Unless noted, pictures shown are not the actual scammers. They are
innocent people that most likely don't know they are being used by scammers.
If you find your pictures listed & would like them removed, please
Contact us & we will be glad to remove them &
also let you know where we found them being used by scammers.

Scammers net millions if not billions of dollars each year world wide. IC3 reports
that in 2009, Americans lost almost 560 million dollars to scams. Scammers take
advantage of honest, hard working people looking for people that are lonely or
recently had a tragedy in their life and play with their emotions.
How could I be so stupid

After getting scammed, many people ask the question "how could I be so stupid".
The answer is, you're not. Scammers learn how to play on people's emotions and
especially their concern for others. They will take as long as they think they
need to gain your trust then the so-called problems they encounter will suddenly
begin.

Dramatization - We give big thanks to the web sites that allow us to flood their
site with our fake profiles (you know who you are). Your disregard for member
safety & your hunger for member numbers to boast about enables us to reach the
1000's of innocent peoples we scam so we have more money to terrorize the world
Chat with me

One of the first things a scammer will do is to try and get you away from the site
to chat with them on instant messenger. Scammers try to work very fast in most cases
and IM is much faster than conversating through emails and web site messages.
Read my profile

One of the biggest advantages scammers have is that many, many people do not read
profiles. They get so taken by that "good looking" guy or girl who sent them a message,
they immediately focus on communication without even looking at the profile.

NEVER give your personal information to anyone you meet on a social networking
or dating site. These days, it is just too dangerous. If you are talking to
anyone who does not understand this, that should be a big red flag. Even if
they want to "send you something, a surprise". This is a very common tactic
used by scammers to get your information.

Another thing that is very popular with scammers is that they will want to send
you items like clothes, shoes, cell phones, lap top computers and many other
items. They will then want you to repackage them and ship the items to them so
they can resell them. Don't do it. The items are always purchased with stolen
credit card information.
There are countless suicides because someone believed they were loved only to
get very emotionally hurt and/or lose their life savings
Do these scammers look like they care?
Mean, cold and heartless

Like the terrorists above, scammers are not the "nice guys" they make themselves
appear to be. When they don't get what they want from you, they can be very mean
and many times threatening. Usually threats are their last attempt to try and
intimidate you into sending them money. They will tell you they know where you are
and have friends that can "get you" but don't believe it.
They love you then need you

Scammers will tell you they have fallen in love with you within the first
few messages or chats. They want to come be with you but all of a sudden,
some crisis happens and they don't have the money, can't get to the
money or for some other false reasons, you are the only person that can help
them. And most of the time, you must help them as soon as possible (before
you have time to think).
Do not end up in jail

Every day, innocent people end up in jail and have criminal records for life because
they did something illegal when they actually thought they were helping someone. Cashing
bogus checks or money orders then sending that money overseas is a crime whether you
are aware you are committing a crime or not.
Warn your friends

Scammer awareness is the only defense we have against these criminals. If you are on a
social network or dating site and one of your friends is on the friends list of someone
you know that has been verified as a scammer, please tell them or let us know and we
will tell them for you.

Never trust a phone number

If someone gives you a phone number starting with 4470, it is a link number that
connects you with anywhere in the world, but not to a real UK number. Link services
are also available with U.S. area codes so never rely on a phone number for a true
location.
The Scam Police

There is no such thing as Scam Police or ScamPolice. Cashing fake checks/money orders
or receiving products then reshipping overseas can be a criminal offense. The
REAL police can't do anything to scammers, so that just leaves you to take the blame.
From mass emails to web sites

About 30 years ago, the only way scammers could operate was through mass emails. In the
mid 80's, they were called "Yahoo Boys" as opposed to "scammers". Today, scammers have a
much better way to reach more people on a more personal level through social networking
and dating web sites.
