victim was a thief or not. In fact, they may not even care if you had no intent to steal at all--completely innocent mules have been charged in the past, and it will happen even more in the future, as more agencies are taking a harsher view of the activity in light of security concerns related to these actions.

Dude, you're dealing with criminals here. Don't underestimate that "sucker". Poor photoshopping skills don't equal 'harmless idiot'. If he's got your true name and address, cease all communication. Period.
