Mark Smith aka Donald Smith
Complaint 265531 Details

I started talking with a Mark known as "tkdsmith" on match.com in July. He was a widower with 2 kids age 54 and living in Franklin, TN. His subscription was "ending" so I made an email address to continue to talk to him. He told me he was a 2nd grade teacher and though I researched all the school websites in the area and surrounding ones and I could find no teacher with his name attached to it. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and continued to talk to him. He was constantly traveling to Gatlinburg and the beach. He was gray headed with beard and mustache. My first email was from [email protected] under Mark Smith. Then after talking maybe a week or so I received and email from [email protected]. Here is a brief excerpt from the email that you can google that links it to a scammer. "I will want my woman to be passionate, Loving, Romantic, Kind, Honest, Reliable, Unselfish, has sense of Humor, understanding and considerate. I hope am not asking for to much. I am a one woman man, I just want someone that will hold on to what little we find cos that's the way to move forward and as well make it big. I know that Rome was not built in a day". I reported him on match.com and blocked him from contacting me. However, he had liked some of my pics so I never deleted those likes. So I decided to go back through my pics and see if he was still around, and to my surprise he is. I can't access his profile only see what is listed under the like section. His profile name has changed to "tkd57493" and his picture is there but it is now a different gray headed man with beard and mustache and is a 58 year old man and suddenly he now lives in Chicago, IL.
