Harry the Orthopedic Surgeon

Unusual to find a scam on LinkedIn, but I've seen a few of these lately.

Harry is an orthopedic surgeon. Do orthopedic surgeons wear yellow hi viz jackets instead of scrubs?

So why is he working for the United Nations in Germany? And why does someone with ten years of experience have only four connections?

Where did he go to medical school?

And if he is into orthopedics, why is he talking about being a neurosurgeon?

I'm pretty sure that Harry is a love Scammer, seeking to prey on wealthy women. That sort of thing isn't uncommon on Facebook. I get inundated with beautiful models who want to be my friend. LinkedIn isn't the obvious place for it though

I've reported him to LinkedIn as "Not representing a real individual" - we'll see what happens

Welcome to Scammerama!

There's a beautiful girl half my age who wants to be my friend on Facebook. Oddly, despite being utterly gorgeous and a beauty queen from Brazil to boot, Ellie Zwonke has only been on Facebook for two days and has no friends at all. And she has chosen me, fat old balding guy, to fall in love with and wants to share her life with me. I suppose I must be irresistible to women? I don't like to boast, but hot babes get in touch every day. Models, students, fashion designers, all sorts of cuties. Curiously, although they come from Florida, Texas and California in the main, they almost all now live in Kumasi, Ghana. Now I've never been to Kumasi, but listen guys, the density of hot blondes in the population must be quite astonishing. Now before you go on the Air Ghana website to enquire about tickets, let me share with you this photo of Elizabeth Sarpong: Elizabeth has another photo in her profile, and oddly enough, it...

So Why Hangouts?

Almost all the beautiful girls who want to share my life online try to persuade me to stop using Messenger and change to WhatsApp or Google Hangouts. Obviously they are up to no good, s o, naturally, I don't want to do this. I do have WhatsApp, and even use it. And I have had Google Hangouts ever since Mr and Mrs Google first invented it, though I haven't used it for years and years. But of course I'm not going to say that to the scammers. So first way to mess with their heads is to feign ignorance. Well, I've worked in Tech Support, I can do ignorance. "What is WhatsApp?" "Oh, for chatting on line? I use a thing called Messenger" "How much does it cost? Really? Excellent" "Oh, I don't know how to do that stuff" Eventually she persuades me to try to download it from the App Store "Access Denied" "Am I doing something wrong?" Eventually I sug...

Ooops!

The scammer I dumped yesterday came back to me with the same face but a nice African name. Bilson Angela became Munkadas Masahulu, and sent me an friend request. Then he changed his name to Bilson Bilson Angeles, realised that he had screwed up, and blocked me 😃
