If we take away some letters on a google search we will find the same result:
paulmboma2
If you follow:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=paulmboma2&btnG=Search
is the beginning of this suspect.

All the way to paulmboma but not paulmbom in google search.

A con artest to say the least!

paulmboma2006_01@yahoo.com is an easy generic account to say the least that doesn't require ligetment information to start an account

Just for the fun of it I guess.

Not much fun for the 70 something year old man who a week or so ago, lost a large part of his savings ($230,000.00) on this scam!!
Hope he has some luck along with the authorities in locating the scammer(s).

I guess P.T.Barnum was right after all....

Wow, Art. I got it. (just kidding, this stuff happens to me too)

Well, I cannot understand someone smart enough to save over $200,000 can be so dumb.

You know why this happens?? Greed. People are greedy. That 70 year old thought he could get more money. If he'd have common sense (well, he should be excused for Alzheimer's or some other disease that decreases thought function)

It's like a person that is wealthy gambling all of their money away, because they think they can make more money. Usually, they lose more than they gain, unless they are lucky.

I told my father NEVER to give money or personal info to ANYONE who contacts HIM first. Unless he knows for sure they're legit.

Best way to find out is to research.

I am happy to be paranoid, because I trust NO ONE.

But, those who take advantage of ignorant people in this manner should be drawn and quartered.

I just received my third email trying to get my bank account number. They got my address from Vhumans. I had one before from this site too. This scam has been gong on for years now. I had gotten the same thing about 10 years ago. They must be making money or they wouldn't be still in business. I don't know why they have not been caught yet.
Nigeria is considered one of the most corrupt countries in the world and this is the home base for all these crooked dealings.

Bill,

I doubt it's the same person or persons, just the fact that the old is becomming new to a newly hatched breed of vermin who decided to ply their trade as cretins of society!

SS,DD...if you get my drift!

All,
 Just changed servers and while speaking to the people I mentioned this scam, thay just provide the service and have no interest in any type of fraud, next you would have to prove it is a fraud.
 This type of thing has been mentioned on tv, I'll try to contact them, there should be someone to report them to.

I added some code to the forum to disable sending emails through the forum on new accounts. Most users will still be able to use the function, but new users must at least make some posting on the forum first and wait a couple days before being allowed to use the email function.

thanks Rob.  For the record I also get the odd one from my VHumans forum account.

All,
 Just received another email, I have two from Virtual humans. The TV station gave me consumers affairs but I can't find a catagory for it.
It's a person with large amounts of money asking for help.
