well I knew something wasn't right but was hoping I was wrong till I went to another website and they said to go too Google image and upload a picture of a person.. So I did.. wasn't to much of a surprise but was hoping I was wrong, about this man.

He kept asking me for money to help his son and daughter out. Says the kids are living with his mom in UK. And doesn't have enough money.. I kept saying I don't have the money at this time to help him out. I wasn't going to send him money either..

Am glad I went to Google image and uploaded his picture. I am also glad I joined this site.
Men have tried to scam me out of money but I haven't given any. I can usually spot scamming men when they use two first names.

HI,
Yes a lot of scammers around, here is another one, calls himself JEFF FELDMAN HERNANDEZ, American soldier on tour in Afghanistan, said he wanted to marry me from about second day, met him on dating site, we got on well then he said he knew a way for me to get him Vocational leave and gave me an email address to send request to, [email protected], states his rank is Captain MOSNO. RNS09/MILO7/MOS67, Looked online and found out a lot of this going on, They just want you to send money to them through western union, I challenged him and said I needed various forms,his social security number,date of birth, his CO's name and rank, never heard from him again, SURPRISE,luckily I would not give anyone money who I have never met, so LADIES be careful, Marisa

It is rather alarming how fast they are changing their names. I really got luck not to lose any money to all these guys up to now. I was always warned when they asked for money without having met me personally. And they always asked after such a short time.

It is just really sad, that the real persons from all these pictures have possible problems in their private lifes just because of these scammer. They are not only breaking the hearts of women or collecting the money.

All these scammer who are pretending to be member of the US Military, equal of which branch, they are pretending to work for, giving the Military a real bad image. And it is really sad to see as well, that the Military cannot do very much or even are not interested in finding these scammers. I got bad experiences with the Garrison near to my village here in Germany by trying to contact them just because of a possible dating scammer who pretended to work for the branch of the AFRICOM here as member of the civil staff. I just broke off the contact after the first date and haven't seen him anymore since then.

I found this Alan Donohue aka howard Jordan on the dating site www.Be2.ca claiming to be a Captain of the US Airforce Special Ops. He did ask for money and I shot him down. told him in a way ot f'off and I cancelled my email accounts that he had access to. He gave me everything I wanted to hear, but glossed over the personal stuff. I got a dob - March 17, 1962, but that could be wrong as well.
He lives in Los Angeles, his children, a boy and a girl ages 7 & 12 live with his sister. I got the picture of him holding the beer bottle in the blue shirt. He is stationed in Afghanistan and wants to come home. Needs the flight paid for from kabul to Kuwait to where I live.
the commanding officer colonel William Piatt is at Fort Benning, Georgia. Found this out by going on google and where he was. The email I got from the dating site is [email protected]. He's 6'2.

I posted something earlier. Thr guy in the pics posted on this site,is it him sending the emails? Or some ass from Africa?????
I want to know who He teally is???

The scammer is a young African man. He is not the man in the pictures.

He stole the pictures off the internet.

In general, we do not recommend trying to track down or contact the person in the photos. Unlike the scammer, the real person is very likely married or in a meaningful relationship (if he is alive--scammers won't hesitate to use photos of a soldier who was killed in action.) His personality is likely nothing like the scammer's phony personality. He may not welcome contact from a strange woman who has been scammed using his photos. Some women have found the real person, only to be hurt much more by the real person's attitude toward them.

The scammer has saved his photos, so there is no way the real person can stop him from using them. Learning that women are being scammed using his photo when he can't do anything about it is also likely to leave him frustrated and upset.

Does anyone on this forum recognize these email addresses?

[email protected] OR

[email protected]

both are on Zoosk dating site? Just for peace of mind

Some scammers use different email addresses for each victim, so merely posting an email address and having it not recognized is not going to ensure you are not dealing with a scammer.

Posting the first message or two this person sent you will help us to help you better. If the person does not appear to be a scammer, we can remove their information.
