- Today's tip! (6/5/2017)
I have a new tip. When you get a phone number from someone (Cell or landline), I found a place you can join to find out their last name and where they live. https://premium.whitepages.com/auth/login Now yes it does cost. I joined just for one month. It was 9.99 and I think I get 10 phone numbers I can search. There are higher priced ones for 19.95 and 29.95 (click on the link and read). I was texting with a guy who sounded okay and I wanted to do a little snooping to see. I usually google the phone number and came across this site. So I thought it would give it try. It gives out last names so I can search on the web or facebook to see what you can find out about them. See if they are real or not. I am not getting any kickbacks to mentioning them but I thought it was a good tool to use. Nowadays with so many scammers and liars it never hurts to do your research a little more thoroughly. I think I should be in the detective business instead of the secretarial business. LOL!!!!
- While I was on vacation... (6/3/2017)
I meant to post that I would be out of town for a week and forgot. I just got back from Disney World with my daughter. We had a great time. Anyway, while I was gone I got an email from an oldie (someone who has contacted me the past). Paul Skroch. He emails me a link to click on. Now what is my rule about this clicking on links from someone you don't know? DON'T CLICK ON THEM!! Right!!! So I just deleted it. Now for something new. The picture below is from one guy. He keeps changing his name on his profile with a new picture and clicking the meet me button for me. I think he's done this about 10 times. I finally messaged him once and said I wasn't interested and I know he keeps changing his name and picture. Well he responds back that he is married and doesn't know what I'm talking about. LOL! I didn't respond back but blocked him. Anyway he is a player so if you run across him on the sites, ignore him.

Thanks and God bless you. William Flowers I guess since I’ve been doing the dating sites, my keen sense of something is not right is very high right. · First off, the language is terrible (1st red flag) · Secondly, why would I send a check for a place that I haven’t been inside or met with the owner. · As always, I look the house up on the City of St. Louis owner listings. Guess what, Williams Flowers doesn’t own the building. So I emailed the Alderwoman for this area and she responded back right away. Here is what she wrote: Let me see what I can find out about this from the Recorder of Deed's office. I do know these scams happen so you are smart to tread lightly. I am anxious to see what she finds out. Now this property wasn’t listed on Craigslist. I posted in the area where you can what you are looking for so he contacted me. Tonight when I got on Craigslist, the house was listed. But it only had 2 pictures. It was the house I saw pictures of. (And drove by on my lunch today). So I thought okay, move on. I emailed him back and said I live in the county and wanted to stay there. I didn’t zing him like I would a guy from the dating sites. Now – her comes another one: When I got home from work and looked at craigslist I saw a house that sounded good but didn’t have pictures. Which makes me suspicious. So emailed and asked for pictures. And now, here is this email: Good Evening, How are you and your family?

Please visit http://www.usaid.gov/, you can also support our mission.All we care about is someone to take very good care of it with passion of it being it's own. A colleague of mine introduced me to this internet site of advertisement when the formal reality company i gave the house to manage for me since am not in Saint Louis, MO but due to the high price they put on the house which make people not to rent the house from them so i have to withdraw the house from them and start doing the rental by my self.

Nery R Vasquez Well right away I checked the ownership of the house and guess what? She doesn’t own it. So I emailed that alderwoman. I don’t expect to hear from her till next week. I haven’t responded back to the person who emailed me. I’m starting to feel like a scammer magnet. Not sure that’s the right way to phrase it. But I am seriously thinking about going into the detective business. Dating is hard enough now this? LOL!! You have to laugh. I know God has a plan for everyone. Maybe mine is to catch scammers. Tell the next the one comes along and I have another story to tell, have a great day!!!

So I'm at work this morning and I see a Google Hangout message. Now I'm not chatting with anyone and the ones I were, I've blocked. So I opened it up. Below is the conversation we had. I guess I was pretty harsh on this guy. But I don't recall having any conversation with him through POF though he said we did. I usually keep good notes on this. But the pictures looked familiar. Perhaps someone else used his pictures like in my previous post. Anyway, Below is the conversation.

- Why do I continue to do this? (4/14/2017)
As I continue my search on the dating sites for that one special guy, and all I keep finding are these liars and guys posing as our military I guess some wonder why I continue to do this. I wonder that sometimes myself. But what started out as something to try and see what happens has turned in to something more for me. I feel like I am on a special journey. I want to get the word out to everyone (men included), not to fall for these liars and scammers online. Every couple of weeks I try to send my blog to different places online to advertise it. I want to get the word out. So that no one falls for these scammers. So I am asking you to share my blog with everyone you know. Send it to the masses!!! Get the word out. This blog has become a passion for me and one I plan to continue until Mr. Right comes along.
