he is also using the newer e mail adress
arianagirlforyou111@yahoo.com
if you look through yahoo mail's option there is a way to report and have them cancel his mail address anonymously.
have done so once already make use of full headers on mail and fill in the information yahoo request.
he fiddles the time-line and uses a proxy server to hide his location, also uses multiple email and real world adresses, do not use western union or other system, and block them from your mail address.
The more i look into this the bigger and nastier it gets,
it is definately big business the images of the girls are likely to be nieces or grand daugthers, and the pictures tend to be all taken at the same day or approximate time, with a canon sure shot or u100d etc
an expensive camera for a poor country i reckon.
Pictures include dogs, cats horses christmas time pictures, dates around 1st jan 06.

I also have had contact with him in exactly the same way as "Smith" In fact the latest contact was today. He reckons the address arianka737@yahoo.com is no longer working and I am to email at[ariana7733@yahoo.com]. He makes it very convincing. He has sent me over the past month many pictures of the attractive girl called Ariana he claims to be. The storey he tells of her life is very heartwarming and believable of this 24 year old sweet and lonely girl just looking for love. Lord knows who the girl on the pictures are, the pictures just add to the belief that she is genuine as many are taken at home and look very homely.
I tried to flush him out by sending some flowers to an address given as her grandpa's home however the florist in Armenia couldn't deliver as the address was in fact business premises. The excuse given as to why the flowers haven't reached is that he "doesn't understand" and the florist must have made a mistake and to not bother sending flowers as they are so expensive. He is still after some money to get to England via a "working partnership" that places her in England to study and learn better English languish however the bank details wouldn't be enough anyway which I find strange .

I got this email and was researching before making a decision as to whether it was legitimate.

having checked on interpol's site, by searching "armenia"
avertisian artur is most likely to be gyulnazaryan artur
wanted by police in armenia, poster of this evil man is on interpols site hope this helps, if he contacts you send the wanted poster and then block his e mail adress he should be stopped.

This just happened to my friend. She is really hurt by the entire thing and grieving for the lost realtionship she thought she had. Her guy was supposed to be in Australia with a son in Nigeria. He got ehr address and sent flowers then sent 3,000 computer cartridges to her house and asked her to ship them. Her name is ladylaker. I'll see if I can get her to come in and meet you folks. She won't feel so stupid then.

Beware of a internet dating scam from Yerevan, Armenia. His name is Artur Avertisian. his address is 17/9 37th Street, Masiv district, Yeravan, Armenia. He will say he's a russian lady wanting to come to America. First he will say that he doesn't have all the money needed for paperwork, then he will ask for money to show customs, then promises to give it back we he/she arrives in the US. Look under the name Bella in the Black book of known Russian dating scams.

I have been contacted by guys before off of singles sites and within a couple of days they are giving me the story that they love me, want to marry me and that the only way they can get home to the USA is for me to 1) send them money 2) cash the America money orders their companies paid them with and send the money back or 3) allow them to transfer money onto my credit card or paypal account. Believe me I've gotten really wise in my old age (I'm 38). This latest one gave me a lot of conflicting information. I work for an attorney so I did research on things he told me. He said he graduated from a christian college in Virginia...I contacted alumni relations at the college...he never went there. He said he lived in Honaker, VA....later he gave me an address in Virginia Beach. Guess he never looked at a map of VA and could have plainly seen that Honaker is inland VA near West VA and that Virginia Beach is along the Atlantic Seaboard. He tried the need money to get home ploy...when I nixed that he tried the reship scheme. I have given FedEx the account number he wanted me to use and the address where he wanted it shipped. FedEx has picked up to return all the packages they delivered...as has UPS. The ones that came through the US Postal service have been returned and all information given to the Postmaster at my post office. I also filed a report with my state police department...so I guess Karl Banks or Denis Bank or whoever he is won't be too happy when they catch up with him.

i have sent money through western union to purchase a english bulldog that is "originally" from the US. western union called and told me there have a been a few complaints. so if you plan to purchase a dog. get one you can drive to pick up. they wanted be to send the "remaining balance" so they can ship the dog. BS.

I have met someone on a dating website talked for over 8 months or more, and thought everything was true!
I have been hurt, used, and SCAMMED!Now I cant have a bank account anymore, cant use my credit card. So, far nothing else has been touched. I ignored this person for long. Then talked again, cause I had a letter from my bank saying, it was being paid... back, but more was put in then "TAKEN" out!
What can I do or what can be done about these type of situations? As for me, I did learn the hard way but now I know, and research more on things like this!
Thanks
