NOW GOING BY THE NAME HARRY HARDSON harryhardson512@gmail.com AKA Harry Edwards Hardson :twisted:

I met this guy on Chemistry.com. I'm not a sucker for trusting people without knowing them really well and when this guy started with the "soul mate" "I love you" "will give up everything and move where you are" "I'm leaving for Afghanistan tomorrow" "I have a godson in Ghana who needs groceries" (I did get suckered for $40 on this one and sent groceries through ghanamart.com but what I told this jerk I was sending and what I sent were two completely different things) I knew I was getting scammed.

I played along for a while still trying to find him in the scam pages even tried Spokeo and they didn't have any record of him. He even claimed to live not more than an hour away from me. I got a new cell number and called him, that was one of the first confirmations that he was a scammer because the phone number (724) 268-0227 is a Voip and not a cell phone located in PA. I traced the phone number but could only get a signal close to where he is located.

The conversation last night was that he was selling his home (there is a delay so he can look up nearby cities to tell you the right city) and that he is retiring from the military at the end of August 2013. He has a german shepherd dog called Beamer and he is a contractor for the city of Logan in Utah. He did slip a couple of times when he said he was going to open his own business when he got back - but he already said he was a contractor with his own business. When he told me he had put his house on the market, I asked for the address because I used to live in that city and he couldn't give me the address. :D

He told me he was of German decent and that his wife had died of breast cancer 6 years ago. He hasn't been with anyone since that time and kept repeating "don't you think it's time for me to find love?" When I told him that I get it and I'm not stupid he stopped saying it.

He uses the words "honey" and "baby" a lot - like every other word. Last night he told me he was sending me money to pay for the groceries for his godson Felix Gyampo 123 October Street phone number +233232943151 email gyampofelix@yahoo.com - he asked for me to pay for delivery of the items. I called ghanamart and they said that they are a legitimate business and they get scammed a lot. The man I talked too seemed legit - but who knows. As soon as "Harry" told me "Felix" lived in Ghana I was pretty much thinking scammer!!!

He began the conversations very religiously - that he reads the bible, that God brought us together all that crap. Luckily for me I'm not so religious!!!

Last night he asked me to send more groceries to Felix - which always came mid way through a conversation - no consistency and the English was bad even for a German who has lived in the US for 20 years. He told me to send fish this time - don't know why. Then he starts with the online sex...Can't say it was good...he would never take the lead and never answer questions I was asking. He always wanted me to lead the sex conversation. So I played along - laughing the whole time... Sorry ladies if this offends but I really wanted this guy to reveal who he was.

Last night he said "I am going to email my bank today and tell them I need to get you money for Felix's groceries because I don't want you to pay for everything." Then he said "what is your banking preference???"" I didn't answer him, told him I was tired and we would talk later about it.

The other red flag was that he was always asking about my kids. I actually thought he was a pedophile because of how many questions he asked about my kids. Constantly kept saying "I love kids. My wife couldn't have them...I always wanted them." :thinking:

He sent a couple of the photos that are already on this website to me and he used one on Chemistry.com. He has closed his Chemistry.com profile down for now. That profile is HarryHardson512. He closed it on 7/9/13 I guess when he thought he had hooked me!

Anyway, that is my story. I'm going to keep talking to him to see what he does and wants me to send next. Will post here as time goes on. Will contact Military Police with this information as well.

Thanks for having this site - it's great!

About Me
Firstly, I do not see myself as a typical man, I am just a little different, in a positive meaning. I am not interested in things only for everyone's being interested in it. My life is open for every positive experience: romantic walks along the beach and conversation near the fireplace in the night. I love art, and I am close to everything related to it: books, music, theatre, cinematograph, architecture and painting. This is an endless inspiration for me. On the other hand, I like active way of spending my spare time, such as sports, camping and travelling. I adore visiting the places that remind us people of ancient ages. ans when it come to music i like to listen to Oldies Rock & Roll, Cajun & Celtic music, some hard rock and a little of almost every other type you can think of.

badoo
Dream 55, New York, NY

Well Many described me as being easy going, optimistic, genuine, honest, sincere and deep. I love to laugh and enjoy it when I can make others laugh. I am lighthearted, creative, confident, quite adventurous, spontaneous, a true romantic and believe trust, honesty and communication is a must to making any relationship work. I try to be balanced in mind and soul, so I enjoy working out, learning … new things and am deeply Honesty. I like spending time outdoors, traveling, I will love cuddling up on the couch with someone special and talking the night away. I know what I want for myself and out of life and am at peace with all things. I believe you should need someone because you love them, not love them because you need them. So appreciate those in your life while they are in your life. Seems most do not know what they had until it is gone and what good is it then? Sing like no one is listening, dance like no one is watching and love like you have never been hurt.countrysmile001@yahoo.com

welcome to RS and thanks for update :) if you still have other info please feel free to post them :)
we had a fight last nite as i asked him was he a scammer he was very angry
told and argue with him that he was scammer is not wise :( . it will making him a better scammer ;) and sure he will denial it and have lot excuse of it. Manipulated people and made them believe and even falling love with him is his good act, after he got your trust than he will asking $$$$$ or other from you. So better you ignore, block, and stop communicated with him. it this way he will not able to do a brain wash on you. And you will easily moving on. Hope you already block him from your FB/ email contact list, etc. More info you add here so more ladies will saving coz of it :) ;)
