On July 6,2009 on Match.com by Smooth2Smile with a wink. While I was on line he came on by their chat. We exchanged yahoo.com chat info (
r.martin58@yahoo.com) When I asked his name he said it was Reid Martins and yes it matches Charleyboy200's picture.
Here is his emails to me:Thanks for at least replying my mail. Without wasting time i am going to tell you more about me on here.
My name is Martins Reid, Born in Edinburgh Scotland and the only surviving child. Lost my dad and younger brother when i was age 7, years after mom died too. I moved to Kalamazoo the state of Michigan with my aunt when i was much younger. My aunt saw me through my education, went to England to study Engineering where i bagged B.Eng from Richmonds, an American University in London. I am a free lance contractor (Site Engineer to be exact). I am financially balance and my job is an interesting one. It's been 2years now since i started on my own. Although it's been a rough road to build a career of such a great magnitude but i thank God i am on it. I had worked with Turner construction in Texas and Florida.
Now talking about "FRIENDS" in quote. I was betrayed by my closest, best friend rather. I caught so calaled friend having sex with the woman i was suppose to get married to, just 2weeks prior to our wedding day. I was devastated, detroyed and i felt like shooting them at that point. But as a very calm and matured man that i am i just walked away and let it pass. A relationship i built for more than 5yrs. Anyway, thats past tense i'd rather have me concentrate more on my present life and see what my future holds or that lead me.
I am very new to this online dating stuff and would love to explore and see what comes out of it. I think i am ready to get my life back and start from some where. I hope to retire, and settle down finally with the woman of my heart.
I love to have fun by way of relaxing. My likes are as follows: Reading, going to the cinemas to watch movies, swimming, skiing, camping, vine tasting, sight seeing, traveling, cooking etc. I dis-like lies and liars. My favorite color is Green. I am a very open minded person, serious but filled with good sense of humor. I am Handsome, smart, intelligent, sensual, loving and a MONOGAMOUS man. I love to cuddle and be cuddled too. I love the out doors, holding hands and taking a walk with my woman.
It's rather unfortunate that i'll be leaving the states come Friday night or this weekend to work on a project. It's a 4-6 weeks project so I'll be back by the end of August 2009. Guess we can get to know each other before i leave and more while exchanging pleasantries both on emails and chat, how about that? Here is my phone number if you wish to give me a call before i leave. Though, I have added your id to my yahoo messenger so we can chat when we get the chance before i leave.
I hope i have not bored you with all these, i shall let you read this and reply back if you are still interested in knowing more about me.
Have a wonderful rest of your day.
Be good and take care of yourself...
Reid Martins...
Second reply:
Thanks for yet another prompt email and i must say i am so sorry i forgot to include my phone number in the other mail. I guess i was too excited to get the email to your as fast as possible that i skip that part in writing but had it in my head to write. lol.
It rather unfortunate that i have to leave but what can i say. I am even lucky to have you corresponding. I had created that account on match about a month ago, used it for more than a week and never got to any one serious. It was strange at times when you try to start a communication and all you could find is someone on the other side who only wanted a fling between the both of you. It was very much common among the younger aged women and i was almost frustrated. I had given up hopes about the online thing but decided to try again. Ain't i lucky this time that women above the ages of 40 are more real, serious and optimistic about what they want for the rest of their lives? I guess it the maturity in them and their age that tells it all. If I'm not mistaken my account on match may have been deactivated and i wish us well in this new friendship.
I will be leaving for West Africa, Lagos Nigeria come Monday the 13th as there are no flight(s) available for Friday - Sunday by Air France. Below is my flight Itinerary for your perusal

Third reply on July 9,2009:
Thanks for yet another prompt email, how are you doing and how did your day go? Can you please tell me about your experience about this online dating stuff. We seem to be looking for the same thing and i would not like to blow it. What i tell you about me is what you get. I am a very straight and precise. I've got no time to waste. As you already said that past relationship always seem weird to speak of.
I understand you're gonna be busy until after August 8th. I will love to keep in touch and i wish same from you too. In our busy schedules we can make or create the time to catch up with each other and i wish we had met each other before now it would have been fun to go to Africa with you. Although, this is my very first time of traveling this far and i do not know anything or much about Africa but the most interesting thing is to know that Internet services are available also but not in all places in Africa as it is here in the states. I will update you asap when i get there.
You really seem a very nice, fun and heart loved woman. I'd very happy if you give me the chance to explore your heart i bet you'll never regret it. I have plenty of love to share and give. I love to cuddle and be cuddled too. Again i want to tell you again that i am a very MONOGAMOUS man.
I'd wait till i hear back from you... Have a wonderful sleep and dream about what we can share together now and for the future to come...
Be good, nice and take care of yourself...
Reid Martins...
Fourth reply:
I want to let you know too that i did really enjoy our chat too and wish to keep in touch more and more. I am so sorry my reply is coming rather late. I hope you understand that my schedule getting pack and making the last minute arrangement and preparations are taking my time but I let you know that you are also in my mind. I love the way you make use of your words, it's beautiful and well expressed when we chatted.
I really do want to keep in touch and continue this communication and feel free to call me about anytime you so wish...
Till we get the chance to talk again..
Ciao..
Martins Reid..
Last reply:
have missed you too. I look up for you each and every day since the last time we chatted. I am due for the Airport at 3am latest and i am exhausted already. I will email you a pic of me later ok. I had to remove my profile since i have started communicating with you and i'm leaving for Africa. I did not see to it as any reason having it activate again.
Anyway, i am glad i have you to commune with...
Reid...
Please know I was chatting with Charley/Reid both in the evening and morning the first few days. Thankfully, I was forwarding his emails to another friend who realised this was a scam. I looked to verify all the info he had given me ie. Turner Construction, phone (which is supposed to be a landline in Miami. Weird because he said, he lived in Thousand Oaks, California) and college. He has done his homework. Decided to call the phone number given me but did not want to use my own number. I asked a guy friend if he would place the call but first googled and found this site. I have blocked him on my chat and phone. Waiting to see if he will send a picture. Can't wait to tell him he has been had! JERK! Too bad the cute guy in the picture will never know how many women think he's a cutie!
