This guy contacted me through Plenty of Fish and I stopped talking to him after a few emails as I suspected he was a scammer.
Here is the correspondence from June 2017:
June 18
Good morning, how is your weekend going? The dating site is new to me and i have only been on it for just about a week. how about you? l m happy to read from you, sorry for not responding earlier, something i do not want to bore you with now….lol hope you’re having a great day? I m completely new to me and i was told and equally read some successful stories....I have the feelings that we are going to make a good couple but dunno for now can't wait to find-out...How does that sounds? Big joke of the year? lol
If i will describe myself i did selectively use my words as follow...that i can adapt to any situation. I thrive in a fluctuating environment and I transform unexpected obstacles into stepping stones for achievements. Consistently innovates to create value. I find opportunities where other people see none: I turn ideas into projects, and projects into serial success. is considered to be ‘fun.’ I believe that we are way more productive when we are working with people with which we enjoy spending time.
.I Am a fun loving, cool, simple and outgoing kinda guy.....I enjoy what life has to offer like cool fresh air, the flowers and natural water.....
I understand that ones possessions do not determine the individual, so I don't seek someone because they have neither do I avoid someone because they don't have. I'm just seeking someone who believes in unity, co-operation, truth, love, dedication, partnership, trust. Someone who knows love and is able to recognize it when it's present....Though i have had ups and downs in my life still am determined to success by putting the past behind.
My six years old relationship ended when i caught my fiancé with my best friend, she tried to come back and blamed the world for it, it was hard for me. I only just got her engaged before she did that, it hurt but it was time for me to move on and it's over a year now. I believe there is a woman for everyman out there and the same goes to a woman. I joined online dating about a week about a week ago and got so much emails that i have to hide my profile, I think we can make the difference but i don't want to be too busy i will wait till we meet.
I live in St. Catharines. I resigned from BP oil &Gas to set my own consulting firm after i was transferred to Toronto from Quebec about a year ago. , though i work from home at the moment, I am selling off a property i inherited from my late Dad in Dubai to buy a house and space for my company.
I love my job, My job is to Develop/Programe software to Test or analyst geological samples, crude oil, or minerals to detect presence of petroleum, gas, or mineral deposits indicating potential for exploration or production or to determine physical or chemical properties to ensure that products meet quality standards.
Most importantly i am more happier these days building bridges "meaning" my clients, working on different company proposals and I am meeting a client at St W, Toronto this weekend. i got a message that he around on vacations he is a top executives at Dana Oil and Gas, he should be able to influence my proposal and hopefully work with him. No venture No success.
I am dual citizenship Italian and Canadian, I was born in Bayern Munch, my Dad was in Canadian army, before he retired to realtor and my Mum Italian and they both meet in Germany when my Dad was on NATO Deployment as Royal Canadian Army. Yes i have a 13 years old daughter she lives and school in Italy she is going to come to Canada for her Uni, her my dead since she was 3, i left her with my mum when i got a transfer to Quebec. She love Italy and she wants to learn Italian values lol. My Dad passed on 2008 my mum is a cancer survival. Growing up was beautiful at the same time tough as the only child, i learn to love people and treat them right.
listening to music, praying with kids, riding on my vintage& racing motorcycles, reading, going to the gym, cooking, eating out somewhere nice.The most beautiful combination of these things is found in women, If its creative and different i'd love to do it with her. Well i don't know if am saying too much at the moment.
Tell me about yourself, love life, dislike and likes. About your family your mom and Dad it will be nice to know. I am proud of my background.
Have a wonderful day looking forward to hear from you x

How was your day, i hope you had a wonderful day, sorry i am writing at this time i came to Toronto this morning to see a client, i got to know on Sunday that he has been around on vacations and i wanted to see him though i have not meet him before. He is one of the top executives in one of the companies i proposed to be their external technical consultant. I could not meet him today but he promised to schedule meeting for me tomorrow and i am ready to wait till i meet him because it will save me a lot and he could possible help me to push my agenda faster.
Yes i am looking for a relationship, but i am not going to rush into it, a journey of many miles begins with a step and that is what we have just started ok. If we want to make it work good we can make it work and see what future hold.
it will be nice to learn some more let me have your number if you want to talk on the phone or text chat.

I thought you have changed you mind because i told you was travelling. I want to get to know you more. I sent you a text that i was travelling to the UK to finalize the selling of the house i inherited from my late dad in Oxforshire UK. Since then i haven't heard from you. I am glad you get back maybe the message didnt deliver i wouldn't know. It was impromptu.
June 24
Good to hear from you, i was wondering what was wrong. I didn't know the text never came through BTW i thought i have said something wrong lol. I equally want to get to know you, get acquitted and possibly have future together.
It's not been easy since i arrived here, because my bag got missing and all effort to trace it has been invain and this has really affected me because all my valuables are in the back including the house property documents that i want i came here to sell. Who ever that stolen the bag while i was trying to use the rest room left me strip naked and as i type i have not had anything since morning because all my cards where in my wallet which i put at the side bag to use the rest room.
His following correspondence was to ask if he sent me the key to his place would I go and get the property documents he had there and to send those to him. I dropped the conversation after that and he deleted his Plenty of Fish profile. Not sure if he's an African scammer or not but sending info in case.
