What name did the scammer use?: Micheal Kang Lee
What site/app did you first meet the scammer on?: Truly Filipino dating site
What email address(es) did the scammer use?: michealkanglee771@gmail.com
Briefly explain what happened during the scam. :
I met him through an online dating site in May, 2020. He send a message introducing himself as Dr. Micheal Kang Lee, 46 years old from South Korea, a neurologist from UK. He provided his email so we can talk freely since he said he's not usually online due to work constraints as a doctor. Based on his fabricated story, he told me that he's divorced and had a 5-yr old son named Johnson. The kid is with his ex-wife who cheated on him due to his being workaholic. He assumed that we are a couple already and he has plans for our future together. He's leaving UK and will settle to my country but before that he has a contract to finish first in Canada that's why he plans to send a package containing valuable items he wants to be delivered thru a courier service. Currently, he's still sending emails and he 'landed' safely in Canada.
Did you send any money to the scammer? If so, how much?: No.
