I was contacted through Instagram... his name was Howard Jordan Wilkinson and he said he was on a peace keeping mission in Africa. He asked me to create a Viber account. He said he was in love and wanted to be exclusive... he said he was requesting leave to come visit and then his phone started messing up.. I told him he sounded like a scammer and he got defensive and mad saying he never asked for any money.. then he said his friend in a town in Africa could fix his phone but he wanted to trade fixing it for a $50 apple gift card.. then he slowly stopped texting... now all accounts are gone...

Wilson Johnson Estes - 413-239-4177

Postby Dgirl » Sat Feb 16, 2019 1:43 pm

“Wilson”, age 37 was from OK Cupid. He said his name was Wilson Johnson Estes & he was on deployment in Syria. He said he had a 9 year old son and was a single dad. Having been catfished before, I quickly noticed some odd things-

- his grammar wasn’t the best
- he would ask what I ate a lot (odd to include, but it followed the pattern)
- both parents had died and he had no siblings
- he would gloss over some questions I asked
- came on strong in that could I love him, he wanted to settle down, etc
- asked if I owned my own house (the previous scammer asked how much $ I made)
- didn’t come out and ask for money yet but was slowly building to it
- used odd language- like “cinema” for the movies

Asked for pics & sent the below pics. Also sent 3 pictures of a little boy (claiming it was his son) and 2 of his dog (German Shepherd). When I googled his name, I came across Jason Estes, who apparently is the actual person whose pics are being used to scam women. Unfortunately if it seems to be too good to be true, it probably is. This type of scammer slowly builds to asking for help/$ after texting for awhile. He also asked if I had Viper. The cell he used was 413-239-4177. He’s slick, so be wary. After I found out it was a scam I blocked him.

Hopefully this post helps someone else to prevent them from getting scammed.

What I am looking for is to meet new people and see how it goes. Where it may lead. I will list a few things I like and dislike, but do not want to throw everything out here because then what would we have to chat about in person?

A few likes: Mass, my children/grandchildren, Music, Arts, good food, laughter, nights out, outdoors, baseball & hockey game, a great glass of wine, and lounging around sometimes. A few dislikes: Cooking, spicy foods, rude people, my bad hearing, and not having a partner to share romantic/fun nights out with.

This scammer contacted me on POF. He claimed to be a man called Thomas John from Russia that came to the US at age 18. Huge red flag for me as there is nothing Russian about that name. He also said he was in the army deployed in Africa. Started to say that his accts are frozen while on deployment and he cant buy the food he likes. He never asked for money but it seemed like he wanted to. Another red flag for me. I'm always cautious and google everyone. Surprise Surprise Thomas John didn't exist anywhere. So I decided to do a pic search and found out that it was a scammer. I contacted POF and his profile has been removed. If he comes back he wont be using the same pics.

He is a coward and this man has millions of dollars now he will keep going and going because that's how he makes his money this man has an African accent ... the faster this man is found wherever he is . Needs to be stopped asap .. I declared bankruptcy because of this asshole last July... but please rise above this and dont send any money to any man ... IF THEY TRULY LOVE YOU THEY SHOULD COME TO YOU ... if not they are a coward and they shouldn't be the one for you to marry ..., Please discern everything and if u have doubts then DONT .... Find a man with Live and Care and trust and Honesty with in his Heart , dont always believe the words people say , EVERY woman deserves to Be LOVED ...
