Tony Harry (Anthony Harry Booer)

Romance Scam

London, BRK

Tony targeted me on Plenty of Fish dating website. He presented himself as a 38 year old widowed Artist/Photograher with twins living in the UK. He spent two months professing his love and committement to moving to the USA and spending the rest of his life with me. During this time he went to South Africa to buy Art and was in a Taxi accident, where of course he lost his briefcase containing his credit card, passport, etc. He first had a fraudulent check for $48,000 sent to me from Canada, claiming this man (Andrew Wallace) in Canada owed him money for a previous Art purchase. Then he attempted to get money straight from me via Western Union,for a total of $1800. None of the information he gave me could be validated and the phone numbers he used were spoofed. His grammer is poor and he does lose track of his lies sometimes. The pictures he uses I am sure are stolen. His email address was listed in 2007 as a 419 Scammer on the Joe Wein site.
Please beware, he is very convincing and very persistent!!!
