This scammer claim to be from Londan, living in San Diego,Ca suddenly had a project in Ghana and his luggage did not make it and he need to finish the project, but needs his laptop which was in his luggage. If I could go to Best Buy and buy him one, he would sure pay me back. I said NO and he was upset, say I do not Love him and I was leading him on. He must love me, he sent me some $300.00 roses and I can not do a little favor for him. Then he asked for $400.00 to purchase on over there, my answer was still no, my reason I do not give money to men against my believe, he ask how stupid is that don't you love me, I replied NO, I do not know you. He use the name Michael Lartey, when I looked that name up, it did not match the photo sent, Michael Lartey is a Ghana Chemist. The London guy is white big difference. I had several red flags that raised my eyebrow, that is when I began to do research.

On SingleNet his profile if Perfect4looking. His email on yahoo is nice4looking@yahoo.com and if you need a photo let me know

I was a victim of a dating scam. I am a recent widow who met an African male on BBWPersonalsplus.com. His screen name is sjzabalou - his name is Soko Jeannot Zabalou. He just recently moved to the UK for the US-PA. He led me to believe he loved me, wanted to marry me, etc. etc...we went on trips, were intimate - the works. Recently he traveled to the US to spend the holidays with me (so he said). I found out during his visit that he has other females that he's been promising the same, telling them he loves them, etc... I recently learned that he also has someone in the UK and these other woman has sent him money, etc... I don't know how he juggled us all at the same time - but I caught it and he needs to go down!!!

I am so tired of being contacted by these Dating Scam Jerks from Nigeria....is there a website to tell everyone about the scammers you come across?

Jan 20 2008 05:58:02 AM GMT

I am so glad there are people out here that cares. After reading your site i have to admit I was almost scamed. I am a member of a new site call BlackPeopleMeet.com. There I am a member seeking a romance until a gentlemen drop me a line telling me of himself and asking for me to contact him, I didn't think of anything at first until we got on the Yahoo Im to chat further. The more we talk and exchange pictures this person had the nerve to ask me of money. Luckly for me I did not give in instead I told this person that I was an uncover Police officer and quickly he left me alone. I wish to send u information regarding this party so they will not hurt the next innocent person who is looking for love as Myself. The party name was or is saying he is Alvin Daves, His handle or name he is using On BlackpeopleMeet is call Lover2be. Please check into this matter before some one loses their money, home or whatever to this guy. Thank-you.

I met someone online by the name of Eric Gyasi. I don't know if he is a fraud or not. People like travel agents have called me to tell me that he is not that kind of person, but just stuck in Africa. He originally had a NY phone #, which I have called myself and it did work. He said he had to go to his mother who was sick in Australia and then go to Africa to a gold auction because he says that he makes jewelry from gold. I hate to assume he is frauding me if he really isn't.

How do I know that he isn't actually stuck in that country? I have spoken to his supposed doctor when he was in the hospital from getting mugged. The person that mugged him took his money. He was mugged on the way back from a gold auction. The person took lots of money and knocked him out. He said he had to go by ambulance. He says he needs money to get back to NY. I have been talking to him for about 7 months and have told him no sending any more money and he still instant messages me.

He hasn't just gone away like some people say he would. He has gold in customs in Ghana and wants to leave it there and get it back when he gets back to NY where his money is. He says he can't access his money because his credit cards are on hold due to the mugging. How can I find out if he is truly a fraud? I have looked under the yellow pages in NY and there is an Eric Gyasi, but not sure if it's the same one.
