This gentleman, using the alias George Foster, which was obtained from a stolen credit card, set up a profile on internet dating site Spark.com around February 1. He contacted me on the site and we started communicating by personal email and Windows Messenger for live chat.
This man posed as a widower from London, Ontario Canada (which is where the credit card was stolen) with a 14 year old son who was living in Washington State with this man's "mother". He stated that his "wife" died of cancer in 2005 and even sent me a picture of the 2 of them together.
"George" told me that he was leaving for Malaysia on 3/9 to settle his late "father's" estate ("father" died in 1999 and properties in Malaysia could not be claimed until 10 years after his death). We continued to communicate via live chat, text messaging, cell phone calls (he used DiGi as the cellular provider in Malaysia) and email, and on 3/20, he informed me that he was awarded a "Pronouncment of Next of Kin" by the Malaysian courts.
