I fear that my best friend is being conned by a scammerScammerA Scammer or Fraudster is someone that engages in deception to obtain money or achieve another objective. They are criminals that attempt to deceive a victim into sending more or performing some other activity that benefits the scammer. she met on Facebook Dating. She is a widow age 68 and is very lonely and desperate for love. Anyway, I had been gone on a vacation and didn’t see her for maybe 3 weeks. When I returned she tells me of this man, Ken Morgan, she had been talking to. She is honestly smitten. After she was telling me all about him, I knew in my gut he is not real and his gorgeous pictures are fake. Supposedly he was raised in Ottawa Canada but has a house in Richmond California. He is a big shot contractor for Shell Oil and does business in both Canada and the US so is back and forth all the time. He is divorced for 6 years and has a grown daughter/son in California. He tells her he is working on a contract with 2 other guys and when it ends at the end of year they will earn around 3 million dollars. So in her words “He doesn’t need my money” of which she does very well on her annuities and other monies left to her when her husband died 5 years ago. He has a Facebook profile which is typical for these scammers – only 3 photos, friends are not listed and no info on him at all. I looked at one of his photos and there were 23 reactions that I could go to their profiles. All most everyone of them says they are from Manchester UK. I asked her that if he is from Canada and has a residence in the US then why isn’t there anyone from these places that react to his photo? No answer. She told me she had told him that she would have no issues with flying somewhere to meet him and he told her “Oh No! I don’t want you flying anywhere, I want you to be safe.” After she told me this, I pointed my finger up and told her “That is definitely a red flag of a scammer!” She kept defending him and that he has promised as soon as he can he is going to come see her and she doesn’t need to go anywhere to see him. I told her and when he does tell her he is coming, something will come up and he can’t make it. We live in a small community in Wyoming with a very small airport with only 2 incoming/departing flights to Denver a day. I told her she should let him know this so when he does come. Her answer “Oh I’m sure he has his own private jet or will charter one.” (I shake my head to myself for the 8th time!). I asked if she has actually talked to him on the phone and she says he has and has an accent that she has to turn the volume up in order to understand. I tell her if he is from Canada and the US what kind of accent does he have that she can’t understand. Her answer was he was raised in Ottawa so may French? I don’t buy it! And another red flag is that they communicate not through the Facebook dating app but on a Google messaging platform. At this time, she is getting upset with anything I am trying to tell her about being scammed so I just shake my head to myself AGAIN! While I am there, he is sending her romantic memes of love. I am thinking like what now he and you are in Junior High?!She tells me that he is sending her a present/package and is excited to see what it is. So now he has her address. Anyway, we then leave to go to our local bar and grill for the evening. I can tell she is upset and very quiet. She is on her phone a lot and going into the bathroom for extended periods of times. I finally ask her what is going on and she says she told him that I am telling her he is a scammer and that we are best friends, and I am just very worried about her. He comes back to tell her he is going to come as soon as he can, and I will be the first person he will want to meet to prove that he is real. I told her GOOD! I hope so for your sake!” She continued to be on the phone messaging back and forth and by this time I am done with harassing her about it. We haven’t talked since and mainly on my part because I can’t keep my mouth shut. I did a search on him through PeopleLooker and the Ken Morgans in the Richmond California are definitely not him. I don’t know how to do a people search in Canada. I told my daughter about him, and she got on Facebook and sent a friend request to him, but I doubt he will accept. Oh, and that’s another thing…I asked my friend if they were now Facebook friends and she said no he hasn’t accepted her friend request…yet.
Besides just sitting back and waiting for this to break her heart, I don’t know what to do.

This “lady” has pictures in her profile that are from a 45 year old German journalist named Judith Rakers, but she pretends to be Juliette Manflot, born in Belgium 32 years ago and now living in France. I got suspicious because she was acting like I was the one, which is odd when one is 38 years older. So I got out of her claws before things could get worse. This is her profile, and again, the picture on her profile is not her. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100070299895326

Beware of a “Larry Barry” on Facebook
Same thing happened to me. I opened a new FB profile as my phone crashed. Suddenly 3 guys contact me via fb. It was obvious they were all a hoax but this one guy Lewis Glenn, he’s good, oh yeah. Even though I knew I was being conned I have continued just to see how far he thinks he can take it. Great accent, picture of him and his dog (I feel sorry for the guy who this pic really is of). This Lewis guy must have found the general area I live in, where I was born etc, He really studied my profile and obviously did some research. He has an accent, sounds French to me which immediately sent the NIGERAL RED FLAG UP. Says its German, LOL. Anyway I did sent him a stupid $25 ITUNES card, pic of front and back. Boy he wouldn’t leave me alone until I sent it. Also like many others, convinced me to go to Google Hangouts to chat. Blocked me on messenger as I could see when he was online. I don’t know how these people live with themselves and sleep at night. The harm they can do to so many innocent people just makes me sick.

This “lady” has pictures in her profile that are from a 45 year old German journalist named Judith Rakers, but she pretends to be Juliette Manflot, born in Belgium 32 years ago and now living in France. I got suspicious because she was acting like I was the one, which is odd when one is 38 years older. So I got out of her claws before things could get worse. This is her profile, and again, the picture on her profile is not her.

Beware of a “Larry Barry” on Facebook
Same thing happened to me. I opened a new FB profile as my phone crashed. Suddenly 3 guys contact me via fb. It was obvious they were all a hoax but this one guy Lewis Glenn, he’s good, oh yeah. Even though I knew I was being conned I have continued just to see how far he thinks he can take it. Great accent, picture of him and his dog (I feel sorry for the guy who this pic really is of). This Lewis guy must have found the general area I live in, where I was born etc, He really studied my profile and obviously did some research. He has an accent, sounds French to me which immediately sent the NIGERAL RED FLAG UP. Says its German, LOL. Anyway I did sent him a stupid $25 ITUNES card, pic of front and back. Boy he wouldn’t leave me alone until I sent it. Also like many others, convinced me to go to Google Hangouts to chat. Blocked me on messenger as I could see when he was online. I don’t know how these people live with themselves and sleep at night. The harm they can do to so many innocent people just makes me sick.
