[On A Mission]

I was contacted by Rick's famous likeness using just the name Edward and his profile said that he is 45, divorced and from Baltimore, Maryland. He got a Masters degree from Perry High School in Baltimore, which is in Rockville and a diploma in 1999 from St. Stephens High which would of made him 35 when he graduated from high school. I sent him a message but he was removed from MySpace before I got an answer.
I had also blocked him about two months ago as Frank Moss age 49 from Graham, Washington and realized that he was still on MySpace.
Both profiles are removed now. Looking at his long history, his aliases do seem to be getting shorter - keep up the good work!
The picture with no shirt is Edward and the other is Frank.

Next comes "Ben" and then - "Q" ?

[pgwoman]

I can't believe I have been so stupid. joe_cole@live.com supposedly living at 202 Rockborough, Calgary, Alberta, Canada, originally from Clifton, NJ. Got Masters in Social Work at Bryn Mawr. Phone +332 785 14604.Father died 12 years ago, mother 8. Married for 4 years to woman who cheated on him. In wholesale jewellry business. In Ghana buying 40 bars of gold to use to start his own chain of jewellry stores.

SMS's me from plane supposedly flying home to Canada - 20 minutes before takeoff. Then in middle of night got calls from +233 24902 8814 saying Cole was being held by Ghana Immigration. Had been removed from plane and detained because he had 1 bar of gold with him. Worth $18K.

I was so dumb I sent him a birthday present on his "birthday" - April 10th, 1958. Born in France.

Oh, yes, when he first went to Ghana at the beginning of April, one of his suitcases didn't show up. Needed boots (to go to the mine), cologne, camera, IPOD. I sent him my old camera and the cologne. How stupid!

He sent me 2 dozen roses and cute teddy bear. Amazing that I was taken in - I am usually very perceptive but either I' losing it or this guy is good.

Even told him about my brother in the RCMP who is investigating him. Didn't phase him. He has a present for me (gold necklace) and for my mom (African scarf).

"A fool and his money are soon parted" and I'm sad to say I have been a complete fool.

This started about March 28, 2009 and even this morning I have talked to him on the phone. Always very romantic, very concerned. Needs to get out of Ghana- send money. Wants to know limit on my credit card. Thank goodness I have not given him this info.

Now, can I meet the real man in the pictures? He looks so good.

I am an idiot!

[FrumpyBB]

Oh my God ...
Unfortunately, you can´t. The real man has no idea how much his pictures have been and are being stolen from his agency site. See in this thread alone how many scammers do that...

I´m very sorry to hear how much the Ghanaian scammer was able to steal from you. Please realize that all was a lie...that all is gone...try not to lose more. Cancel all contacts to him! Simply be silent. You don´t have to "explain" anything. This must feel like a shock to you now you have realized what it was all about....

[sachsengirl_d]

i found him on facebook as John Hopkins and Alexo Desmond

[cariot1965]

Now he is on youandme.com as samcilvil

[txgal]

Anyone knows his new email ? I wanna email and scare him.

honestsoulmate11@yahoo.com is the latest email for this scammer!

He's been instant messaging me for the past four days. Now goes by the name of Daniel Moore. Says he's from Corpus Christi, Texas; he's a widower with a 13 yr old son and they've been in West Africa for 2 wks with another 2 wks stay while he completes his work as software networking. Oh, and his son now has malaria but he's not yet asked me for money?!? His father died 20 yrs ago, he's an only child and his mother needs surgery (she lives in Washington) so you know the request of money is about to come up. However, I made it very clear I barely have any money since I live on Soc. Sec. Disability. Since telling him this, I've not heard from him but I did get a love poem from him!

And, of course he's told me he never believed in love at first sight until meeting me on "okcupid". He is such a joke! I had a feeling this guy wasn't for real and even said that to him.

Have fun emailing him

[txgal]

HONESTSOULMATE11@YAHOO.COM

yes! this guy also used this yahoo id on 'okcupid' when he found me but wanted to immediately go to yahoo messenger to start chatting there! He had also mentioned that he was a widower and had been for eight years but said he couldn't talk the death of his wife as it was still too difficult.

so he's still operating! and he gave me a ph#2 340170 285 94807.

"Daniel" told me within the first 48 hrs that he had fallen in love with me with the first sight of seeing me! After three days of chatting by IM, he tells me that his son is sick with malaria. Even though he's from Corpus Christi, he's in W. Africa to do software networking but will be home in two weeks and hopes to see me first before going to his home. He's had a dream of taking me to Australia to marry me on the beach. Of course, I've told him that I don't understand how he could feel this strongly about someone he's never met but he goes on with his bs and love poems.

After I happened to find his photos on another site, "MyDailyFlog", by mere accident, I let him know that I was on to him and I wasn't about to be scammed by him or anyone else. In the subject line of my email, I simply put...."SO MUCH FOR HONESTY?". But you know, it doesn't matter what we say, it doesn't bother them for they have no conscious.
