So I know him as Javier N Rodriguez , from Venezuela, deployed in Iraq and coming back to get me and take care of me when he comes back. He has a daughter named Anna, divorced from Australian ex wife on drugs who abandoned them after the fact. Parents passed , dad from an accident and mom from cancer. Apparently I am his one true love. Thank God he has limited info about me. He is from Charlotte NC, went to independence high school and a BSc in Criminology form the University of Seattle. His phone number is +1 (315) 617-0225 which the area code is from New York. He loves adventure, anything to show strength but won’t talk about his early life as a kid. He video called but it was like a minute and was patchy. He did see me though he was surprised I had curly hair. I deleted all pictures of him but browsing here. All the pictures he sent me are here also. As soon as I found this I blocked Everything, hopefully I’m safe and he will just move on to the next victim. Hope she does her research before continue to talk to this man.

Confronting the scammer is WRONG!!! DON'T enlighten criminals with your wisdom. REPORT & BLOCK.
PHOTO VICTIM - "Do not confront the owner of the pictures, as they are victims themselves! You will only serve to further the terror and harm !" Silence Is Golden!!! I speak Polish.

He calls himself Charles Simon Newton. Met him on Plenty of Fish in November 2022. Said he was in the Navy deployed In Turkey and was retiring Jan 17 2023. Said he was going onshore for coworker’s birthday and Skype messaged he had been arrested and neede $15k fine. Or 5 month in jail. Said he couldn’t afford to let military know or he’d lose his pension. I believed him and sent some money here and there. He probably got me for total of 6k. It’s a constant I need money for immigration or I need money for “flight ticket” as he calls it. He messaged me this morning and when I don’t respond he tries Skype calls but never hear him. He had tried video chat before but says on the ship service is bad. He told ne exact stories I’ve read here. The parents passing, the wife passing, the 2 kids, 9 & 15. He said his pictures were stolen and he can’t do anything til he’s back in states. He has sent a couple pictures I have not seen on here. I was really hoping he was the real Charles Newton.

Hello, I just joined this forum.
This man had contacted me on instagram and we have been talking on Google hangouts for about three weeks now. He is using the name Micheal Ryan. He's been in the navy for 27 years, currently deployed in Tripoli, Libya. His 10 year old daughter passed away from leukemia and is divorced.
He hasn't asked for pictures of me, and hasn't sent any of him. We did face time, and I noticed it was the same video that someone else posted on here. I questioned him about how the video looked prerecorded and he told me I was blurry too so it must have been the connection.
I also questioned him about his identity, and he told me that people have stolen his pictures for many years, which is why he doesnt have a lot of social media and he's had to clear himself with the authorities before. Maybe that's that case for the real man, but definitely not this fake.
I am not falling for this. I can't believe someone has been pretending to be this man for years.

Hello
I have been talking to him under the name Jesse Morris on Instagram and Whatsapp for 2 months now. Very, very good at giving declarations of love and writing nice texts. Not received a single question if I want to send money or anything. But it is probably a matter of time.
Been suspicious since the start but haven't found anything about him anywhere. But have now received photos that it was possible to do an image search on and then I found everything here.
Navy Seal.
Has a daughter

I was talking to him via Messenger from Facebook from 1st of May to 2nd of May of 2023. He said he was Thomas Winkler, originally from Innsbruck, now in Yemen for a deployment conference, working for the UN military. He showed how he could speak German too. Propably using the Internet. Very similar stories he used as said in this forum before.

He/they are now posing as Ronney Scott, US marine, divorced with a 12 year old daughter. Both on Tik tok and Facebook messenger. I've been talking to him for about a week, and like many of you have said, I knew in my gut something wasn't right from the start. However, he was so lovely, and because I'm in a bad place I guess I wanted to believe all the BS. Until he started talking about cryptocurrency at which point the alarm bells rang and I've blocked and reported him.
He does unfortunately have some pictures of me, but nothing incriminating.

I can't believe this has been going on for so long

So he found me on instagram just by giving me a follow and began talking. This happens last month.
Only now I learnt that you can do an image search and walaa I found him on this site.

He doesnt tell much about his life more then he works in the military as a mechanic and with assignments that are top secret.
He doesn’t ask me much , almost nothing but keeps the talking alive . He asked me to change to another app . And of course he falls madly and deeply in love with me with in no time at all. Now here is where I smell there is something fishy about him

He goes by the name Matt_nt4347 on instagram
With only 3 pictures.
He say his wife is dead and daughter is with his parents while he is in Gaza.
We have now miraculously the same time zone.

I have sent him like pictures of boring things and me as overweight as possible and still he is so inlove .

I can’t believe when I read all the post that are that he scams many people , or at least try .

His number he is using for WhatsApp is

‪+1 (336) 365‑8415‬

As of today, August 11th 2024 he was contacting me on Telegram, He’s going by Robert Newton (which is the name on his bank account) which started on July 26th on Facebook dating. He said his birthday was 7/8/74 in Quebec Canada. He moved to Tampa Florida when he was 5 with his mom (deceased April/2020 Covid) and older sister Cindy. He moved to Utah 2 years ago because his ex wife moved here to be with family. He was deployed to Poland from December 2023 until recently when he was discharged and retired. Saturday August 3rd he needed to send a down payment for an apartment, but said he couldn’t transfer internationally. He had me login to his bank account to send a transfer to myself so I could make the payment for him. His account had $585,000 in it. I noticed he made a transfer that day for the amount he needed for his payment. It was then I knew I had been scammed. Luckily he didn’t get much ($200 gift card) which was all I had. He later spent it at a Target. He then proceeded to repeatedly try to have me try various methods to transfer money, but I refused. He was so stressed out and had hypertension that for some reason he couldn’t come home. They sent him to Portugal for some reason. I should’ve just blocked him, but I wanted him to admit what he was up to. This morning he was furious because I cut ties with him that he texted the nude photo of me that I was stupid enough to take earlier in our texting. He was going to send it to all of my Facebook friends if I didn’t pay him $500. I refused. I deactivated my Facebook account and notified all of my friends/family. This guy is upping his game. Something needs to be done. He was so convincing the whole time. Within 2 weeks he sent me 1300 texts. My PayPal account was halted, I had to change my debit and credit card. I reported him to the FCC and the FBI cyber crime unit. Fingers crossed he gets caught (or hit by a bus)!!!

I did a spokeo search of his number and sent it to him after a week of talking. Blocked. I have full transcripts of our conversations. I saved everything.
