Met on Match.com May 1, 2014. We communicated until June 13, 2014. He said he worked as a General Fund Manager for Vanguard International located in Kent England. He was working on a large financial deal that he had been working on for 2 years that culminated in a trip to Dubai. While he was in Dubai, his mother fell sick in Palmero, Italy. She passed away and he attended the funeral. He returned to Dubai to finalize this deal. He used my name as a "place holder" to purchase shares from Vanguard as he couldn't while he was employed with them. He wanted to open his own business and this is how he planned on making the money to do so. He was going to earn this 11 million and come home and we were going to buy a house and open a business together.

I received emails from Vanguard International that I was to confirm my name and address only. Then I received an email from a Suisse Bank that said the draft was deposited in the amount of 11 million and to withdraw it I needed to open up a bank account in the amount of $28,600. This is where I finally removed myself emotionally and dropped one of his pictures into Google Images. I found him listed on MaleScammers.com. I just found these reports from other women today and decided to enter my own.

Now he is Alex Manolito Gregory

Met on Match.com September 7, 2014. We communicated until yesterday, January 8, 2014. He said he worked as a General Fund Manager for Capital Fund Investment Group located in Kent England. He was working on a large financial deal that he had been working on for years that culminated in a trip to Dubai. Just before he went to Dubai, , his mother fell sick in Palmero, Italy. She passed away and he attended the funeral. He returned to Dubai to finalize this deal. He used my name as a "place holder" to purchase shares from Capital Fund as he couldn't while he was employed with them. He wanted to open his own business and this is how he planned on making the money to do so. He was going to earn this 11 million and come home and we were going to buy a house and open a business together.

I received emails from Capital Fund Investments that I was to confirm my name and address only. Then I received an email from a Suisse Bank that said the draft was deposited in the amount of 11 million and to withdraw it I needed to open up a bank account in the amount of $28,600. Unfortunately, I sent him about $8,500. He said he was able to get the rest and only needed this much. I didn't find his name, but the emails I received from him are verbatim of the emails I have seen online. The letters from the bank and the investment company are identical. Even the 11 million dollars number is exactly the same as the one he sent to me. I just found these reports from other women today and decided to enter my own.

Met this man on Match.com e-mailing just about everyday from May 1 till June 18 th 2014. Talked on the phone several times. I believed in him saying he worked as a Consultant Fund Manager for Vanguard Investment International. Wanted to resigned with them and open his own business with new partners in Dubai. Used my name and address as an investor wanting me to be partner with him. Said he used all of his own money to start the business in Dubai but needed my assistance in the amount of $ 28,600.00 to open a account at Suisse Crediti Union in Switzerland for the profit made in the investors certificate I went to my bank and they assisted me in a wire transfer to the account that was given. Also his mother passed away that lived in Italy during his business in Englnad before going to Dubai, stating his mother wants him to have his own business and not let the British work him to death. I am a fool to believe and made a mistake and wired the money he needed to the acount given who I thought was given by Vanguard Investment Internatinal.. I just want to make sure other women knows about this person who is very dishonest and a scammer. I learned the hard way maybe I can help others with this information.

Scam Artist...

My advises to all the ladies out there; don't get involve with anyone that live far away, and that you can meet them after a few emails back and forth. You just waste your time with all these scam artists. Especially if they said they're original from another country...but now living in America, then shortly after you write back and forth a few times, they'll tell you that they got a big contract with the Malaysia Government, Nigeria Government, Singapore government, worth millions and millions of dollars, etc...etc...

Stick with the good old American Men. You have better chances to get a nice man than dealing with those European thugs...

I've been scammed a few times, mostly emotionally. They didn't get chance to ask for money before I found out and dump them. Only once that involved money and I regretted it deeply.

he's a scam artist alright...

I was in the same situation as Roxanne, Chris, Pam. Same romance letters, going from May 1 to late June. I stopped correspondence with him after I saw his profile on Google, Male. Scammers. I copied some of the letters he wrote to those ladies (just like what he wrote to me) and email to him. He sent me an email back and threaten to harm me if I ever sent him another email.

I notified the FBI and forwarded all the letters he sent me, including the one he threaten that he'd hunt me down and hurt me.

He changed his tone a 180 degrees. He call me a prostitutes, etc... instead of My Lady, My Love, My Life....

Mario Elber Lucas is the man that contacted me thru match.com. We have been communicating for a little over a month. My sister found out and found this website and checked it out. She showed me a report from a woman that had been contacted the same way name was Mario Valentino.

When I read the report the discription she relayed was "verbatum" to what I had recieved, word for word.

He used scripture, told me that he was in the UK working for Vanguard International as a fund manager that his Mother suddenly died, he had to go to Italy. Which delayed our meeting. Everything this woman reported, happened the same.

He asked me to give my name and address so he could retire from Vanguard but had to complete one last large transaction. He was approached by some very large investors and needed me to act as an investor just by name. Then when the deal was done I would only have to respond to an email from Vanguard to verify name and address.

Then he would come back to the states and we would live wealthy and happy, etc, etc,etc.

I have not tipped my hand yet as I just found out and have not recieved any thing from them to verify anything nor has he asked for any further info. Just that when I get it I only need to tell them that Mario Lucas is my fund manager and I have given him all rights and permission to handle any transactions from here.

I need to know what to do here, he does not know that I know yet, I want to catch this guy, he has hurt me emotionally and I do not want or need him to hurt me financially as I don't have much, but am 61 and need not to be involved in any illegal processes. Never have don't need it now.

So I am doing this with a plead to anyone who can help me, guide me on how to handle this from here. He needs to be stopped. I am afraid, I am scared, I don't know what can happen here for sure, I just know it cannot be good.
