Scam Alert
Robert (Rob) Mendes
tel: 631-697-9106
Says he is 26, originally from Michigan, claims now to be homeless in upstate New York, and asks for money. Solicits on an internet dating site where he uses the screen name cuteandloveableguy_4u . Once he gains your phone number, makes threatening calls to harass for money.
He got me yesterday, using the same ammo, saying he was homeless and needed money. He is very convincing, making up elaborate schemes about having a wreck on his way to me and needing money to fix a flat tire, etc. When he didn't show up I started researching and found this site. Too bad I didn't find it before I sent him $425.00.
Not sure if this is the same guy or not... same name but older... I was scammed by him in 1996! I wrote check with promise or repayment and spent 6 months in jail and 18 grand later... long long story.... too many coincidences... Same type of dating site scam! we went to Jamestown and he showed me where he "used to live"/go to college and Long Island NY too! He has been spewing lies for years and years and according to his Criminal record a RAPIST as well! (I didn't find out till after!) Don't meet him or send any money!
By the way... I also have Info and a Picture of him for verification if you are interested!
