Joined this site after being scammed on Facebook. Thought this was a safe site since it was advertised in my church bulletin. Posted my profile and after a week met a Jonathan Smith from Nevada. We spoke every day for 9 months 3-4x a day. We chatted on Yahoo Messenger too. Our relationship grew and I fell for him.To make a long story short... my brother searched the Internet and found that this guy had 7 different aliases and a different profile for each one. I got myself involved in a scam where he would order clothing, computers, watches and have them shipped to me. In turn I would ship to him paying for international shipping to Ghana where he was so called working with his brother. He was a real estate developer from Switzerland working in Ghana, building an estate. I found out none of this was true, he wasn't the guy in the photo and all items shipped to me were bought with stolen credit cards. I was so upset since I am so honest and would never do anything illegal. For two weeks I couldn't eat or sleep. Had to take tranquilizers to calm down. I then became paranoid that I was going to get arrested. I filed a report with the police to cover myself.
I told Jonathan all of this so probably has a new alias now. He was supposed to come to meet me but had this job in Ghana then go into a car accident and almost died. I didn't wait around for the next excuse to come to see me. I am going to contact catholicmatch to see if they will refund my membership fee. If not then I will sue for the stress and emotional pain I was caused. Stay off all dating web sites... most of them are scams. Unless you can meet the person locally. That is the only way to survive. Would u believe Jonathan called to apologize to me. He saw what a nice person I was and hated what he was doing to me. This was after I caught him.
