I just met this scammer on Match.com. His user name is Troysmilesobr8t.  We sent IM on Match for 40 minutes.  He told me his name was Troy Dietrich and that he was born in Spain of a German father but never knew his mother.  He also said that he was an architect/designer and that his wife and only son had died in a car accident 11 years ago and he's been alone ever since.  He asked if we could communicate via Yahoo Instant Messenger.  He didn't want to talk on the phone before he until we had established a trusting relationship via e-mail.  He said he lived in Maryland, and gave me his number as 410-346-5799.  I haven't tried to call this number as I don't want him to have it on his phone.  I have reported him to Match.com and hopefully he'll be off their site in a day or two.  Do not give your personal info to a stranger.  And under no circumstances give your home address or send money to someone you meet online anyone no matter what sad story they tell you.
