Hello people.
I'm from Argentina and a while ago I was contacted through match.com by a man named Jason Cole Ahmad who claims to be from England, actor and film director. As the stories above, I received daily • love letters "(copied from romantic pages) for a month. Until surprisingly, he calls me to explain his plans for the next months, before he can come to Argentina to married me. I do not understand English well, then I asked him to go to chat. He said me that in a few days he was to go to Tokyo and from there to the sea to film the premiere. But before going to sea was sending me "something" from Tokyo to remember him until the end of filming to come to Argentina to buy a house for me and for my kids.
He told me he will send me a car! I could not believe!! and also asked me the sizes of my children to send gifts to them. Actually everything seemed "too good to be true". In mid-November, my eldest son, suspecting that something was not right, traced one of the phrases in his messages and we fall in several pages of Scammers. That alerted me, but could not understand how it would attempt to scam.
“Jason” sent me the car and the parcel from Tokyo and after one week, a guy contacted me to my celular from the custom office from Malasya, telling me to check my mail. I transcribe the contents of the mail, so you have the name of the "alleged shipping company” and the person responsible (closely related to other types of Internet scams).

At this point I could recognize the scam, so I started researching on the internet and found this page.
I want to thank everyone who took the time to tell his story because this way we protect ourselves from people playing with the feelings and pockets of other people.
God bless you all!!!. I will not continue writing because English is not my native language and I apologize if I express wrong at some point.
