sandrine,

Sorry to hear you were scammed.

Can you post here the email address he was using with you and the entire story leading you to find those stolen pictures reported above? Those info may save another victim soon.

Zorpia:

how are you?i really like your profile and i want to know you more.My name is Peter.do you have Skype and or email?


my skype peter.smith3689
and my email petersmith_1000@outlook.com


Screen name:

peter / petersmith1015
54, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Looking for a date or a relationship with a girl,
aged 40‑70, in Germany.
Divorced
I have been out of the dating scene for quite some time and it is really difficult to meet new people in my area. . I love the outdoors. Fishing, and riding my bike are big interests of mine right now. I am unique in that I like to do things that are different. I can't just sit around and watch a whole football game when I have grass to cut and things to do outdoors. I like music that has a good beat to it and that makes you feel good.
One of the things that I enjoy doing with someone is cooking. Food brings people closer and I enjoy trying new things. By the way, I like to think I am the master of the grill. I would love for someone to show me up...lol

Many different scammers use the same stolen pictures, so do not assume it is only one scammer in this case.

Thanks for the report.
Please post any new documents or pictures, phone numbers, his profiles on dating site or other where you met him that are not yet posted in this topic.

Stop all contact everywhere. Silence to the scammer will help protect others.
Please go here, and follow the advice to not only protect yourself, but other victims of the scammer.

Posted on the behalf of the victim:

Contact on FB, conversation moved on Skype. He told me he wants to marry me and make investments through me. When I said I wouldn’t want to have any relationship or marriage and refused to help with money he started avoiding me.

The victim checked the pictures and found it reported here.
