same here.. it happens to my mom also.. she met a London-based architect named lorence walter. few days after he told my mom that he sent us electronic gadgets such as laptop, IPHONE4, ipod, ps2, ps3, bags, perfumes etc and 10thousand pounds. attached with his message through my email account is a airway bill under ATLANTIC EXPRESS AND CARGO, but as i reviewed the bill, i've found out that we have to pay the remaining balance amounting to $1, 115.. we ask the architect what is that for and how could we track the package, he just told us to wait because the cargo company will call us once the box has arrived here in the Philippines and the balance that we have to pay is for the tax since it would be deliver here in our country and he even told us that if we do not pay the tax, his package would be forfeited.. that's make me think how come it would be deliver us for only two days to think that the delivery date is holiday here. then a filipina called my mom telling her to pay $1, 115 or Php50, 000.00 via western union under the name of ALFRED ALEXANDRA, within four hours or else we will not get it anymore.. but when i asked the filipina what's our assurance that it is real and not a scam, she just said that they will text or call us. i asked her what else aside from call and text, because i've red a lot of complaints regarding this.. she pause for a while and buckle up while saying she could not do anything if we don't want to believe her. then she hung up, just like that.. i am telling this because don't want this thing to happen ever again.. hope you guys will learn from these complaints..

HELLO EVERYONE. I AM SHARING THIS POST WITH YOU BECAUSE I HAVE EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR THING THAT ALMOST VICTIMIZED ME IN A 'BRIDE SCAM'. A CERTAIN LORENCE WALTER, A LONDON-BASED ARCHITECT SENT ME LOVE LETTERS AND A FAKE AIRLINE TICKET (KLM) TELLING ME THAT HE IS GOING TO VISIT ME HERE IN CEBU. HE CLAIMS THAT HIS MIDDLE NAME IS "HASLEY" AND THAT HIS OFFICE AND RESIDENCE ADDRESSES ARE:

"VagdIa & Holmes groups of architect company..this is my company address...Covent/St. Nicholas St, Coventry, CV1 4LY...this is my home address...23 Stanway Rd
Shirley, Solihull, West Midlands B90 3JD, UK.."

AND YESTERDAY A FILIPINA GAVE ME A CALL CLAIMING THAT LORENCE WALTER WAS ON HOLD IN MALAYSIA BECAUSE HE BROUGHT A LOT OF MONEY WITH HIM. AND HE NEEDS TO PAY A PENALTY OF 4, 000 DOLLARS. AND THAT HE WAS ABLE TO PAY ONLY 3, 000 DOLLARS AND HE ASKS ME TO PAY FOR THE ADDITIONAL 1, 000 DOLLARS AND HE WILL PAY ME WHEN HE ARRIVES TO THE PHILIPPINES TO MARRY ME. OF COURSE I TOLD HIM I AM NOT HIS WIFE AND TOLD HIM TO CALL HIS LONDON-BASED FRIENDS TO HELP HIM OUT. AND I TOLD HIM I COULD NOT HELP HIM. HE IS USING THIS MOBILE NUMBER +[protected].

THE PHOTO HERE IS THE ONE HE IS USING OF WHICH HE CLAIMS HE IS THE SAME PERSON.

Good thing my mom entrusted me with her Facebook and made me read the messages sent by Lorence Walter, a 51 year old guys from Great Britain, an Architect, broke up with his gf, and blah blah blah. I have already noticed at first, and doubted so i searched for his name etc., and found a lot of complaints against this scammer. He too tried to scam my mom by telling her that he would be going to her place to meet her.

This are mostly the opening lines of the scammers:

"Hello, how are you..nice to meet you..my name is Lorence Walter and i am interested to you..i am 51 years old now, i live in Great Britain..i work as a architect in one company here...i am single..i am searching my wife to be...i am tired to be alone and work always, i want to be complete someday...if you are my woman i searching for pls dont hesitate to message me back...hope we can be friend, i like to know you...Godbless"

Hope this serves as a warning to all too...Thanks...

But he speaks with horrible Indian or Pakistanian accent! His mobile number [protected], he called me many times!

Hi, am a Filipina, I received personal messages too from an FB foreigner friend courting and promising to marry me. He told me to come here in the Philippines. Until he promised to send me money to buy properties to stay here in the Philippines. Then, he sent an airway bill but there appears a balance of 3, 000.00 payable upon receipt of the package by the recipient. I told the sender that I will not receive the parcel and to receive it himself if he comes to the Philippines. Until i told the sender that i suspect it is scam. Our communication was automatically blocked. Then a filipina called up that my package is in malaysia already. I told the filipina to send it back to the sender and i will not receive the same. Tthat was the last contact.
The man introduced himself as a veterinary doctor and manager of Mediterranean Shipping Company, his number is+[protected]. From a Filipina victim

Me also really same story above, i have met a foreigner in blossoms.Com, he is the one who first messaged me, he said he is an us air force, but he told me that i will reply directly in his email add (dgoldfarb616yahoo.Com) because he will is not online always with that site due to the nature of his work, and then after that we always messaging each other, then he want me to be his wife, and then one day he ask of my birth, about my family background, and then i told him the truth, i told him that we are not rich, i have told him lots of me, but then sudden he said that he want my complete name and address because he want to send a parcel, and then he told me he already sent it thru qatar cargo company, but there is a remarks of atlantic express and cargo he sent me the picture of the airwaybill, but it has no tracking number, he said he dont allowed it to put on the tracking due to the security purpose, he said he sent me . Apple laptop, sonybravia 40 inch, iphone 6 plus, saudi gold 24k, wristwatches swiss made, and he also fix inside the box the 18, 500$, of course he didnt notify the courrier that he fix inside box the money, he also provide me the pin code of the brief case where he put the money, he also sent me pictures of all items he sent, i really really believe him, because i never ask about him for that, i told him also that we are not rich, he also told there that it will arrived in me in just 2-3 days, but then of course i asked here in my place to those already received packages from another country, they said that it will arrived for a month or two .. But then he said it was rush because it was speed post, ,
then after the days he promised, the third day the qatar cargo company message me on my email add, they introduce as qatar cargo manila office, they said my parcel has already arrived in ninoy aquino international airport, but need i need to pay the amount of 40500 pesos to make it deliver into me, that money they need is for tax and clearance . They give me deadline the same day they message me, they message me 7:30 am, and the deadline is on 1 pm the same day if i cannot pay the tax they will return the parcel tomorrow, then i ask them ( the filipina and the that foreigner voice i have talked) and then i asked them where to send the money they said just deposit it on the ps bank account named elena m. Fulcher, or in cebuana kwarta padala to sarajil reyes . Of course i was not able to pay because i cannot afford also, i also search their names in facebook, i saw the couple, a filipina and an american also, i started to confused, but then suddenly i confirmed that it was a scam, that my chatmate is a scam that was the last time we chatted that time that they said that my package has already arrived . It is a long story, , i really really believe it at first because it seems to be sa true . And i never expected that is a scam .
I just confirmed it because they say the same thing that number they said to call me the clearance agent, the one who will deliver my parcel,
my chat mate name is mikel hunt he said, , i don't know his real name
hes the one who introduce on me .
I thought he is the answer with all my prayers, i wanted to marry a foreigner, and i was so happy that he told me he will visit me on september 26 this year, , he said also that on the parcel he also put a visa invitation letter, but it all was a big lie!
i was really really disapointed, because he told me that the tv he sent is for my father because i told him that my father loves to watch movie, because we dont have tv, and i already told my father about it, until now i dont know how to tell him about that lie that my chatmate promised to me

Soy de Nicaragua y veo que la historia se repite, me han contactado a traves de facebook, se hacen pasar por mujeres militares USA en Siria, que se encontraron un monto de dinero, pero que no los pueden usar, que me lo enviaran a mi pais, al principio me dejo la duda, me pidieron los datos personales, se los di, pero no todos, me contactaron por mi numero de celular, segun a traves de un abogado y que despues, el paquete estaba en el aeropuerto y le depositara 500 dolares y el paquete era mio, esto ha sucedido muchas veces, tengo todo documentado, los numeros de celulares, no dejo creer asi no mas, pues nadie estan generoso como para regalar objetos de valor y menos dinero en efectivo, hasta por dos millones de dolares. debe ser toda una red operando por todo el mundo, lo preocupante es que ninguna autoridad hace nada.
