Dating Scam
Tony Williams endeared himself to me. Said he had to SOuth Africa on business. Said expensive equipment lost in transit. Asked me to loan him $4,400. I did. The money went to a man named Adava Oniwon in Houston, TX. I have his Wells Fargo bank account number. After that, asked to borrow $1,000. Once again, I loaned him the money.
He wired $37,800 to my savings account. I was to wire it to company in Hong Kong. I went to the bank. At the bank, I told the lady that I thought something was wrong and wondered where the money came from. She checked and learned that the money was fron bank in LaSalle, IL. She referred it to the legal dept. They determined that the money was taken from an acct at a bank in LaSalle, IL. That money was returned to the people's acct it was stolen from.
I heard from him only once after that.
I have done a great deal of research and have additional information related to the principals involved in this scam. I can furnish it to you.
