Started as romance online,he has caucasion picture, lives nearby me,is self employed repairing computers, currently visiting dad in Nigeria, has deseased mother was from UK. After several e-mails asked if he SENt ME a check would I cash it for him at Bank of America because they wouldnt transfer his money for some reason. Needs the money for airfare to get back to States. Says didnt take it in fear he'd lose it on trip. Managed to get him to give me addresses here, a SS#, previous addresses of his in States. Couldnt run SS cuz I cant pay to do it. I ended up giving him my address and he has my name. I am penniless, have no checking account, ans no assests of any kind. What should I be worrying about? If he sends me a check, will I get arrested for cashing it? Has anyone had this exact thing happen? Am I in danger? Should I notify someone and who?
NIGERIA SCAMS:What are the chances I'm NOT getting scammed?norton
He's a scammer. The photos are stolen, the addresses are imaginary, his social security number isn't his -- even if it's real, it's just stolen. Stop all communication with him immediately. You aren't in danger, he's a whole ocean away and can't get to the US... the biggest danger is that he will get very annoying when he keeps trying to convince you that he's the real deal, that he loves you, and that you can trust him and deposit the check!
