David Howard

online dating

Accra, UK

The scammer called David Howard story is he is from London,England. He meets an american women in Germany marries her and they move to her home town in Boston. They have a childed called Peter. Wife has and afair with his business patner, David is broken hearted over this and moves to Greenville,SC where he is a owner of a small computer business. In meeting David on Okcupid.com he is in London visiting is Mum and has taken his 12 yr old son with him. He is looking to meet a lady who will make a good honest wife and mother to his son. While emailing David has to go to Accra,Ghana for business reasons and he must take Peter with him. In the mean time he talks about is son and he is all he has in the world and if any thing ever happen to him he would take his life as he could not live without his son. Here is where he thinks by saying he wants your opinon (as now he belives you are bated into to thinking like a mother to the son) he ask do you think it is a good idea to let the son go with the trustworthy paid driver who comes highly recommed by a lavish hotel to be honest and safe to go to the movies. The next day (because of the time difference in the US and Ghana) I received a chat sounding very aurgent ... next I here a call from a prepaid cell phone from David all up set and crying about his son involved in a very bad accident and is in the hospital almost dieing and of course he has very little money with him and needs $2000.00 or the hospital will now give him medical attention!!! At that point I knew for sure he was trying to scam money from me. I at once deleted and blocked all commincation. The ploy here is to make the son the main topic and to pull the lady in by romancing her with words of love and talk of family happy ever after. As he is a man of monitary means they will live in the good life. Yes it took me a bit of time to fully realize he was a liar and the things he would say did not ad up. If you have someone that is professing love and saying all this within a few days of meeting you online HIT THE DELETE REMOVE ALL FROM UR COMPUTER.. NO FURTHER CONTACT. AND PLEASE SEND NO MONEY!

Odd.... sounds too familiar to ignore. I have been talking to a Joseph Howard.... identical story.... Son's name is Rick. Unfortunately, I was not too smart. I sent money. And he also had a 'friend' send money to my credit card for me to send to him as a loan..... except after I sent the money, the 'friend' took back his payment to my credit card so I am out double. I wanted this to be so true..... Stupid in FL
