I Carol Miller have a complaint against one Johnny Edward. I met such person on a dating site called BlackPlanet.com. He seemed to be a very nice and charming type of guy. Just looking at his picture that he has up on his profile on BlackPlanet you would think that he is an American. After I spoke with him on the phone because we did exchange phone numbers I can see that he is african. Because he spoke with an african accent. Anyway, this man told me he was rich and that he had came on BlackPlanet to find himself a wife. He told me that at the moment that he was in South Africa to get some equipment for his company. He told me he had spent 400,000 on equipment. Then he explained to me that he was short money for the shipping part of his equipment that he had already purchased. He told he had asked his mother to send him extra money for to ship his equipment but that she said she couldn't because she had already sent him 150,000 to help when he purchased the equipment because he was short. So johnny asked me if I could send him 1300.00 to help cover the cost of the shipping of said equipment. At first I said no and was mad he even asked for I had just met him. But he promised that if I sent it that he would give me 20,000 when he returned back to the states the following weekend. So I sent this 1300, but when the weekend came johnny did not come home to the states. He told me he had another meeting with the shippers of his equipment and that they had told him he needed 9000 more dollars before they would ship his equipment. So he told me he asked his mother if she could send him that 9000 but that she could only come up with 4500. So he asked me if I could send him 4500. I told him I don't have that type of money. So a couple weeks went by and he told me that he had good news. He said the shipping company told him if he could just pay half of the 4500 that he could pay the rest when he came home to te US. He asked me if I could just send him 2500 instead. I told him I would try and that I had to borrow that money from different check cashing places and on top of that he has not even payed me back for the money that he had borrowed in the first plsce. He promised once again to pay me 20,000 when he arrived here in the US. So I borrowed the 2500 and sent it to him. He called me 2 days later and told me he recieved the money but that the shipping company had lied to him. That he still needed an extra 3000.00 before he could come home to pay the shipping company. I quit talking to him at that point because then I was truely sure he was never going to come here to the US and that he was just scamming me. Whenever I sent him money I sent it through Money Gram to a Anthony Wovisike Umteor, #39 Davies Street, Capetown 7500 South Africa. I asked him why I could not send him money in his own name. He said because he did not have an ID for South Africa and so they wont give him money from Money Gram because of that so he was using the Hotel Manager to pick up this money for him. The Hotel where he is staying. The last date I sent money to him was 1/29. I would really appreciate if you the FBI can find this said Johnny Edward and put him in custody so I can get my money back.
