shiaoshiao,
sorry to hear you were scammed. Please, tell us where you met him. If possible, try to post the first 2 emails he sent to you and the content of the emails about the money. Also the documents he sent to you, the phone number he use and the pictures. If you dont feel comfortable to post them, you may try to sent everything you have about this person to me, by email. You will find my email address under every post i made on the site.
No doubt he is scammer. Best thing to do is to stop any contact with him. do not reply at his emails anymore, dont take the calls if he call you, dont chat with him again. Do not sent him any money and do not accept anything he want to sent to you. Everything he told you are just lies. He is no military and he is not in Afghanistan for sure. The pictures you see are stolen - the real owner of the picture has nothing to do with the scam.
You may have one idea about the type of person hidden behind those pictures by looking here:

Help yourself by helping others - report your scammer here.Google can be your best friend;use it if you have doubts about someone met online. If someone met online only asks for money, no matter what reason, it´s 100% scam.
