I had been corresponding with this person for 4 months. Stated he was a civil engineer and was working in the Uk on a project. Needed money for tax and import duties on machinery that he had imported to the country. Also had a teenage daughter Jane. Was a widower of 7 years. He was swedish, brought up in the united states but wanted to live in australia. On his profile he had an address in Melbourne. Was very convincing. Promised to reimburse me when he returned to Australia as he had a 2 year working visa. Also promised to marry me and called me his wife. I was hi diamond and his queen, his soulmate. What was even more disreputable was that he professed to despise people who would take money from others. Needless to say over time there were always excuses as to why he could not come requiring money. When there was no more he wanted me to open an account for him as I could not do this in his name it had to be in my name. He transferrred money into the account and required me to send it back to him via western union and bank eft. As I was so in love with this guy I did this. Later It was discovered that the money had been fraudulantly obtained and the money was wanted back. Needless to say I did not have it and have had to provide relavent information to the bank on a stat dec so I will not be liable for the sum of 30,000 AUD. This was repeated at another bank they informed me that the money was stolen and that was 45,000 AUD. They sent it back and now will have nothing to do with me. I retired and sent him all my super I am now on the pension and trying to pay of debts of 90,000 AUD. He is still stating he is innocent and that he wants to marry me. I have cut off all avenues of communication. He is under investigation of the federal police as the money sent went to various countries. The only reason why they are involved is because three banks have reported him. I have saved emails and skpe messages. I was aslo able to get other details from overseas scam sites with his profile on and photo. He is very repetative in his emails and conversation very vague when asked direct questions always has an excuse.
