I actually knew this man personally for a little whIle when he was stationed where I live. He ended up trying to delete all of his social media because all of his information and pictures were stolen. He would get messages from angry woken that sent these scammer money. Sucks for people that fall for the scam. Sucks for the man who has had to deal with this for years because both the scammer and the women make his life hard.

I completely agree. I spoke with the real Rico from the picture and he had been put through hell because of this stuff. It's really frustrating because the fake has even used pictures with his kids in them.

Ladies, for the future references please do not contact photo victims. First of all it's against this site policy, second it's against a cyber law. Victims of cyber crimes which contact other victims may find themselves in a bad ordeal of offence, some got even convicted of harassment. Be safe online.
Confronting the scammer is WRONG!!! DON'T enlighten criminals with your wisdom. REPORT & BLOCK.
PHOTO VICTIM - "Do not confront the owner of the pictures, as they are victims themselves! You will only serve to further the terror and harm !" Silence Is Golden!!! I speak Polish.

Question just so I understand the rules. I can't contact the victim even if I know home personally? I spoke with him about it because he's a friend/former lover. Does that count as against this sites rules?

Well you said yourself he had been put through hell because of this stuff. It is really not helpful that all internet women pile up on a real photo owner rather than posting the scam used details. This site is about scam used details only. We never promote any confrontation. :)
Please try your best to block ALL your scammer´s still incoming messages and calls!

What is all this? => The FAQ

The scammers vs. Why is "he" still doing it?

Why is alerting the man in the pictures DANGEROUS?

Completely understand and agree with the rules. I've never posted a picture of the real Rico, so I will have to assume someone else did.

Reome66
Hello
I was just going Thur the website hoping to meet someone nice and your profile just made me halt at your spot. I had to summon the courage to mail and would love to get to know each other better and hopefully become friends and see where this leads us. If you truly care about meeting me kindly email me on my private email : elway66@yahoo.com. Hope to hear from you soon (introduction was copy-pasted from the Internet including mistakes "Thur" instead of through) viewtopic.php?t=100604
Reome

Reome66 23:52
Hello, it's nice hearing from u, first to start with, My name is T. J Reome and I'm kind of new to this whole thing so i really don't know if it works, presently im single and ready to mingle with the right lady that comes my way, i would like for u to know that i am not up here in search for a sex partner, i am in search of a girl that is real, a girl that would love me for me and a girl that is ready to take up to her responsibilities, i am saying this becos i have been badly treated in the past, so right now if i must go into any relationship, it must be a long lasting one that would lead to marriage,well my hobbies are reading swimming, horse racing, clubbing, and bike racing. Well i think that is all i gat to say for now, until when next i hear from u.take care of ur self and God bless.

Now I know why we are here. I know why we live.

You are my purpose and I do not know what to do without you. How a few hours could change a life.. Am helplessly falling in love with u... Wishing u a wonderful and blessed day ahead.. (completely copy-pasted, word to word)

I enjoy cuddling while watching a movie or just having a drink and talking about whatever comes to mind.

What I am doing with my life

Things I like about myself
I love my body stature and the way i handle issues

My favourite outdoor activities are
Hanging out and going to the beach
