A Scam Baiter's Diary

I will start by introducing my self as "Random" I am blogging about my experiences of Baiting On Line Dating Scammers on the various dating websites online. I have been very active the past year thwarting numerous on line dating Scammers. This is how my I developed a passion for the art of Baiting Scammers

First of all I will make it clear I am a scam-baiter. I enjoy the thrill of pulling these scumbags offline so they do not prey on other women. My list of Scammers is very long and distinguished and vary in the story line and execution of the Scam itself.

The Match Scammers as do the POF (plenty of fish) have a very definite time frame to execute their scam. Usually between 3-4 weeks they will be crying for the money. I have found the Tinder Scammers to vary in their game. I've had a handful say they love you in the first exchange online to the exact opposite slow and methodical.

My Match conquests include an Italian fashion designer I kept off line for 6 months. A Civil Engineer, Diamond Dealer, and a hand full of military scammers I knock off after a few conversations. All have some sort of VoIP equipment and there is the same rooster crowing in the background.

A Short list of my conquests include, Salvo Antonio Giovanni, Rodrigo Mann-Recendez, Ben Clement, Steve Williams, Ryan Dyer, Steve Dyer, Tyler Barnett, Brian Simms, Thomas Care. Many scammers from Tinder David Hughes, Anthony Baylee, Robert Onile, Alex Freyman, Stefan Manos and Austin Simmons. are the most noteworthy. I do keep a diary of email addresses, phone numbers and photos.. I will post these in the gallery.

I just got through with a Match with Michael Wilson, a contractor who tried to swoon me by sending me Roses. His story is that he lives in Salt Lake City, UT with 2 daughters. He is a construction engineer working on a project in Ghana. His mother took ill and was admitted into the hospital where she lives overseas. He had her flown to the United States, New York for medical treatment. While in Ghana he recommended we communicate via the Viber app. So he sent me a message that indicated there was a problem with his finances he did not have access to money. I put a big halt to his financial issue by recommending he seek the advise of the Hospital financial counselors. He was not amused by my recommendation. So I block, Delete and eliminate him from my stable of matches.

When I caught on to my first scammer it became a game of wit. I troll the dating websites and target their profiles. I believe the Match Scammers have got wise to me, so I moved to Tinder for awhile. At any given time in the match I tell them I've Scam Baited the best scammers in the business but they keep on with the same plot. It's quite amazing to me, one actually tried to threaten when he found out he was being played. I keep photo's, emails and save Yes the Tinder boys don't hold a candle to the Match guys or POF, the match and POF guys are a "little" smarter.. but not much.

And I can hardly imagine someone being stuck in Istanbul, Turkey for 6 months with out money. It was hilarious the one scammer actually told me to google the time in Istanbul so I don't call when princess is sleeping. LOL. I did have fun with him though. He was very well spoken, well written and never offered up obscene photos like most seem to like to do.

I never misrepresent myself, I am just as creative in the writing department where romance is concerned, in fact I think I have seen other scammers using modified letters I have written to my scammers. They definitely have shop hours. They tend to say they are working hard then when they end up overseas then the time difference comes into play where coordinating calls and txt's become strategic. I am very proud to say none of them has got a dime from me, although I really wanted to continue one of the Matches so I did get an iTunes card to keep the match going. A small price to pay for the hours of enjoyment. txt messages all have beautiful foreign accents. I really feel bad for those photo's that have been stolen that involve children in the pictures.

I have successfully baited numerous scammers from match, Tinder and POF, our time. I've had the who's who of the A list scammers. These are the matches that literally extend for months at a time. I'm currently involved in a very extensive match it went on for 6 months and I finally got the bottom line request for money. He asked for $11,000.00 because his business in Nigeria is not going well. I've received a marriage proposal, promise of life love and happiness... LoL. And yes he thinks he is my dominant .. omg---seriously!!!

I only like to play with the scammers that bring there "A" game to me. I do not believe there is real love so I enjoy the Romance of a Match with the scammers as they are polite, well spoken and know how to appeal to my creativity and creative writing skills.

Some probably find it odd I don't. It's a hobby for me it keeps me thinking and engaged in the battle of wit.

This blog is dedicated to the documentation of my current and ongoing Matches. I will blog daily about my experience's with these scammers and share some of they communications with me, text messages, emails and phone calls. I do not even have an accurate number of matches that I have been engaged in with these frauds. I will preface this all by saying I do not do this for money or personal gain. I do not ask for anything from these scammers. I have even told a few I am a scam baiter, to which they always profess that they are not scammers.

My current matches are with the following:

Austin Simmons- Currently in Nigeria on a construction project. This has been a 6 month affair and is fluid and ongoing. He is very smart, articulate and knows his craft as I know mine. We are in a battle of wit currently.

John Rodriguez - His story is he is a cinematographer residing in San Francisco. I just picked him up on Tinder a few days ago and I am learning his story.

Perry Adam - Currently residing in La Jolla, CA says he is a contractor and has traveled to 39 countries all over the world. Perry is new just picked him up on Plenty of Fish last evening. I will see how his story unfolds. I can predict that he will be working on a Contract that will take him overseas probably my guess Ghana, Nigeria or Turkey. He will not be able to meet me because he will have to fly out to said contract job. We will see this should be fun.

It is my experience with the Civil Engineers, and Contractors the plot is very simple and is executed over about a 3-4 week time frame. I will be curious to see how the cinematographer plot unfolds, this is a new one for me. Austin is in a league all his own, its been amazing to play the battle of wit with this one. He can be very convincing in his messaging to me, he is very consistent with his content and is quite romantic. The dead give away to the Scammer is fist there profiles are very obvious, I can pluck a scammer off of any dating website with 100 percent accuracy. Next is when the speak the never say "I am" they start by using "Am" not sure why this is I have not figure that out yet, but I will.

This is the start of my official chronicle of my experiences. I will document alot about me and the interaction I have with the scammer. This is all better then any made for TV movie.
