I just experienced this on Yahoo, This person had pictures that looked
like a model. He did not want to communicate through Yahoo Personals
e-mail. I chatted with him for about 2 days before he told me that he
was from the UK, Liverpool to be exact and he was working in Africa. His
profile said that he lived in Media, Pa. he asked me where I worked,
thinking he lived in the area I shared my company name. He started
sending all of these love e-mails I told him that he was moving way to
fast especially since he lives in the UK. Then I received a delivery to
my office of Flowers and Godiva Chocolates from him. This freaked me
out, because he had to do research in order to find address of my
Company. I IM'd him to thank him and once again expressed my concerns.
He told me that his mom lives in Media and he is moving to the US as
soon as his work is done in Africa (which was supposed to be the next
Saturday), even gave an address in Media where he was moving (My friend
checked it out the street address does not exist). The next day he IM'd
me saying that he lost his wallet and would I send him money for plane
fare to US, because he loves me so and wants to see me and his mom.
Well, I will not go into the details of my response, but this was
certainly a lesson learned. On the positive side I did get flowers and
chocolates lol, Good luck in your search and be careful
