Forum - Possible scam artist on this website

I received the following email from this user:

"Hello,

I am a sex loving,caring,handsome and working person... I would be coming to your country this month end and i find you attractive on net to spend some hrs, let's say 6hrs out of my 2 wks with you... Please let me know the grand total you would charge me for the total hrs specified above so that i can send you a cheque prior to my arrival.. Thank you and please get back to me right away to my email address goranerickson@yahoo.com to show you availbale and interested in this offer.. Thanks....

Eric.. "

The email was sent to an unknown number of recipients as a blind carbon copy (BCC) email. That combined with the fact that the english is spotty even though he claims to live in Massachusetts and that the user registered yesterday are raising some alarm bells with me.

I have no proof that he's a creep, but if you've received an email from him just BE CAREFUL.

I also received a virtually identical email. I just ignore these kind of emails. They are another version of the Nigerian 419 scam. The giveaway is this phrase:


Whenever someone says they will send you a cheque - its a money scam. My rates and terms and conditions are posted on my website, so if they ignore or do not acknowledge them, then they are either not serious or are running a con.

Any other lady receive an email from Wealthymanerick? His profile says that he sent out 15 emails.

Dominixe is right, he must be a fraud. Maybe it would be good to report him to the admins, though I don't know if this is enough to ban that chap.

Here's another scam I just recieved as an email. These guys are getting inventive. I watched a program on the History channel and they stated that Niegra is the operating base of Al Quieda and many of the scams are their's.

Hii Warren,

I too did receive a similar e-mail before 2 days. I'm new to this community and I thought someone had liked my profile, so I replied to it. What is it all about? I have received a reply from that person, it is nothing, just 2-3 lines. I have checked the profile and found nothing to understand who the person is.

I want all of my friends here to be very careful about the Nigerian Scam or the 419 Scam. The thing with Nigeria is that 90% population is involved in this or that scam and that has left the Govt. helpless. All these 419 e-mails promise millions to the victim and then, squeeze out all his/her money, periodically. We ought to be cautious!

Someone please inform me about the e-mail that Warren and I have received! Has anyone else got any such mail????
