There is no way to know for sure if it is the same person, many scammers use common names and they seem to prefer the 2 first names. I have looked at the search posted in this post by The Enchantress it shows several other scammers posted at http://www.romancescam.com with the same IP address but no other types of scam, we still cant say for sure if that is the work of the same individual but there is a chance of it

All may not be lost yet as we have his daughters email address so I am hoping we can still contact him through that and continue gathering his script but more importantly include the email address he is currently using.


It is too late now to change anything that has been done but a note for anybody who may be reading this, reporting the email addresses of scammers for closure does not hinder their scamming in any way and it may actually help them.

Had he still been using that email address, anybody he emailed from it had the opportunity to do a search on it and find several search results confirming he is a scammer, now with a fresh email address that has not been posted that is not possible until somebody makes a new report on the new address, lets hope that happens soon.

It is a common thing for email providers to tell you to report the scammers for account closure and even the police will usually tell you to do the same but unfortunately they do not have the same experience as we do with these scammers and how they operate.


Adding further information on his daughters email address;

sorry guys. i was really upset about this guy and ( :oh-joy: ) for finding him out. without thinking i reported him along, with some other lady he was scamming on the same dating site. i had fear too he may find me out or my location. reading about ips addresses freaked me out, good thing i gave him a fake name and yahoo address.
will be on the look out for suspicious scammers on that site. and will be right back to report any red flags.

thanks for exposing scammers. :=)

Its done now Bev, no need to be sorry, we have a lot of script now that we didn't have before and I just know he will be using a lot of it again with his new email address.

With any kind of luck he will find my email address and begin writing again, they often do :wink:
