Hi G, just feel like telling you more about me, im colonel kelvin from liverpool but works with the us army. a very good friend of mine got me started on the site as a way of finding my soul mate.. You ll need to know that I m serving the US Army and currently on deployment here in Iraq.. I am also a former US Marine infantry man, having served 8 active years with different infantry units, from Camp Pendleton, CA. (1stbattalion, 9th Marine Regiment, and 2nd battalion, 1st Marine Regiment)and Camp Lejeune, NC (3rd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment) I have been to a bunch of places in the world, some of them hot spots, and continue to do so today. I am privileged to have served with highly professional individuals in the Marines, and the tradition continues now in the army..I m fortunate to command a small, very specialized unit and get to interact with many guys on the tip of the spear: US service

members of all branches and ranks, Coalition forces, contractors and locals. I feel I ve got a perspective not often seen in the media. Seeing as Im heading back home soon, that also gives me a different perspective.I generally socialize outside of the military community since Im divorced and my peers are pretty much all married with children. I am an avid athlete, having played most sports at one time or another. These days I mostly play rugby and lift weights.And someday I ll move back home to and be able to surf, paddle and dive like I love to do.I am not in a hurry to find the love of my life,but i dont want to wait for months and months.Life is too short to spend it alone and the passion,beauty and the excitement of being with the one you love is so wonderful.what i want is to find someone that is right for me and understand me,what bothers me most in this life and what is inside it and how you
feel,i want to meet Someone that is romantic, serious and down to earth at the same time. a woman who likes to laugh and enjoy the outdoors, who truly wants to be a wife and believes in the sanctity of marriage, a woman who is honest, loyal, trustworthy and totally devoted to her man. Someone who likes to be flirted with and will allow me to kiss, hug and hold her hand in public. Someone who is willing to try new things.. I will love to know more about you also and hoping to read from you.........ttyl


Kelvin cares

he is back again - new email and new picture
This piece of excrement is not back again. He's never left. He's a repeat customer around here. I'm sure there's many more of his profiles already posted. He'll scam 'til he dies . . . which will be soon if prayers are answered.

'He' by the way is a composite from a gang of hoodlums who scam, lie, cheat and steal for a living. We all know it will catch up to them sooner than later. They're screwed.
If your question isn't answered in the FAQ, please message a green Moderator or red Admin. We need to know.

Hehehe...this one is my favorite. He's the nasty piece of work who scammed me. What bothers me the most is that he's actually not very smart ... somewhat nervous since we got through with him last time though. Doesn't like jokers very much.

In fact, the name he's using right now we gave him - along with his email account - when I sent him out to scam Pinky.
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.

Hello xxx
Thanks for your message .let me quickly tell you more about myself,im a man with one lovely daughter her name is Alexis, work as military doctor even am in Iraq now on call,but planing to come back home soon and start a lovely happy family home. My personality is outgoing and I have a good sense of humor. I am a kind and very tenderhearted person. I am loving, in fact I sometimes think that I love to deeply when I love someone. I am a very honest person. I am too trusting at times and I am loyal to my companion and friends. But, I do have a streak of impatience at times which is not a good trait, but I am doing much, much better at being patient. It takes a lot of prayer for me in that area. Oh, and I am a romantic at heart. I love romance. I am not into the partying scene anymore since I started going to church about 12 years ago. And, honestly, I really don't miss the drinking and partying life at all. I never was happy in it. And, I don't drink, smoke, drugs or curse. The only thing is, I really do love to dance. There is a place where you can go dance without the drinking, smoking, cursing and all that going on. I like that. It's terrible that a lot of men curse and drink far worse than i could imagine. I think a man should act like a man. I want to be respected for being a man. I like to act, dress and look like a guy I want you to know all about me but i will have to stop here and be waiting for your response and i will be looking forward to read from you as soon as possible take good care of yourself and remain blessed.Please send more of your pics to me.
Thanks
Rodney

Postby kimmy2973 » Mon Feb 07, 2011 5:44 am

Ok so I just joined that mate one site, this guy started messaging me...never done the online dating thing before so I was already feeling a little werid about it. anyway, googles the guys name and this romance scam site pops up...I mean all this just happened within the last couple hours. oh and btw its mark rodney duras. he sent me the same messages and pics that showed up on this site. In the meantime he is still trying to talk to me and I am just going along with it. I mean really? Dude says hes in love with me!!! Guess that is how they work, but I found it really strange that he is already talking about marriage less than an hour into our conversation. suggestions please?

you shouldn't google names, you should google email addresses. 2 different unrelated people can share the same name, but they cannot share email address.

what to do? READ!!! Read this site, information, how to spot a scammer, etc... We have a big information section, Frequently asked Questions topics. You didn't even read your Welcome PM with info!!! You googled somebody's name, found something similar (not even EXACT match!! we don't have anybody listed with this exact name: rodney mark buras, I checked in google! we have "mark rodney buras", but it is not the same) and immediately jumped to post: "what to do?"

This site has almost 30,000 members. Imagine if everybody would just jump in and post their EVERY contact on a dating site? Why not slow down and do a bit of reading? :roll:
SCAM FREE DATING SITE

I am responsible for what I say. I'm not responsible for what you understand.

he sent me the same messages and pics that showed up on this site.
If you let us know what thread the pics are in, then we can merge this with it. Names mean nothing. They even steal the names from previous victims or even famous people. This is why we can't go by names alone.

yes I did mean mark rodney buras. And I apologize if you thought I was jumping to conclusions, I am COMPLETELY new to all this...seriously. I just recently started using a computer for something other than work. I dont know how to move around on this site very well, it is all new to me and very very confusing. I have never posted on a forum, blog or anything else.
