DATING SCAMMER Lidia Biama

The scam evolved over approximately 3 months and involved her/him (there were several distinct styles of writing and comprehension in the IM) asking for money to travel to Australia, or to pay for internet and phone bills. She staged an arrest for gold smuggling by customs officials at the airport and was allegedly fined $600 which she asked me to replace. Poor use of the English language on IM and emails made it easy to spot the scam and I was aware I was being conned in the first couple of days. She said she loved me after only 3 days of IM chat...it was obviously a set-up.

I was contacted by this girl nearly 2 month ago on the site Tagged.
She was listed to be from Hungary, but did from the start state that she was born in Florida, by an american father and Ghanesian mother. but was now living in Accra, Ghana. Her Father was claimed dead in a trafic accident when she was 2 years
And she was in Florida to get married 4 years ago, but discovered her best friend in bed with her fiance, and her uncle took her to Accra
She show herself on webcam of very poor quality. got susperious some time in the and did some test and it was most certainly fake.(www.fakewebcam.com)
She set up a web conversation with her uncle and later her mother, again in very poor quality and in various places of the house. nothing look like its coming from the same building.
She acts like being very much in love, saing everything a man would like to hear.
When i discovered the pictures to be of ******* model Corin Riggs and confronted her, It was suddenly her past that she was trying to forget...
Her voice was not at all like Corins in her private videoclips publiced on her website.
I was convinced,****** enough, to send money to visa application, and was presented with fake health, police and insurance documents. I tried to verify the visa on the embassy in accra, after getting her passport number. They could not find any applied visa.

Contacted me on the site and wanted to immediately go off site.
Said she was in Ghana with her Mum, sent me photos that I checked here, and BINGO...there she is.

This person contacted me back on December 5, 2011 though a website that I was a member of. I cannot remember the name of it. After a while she told me that she needed money for her mother that had to go to the hospital for health issues. After a few more months then her mother had an accident and slipped in the bathtub and hit her head and had to be hospitalized which she needed more money for bills. Then her monther passed away from the accident and she needed money for the funeral. She was aways asking for money to pay bills or buy food. She then herself got sick and eneded up in the hospital and had a friend conatct me and tell me that she needed money to pay the hospital and doctor bills. She claimed that she was a nurse but only made 400$ CEDI a month. I was foolish enought to actually send her money every two weeks for the past 8 months. I actually questioned her sereral times about some of the concerns that I had with the lack of details she always gave me when I asked questions. There was always an excuse why she could not do something when I asked her too. This person is a very good at what she does and can make you feel that she is ligimate when you actually speak to her on the phone. I felt I was being scammed at times but did not want to believe that it was true. I guess there is a sucker born every day and I must have been one of them. I actually did several searches on the internet but she did not come up. This week I told her that I was not longer going to carry on the relationship that I thought we might have had and her whole attitude changed. She stopped replying to my text messages and was very short on the phone so I thought that I would do another name search and there she was on this site. Only her name was spelled Lidia by the other two men. Some of the other things that she claimed was that her deceased father let her an inheratance of gems that were worth 3.5 million USD. She had a man conatct me saying that he was a Lawyer that represented her deceased father and he asked me to send $5000.00 as he had a buyer for the gems in Switzerland but had to get them there to collect the funds. At one point in the last year I actually sent her money for a new computer as she said that hers was not working properly and she needed a new one so we could continue communicating. After I sent her the money she told me that when she was leaving the bank that 4 men stopped her and robbed her at knifepoint and threatened to **** her.

This one is a Very elaborate Hoax complete with a webcam and FaceBook profile.
Professes to be a nursing student studying in Ghana, she has two months to go until graduation with a Masters - with a widowed Mother, and younger Brother. Father is Dead, they all live in a apartment / executive compound built by a western contracting firm, this is important because this is how she - it explains away the glaring obvious contradiction of US 110 / 60 Hz power outlets in various pictures when Ghana is on a 230 V / 50 Hz Power cycle. They are supported by an Uncle, professes to love to cook. Was jilted by a boy friend, whom slept with her best friend. She even has pictures of her and this supposed friend.
They also claim to be a devote Christian - Really? Thou shall not steal must have been over looked here....

Free communication weekend on Chemistry, the perp left a messenger id. I contacted the pretty lady and began a long series of chats with photo and video sharing, there were definitely red flags after reviewing what happened but I was mesmerized by the ******* model that seemed to be interacting with me.... They even at one point listed a link to a gold mining company website that really made me uneasy because it had not been updated since 2005. The complex scam to get me to tell them my mailing address, full name and some routines in how I spend my time.... went on for 1 week. Often PQ would not directly answer my questions but they claimed English as a second or third language and german was the native tongue.

Typical report. Cecilia initiated contact and almost immediately began asking for money. Wanted to come back to the states from Ghana and needed money.

She contacted me a few days ago and after 2 chats she said she wants to come to me I should help her to leave Afganistan. And she sends me ****** pictures I am sure that she will start to ask for money soon.

Contacted me on the dating site, we got into regular chat sessions and emails with photographs attached, told me she loved me and wanted to come and be with me.
Eventually exchanged phone numbers. When I tried to ring there was noone there but there were some strange sounds. Asked why the phone didn't work she told me her grand pa pa had set it up so it could only text, then asked me to send $200 so she could buy a phone we could talk on. I refused. She continued to send ever longer emails professing love and devotion.
It took awhile but I eventually found the above named scammer on this site, with all the same photographs she had sent me, and more.
I told her it was over, but she continues to email me claiming inocense.

She found me on the Chive dating site dating thechive and fit most all of the warning signs found on your web site. Unfortunately I read them only after corresponding with her for two months and wiring her by way of Western Union $400.00 US.

Clara Harrison claims to be of mixed race of Australian father and Ghanian mother who now lives in Ghana due to her fathers death. She sends you an email with pictures of a beautiful girl which I presume or of some model. Not long after making contact she gives you a story about needing money for rent or she will be out on street. She becomes very instant that you send money immediately and will email everyday she provides a western union account for money to be sent Clara Harrison Ghana/West Africa Agona NSABA Code 00233.

She wrote to me although she was not on Russian Cupid with her own photos. Then quickly we chat on Google Talk and then WhatsApp. She was too bossy and controlling thats why I stopped talking with her. Then I found out that she is here already.

She contacted me by e-mail from benaughty and wilddate4*** from the end of september and til today. She needed money fUrst for cabfare to the airport then customs issues, then taxes. When that was payed and on the way to the airport she said there was an accident and she was sent to hospital with a medical bill. I sent it to her and as they went out of the transfer Office she said they where robbed. All the money went through Western Union, Ria, and Money Gram and never in her name, only Maria and Marlene Jensen.The transfers happened 5-6 times in the amount of appox. $31000. I have not let on to her that I know it is a scam.

She ask to support her rent and i send her 250 $ because she lost her job.She lie about all even when i discover the pics which she send was stolen **** images.
She lie at first later she said thats happen at past.
Beware of her she is a scammer you can loose money if fall in love also broken heart.
All what she typing there is a lie.

Who initiated contact? - Me
How was contact initiated and which website did the contact originate from? - Match.com profile had email address in cryptic form.
How long did you correspond with scammer? - 3 days
Did you notice anything strange during your correspondence? - Bad English grammar and told me everything I wanted to hear.
How was the money request initiated and for what? - No, cut it off before that could happen.
What was the final of the story? - The last message sent was too well-written so I searched what she wrote and found it on someone else's profile.

I originally became involved with Ethel Weber though match. She initially made first contact with me. She claimed to be temporarily living with a friend in New Jersey. She told me when I first became acquainted with her she had to return to her home city of Accra in Ghana. I corresponded with Ethel for approximately 3 months. One of the most unusual requests she made was for me to quickly open a bank account so she could send Ghana money into the USA bank account. She wanted me to in-turn send those USA dollars back through money gram so she could convert it back into Ghana money. Fortunately after having talked to 2 different banks they felt that behavior was highly suspicious & thankfully for my benefit they refused to open a bank account under such circumstances. I sent her money through money gram 13 times for a total of $6,000.00. The money was requested to obtain a USA Visa & passport. An airline ticket which itinerary included stops in Dubai & JFK New York City then on into Las Vegas my home city. It was allegedly a one way ticket. Ethel Weber was the recipient of all 13 of the money gram transfers. We communicated by cell phone, Skype & through e-mail. Very early when we started communicating through Skype I asked her if we could video Skype & she claimed her laptop did not have a webcam.

She sent me interest on the site. I responded with the same. we caught up to each other on Int'l Cupids instant message and began to chat. She told me she didnt like the site because people had tried to scam her on it. After a few more messages she asked me to send her a web cam to Ghana (where she is visiting) so she could prove to me she is real. She said her webcam was broke. I asked why she was in Ghana. She said just to visit. I told her to buy one when she got home to the US and we could chat then...she quickly got upset and said bye. She knew she was caught. She isn't very good at scamming but she is trying.

I had contact with her via Thai-PV with name Dorothy Wayne. Than we used E mail queenydorothy12@yahoo.com She told me she's Australian and work as teacher in Ghana. Now I find her on this site.

First everything looks good and now she claim monye for visa and passport she say she cant get back to germany couse her mother inlaw is hateish.

I recently met this woman on Match.Com in mid December of 2015 and everything was fine and romantic and extremely heart warming for about 2 weeks. We spoke every day and shared our pasts, our dreams for the future, and planned out what I thought would be a great life together. Once I started living through one red flag after another I decided to do a Google search on her and was immediately directed to your website. To put a long story short between her getting caught at customs trying to bring 50kgs of gold here to the states without a permit, asking for thousands upon thousands of dollars to get new plane tickets and travelers checks, her mother die'ing after being hit by a ***** driver when she was walking over to the store and the ensuing money to cover those medical bills, then another plane ticket and money to have the gold shipped over here.

The woman is a psychopath. not only scammers, but also one that has hired hit men to **** someone before. She must be arrested immediately.
this is her words to me today. yes i really feel safe so well but Rose is my goal to **** her first before I come to you. If I lose so she will die soon. Her words written to me on Skype.

Typical African scammer that wants money for cam and cell phone so she can show her **** body.

Nice at first wanting money for video cam money for visa passport food.

Ok, other scammer from Ghana as usual, sent an email to me saying like they do from some dating site I never joined..! Her name used was Hawa Nuhu, which I can't pronounce just a African name of another bush bunny scammer till you make it clear no money coming her way then all transcription stop..! I laugh at this, it's better then any comedy club, and it's free..! Lol

This woman found me on OK, then provided me her skype address. She told me a story that she was working on a cargo ship, but had a son who was travelled to Ghana, and needed the money because he got into a car accident.

Known scammer.

I met a woman named Angel online through the Mingle2 dating site, and communicated with her for about one week. On the site, she claimed to be from Frankfurt, Germany, but in letters she said she really lived in the Bronx, New York; her stated age was 33, with a date of birth of July 10, 1986 (although other sites gave her date of birth as June 3, 1987). Very quickly, she wanted to move off the site and communicate through private email (andprez098@gmail.com).
In her letters, she professed to be a contract model but currently unemployed. She sent many photos in various suggestive poses. She said she was single, had no parents, and struggled to live on her own. She made no secret of wanting marriage and someone to support her in all ways, including finances.
When I searched her photos online, I discovered she was a known scammer in Ghana with multiple names (Jessy Crombia, Bernice Gyamfi Derry, Deloris Asiamah). All the photos she sent belonged to a ******* model.
