I was almost scammed from this guy he gave me the information to a bank but they wanted me to open an account with anywhere between 300 and 700 united states dollars which if i did have i sure the heck wouldnt open an account overseas where i have no control over it or anything so of course i didnt do it and i responded back to the guy that was emailed to me and i told him i didnt have the funds to open it so he said he was unable to process the amount supposably set aside for me so i decided to copy the picture of this guy and do a google image search and came up with this scam page and stuff on him so i knew right then and there that it was a scam i had a feeling it was but i played them and acted like i was interested then turn them in as scammers. I emailed this guy back and told him he was a scammer and that I was turning it in and low and behold he has not emailed me back.......
