The SCARS Institute Encyclopedia of Scams

Twelve Years of Data
For more than twelve years, scam victims and volunteers reported the phone numbers, email addresses, names, and profiles that scammers used against them on AnyScam.com. That work now lives here, as the SCARS Institute AnyScam Database, rebuilt to make it easier to search, safer to use, and open to new reports.
Before you trust someone you met online, search for their phone number, email address, name, or profile link. You’ll see whether it has been reported to SCARS Institute, how often, and when. You can also read real messages that scammers have sent, with victims’ details removed, so you can learn to recognize their words before they reach you.
Help Protect Others
If a scammer contacted you, report their profile link, email address, or phone number. SCARS Institute staff review every report before it appears in the database.
Please keep in mind that a listing is a report, not proof. Scammers steal real people’s names and photos, and phone numbers pass from one owner to the next, so an innocent person can appear here. If something listed here belongs to you and is listed in error, use the removal request form at the bottom of this page, and we’ll review it. And if nothing turns up in your search, that doesn’t mean someone is safe: scammers change their numbers, addresses, and names constantly.

I don't tell lies and I hate Lairs, I do my best to attend services Sunday and try to pray every morning and every night before I lay down in bed.
I'm level headed, realistic and optimist! I do not think to enter anything unless I think it's right and if I can give at least 100% to it. Since my divorce time seemed to be right for me to enter a stable relationship as such, coupled with not yet to meet anyone I want to be with the long term. But with the weather changing and now I have more time to give 'me' and things I do is the right time for me to share with someone special meaning a woman with a slow hand''(as The Pointer Sisters sang) it would be a bonus.
I am very proud father of one lovely daughter called Shania, who is 15yrs & I don't wanna be with someone for the sake of having someone if you know what I mean? shania lives with me but goes to boarding school when I have contract. I was born on, 29-November(Albany) in New York City, My mom was portuguese and Dad was Demark. I was the only child of my late parents. I'm left alone with my daughter who has been my source of happiness since my Divorce time. I was educated in the states and has always had high hopes of state and top Engineer.
In general I am a different company, a creative person, spontaneous, and tactile and even though I like the finer things in life, I am not materialistic, I worked very hard for what I have and appreciate it. I hate to offend, cannot satisfy the hypocrisy, racism and people are nice titling other in public. I do not like conflict or relationships be affected, but would have preferred a 'mutual understanding and respect' for each other. I do not mind constructive criticism and I believe in total honesty.
I'm down to earth, caring, loving and loyal person with morals and virtues of my own, but rather open-minded, fairly easy going, witty, intelligent, and rather irreverent, sometimes ..... I'm quite humble and appreciate the little things in life that people do to me and that I am capable of doing for others. Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to make someone
feel special, loved, wanted and cared for. For the right woman I would have given my all. I tend to not ask for much, circumstances have made me very independent and proud, therefore, are not too hard to please! Surprisingly, most of them are pretty conventional too, and surprisingly I did not land in my area since the time I was alone, maybe because I like to share, enjoy the people and continue to believe that there is someone out there that I should be sharing rest of my life.
I try to cherish every moment of whatever I do, wherever I am, that never is with the value & everything I have.I'm a man who lives life as it comes to me. I do not worry about tomorrow because it will be here no matter what I do. The best days of my life are still yet to come when I meet a special woman. I cannot afford to play mind games because it hurts me really a lot! Be through the worst pain in the report is not all that easy sharing with people simply because it hurts.
Music: I like the soul, soft jazz, reggae, R & B, smooth groves, some country and some rock (not much tho '). My all time favorite artists are Arron Neville, Kenny G, Luther Van dross and Diana Ross.Fav Songs Theme from Mahogany & Strangers on the Shore
Movies: Action, thrillers and some comedies. I watch television every day rarely. My favorite actors. Hmmm ..... I like Wesley Snipes, Kevin Costner, John Travolta, Julie Walters, Sandra Bullock, Robert de Niro, Denzyl Washington, Samuel L Jackson. Fav movie Body Guard
Food: I can not say that there is something I like but if I had to choose something that would be seafood, I'm not sorry for fishing alone! I like trying new recipes and flavors so I can cook anything and like to experiment, but my best is steaks, roast dinner on Christmas Dinner sand I guess. I have a sweet tooth, I prefer salted, cheese, etc., but have a desert on rare occasions.
Books I'm reading - I've been reading a series of books over the last while by Jacqueline Carey, 'Kushiel's Trilogy',
except there are more books now than just the three! I love fantasy and science fiction but these days probably more fantasy than anything else. I used to read Arthur C Clarke when I was growing up, H.G. Wells, Isaac Asimov, and many more.
After reading Tolkein's 'Lord of the Rings' over 30 years ago, fantasy seemed to really open up and it's my favourite switch off these days. Have read so many authors, it's hard to remember them all. Have read all of Jean Auel's novels (set in a pre-historic world), Anne McCaffrey, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Janny Wurst, David Eddings, to name a tiny, tiny few. When I was growing up, I was always allowed to read for half and hour after I went to bed, so my love of reading stems from
there. She read his first novel by Rudyard Kipling when he was only 6 and read it in 10 days! He's never stopped since! He's also written his first book and is hoping to publish, so am keeping my fingers crossed. I like to write poetry and had a publication, I have a collection that should be collected in a book published .... and maybe one day?
Financially; I'm stable and independent. I always provide everything for my daughter that he needs in life to be what she wants to be. Luckily, I have my own fully furnish 5 bedroom house and two luxurious cars... so life is good. I feel like I've accomplished a lot with my time on this planet, but still see that life without someone special to spend with is sometimes boring.
Faith; I was brought up as a Catholic and went to church every week until I was 13 years old when I was allowed to choose for myself I believe in the Holy Trinity and I believe in the Word of God. I always allow God to be the first and last in everything I do, because that's how I was raised. I always take my daughter to church so that she can at least experience some of the "ritual" and gain an understanding of the church,
etc.I am NOT a racist and I wouldn't mind if you share with me about your believe.
