Hi,
this guy is not really a new one, he is here already but i was not able to find it.... i sent his pics already then, it could have been October. At that time his IP showed only Sunny Valley, he said that he is in US Army located in Iraq.

Originally he contacted me in WAYN using two different names:
David Hannet Moore age 56
and because i have deleted all i am not quite sure about the other one: David Moore? age 52, originally from Sweden ( :mrgreen: they should check what kind of names people have in different countries)
email for both was davelove191@yahoo.com

This is the only pic ( this is from the swedish guy)i still have, there was also others where he had uniform and was sitting behind a desk:

I have not answered his messages but yesterday he sent me an email and bingo:

Hi, Baby Bear. You're always lighting up my heart with the things you do and say. I feel so happy just being with you this way. You're my baby, and will forever be my baby. You will always be the love of my life, and please never give up, always have faith in yourself and you will gain the greatest gift of all, the gift of hope and love you righteously deserve. Every time I think of you my heart misses a beat. You're my theme or a dream! Every moment we share together we grow closer I'm simply hanging by a moment, waiting to see you again so you can hold me so tight that all else fades, I thought after you left you would fade away from my mind, but still, everyday I wake up dreaming of our time together. I will never forget you. I hope you still think of me too I love you with all that I am, all that I was and all that I will ever be. Please know that my love and I are inseparable and I would want it no other way and if time could express my love for you then it's forever and a day. I can't wait to be with you, see your smile, look in your eyes, feel your sweet touch, hear your perfect words and kiss your perfect lips. The way I feel about you some people call crazy, some call it insane, but I call it true love. I really love you.

Love always,

Your Dave

Wow! What an interesting website. A co-worker of mine shared the link with me this afternoon. I've known that my pictures were being used by scammers since April 2009 when I created a Facebook account. The criminals got hold of the photos by downloading them from the Webshots website. I posted several dozen photos there in 2005 and 2006 when I was deployed to Iraq with the US Army (I'm still on active-duty with the Army, but not in Iraq). I thought it was a good way for my family to see what I was up to during my deployment. I didn't realize that anyone in the world could download my pictures. Live and learn I guess. After hearing from several women on Facebook that my pictures were being used by scammers, I reported the matter to the Roanoke, Virginia office of the FBI. Special Agent Gillis was handling the case. She said there wasn't much they could do since the bad guys were probably in Africa. My purpose for writing today is to let all of you know that I'm aware of the scam and have taken steps to ensure that no additional pictures of me fall into the hands of these punks. I even deleted all of my photos from Facebook (just to be safe). By the way, I've been contacted by over 100 women on Facebook since 2009 telling me about the scam. For the last week, I've had a woman from South Korea sending me FB messages professing her love for me. She fell for one of the scammers and doesn't understand that it wasn't me talking to her. So, if any of you has been defrauded by someone using one or more of my pictures, feel free to find me on Facebook and tell me about it. To the extent that it'll do any good, I'm keeping track of the women affected by this. I'm only keeping their names by the way. If the folks at the FBI want to do more, they can contact you through Facebook. Best wishes, Gordon

Welcome ghannett. So sorry we had to meet under these circumstances, but we do like to hear from the real people behind the photos stolen by scammers. Some photo owners, btw, don't take it as well as you have.

We do our very best to convince victims not to contact the real person, but the victims who disregard our advice have generally been so badly lied to and betrayed that they sometimes behave irrationally, ignoring reality and grasping for the fantasy with which they have been deceived. We know how difficult it can be for all concerned, but the moderators and administration of this site stand firm nevertheless.

If I may pass on a little piece of advice for you to share with your fellow servicemen -- it is not difficult to watermark your photos. There are several free internet sites to which you can upload your photos and mark them so that they are rendered useless to scammers. Just be sure to put the watermark close to the face so that it can't be cropped out.
Help us keep scammers stupid Post his details here to warn others, then walk away without explanation. Confrontation alerts scammers & makes them change their identities...which makes all your hard work outdated. It messes with their minds if they don't know why you walked away.

I was one of the many unfortunate people scammed with Captain Hannett's photos. I was wise enough not to send money or other items only because I already knew that the military provides the items to the men that are being asked for in some of the scams, but I was scammed emotionally.
I feel so sorry for Captain Hannett and his family (and any other militart personel that have been abused in the same way) and what they must be going through and for all the women that have been tricked into falling in love with someone that was not real (the photos and the Captain are real) but the person(s) impersonating him are not.
The men in Nigeria and any of the other places that are doing this to the women of the United States need to be ware. A women scorned is bad enough, but scorn an American woman, and you better clear the path.
I do think that this type of imformation needs to be put out to the public be it on the news (T.V.) the newspapers, websites, any and every where to let women (and men) and especially the miitary personel be made aware of these sams and to watch for them when looking on dating sites, and for the military personel to be aware of what can happen with their photos and what they can do to protect them.
And a note to the women that have been hurt by this scam or any other scam like it, PLEASE do not allow these evil men to continue to control your life and prevent you from loving again. There is someone out there for each of you that will treat you with the love and respect WE all are seeking for and that was promised to each of us in the scams. The scammers will receive their just rewards, if not in this life, in the end. Keep looking for love as you will find it.

Welcome cowgirlathea2012. I'm terribly sorry you were scammed, but I admire your strength and concern for humanity.

Truth is, there have been quite a number of tv/newspaper/magazine and website efforts to warn the public - the administrators of this site work tirelessly to get the word out - but it's never enough. Of course it doesn't stop this group from trying.

I hear you about 'a woman scorned' ... but when it comes to dealing with scammers, that can be a very dangerous attitude. If you are in contact with a scammer using your real life details, do not ever mess around with them. They aren't likely to jump up off their internet cafe stool and come to hurt you, but they can still cause you personal and legal difficulties that you would definitely not want to deal with.

Your advice for other victims of scam is kind, compassionate ... and true, which just goes to prove that scam survivors like you are not only very intelligent, but are beautiful and strong people who care about others.

Ok, lets see if I can get this to work. I am going to post a picture that has already been previously posted on here from these scammers and then one exactly like it except with me (marked out of course) in the new one, and then another picture where they super imposed my picture into it. They got my picture off my profile on the dating site they made contact with me on. They are learning what to say and what to do so everyone needs to be careful and start taking advanage of the tools out there for IP and e-mail addresses and the tools to google the photos before you get too caught up in these guys. I think the picture search was the most helpful as they can reroute their IP addresses if they are really good. Good luck everyone, hopefully one day they will be stopped, but don't let them get to you, you all are special and will find a real someone, just hang in there.

You will find this tactic more being used by Russian scammers than Nigerian scammers. There, often the paid model / the stolen model´s image will hold a blank paper and the name detauils and best wishes will be entered by the scammer´s gang to have a personal picture for the victim.
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?
