I recently took over as Admin of another website run by Looker.com. In the course of checking all 29,000 profiles I found a profile discrepancy using the IP number 67.159.5.116 PROXY.This checked via Nextwebsecurity.com as :- Scammer Found! (ID: 15799) IP Block (Frequent Scammer) Country UNITED STATES.
WHOIS – 67.159.5.116 Location: United States [City: Woodstock, Illinois]
I believe the details below give an idea of the origin of the scammer, BURMA, and more likely BURUNDI, EAST AFRICA, and also that it does not only involve itself in car scams, but romance scams as well, so it is well worth marking these up. There are indications that there is some interaction between the fakes such as comments and friends, but this is a common ploy to gain credibility that occurs frequently in social network sites. The proxy use is sustained over a few weeks of activity and indicates this is a favourite with this scam group.
