Probably a temporary number, but this is one person or an entire ring of criminals. The He I dealt with is masterful in social engineering, has ***ned access to my *entire* life, I tried to alert Instagram immediately upon meeting him, they reacted as though I was overly paranoid, so I dismissed my own intuition. In reality, while he doesn’t seem notably intelligent, he is a gifted coder. If he ever ***ns access to your phone as far as any login to any single app, you are entirely *****ed. Period. Don’t walk, RUN!!!! RUN AWAY!!!!!!!! It’s nearly impossible to adequately warn people as he’s got several impermanent purchased phone numbers, and he likely c****es his name often Does live in Michigan as he used forged checks from a nearby power company to extract nearly $2k from my bank account. None of his phone numbers will reveal this location. He claimed to have moved here from Spain when he was about 10 but still has an accent that can make it difficult to understand him unless he’s speaking a bit slower. Claims to be a models, his Instagram and Facebook pages use slightly different names but he does keep adding fresh photos. I believe it is him or at the very least someone who is colluding in the life of defrauding and stealing from those who have very little, and who may be marginalized and less likely to make formal complaints to the FTC, state’s attorney general, FBI (he’s committed grand larceny [for ******ia, theft above $1k]—across state lines, so now a federal crime; and along with numerous additional crimes that if caught will keep him locked up for a very long time, he’s egregiously violated at least three of my fundamental cons***utional rights. He was going by the name Charles. With significant pressure from me after weeks of getting to know each other, when he began to ask for favors that I wouldn’t consider unless he shared his full name and more information — No, don’t feel bad about calling me ****** or thinking I’m a *****, because I do it: every single hour of every single day, MINIMUM. At last he come out with the last name ***mings. I thought to myself, this doesn’t sound like your average name for a man claiming to come from a multigenerational Spanish family….odd. One final note: he WILL want to talk by phone if he plans to begin a fairly quick but ferociously damaging scam on you; he is a highly experienced and gifted manipulator—but ONLY if he can get past all the written exc****e and begin to have carefully constructed conversations with you. He will use these calls to ***n your trust, but ALSO to extract what may seem like (but is NOT) pretty innocent bits of info. He won’t ask a lot at once. But no call (and there will be soooo many) is without an agenda on his part. Here’s the sign, the red flag, the flashing lights that signal danger ahead: He will NEVER call you from anything but WhatsApp. Never. If you have a terrible WiFi signal/connection (or likely he does) you’ll be battling that and his accent. He claimed to have a landline, but despite the irritating calls where you will strain to understand or hear him through the 2-3 second audio drops mixed w/his accent. He will never directly respond to any straightforward questions about why not use the landline or why he is REMARKABLY obsessive about only calling through WhatsApp (despite having 2 additional numbers (for work he claimed) which he’ll use to call you from, but only for a few weeks. This is probably a useless warning bcz he’ll c****e the name, the number, but if you’re female, please don’t ignore your FIRST instincts. If you’re a hetero***ual man, I doubt you’ll ever encounter this man with dark intentions. I’m fairly sure he preys only on women (and probably *** men) because he counts on them drooling over his many modeling and workout photos, as well as his very carefully constructed Instagram page, which is overflowing with quotes about the importance of honesty, the importance of romance and relationships, the necessity of valuing all women and especially the one you are involved with. I had no interest in anything but friendship because I only recently escaped from SEVEN YEARS of domestic violence. I’m essentially a zombie for the time being as far as any wish to find a man attractive or feel interested in any relationship like that. I’m afraid that for many women (thousands of which comprise his Instagram followers) this will be otherwise. His Instagram page serves as a very effectively crafted LURE and TRAP. If he finds interest in you (he will claim your beauty drew him and will say this often: your hackles should go up and you should go on high alert. This specific con number has obviously been very effective for quite a while: He will immediately but indirectly share that he is available and actively looking for a relationship; he will claim he has experienced a difficult breakup, a relationship of many years, but it’s now been more than a year and he’s actively seeking a new partner (I avoided these intimations, c****ed the subject, etc). NOTE, even if you’re not using social media as your dating app, as apparently many people are, this still matters! **[When this man sensed my disinterest he figured out >>what else made me tick<< (an unshakable desire to help those in need if I’m able. I can’t help with money, but if I can be helpful with my acquired knowledge or etc whatever. He will find another way—if the next manipulation or “wrench” I share appears promising.)]** Women, DANGER! DANGER! While talks about your beauty, repeatedly and you’re trying to get to know who this person is—if you stop asking questions you’ll begin to notice he’s not revealing who he truly is, not a bit, and since I was looking for a friend, not romance, this became frustrating very fast. While you answer his life questions, he’s not attempting to know you, or your nature, or your soul. But you might not be able to see that if you’re a romance ****** because he will redirect/misdirect any attempt to get to know him with this dusty old favorite used by scammers of both genders for centuries: To throw you off from the imminent realization that he’s not sharing Real Feeling or Thoughts so he’s staying utterly unknowable, he’ll throw in the giant monkey wrench (I know this one too well so I felt exhausted and angry). He will actually (no really) ACTUALLY begins saying in less than 2 weeks that he in falling in love with you. And then he’ll say it a LOT. This is never a good sign. It’s been less than two weeks for christ’s sake. Sorry. You can’t fall in love in two weeks over the phone. It could be too late. He may already have your IP. He already have gathered enough details and you’re so *****ed it’ll take longer than you could possibly know to get over the onslaught of waves, the eternal discoveries of new information about each level of your life he’s invaded and taken over. He’s still in the midst of doing this to me, so I can’t tell you much more…except this. He’s managed to install FIRE BASE in Google, on my phone. I should stop here and say this: there is a group on Google support (so there are more, many more on less specific sites) who have all had someone install this on their phones. Almost every single one of them has been dealing with this awful matter for at least 2-5 years. Their bank accounts constantly insecure and getting skimmed, a ******* c****ing logins, passwords, and using any app the person has that yields so****ing desirable and … just stealing it. They’ve bought new phones. Switched carriers. Switched internet providers. C****ed phone numbers. Moved ACROSS THE COUNTRY. None of them has found a solution and they are *literally* losing their minds. It’s no different from having an unrelenting stalker, except this one, once they’ve installed this software, they will just continuAlly upend and wreck your life any time the mood hits them. The software isn’t inherently bad. In the wrong hands, omfg. I’d been sleuthing through my phone for weeks because I could tell on ways I can’t describe that somehow he’d ***ned access to my phone. But it wasn’t until I switched to an entirely different bank to stop him from logging into my account that…within a WEEK I saw him make a purchase on my account at my NEW BANK. Using my bank account number which had never been shared anywhere! But it shows up in the bank’s app. So let me make it clear that once a man of this long description above tells you he loves you in a ridiculously short time, but he’s not sharing with you, nothing real, he’s got you in a different app on your phone and only communicates through that... SO****ING BAD IS ABOUT TO GO DOWN. Or, it’s happening as you speak. His weird silences, he may be accessing all of your info through a number of ****ods. I hope for your sake you don’t trust as easily. That will save you!! If you do begin to trust people sooner than others do do you haven’t done the following yet, stop reading and DO THESE THINGS NOW. Ideally, you will now block every possible communication route. Put a fraud alert on your bank account and monitor it like a new mother. Freeze your credit. Be vigilant. Pay attention to any oddities anything out of the ordinary. He may not have ***ned access to your phone in time. That’s what o hope with all my heart is true. While he was attempting to convince you he was a legitimate suitor, he was actually thoroughly ****essing your personality type, your vulnerabilities, if you’re broke who else in your family could help you, He knows already l that you’re easy to manipulate, he’s just finding out the subtle information as to WHAT ****OD will give him the most rapid access, and doing so in a very efficient and quiet way. If you’re not blinded by the bs suitor disguise, he will turn to whether you’re trusting enough to, after weeks of finessing and customized statements, end up believing his earnest pleas for****istance with a big favor. He will never ask you for money. Never. In fact, if you’re very low income he WILL say he wants to s**** paying you. To help him with his investing gig. Harassing people to use Forex. He wants to pay you HUGE sums of money (to someone who can still work and make good money, it’s not remarkable but to me thousands a month was a life c****er, but I don’t accept money like that. At first he said he wanted to just give it to me. I said, no, I can’t accept money from you. Thank you for the kindness but no thank you. That’s when he said well if you do this work for me… youll make so much money you won’t believe it. So when he mentioned Forex, and convincing people to use them, I looked it up, read all I could, No offense to forex but it all sounded like Ponzi scheme from the moment he described it. He will be mad when you tell him that, and say no in any way. It’s a rare ***** in the facade. But he will begin to get more pushy and aggressive when you turn anything down. He WILL rob you blind. He will remotely observe your entire life. He will keep you freaked out and absolutely **** your nerves…because just when you think you’ve resolved everything, AT LAST, he’ll make sure to reveal in some way that he’s still there. Still on your phone. Still wat****g your life. Still able to leave your life in a pile of embers and ashes. Will he or won’t he? Trust me, anyone else who’s had this occur, such as the group I found on Google? Coping with no one who can help them stop their own monster(s) after trying to keep their lives private and locked down, undetectable by anyones eyes…after all those years? The despair I read was frightening. I’ve dealt with this for two months and it’s profoundly difficult to keep focused and calm and determined. Sorry this is so long but I’m trying to keep anyone who is unaware or overly trusting from suffering this deeply upsetting and nonstop cyber stalker situation. This final paragraph was orphaned during cut and paste, but I’ve got urgent calls to make (one guess as to the subject of those calls…?) and cannot spare any more time. But this is important to know, I don’t have the time now to see if I made it a more powerful statement bcz it needs to be underlined and in boldface if not! So I can’t delete it: Additionally either he or another member of his circle is a gifted coder. If he finds a way into your phone…..don’t let ANYONE ever find their way in. Not even with a login to a ****** app that has no desirable information to a thief. Once they can can get in to anything at all, gifted coders have you in their crosshairs. GAME OVER
