Am I being scammed does the scammer stay for 2+ years

I am not sure if I am dealing with a scammer. I met this gentleman through linked In. He left me a message on my LinkedIn profile. He had a profile but a few days later it disappeared. We have been communing by text or messenger since 2015. We have not met face to face. He has asked me to help him with his business project he was doing in Florida early on. I have sent him money through moneygram and wire. He says he has not been paid for his project and he is now overseas working to raise money to pay taxes so he can get his money. He has now been paid by his company but had to pay a lump sum amount in taxes before he can gain access to those funds. He is pressuring me to pay the amount for the taxes. I keep telling him I financially cannot pay this amount. If course over this time he has expressed Hus love for me and we will be together soon.

Help!

cjm55,

There is no doubt you are dealing with a scammer, sorry to say it. Please read the link Big Al posted for you above.


It will be a great help for other victims of this scammer if you post some relevant details about him - emails you received, pictures, documents. Be sure you delete your name before posting. If you can not post it, try, please, to forward the emails you received from this scammer and all the people contacting you on his behalf to Big Al or me - you can find our email addresses on the site under every post we made here.

No matter what, don't send any more money. Don't tell the scammer you know he is a scammer - just block him and cut all the ways he may use to communicate with you.
