This name is another one of those Africa scams. This person with a
different name used the exact same words but a different photo which I
will copy/paste below as another person did 2 weeks ago. They
suppsosedly sell computer accesories and are going to ask you later for
help cashing some money orders because they are stranded in Africa or
somewhere. Just wanted to share this with you all just in case.

LOL, That happen to me like 3 months ago. It was a girl from Russia.
After two weeeks two more girls send me the same message that she did.
And everything was the same. So I just send them eachothers pic. And the
E-mails stopped.

another common scam is a story about a plane crash killing whole
families and a trustee wants you to open an account so they can transfer
money to your account,in return you supposedly recieve 5% of millions

I know you know but, in case someone doesn't....it's a Federal thing
called money laundering. My friend and his wife race sled dogs and a
guy from Africa wanted to sell him a dog but, couldn't get the dog to
him yet but, needed him to put the money in his acct. so he could draw
the money out to send the dog over. Yeah, I don't know what this Africa
shit is about so, basically, just be careful with Africa stuff
folks.....it's HIGHLY ILLEGAL and we're talking PRISON TIME!!! NOT
cool!!!

Hey The shadow. That russian chick, what did she call her self? I
talked with ? a girl from russia for two weeks and she was in love with
me and sending me pic's and said she was a dantist meaning (dentist) I
guess. but anyway she was all ready to come to me and spoof gone. I
knew she was scamming but she never got to me giving money? I just
liked her PIC'S, LOL.

Hey guys - it'd be a huge help if you could use our "Report Abuse"
feature to notify us about these scammers. That's the easiest way to
let us know that someone is a scammer and ensure that their account is
banned.

Thanks!
