Reports :

After reading all the reports ahead of me I'm grateful that I was able pick this creep as soon as he started hinting for money. He started by saying he was a Florida businessman, using the name of a legitimate Florida building company, and then the usual drivel about a deceased wife and one son. We soon moved from email to Skype and Google Hangouts. After a few weeks of talking on Skype he claimed to be travelling to Ghana to buy property with the aim of mining it for gold, two trips in three weeks.

Whilst on the first alleged trip he sent me jewelry. The mention of Ghana had been warning though and I began to question the person, and never got any satisfactory answers. Then, when there the second time, he claimed that he couldn't complete the land purchase transaction unless he paid the lawyer, a sum of US$3000 and that he had a temporary cash flow problem. He emailed me doctored documents which were supposed to convince me he'd purchased land.
