Re: SCAMMER NAMED MICHAEL GRANT (NOW JOHNRAM2010)

Postby doobedoo7 » Mon Mar 08, 2010 1:25 am

He is now on SingleParentMeet.com going by userid JOHNRAM2010. I have not chatted with him, but he sent me messages on the site. I was suspicious right away from the picture. Same pics posted already here, the headshot with the white shirt. He's claiming to be from Clearfield, PA. 40 years old. He says he has black hair and black eyes. He may have wanted to look closer at the picture he used as the eyes are blue. Well maybe he meant his pupils! Also kind of leery when I see someone on SingleParentMeet that has never been married and has no children. Thanks for posting the pic, I found it right away using scammdigger.

:roll: OMG this guy is everywhere. I just talked to him two days ago. I have been deceived by imposters before on dating sites, but it still hurts no matter what. These guys should be put to shame for being the preditors they are. God bless us.

Both of these numbers are no real UK ones. They are follow me numbers which anonymously redirect your calls (at an expensive rate!) to wherever the scammer really is. They abuse it a lot when they want to appear to be in the UK.
Watch out for the +44 70 numbers. They turn up in every other thread in White Males forum here. Scam sign!
Please try your best to block ALL your scammer´s still incoming messages and calls!
