Can you post his email address/emails to you with headers/IP, chats phone numbers?
Do you have a profile name or link?

My name is Schuster Edwards. My friends just call me Eddie, so you can call me Eddie. LOL Just Kidding! I'm the kind of person you either love or hate, there is usually no in between. I can be somewhat of a hard *** but down deep I'm just a big softie. I've been to war, and I've seen the effects it has on people. Because of this I've learned to value what I have, and cherish the people in my life, friends, family, even acquaintances. I try to live each day as if it's my last, and still have hope for the future. What else can I say except OORAH and God Bless America!!
my idea of a great date:
I am a caring, faithful and supportive man who is seeking my life long partner.I have a great sense of humor and am looking for someone that is serious minded that wants to build a solid, nurturing relationship. No Games ................. just honesty!
the person I would like to meet:
I'm pretty easy to get along with. I'm looking for someone who has the desire to want to continue to improve her life as well. I want someone who is not going to be afraid to try new things and see what else is out there. Motivated and just plan fun to be around. I'm not a judgemental person and I am willing to get to know you if you are willing to get to know me.


Hello,Was looking through your profile and loved it,Would love to get to know more about you and chat with you.I am not always on here.You could contact me at sgt.edwards9090@yahoo.com.Would get back to you asap.

edwardselgin@yahoo.com

This is the contact info I was given and sent 3 pictures that I found in the thread. I have been doing research for 3 days trying to find something on scamming involving Staff Sergeant Edwards with the pictures I was sent. And, finally, I found photos here. I was contacted on SeniorPeopleMeet.com with a pop-up on 2/16/12. I have since found a profile on there, edwards12, with another photo I see in this thread. I sent them information about the scam, but the profile is still there. I traced the IP address to Sunnyvale, California. Unfortunately, before finally having some success in my reasearch I went off on the guy and so probably cannot be any help in tracking him down now.

I feel so bad for our Soldiers who are having their identity stolen.

james edwards: sgt.jamesedwards989@yahoo.com

Postby RussellMerlosse » Thu Mar 01, 2012 11:38 am

*sorry for my bad english, i’m not American*

just wanted to say i met ‘james edwards’ on okfreedating.net
his email was sgt.jamesedwards989@yahoo.com

this ‘james’ said that he :
-lives in UK
-was soldier in Afghanistan
-has daughter, 13 y/o
-lost his wife (cancer)
-we chatted for abut 2 weeks, once on phone

long story short : he said that he would be going to south-africa to visit his sick uncle, kamiel, who lives there. he couldn’t go right away, because he had to find a place for his daughter to stay. he than asked me sent money to his nephew in africa,so the nephew could travel to the uncle in the meantime. becuse there is something wrong with james bankaccount and he can’t sent it himself,he asked me. he would be paying me back asap.
i sent the money and when i asked when he was going to sent me back he kept changing subject. he than started to find other reasons to ask me money. i started to worried and googled. when I saw pictures I stopped messaging.

this is 1st email he sent me:
Hi, my name is James Edwards and am 32 years/old. Have served in Afghanistan for three years and am now back in UK taking care of my daughter. Am strong believer, follow Gods work and praise blessing he gave me.
Saw your picture and asked myself; what can I possibly say to this epitome of beauty? Something about your profile made me think that maybe you are sole interpreter of my profound life.
I ask God that you will message me back.

Regards,
James

Very well done :)

Sorry to hear you have lost money to this anonymous Nigerian criminal before though; breaking up contact now is the only way to move away from this experience.
Please try your best to block ALL your scammer´s still incoming messages and calls!

What is all this? => The FAQ

The scammers vs. Why is "he" still doing it?

Why is alerting the man in the pictures DANGEROUS?

about myself:
Well I would describe myself as a kind, generous, easy-going person. I love to laugh and enjoy funny situations. I enjoy traveling and the adventures of the outdoors. Getting away is important because I think everyone should see what else is out there. I also like going to the movies, theater, concerts, museums or a nice restaurant.I am a very optimistic person and consider that there are no hopeless situations in the life of every person. As for me I always try to find some positive moments and aspects in everything that happens around me! I prefer to be active in life and that's why I try to be engaged in all the kinds of active rest! I am not used to sitting at one place and make no head way. And there is one more thing that I adore - bath!My favorite times of the year are spring for the green leaves and the flowers I get to plant and the misty rain showers, summer for the suntan and free time it allows me, fall for the smell in the air, the beautiful scenery and of course Halloween, winter for that first snow and the crackling fire in the fireplace.A very outgoing person who enjoys laughter in my life be it a movie comedy, an evening at a comedy club, Saturday Night Live TV or just an amusing CD. I think a fun way to spend an evening would be to dine at a cozy restaurant which has a reputation of serving good seafood and then spend the rest of the romantic evening of dancing cheek-to-cheek as well as swing/fast music.

messages:

Hello ...how are you doing today ? i hope all is well with you ..You look so charming in your photo, I adore your profile so much.. it will be great to know more about you. I am Edwards , divorced and looking for someone lovely like you lol. You definitely got your appearance so attracting and appealing. I guess nobody is going to skip your profile without sending you a message. I can see sincerity in you. You look far younger than your age. Is what you have on this site a correct statement of your age? When was your photo taking? but anyway I decided to give it a shot by dropping you a line as there is no harm in trying. Relationship is not a matter of age differences or the distance. Do not think of the distance between us.contact me and lets see where the roads of fate lead us. kindly right me back
..and maybe we could start as being friends..and sharing each others thought.I'm sure you would find me interesting if you give me a trial... . I will be waiting to hear back from you. I wish you a great time . Take care..Edwards


Good Morning My Lady...How are you doing today i hope all is well with you....You put a big smile on my face by being so open to write to me...Yes i will love to have a chat with you on yahoo IM just to get to know more about each other and see what the road of faith has for us....This is my email Ed_camp55@yahoo.com i will be waiting for yours hope to hear from you soon my lady....Take care and have a nice day ...Edwards

More about myself: I am pretty independent and would never smother my mate. I think that even though you're within a relationship, you should maintain your own individuality and be a stronger, better person as a result of the support and love of another. I am also very neat and organized and appreciate those qualities in others. I love someone who can express herself well verbally, and on paper, and isn't afraid to open up. People have always said that I am non-judgmental and easy to talk to about anything. I have to be a good listener and enjoy learning what makes people "tick" I am a very affectionate person and love big hugs and deep kisses. I like doing little, fun things to spark my partner's day and put a smile on her face. I really am just looking for someone who is kind, warm and fun and not afraid of wherever "the journey" may lead....
I am looking for an upbeat, energetic, positive individual who has a "the glass is half full" approach to life. I definitely need someone with a good sense of humor who can laugh at me and at herself. Communication is very important to me and I seek someone who is a straight shooter and doesn't play head games. It makes a relationship much less complicated and more comfortable. I appreciate romance and love deep, warm kisses and affection. My friends and family are very important to me and I love putting together fun events and entertaining. I love meeting new people and appreciate outgoing people who don't shy away from making new friends. I love exercising and would ideally love to share biking, skiing, hiking with my partner.......
