Love scammers use many ploys such as sob stories that they have millions of dollars that they need help transferring out of the country; parents were killed; anything that will make their intended victim feel sorry for them and want to help. You will be asked for money up front in any of the love scams. The reasons used for wanting money will be for travel, certificates to get the millions transferred to you, and many more. Many times the scammer will send his victims a counterfeit check or money order requesting that the victim cash it and wire cash back to him.

lives would be in danger.

communication with the scammer immediately. Do not try to retaliate
against the scammer, because he may have your personal information,
and doing so would alert him to our informants.

Hi sanann and welcome to scamwarners,

That is genuine warning from one of our warners, if you would like to post the scammers email address and one of his early emails I will most likely be able to find some other examples of the emails you have recieved.

I have done a search on "morgan williams scam" and found This result

Feel free to try a search on morgan williams' email address for yourself in the same way, you may also like to search on his phone number if he hs given you one, I would think you will find plenty of proof.


Your best course of action would be to immediately stop communicating with Morgan, almost everything he has told you will be a lie, all designed to convince you to send him money, many people get caught up in this type of scam leaving them not only broke but also heartbroken, I do hope you have found out about this in the early stages because we know of many cases where people have lost everything including sometimes their life to this scam.

Please feel free to ask any questions you have, and one of us will be able to answer it for you.

We ask little in return for what we do, that is to help us in this fight by telling your family and friends about what you have learnt, spreading the word really does make a difference :wink:

Lastly, could you please reply to the warning from Danielle so she knows you have recieved the warning, it really does save us lots of time.

Thanks for stopping by feel free to look around, there is lots of information on scams here which will help you to protect yourself from scammers in the future, thats the best thanks we can ever get :lol:
