yes his replies are the same with me and though we chated a bit and at the end he was asking for me to send him his lost items in traveling  his request was new phone and ipad3 and if sent he would pay when he travel back from his turkey job location..I will also report this to match.com

Thank you so much for this information.. I too meet this person on Match.com and told me the same stories.
Thanks again,

Thanks for the helpful information -- this helped me realize this person is fake.

I got text from this phone # after I saw your post and stopped contact it. Whoever has this phone # is definitely a scammer or psycho.

Wow. Same as the above! But is it necessarily a scam just because he's contacted LOTS of people?

I just reported him on Match

This is scary

Exactly the same experience.. He kept asking fo.my email.. and kept.sending.emails even when I did not.respond. Checking out that some numbers in this area code are.somehow not.in the US.

Ditto the  story above from Patty...... his id on Match is poopoo009...... when I tried reporting on Match it gave me all kinds of errors as well....

was just sent an email from someone on Match (dating site) too.  I suspected a scammer and found this page.   Thanks for following through and posting your findings.... the guy is telling me he is from Avenel NJ and that he can't use Match to communicate bc work blocks social websites.  Second "widower" today.  Match is LOUSY  with these scammers of late.  BEWARE when anyone contacts you and immediately asks you to go offline.

the number is fraudulent unfortunately.yes a dating site...

I wanted to check this out, as I was given it on a dating site. It did not add up, so I checked it out which brought me to here.

just wanted to check this mobile number +1914 996-8287
