I fell for a person pretending to be a US service man ([email protected])... After exchanging photos and many emails and chating he asked me for money first for his son's birthday, then for a computer and then again to pay for his son's teacher. Which I sent, thinking I was helping him... And his son living with his uncle... Well, this person is not in the military...
It took awhile after I sent the monies before I (and my daughter in law) found out more information about him... He has finally confessed that he actually lives in Ghana. His name is Benjamin Lamptey and his address is:
121 Santana Lane
Acura Ghana 00233
the phone number from which I was called is 23326686414

I have saved every email and other correspondence, the receipts from monies sent and everything else possible.
I know that I will probably never see any of my money back; however, hopefully he can be stopped from scamming other women like myself!
Sincerely,
WLFische
