I also meet "Kevin" on a dating site. He said he was from Oklahoma and then moved to Kansas. He said he had a business trip to Africa. Said he was a oil contractor. After talking to him on IM for a couple weeks he sent me a email with his contract and copy of his check. Then said he couldn't access his bank account and needed money. I wasn't going to send him money but i played along. After several hours of chating he showed his true colors and he even sent me a fake passport. Everyone needs to watch out for him.
This person claims he lives in Colfax, CA. We met through an online dating service. He gave me this number. I called and it said the caller was not available. When he called back, I could barely understand him. Almost sounded like his voice was being altered in some way. After chatting with him for about two weeks over IM, he claimed he went on a business trip to Italy, then had to go to Africa to see that the goods were shipped. He then asked me for money to get the goods shipped. I immediately told him to never contact me again. He claims his name is Kevin Pancoast.
I also meet this person on an online dating service, He gave me the same cell phone number he gave Tink. When I called it said the caller is out of the calling area. He im'd me said he just came from Italy and is now in Africa to get his goods through customs. He said he was expecting a large check and wanted my full name and address and bank account to put the check in my account so I could hold it for him until he got back from Africa. He also deleted his profile from the dating site. The check he said is for $170,000.00 and could only trust me to keep it for him. I knew this was a scam. I googled his cell phone number and I'm so glad I did, I found Tink's message and another one from a different person claiming he did the same thing to her. Watch out for people asking for your personal information, do not give it out!! The name he used is Kevin Pancoast Cline.

My mom's got this same number and she is now being taking for a spin by this guy...he was supposed to come over to her house for thanksgiving and had an attorney email my mom saying that she was "wife to be" and needed to go to Lagos Nigera to get him home because he was in a really bad car accident. A few days later he calls my mother and says he'll be back in the states this week and wants to "see" her. He said that he lives in eastern Kansas and has a 9 year old boy.
