Christopher Snell
Complaint 10542 Details

I am on a website for dating called JWMatch.com whereby a man named Christopher Snell posing under the name Lonelyone55 contacted me and we started a dating relationship online with the intention of marriage. So over the course of our communication we wrote several emails to each other getting closer and closer in our relationship. I felt as if we were having a trusting relationship so when Chris asked me for money so he could take care of a shortage of funds in his business, I sent him money through the Western Union to help him. The first amount of $1068 was supposed to cover his shortfall, however a few days later told me it wasn't enough so I sent a second amount of $1804 which should have covered it. Then a few days later he said he needed more and would I hold his check for collerateral and send him more money and when I said no, he then concoted a scheme whereby a friend of his in Canada would put $40,000 in my bank account and I would take $20,000 two times and send it to him Western Union. I then had had it with him and told him no and since then I have not heard from him and that was 3 days ago. He is supposed to conclude his business and return to the states whereby we are supposed to meet and he is supposed to return my money to me but I highly doubt that is going to happen now.
