This scammer will quickly fall in love
Once the scammer believes he has his victim hooked he will begin to try to get his hands on your money.
The first attempt will be by convincing you to buy a phone that will allow you to communicate with him for free once the registration has been paid.
You will never actually receive the phone as it doesn’t exist.
Once he has his hands on your money for the phone he will begin his next lie, Army leave,
He will convince his victim that he would like to visit them but in order to do that he will need to apply for leave, he will tell you that in order for his leave to be approved a fee will need to be paid as well as forms that need to be filled in.
Everything you are told will be a lie, it is all for the purpose of stealing your money.

Will request payment to be made to this person: Nicola Todd, London UK.
Person handling the leave documents: [email protected]
Payment requested to be made to Kevin Lambert
