for anyone who comes cross the name William L. Spalding is a scam he told me he was from the military and he was over sea and that he would be coming home and he would but he need to stop first in London and the truth is this were he and a group of people who are doing all of the scam are at in London. And he said he had a son name John O. Spalding and the truth there is no son under that name. and he scam me for the amount of 60,000. so if anyone wants more information on this man my email is chontales5@yahoo.com don’t believe this man

Do they think we are all idiots???? I recognize 1 or 2 that I figured were scammers-they can’t even put a sentence together properly nor can they spell & they get caught up in their stories!

I got a guy here claming to be a Sgt McDonald Peterson, he has asked for money and to my stupidity i have sent him some. I have now found his pictures in your site under the name Sgt Patrick McDonald and am very sad to find this. I became aware of this scam because a friend has paid for his best friend to come home and still hasnt turned up to meet her. I wish there was a way to get these Nigerian guys to pay but from what i have found out this is unlikely.

There is another scam artist going around as sergant first class Smith Michael Brown stating that he is in the army and deployed. Watch out he is looking for money and exspensive gifts. He states that he is divorced and and has a 18 year old son who lives with his parents from Washington state. So watch out

PLEASE ADD RANDY LINGO TO THE LIST. I WISH I HAD KEPT THE PHOTOS TO SEND YOU BUT LAST NIGHT AFTER I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE SCAM I DELETED THE 76 MESSAGES, POEMS, LOVE SONGS AND 5 PHOTOS HE HAD SENT ME. SAME OLD STORY, WANTED TO VISIT ME NEEDED MONEY FOR LEAVE APPLICATION, ALSO WANTED MY DRIVERS LICENCE AND PASSPORT. FAKE LETTER FROM GENERAL COLLINS IN KANDAHAR ASKING ME TO SEND THE DOCS AND MONEY TO HIM AND HE WOULD APPROVE HIS LEAVE TO COME AND HAVE A HOLIDAY WITH ME. LOTS OF MISTAKES, SPELLING, GRAMMAR, LIKE HE WASNT TAKING IN MY EMAILS AND HE WAS TALKING TO SOMEONE ELSE. MUST BE CONFUSING FOR THE POOR “DEARS” SITTING IN THEIR HOT SWEATY LITTLE COMPUTER ROOM SOMEWHERE IN NIGERIA AND THEY FORGET THAT SUSAN HAD LONG HAIR NOT SHORT AND JENNIFERS SONS NAME WAS BILL NOT TONY AND SO ON AND SO ON. ANYWAY, HAPPY ENDING FOR ME, NO DOCUMENTS OR MONEY CHANGED HANDS. THE REAL RANDY LINGO HAS A PROBLEM NOW AS THEY ALSO SENT ME COPIES OF HIS PASSPORT, DRIVERS LICENCE AND CARE CARD FROM CANADA. HOPE HE CATCHES UP WITH THEM SOON AND HE HAS HIS RIFLE WITH HIM.

hi i am from Australia,recently i was contacted via a dating site by someone claiming to be Sgt Robert Scheels a US airforce man stationed in afganistan i have checked to see if there was such a person and found there is,i don’t know if he is on active duty right now but he served in iraq years ago for which he was awarded a combat metal several years later and the photos of him recieving his metal where sent to me,they even used his real name,they are so convincing its easy to be sucked in by these smooth workers, i came so close to sending money thank god my postmaster opened my eye’s to the fact that i was being scammed before he took my money.I’d already had my doubt’s so i did more research to find out as much as i could,emails coming from south africa,kuwait as well as different parts of america that convinced me and i sent him one last email to tell him what scum they were to use innocent people for their own gain its a crime an i hope karma come’s to them in one way or another.

Could you please mark the photos being used by scammers with something like “used by scammers” across the face so they can’t lift them off of this website *again* and use them against people?

Thanks.

Is there anyone out there that can check the Army to see if someone is actually real? I know the DOD has a website but they need the SS#. I really don’t expect someone to just give me their SS#. Help!

Dear Ladies and Men,

I am writing on behalf of myself for what have happen to me…

PLEASE READ ALL INFORMATION cause I myself was use from a scammer. He took me for $4000.00 and plus meaning all the Western Union cost and etc..

He was posing as Col. Peter S Petronzino and I fell deeply in love with him. Yes, he was that damn good of a scammer.

We chat for months and when I went to the airport to pick him up and coming from a family that have and still is serving in the service I had ways to contact to find out if he was on his flight. Guess what?? You got it. He was not on the the flight nor was his name on the list at the airport or any of the airlines in Texas.

I stood at the airport looking like a damn fool on my bithday holding a sign for him welcoming him home….

After that, I did not hear from him for a few days and when I did I cuss him out one ear to the other.

He told me that he was back in the States but because the General and what the other department that does the retirement papers (which I still have all the fake papers from day one, letters from the General and EVERTHING) made a mistake cause it was in my name and they would not release him til I signed a marriage certif. and again I had to pay for it. Question??? Why could he go to the ATM, bank or what ever and pay????

LMAO, I told him to go to hell.. cause I knew he was a scammer.

Did I continue to keep in touch with him? Yes, I did cause I wanted to know know about him and I did. He told me he is a scammer and how he does it and why… I was trying to see if I could get some of my money back but what a joke!! He still lied with all his stories and I told him to go to F***ing hell and that I hope a pray that he gets caught and burn in HELL.

So my point is?? DO NOT TRUST ANYONE on MySpace, Facebook and others including date sites cause they are there and out to get you and me.

I have learn my lesson and if I get an email the first thing that I do is read and study.. Sure not everyone is a good speller esp me due to my hearing impairment but I learned the hard way and it has cost me deeply…

BEWARE OF ALL DOCUMENT SENT TO YOU AND HAVE A MILITARY PERSONNEL READ IT BEFORE SIGNING AND SENDING MONEY!!!!!!!

As far as calls, I dated a man that is in the Army and we met through Match.com. I gave him my number and it DOES come across on you caller ID United States. AND YES THEY CAN CALL YOU… Do what I did and call the number back and they will let you know if the call is for real or a lie… AND DO NOT fall for a phone service cause it is a scam… Trust me, I know.

Beware of EVERYTHING…..

I was raise as a military daughter and because of this I feel I have let my family down and the men and women that are serving for our country…

As I can say for now is PLEASE BE CAREFUL CAUSE THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU OR YOUR KIDS OR FAMILY…

Sunshine

P.S. Due to the ASSHOLE that got me I am now working 2 jobs just to get myself out of what he has done to me… IT SUCKS!!!!!

Would like to inform all to be aware of scammer using the Title of Sergeant Major Aaron Ramos Edwards. He is using email under ronramos101@yahoo.com also has a 2 pages on Facebook. Under the name of Aaron Jay Ramos and Aaron Ramos Edwards. Has a friend called John Smith both are based in Kabul. These are scammers using US Army innocent soldiers. Please take care!

Yoko!

Hi Girls A few months ago I also got a letter from Mac Donald !!!! He thought that was one name. His pic and letter ( almost exactly the same as Mimi’s letter ). Check it out on CJ’s Wall of Shame. I will continue to torment them every chance I get.Keep it up girls. We are more of a thorn in their side than you may think.

Hi All,

After reading all these I am feeling much better. Watch out for SGT. Steven Bobby, Combat Engineering Dept, Weapons Repair, stationed in Kahbul, Afghanistan. Lost his wife to cancer 2 years ago and looking to fill his empty heart with love.

This lowest of lows, scammed me out of $800.00 but I got sus. when he asked for more for flight payments and was able to stop the payment. I was told by the Military Dept. at The US embassy here in Australia that it was a scam.

When confronted he played the guilt card and told me I didn’t trust him and had broken his heart. Then he got nasty. He uses Yahoo messenger id stevbobby@yahoo.com
facebook email is stevbobby02@yahoo.com
The below link will show you the identity he is using.
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=100305806715181&set=a.100225246723237.239.100002072850790

If anyone out there recognises him please let me know. I’d be interested to know.

I want you all to know, that you are all intelligent, rational people who have been scammed by some very clever people. These people are so good at what they do and when emotions are involved all rational thinking and reason goes out the window. So girls (and guys) Stand tall, heads held high and keep up the fight against these scumbags. Keep posting whatever you can find. We need to raise awareness to minimize the damage these lowlifes can do.

Cheers All
Too Trusting

Hi there my name is Cherie I have been getting emails to my Yahoo account, from a George Ray Colvin. Iam abit worried about if he’s a scammer or not. He said that he’s in the Third Infantry Division USA. He said he was stationed in Nigeria??? I dont if this is to be true. Please help.

My mother was almost taken by this guy on Facebook…Sgt Michael Wells. There’s more on him at: http://www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=22522

Re: Sgt Michael Wells – Military Scammer

Following are some of the emails that will be sent by the scammer pretending to be Michael;

A prayer for you..

At this time of the rising tide,Always remember God is by your side,guiding you through that steep hill,while you let him do his will.Place your burdens in his hands,
though might be as grains of sands,trust in him and he will do the rest,for he alone, knows what is best.

Joke for you…

A large, powerfully-built guy meets a woman at a bar. After a number of drinks, they agree to go back to his place. As they are making out in the bedroom, he stands up and starts to undress. After he takes his shirt off, he flexes his muscular arms and says, “See that, baby? That”s 1000 pounds of dynamite!” She begins to drool. The man drops his pants, strikes a bodybuilder”s pose, and says, referring to his bulging thighs, “See those, baby? That”s 1000 pounds of dynamite!” She is aching for action at this point. Finally, he drops his underpants, and after a quick glance, she grabs her purse and runs screaming to the front door. He catches her before she is able to leave and asks, “Why are you in such a hurry to go?” She replies, “With 2000 pounds of dynamite and such a short fuse, I was afraid you were about to blow!”

Just came back from the patrol,sat on the bed with my short on thinking how it would be to have you lying by my side……

I know the signal sucks but we can get to know more about each other.

Your Army Man
Mike

The embers glowed softly, and in their dim light,
I gazed round the room and I cherished the sight.
My wife was asleep, her head on my chest,
My daughter beside me, angelic in rest.
Outside the snow fell, a blanket of white,
Transforming the yard to a winter delight.

The sparkling lights in the tree I believe,
Completed the magic that was Christmas Eve.
My eyelids were heavy, my breathing was deep,
Secure and surrounded by love I would sleep.
In perfect contentment, or so it would seem,
So I slumbered, perhaps I started to dream.

The sound wasn’t loud, and it wasn’t too near,
But I opened my eyes when it tickled my ear..
Perhaps just a cough, I didn’t quite know, Then the
sure sound of footsteps outside in the snow.
My soul gave a tremble, I struggled to hear,
And I crept to the door just to see who was near.

Standing out in the cold and the dark of the night,
A lone figure stood, his face weary and tight.
A soldier, I puzzled, some twenty years old,
Perhaps a Marine, huddled here in the cold.
Alone in the dark, he looked up and smiled,
Standing watch over me, and my wife and my child.

“What are you doing?” I asked without fear,
“Come in this moment, it’s freezing out here!
Put down your pack, brush the snow from your sleeve,
You should be at home on a cold Christmas Eve!”
For barely a moment I saw his eyes shift,
Away from the cold and the snow blown in drifts..

To the window that danced with a warm fire’s light
Then he sighed and he said “Its really all right,
I’m out here by choice. I’m here every night.
“It’s my duty to stand at the front of the line,
That separates you from the darkest of times.

No one had to ask or beg or implore me,
I’m proud to stand here like my fathers before me.
My Gramps died at ‘ Pearl on a day in December,”
Then he sighed, “That’s a Christmas ‘Gram always remembers.”
My dad stood his watch in the jungles of ‘ Nam ‘,
And now it is my turn and so, here I am.

I’ve not seen my own son in more than a while,
But my wife sends me pictures, he’s sure got her smile.
Then he bent and he carefully pulled from his bag,
The red, white, and blue… an American flag.
I can live through the cold and the being alone,
Away from my family, my house and my home.

I can stand at my post through the rain and the sleet,
I can sleep in a foxhole with little to eat.
I can carry the weight of killing another,
Or lay down my life with my sister and brother..
Who stand at the front against any and all,
To ensure for all time that this flag will not fall..”

“So go back inside,” he said, “harbor no fright,
Your family is waiting and I’ll be all right.”
“But isn’t there something I can do, at the least,
“Give you money,” I asked, “or prepare you a feast?
It seems all too little for all that you’ve done,
For being away from your wife and your son.”

Then his eye welled a tear that held no regret,
“Just tell us you love us, and never forget.
To fight for our rights back at home while we’re gone,
To stand your own watch, no matter how long.
For when we come home, either standing or dead,
To know you remember we fought and we bled.
Is payment enough, and with that we will trust,
That we mattered to you as you mattered to us..”

PLEASE, would you do me the kind favor of sending this to as many
people as you can? Easter will be coming soon and some credit is due to our
U.S service men and women for our being able to celebrate these
festivities. Let’s try in this small way to pay a tiny bit of what we owe. Make people
stop and think of our heroes, living and dead, who sacrificed themselves for us.

Mike

Hello tina

chantal

Sgt.Aaron Ramos, aka Leonard Ramos, aka Ron Ramos, same guy operating under all of the above names. Ron Ramos on Military Dating site as well as camp Shelby Singles dating site and undr Military cupid site. I have pictures of him in military uniform, with a friend in military uniform as well, could this be the friend. Not sure how to post these pictures on here for all to see. Definitely looks like the Aaron Ramos photo’s on here. Tried to scam, but I was already onto him, same sob story…What gets me is these dating site all expect you to pay for it but take no precautions to check. Military cupid now has a photo verification which helps. If the guy in the photo is Aaron Ramos and is ok with his photo been used by scammers, surely the military should take action?? Devoting a little more of time only to shutting down this guy for once and for all…

Hello All, I one of the growing people from the u.k. that has been scammed by men claiming to be a US solider and now i have about 5 on the go trying to get something from me !

He hasn’t ask for any money, but he did ask if i could help him get a satellite phone.

Hi CJ! I want to add the photo I sent to you on the so-called Jenn Smith or Bruce Collins. I have found evidence of a side that he uses the same photo on both names.

Tomorrow morning some guy in Ghana is not going to be happy. Just sent him a email telling him he is a scammer and it is not going to be payday. Called himself James Wanggla (he’s in Facebook with that name). First he asked me for a Mac Air laptop, then an Armani watch, next was going to send me a box full of gold and $500,000 in cash, apparently the King gave it to him. Never did find out what King it was lol. He sent a picture of a Army officer in uniform with the name “Joseph” on it hmmm said his name was Wanggla. Watch out for this guy, if anything he is stupid. Also using the name Jonny Walker, doesn’t even spell Johnny right.

Would you believe my Ghana scammer came on line tonite and asked me to forgive him??? Told me he really is from Ghana, black 24 years old. Not the fine young man in the soldiers uniform at all. Gave him the lecture and that’s the end of him.

My military scammer:

EMAIL: “Hirsch Johnson”

Thanks for the reply am the kind of man that you can trust above all else.I enjoy cuddling on the couch after a romantic dinner, the only lights are from the candles burning, watching a movie or just talking. I enjoy the walks on the beach. Horseback riding in the mountains or visiting the vineyards. Anything is special when you are with the right person.

I am Major Hirsch Johnson of the united state army presently on deployment to Afghanistan for peace keeping mission. I have been here less than six month now am the major assigned to the sixth ranger battalion with unit no 19081871/afgh in kabul,nato base in Afghanistan.

I am a widower as i have lost my wife in a ghastly car crash few years back. I have a 3years daughter named Jenny who resides with my elder sister in Italy,Prisca my sister will be taking care of her pending on when my deployment is over. I have spent almost 15 years at in the army.

I join the army through the R.O.T.C but took some more practical training at Wisconsin in the United State. I am here in search of love and all its vital component like trust love and sincere commitment.

As for what makes me happy is i love saving people i love my job and i can do anything to make people around me happy,i stay and station in Philadelphia but my whole life now is just me,my sister Prisca and my daughter Jenny left so relocating shouldn’t be a problem to me,meeting the right match is just the problem at the moment.

I love to laugh,careering and looking for a like minded person who understands the concept of life and living a good balanced lifestyle. Looking for a companion who possess the ability to hold a good conversation…Someone like myself who works hard. Someone who is aware,I’m fun loving, honest, trust worthy, loyal and kind. also like adventure and quiet nites in with a glass of wine!

I believe the relations between a man and a woman should be based on trust and respect, being able to solve any problem by the way of compromises…That’s the way to keep the sparkle of love burning for many years. I have been looking for a woman to share all the secret things with him and to feel him presence despite any miles between us.

And please don’t let the distance scare you away from me,we can work it out if we are made to be together,just let us move ahead and get to know each other properly we can break the distance if we are made to be.

Ooh less i forget am 43 years of age,I will appreciate if you chat on our email(yahoo messenger), my IM is” infantry_hjohnson@yahoo.com ” I have added you on yahoo messenger so that we can have a better and comprehensive communication,please do accept me so that we can chat later in the day…

Thanks for the time.

Cheers!!

Hirsch

Looks to be a 30 year old man with a 3 year old daughter. Only one friend on one site. Same pic for both.

Graduated Franklin, Virginia, class of 1956, which would make him about 72 years old!

Like all these women I thought the person was real. I meet him first on Robert Cordingly parentsingle.com. He contacted me a week later telling me he was in Afganistan and it was his last tour before retireing and he was trying to find his soul mate. After, talking to him for a while a few other ladies found me. I guess when he signed up to Yahoo he didn’t know there was a comment bar. I left comments and One of the ladies I chatted with said, she was talking to him for a while. Wanted to know how I meet him and I told her on parentsingle.com. She was from Virgina and another from Ohio. I just got a message from the one in Ohio. All she said was to be careful that he not who he says he is. So, I started reseaching. Have a lot of pics of him in uniform holding my pics in front of him.He made a point of sending pics of him with my pics. Everything seemed fine till the end when he said, he was sending a package and a friend was bringing it to me. Then his friend ran out of money in Ghana. His friend he called Dankyi called and said to tell my husband that he ran out of money to give customs for the package to go through. I told him your agreement was to deliever first than get paid.After, asking for money many times.I told him I didn’t have money to give. This went on for a little while then he emailed and said he was getting a bank draft from a bank to my bank so I could pay the Attorney and the Attorney could pay for his friends flight back to Afganistan.All he said he needed was a Trustee.I really don’t see how anyone could get a loan without collatral.

George R Moose has been at it again – or rather his scammer. He was on Fifty/fifty dating website and is back again. He uses 2 email addresses, gmoose100@hotmail.com and gmoose200@yahoo.com. He is presently British living in Bedforshire for local government on £30,000 – £90,000 a year. When I was corresponding with him he went from being on a peace mission in Kabul to mechanical engineer and finally Staff Sergeant E6. Everything he said was false and obviously a scammer. I wish there was some way that he and those like him could be caught. I kept him online for as long as possible trying to turn the tables on him but he found me out eventually.

Been talking to a soldier by the name o Sgt Major James Muller in Kabul Afghanstan. He to has ask for money for phone and money to come home on leave. As fool i sent him money for phone but have not sent money for him to come home. I want to know if this person is for real or not. I do have a couple of pictures he sent. He says he is from Ohio which i looked up and found that he does not exsist. The last e-mail i sent him was to tell if i reveived a letter from the army and that i have not opened it yet. He emailme back and said he was hurt and told me to put it in the trash and dont open it. I never received that letter and when he told me to throw it away that is when i knew something was wrong. I will try to send his pic to anyone who wants them. I did not find them on your site here.

Forgot to say that he claims to be in Kabul Afghanistan and doing every day 3-4 patrols. But of course he is not allowed to say in which camp he is and because of the war he has no access to his money. Of course he told me, they dont have phones over there.

Guess that George Mosse has surfaced again. Boy I love google lol. Thank you all for writing this page. It has saved me from some emotional hurt yet again.

Claims he is in Iraq and is due to retire in two month’s time. Email address he is using is moosegeorge@rocketmail.com.

Guess that’s the end of that…

I have been chatting to an Alex Ramos, there are loads of similar profiles of Ramos on Facebook including Aaron Shaun Ramos, Aaron Ramos. Innumerable ones in fact and yes, if it is the one in the pink shirt in the car, that’s him been chatting to him for months!

First he was in Qatar, then he was in Iraq and I thought it strange why do I need money to send leave forms and I am coming out of the army- you are my beneficiary. Ha ha. What a fool, I was unwell and taken in by those stories and his promises. Stupidly I paid for the forms then I realised it was a scam because he wanted money for his flights. I thought this is strange, kept asking for money, no access to bank accounts wanted me to open a bank account. Within days, there was undying love, poetry. Will u be my wife? Etc

But I challenged him on his behaviour thought you ought to get a lawyer and hand yourself in.

Am sorry about all this am assuring we will take measure in tracking down all online scammers, their as been a meeting with the erupean union and african concerning this issue, a conclution a been made, to pay compensation of $80,000 to all victim kindly contact us if you are scammed and evidence to back it up

Thanks

Oops..sent too soon. Anyway, Army guy in Iraq, wife passed away 5 years ago. Needed 5k for transport home because he was retiring but the military planes were in repair. He also needed 5k (started as 10K)to pay for military security as he was contracted by the army as an engineer. Didn’t ask for $ to go by Western Union (Bank in Hong Kong)…only when he claims to have gotten all but the last $1500 did he ask for it to be sent via Western Union..to the UK, then from there someone would supposedly send it to him.. I would do anything to know if the man in the picture is really him. How can I do that? Anyone with a similar story to this? Probably everyone.

Christina – yes, we have probably been talking to the same person for months

There is a group on Facebook with a lot of pictures in there – more confidential!

One of my best friends just told me today that she thinks she’s been scammed….does anyone know or has been scammed by a person named David Drake Honeyman from Colorado. He told my girlfriend that he’s in the front line in Afghanistan and yes, in some united nations ally special forces. She has been bilked out of $67,000 of her 401k. She is a recent widow and was very vulnerable. she met him on the site BADOO. Is there any recourse in that anyone knows about to recover her money? I contacted the FBI but not much they can do…Can the military do anything?

okay, here is another name I believe is a scam: Sgt Roland Smith, US Army…. uses myyearbook.com and his address listed as Kabol (sp) should be Kabul…He has a yahoo messenger acct of sgt_rolandsmith… a facebook account under roland smith in Afghanistan… he called his mother Mum which is a very british thing to do, considering hes suppossed to be from Cali.. His wife died in an auto crash 6 years ago and he has an 8 year old son living with his mother…he has football on his fb page as his favorite sport but has soccer as the pictures… not a very american thing to do….. his FB pictures, although in uniform do not show his name….be very suspicious….waiting patiently for him to ask me for something….he has not friends on FB, just started Aug 5th…His YB account is set to private and he wont accept friend… all very suspicious.. has anyone else heard from him?

Has anyone heard of “Peter Butterfield”?

I have been scammed by a man named James Larsen 14 from yahoo.. he states in his letter his is widower and has one son who is being watched by a diplomat who is now in Africa and will be retiring in two months and will return to Avon Ct. He will write and ask questions and CJ I have pictures to share so this will not happen to others.. He originally contacted me on IM match.. and asked me if I had IM yahoo…

Also been duped by George Moose…

He uses the email george_moose@hotmail.com

Endless declarations of love; 55yrs old; retires in a month or so; b-day 2/8; been wounded in the thigh; found wife in bed with another man; son of 11 years old.

Prying on lonely women.

Scammer.

Shit..

YOU GO LUCY IM VERY PROUD OF YOU, BUT UNFORTUNATELY THERES STILL ALOT OF MEN AND WOMEN OUT THERE THATS BEING SUCKED IN BY THESE WANT A BE BAD BOYS, IF YOU WANT TO HELP POST THIS ON YOUR WEB SITE FACEBOOK,TWITTER, OR WHAT EVER YOU HAVE. TO HELP PREVENT THESE SOLDIERS SCAMMERS FROM DOING ANYMORE HARM TO INNOCENT LIVES, THERE ALOT OF PEOPLE THAT DONT KNOW ABOUT THE SCAMS THATS GOING ON.AND IT NEEDS TO BE PUBLIC INFORMATION TO EVERYONE. CJ GRAHAM WILL BE PROUD OF US .

I too was on a Christian website and was contacted by a man claiming to be Major Gregory Staud or Staudd; he spelled it both ways in emails/chats. He said he was divorced, had no living family…son who was killed in a motorcycle accident; brother who was killed in Iraq. He said he was serving in Afghanastan and at first wanted me to write a letter to his commander to have Emergency Leave, then when I questioned that after reading on the web about these scams, he quickly moved to telling me he had health issues and was going to be discharged honorably and he could retire and come home. His email address is onelife2live4@ymail.com. He still has a posting on Facebook. http://www.facebook.com/people/Gregory-Staud/100002889807666.

I was able to trace his IP address to Sunnyvale, CA…still believing that this might be wrong. After confronting him again, I found that he deleted his profile from the Christian Dating website and then today he removed his profile from yahoo messenger so I could not contact him.

There is a special place in HELL for these people. The hardest thing is that I really fell for the guy in the photos. Would like to post them so people can see who he is, just don’t know where to go to post. If anyone knows, please share.

Clearly the pictures show Mr. Witt wearing an US ARMY jacket, although he reports being marine, he has reasons for all of this, and states he knows about the fake pictures. His story is clearly different from the person calling himself Sigmund Witt. But anyone having any information, please email me. I have no experience honestly with any military contact so am slightly clueless on what is normal and what isn’t. mllwhynot1@yahoo.com

Sgt. Fred Marculy, fmarculy@live.com, asked me to apply for a satellite phone for him from the phone dpt. Sun, 9 Oct 2011, because ” i just received a letter to be deployed to Baghdad and that means i would loss total contact with you babe that hurts me so much hunnie over in Baghdad camp there is no internet or general phone connection and i would miss you so much my love”. I was lucky I couldn’t answer till now so I found this site.
Now I don’t know what to do exactly, but one thing is sure: I’ll tell him no.

CJ…. I think I have a new one for you to post here but I think the pictures might be real. The person behind them is not though. I met him on match. I did fall for it for the first four days but from the beginning something didn’t seem right and getting a letter from his 16 year old daughter “hello mommy” just topped it all for me. So I went and found your website and than I just played his gamefor the next two days…. all loving and missing and slowly got him scrambled like eggs on a pan after my last question to him where his base in states is located and he got of line. He came back with googled address. I will continue to play his game but I think he know I’m after him. In the meantime I have found him on facebook and thanks to that idiot posting new picture on our chat and he gave it to me. This pic was on his facebook. He is of course in Kabul right now and is coming home soon and retiring and his wife and little boy died in accident six years ago. His 16 years daughter though is being raised by a home taker. Here’s the thing, on his facebook his “daughter” is under different name. More detail about him: came from France when he was 15, he is from Albany, NY, on fb says NY,NY his parents died, he speaks Spanish, French and not so good English. I’m glad I have trust issues. CJ I want to send you pictures. I have pics he used on me and from his fb. Please contact me.

HEY IF ANYBODY WANTS TO TALK IM HERE FOR US AND WANT TO HELP I CAN BE REACHED AT KATHY.SKINNER80@YAHOO.COM OR ON FACEBOOK I FOUGHT OBBARRIAN CANCER FOR TWO YEARS AND NOW I WANT TO HELP STOP THESE WANNA BE BAD BOYS THAT CALLS THEMSELF USA SOLDIERS

The pictures are the same as well but he was so polite he sent me six pictures.
I too am a victim of RAMOS, EDWARD NICHOLAS DOB 11/14/1965 FROM PA. He contacted me through “Are interested” a dating website through Face book….I have heard it all…he wanted me to request leave for him because we are getting married. So I did…through an email to his Commander:
commander@gazatroops.com, he actually emailed me the letter to send.
(Letter sent to commander)
To: Commander,

Good morning Sir.
I will not take up much of your time as I am sure you are very busy. I am xxxxxxx , the fiancée of Capt. Edwards Ramos. I have most recently had to endure a very agonizing and painful loneliness and preparation of our Wedding coming up end of the season. Due to this fact I would like the help, support, and comfort Capt. Edwards can give me during my examination.
Commander, I respectfully request that you grant Capt. Edwards Ramos leave so that he may come home and tend to his family. If you would see to it that this matter is taken care of right away it would be greatly appreciated.

If there are any additional questions or if you need to contact me, you may email @xxxxxxxxxxx

Thank you, for your time in this matter and for your service to our country. I pray your military installation is capable of a 13-gun salute today, our Independence Day, to boost the spirits of our troops. Have a wonderful day Sir.
___________________________________________________________________________________

This was his response today that I received from the commander today 10/14/11
From commander
Hello Madam,

I Was a little surprised to receive an email from you requesting a leave for
Capt Edwards because I was not expecting to read from you. Well I will
like to help because it will be my joy to see Edwards get a time off. But
I must tell you this since the killing of Osama bin laden the defense
department closed all leave application for now. But I do have an
authority to let any officer go home if I think he merit it. The officer
will have to take responsibility for his flight home and any other expenses
he might have to do. A refund will be made available to him as soon as the
defense department makes available the leave packages. Get back to me if he
can afford the cost then I can issue him a letter which will let him
travel. Thank you and have a good day

Regards,
Gen. L Austin

I thought it was so unusual first of all he did not use a military email address, I asked him why? and he said he did not for security reason as well. I am glad that I looked this up because this is how I found out he was a liar….and a scam!!! He had already asked me for the money for his flight too, I am just glad I did not send any money, was always skeptical!!!Please keep posting your stories.
I have yet to email or text him that I am onto his scam…

Crazy Stupid I also have photos and his fake Bank Information, He wanted me to transfer $50,000 from his bank in London, to seal a deal with the Arabs, he is in Afgan and suppose to be coming home actually today, his son named Austin and he has apt at Ft Sam Houston.

can someone tell me, is it right that in afghanistan, that you have to pay for a phone line, namely 250 pound, so that you can keep in touch with someone, also, do you have to pay for replacement leave so they can come home, or do they have everything done by military if they want to come home, think im being scammed, why do you have to pay anything

Ramos, is now using the first name Edward and he is going to retire in 18 months. I knew right off that something was not right. 1. you don’t declare love for a stranger in just a couple of text and 2. if you are special opps, I don’t think you are suspose to tell it. LADIES beware he is a smooth talker. I do believe he could charm a snake. I truly feel sorry for the correct Mr. Ramos who served in the US Army.

Has anyone been contacted by a Capt Patrick Osborne? Typical widowed 8 year old son looked after nanny. Have even talked to them both on phone!!!!! Where do i send the photos i have so the innocent serviceman/men can be traced and made aware. Thanks

I have traced the PDA number he gave me too. It’s a UK number +447716722361 – those scammers are also working out of the UK!!!!!!!!!

Just realized today that Sgt. Kevin Butterfield is a FAKE. Said he is stationed in Camp Taji in Baghdad Iraq. Fixing to retire…wife died in car accident, 13 yr old son named Ryan that lives in Holland with his wife’s sister. Just glad I was smart enough to not send any of the items he was requesting. Like a laptop, iphone, Ralph Lauren Tshirts and underwear…basketball shoes and other expensive items. I have looked on several of these types of websites and have yet to see “his” name listed …but he has a way with words. “pretty” being one of the most used! I was on match.com that we met and of course he is no longer there. There is a FB page of Kevin Butterfield with same pic…but not sure who is who anymore). I consider myself a smart woman…but these are evil men…and using our military men like this is shameful and really sad. Wish there was something I could do to report this.

sgt frank lucas said he was 45yrs old. franklucas147@yahoo.com from Phiily Pa. but moved to Maryland but now all the sudden has a Italian accent some times he could spell and other times not so I think it is more than 1 person in on the scam ( i just thought he was tired) I hate that they use our wonderful military men to make money for there lazy a_ _es

The following is an email I received from a guy who claims to be Sergeant Wes A Smith who is stationed in Iraq. I have pics of him, a phone number, and a third person address, and his APO address. He wanted me to send a laptop, gold cross necklace, watch, and an IPOD. He actually called me today with a( 216) area code. He sent roses to me. He thinks I am sending a package to Washington to the address he provided. He said the person at this address will deliver it to Iraq, because he will be deployed soon. I was thinking about sending a box full of **** to that address and sending him the tracking info, so he would think I fell for his scam, meanwhile I would notify the police in Washington of this scam. Please tell me what I need to do to help stop these scammers. Thank you!!!
would like to know what I can do to help stop this guy. And, yes, he contacted me on the PLENTY OF FISH dating site.

I grew up in a military family with all that entails: moving every couple of years, learning what time “Colors” and “Taps” would be every day, being able to identify friendly and OpFor tanks and aircraft by the time I was nine, being able to hit a target at 300m from the prone position with an M-16 by the time I was ten and knowing how to make my rack and set my gig line by the precocious age of six.
Seriously, we did move around a lot, I was born in Mason, OH but moved to greenville, Ohio within a few months and Omaha, Nebraska when I was three. My family moved to Athens, Greece when I was seven and we were there for four years, when I was eleven we moved to London, UK ,We spent some years there tho cos my Mom was from the UK and when I was 18 we moved back to Mason, so basically I have not lived anywhere that people speak English since we left Omaha.

I joined the Army Corps after high school and managed to get into a unit that spent a lot of it’s time overseas. Unfortunately most of that was in the hot, miserable, stinking sandbox of the Middle East, I can still say “damn it’s hot” and “pass the camel ka-bob” in Arabic and Farsi. The upside was that we also got to go to places like Thailand, Bali, Hong Kong, Singapore and, best of all, Australia (Side note on Australia, it is the second best place on earth, pretty, great beer, beautiful countryside and friendly people but then again I was so plastered on the beer I might have been imagining everything else)…Am right now in Iraq and I hope am gonna be home real soon…Told you that?
To cut the long story short:…Some years later I met the right one and we got married with two great kids…I lost her about 6 years ago..since then have been searching for the right to make me happy again and take me as I am….love my kids and I don’t want someone who’s gonna treat bad….Well I think am gonna stop here for now….More question for me?….and I do hope you gonna like my Accent,..Looking forward to hearing from you. and do you have yahoo messenger so we can chat more and more and know more about each other.Hugs!

He is now on Facebook under the name “Ramos Daniel Johnson” on the road and has been attempted in the friendliest and most charming way with me. And when I got suspicious, I did some research and found out the truth. I wrote to him again to eventuel zuerfahren anything. He must have noticed, however, he is so cowardly too.
My sympathy goes to the real Cpt. Patrick Burke Smith. May he have the necessary strength to the whole thing to stand well.

I have meet this Sgt on a dateing web site he says his parents are dead and is due to retire after 23 years in the Army His name is Sgt. Bryan Smith Miller he says hes stationed in Kabul. He has called me several times on my cell phone. He says his father was American and mother from UK he said his wife was killed in a car accident and he is divorced from the second wife says he caught his wife cheating with his best friend. His email address is sgtmiller.smith50@yahoo.com I had a friend do a secuity check on him and he says hes who he says he is but I still have a gut feeling hes not who he is. He has sent me many pictures of himself.

I wish I had founf this site earlier. I just got scammed by the person pretending to be Aaron Ramos, his picture is above, But he used the name Michael C Ramos, Lt Col in the Army. Originally from Greece, was stationed at Fort Gordon Garrison in Georgia, redployed to Afghanastan.Widowed with a 15 yr old Daughter, Monica, in greece with his Mother I was stupid and fell for it, even after I was skeptical of a scam. I lost alot of money, lost my heart and my pride. Even after I just caught on he still tried to profess his innocence. What a fool I was.

I was scammed – the so called “gentleman” is now using the name Staff Sgt. Micheal Witt. He is the only child of Italian parent – who of course are dead. He is 1/2 Italian, 1/2 American. He is both divorced and widowed – divorced the wife who later died of breast cancer 3 years ago! He has adopted a child from Ghana. The Boy, Joshua, has been with a caretaker, Joel, for over 11 months. I met Micheal on a dating site – yes, I have reported him! – said he was stationed in Iraq. He hadn’t heard from his son in a very long – sob story. I must admitt I fell for it!!! After the annonucement of the end of the Iraqi war, he got orders to be shipped to Afghanistan for the next 2 to 3 weeks, thus missing Christmas. He gave me the phone # of the caretaker. I did not call, at first. However, I felt that I had to try and contact the son to let him know that his father was well, so I created a calling account on yahoo – this was one of the best things I’ve ever done!. Since my account was new, I only had 5 minutes for each call until my account is verified! I called the caretaker and was told the boy was doing well, given the circumstances – he has been very upset because he hasn’t heard from his father. All were doing fine, however, the caretaker had lost his job and money was tight, etc. I said I would pass his message back to Micheal and that I would call back to talk to Joshua the next day. Both of which I did. Joshua, had developed a high fever overnight and was taken to “First Aid.” Again, only 5 minutes to talk – probably saved me from the full force sob story.

A friend at work, did not like part of the story I was told and started to invesitage and found this site. Thank you for creating this!! I am only out about $5 and a slightly brusied ego. I feel embarrassed and very stuipd. I will survive and will be all the more aware in the future. Hopefully, someone will be able to advoid this situation, by reading my story!!!

I met a man about a month ago on match.com, goes by the name Jake Issac, (email: is_jake01@yahoo.com) says is currently serving in the Army and is in Iraq, says he adopted an son that lost both his parents in Liberia during the war about two years and ago is now living in an orphanage in Gahanaweith his grandmother lucy. My kids, in wanting to protect me from being scammed, have run a background check on him and came up with nothing, they also had a friend currently a Lt. in the Army run a check and he found nothing as well, not even a Jake Issac in the Army. Has any one had an encounter with this man at all. Please let me know. He has never asked me for money, but he did say that he is retiring from the army on the 31st of Dec. 2011. I just don’t understand why hes is not found in military records. please if anyone has had contact with him as well let me know by sending me a message at liloleme56@yahoo.com. i’d really appreciate it. Thank you and I am sorry to hear of all these sad stories of women falling in love with some man that is not for real. Irene
