Miss Young, I am so glad I found your website. He has contacted me several times before. I sent $250 dollars to him once via Money Gram, but he claimed they could not use Money Gram, so I went and got my money back. prior to sending that money I prayed to God for a sign. When he emailed me saying they couldn't use Money Gram, that was my sign. He has still been contacting me from time to time, but now since I found your website, he'll never hear from me again. Thank you so much I would like to post all the emails I got from him on your website as well. Please send an email explaining how this can happen. The more people that can show how they were or almost scammed by him, the more will know he's a snake. Please don't post my name on the website. You can use my nickname "Lynn".
I have had contact with the same scammer earlier. Read about it here.
Read Lynns story below. Some of the letters Lynns sent are missing, but you should be able to understand it anyway.
