I assume he went to jail or prison for a hood long time. He certainly was crafty and convinced many who were needy and vulnerable. The man in London who “smelled a rat” with Hammish was the smart one… skeptical. There are female scammers too, who go after men with money. Maybe a widow or divorcee. People want to believe in a charming man or woman. They are flattered, and maybe feeling lonely. One of you mentioned making a lot of money before making a commitment. Smart idea, but if a single snd young woman got pregnant in a first marriage with her spouse, it’s really important that she gives her child a secure environment and access to mommy. I know we are all different, but most if us don’t have that kind of money. I guess the scammers wouldn’t get interested. Never tell a new man how much you have, especially if you have a lot. That’s like catnip for a scammer!
What I’ve learned after my own share of mishaps, is you never tell someone specific details about what you want in a partner. I always say, “I know exactly what I want. I’ll allow you to show me the qualities you have as we progress”. That way, they can’t shape themselves into the image of the person you’ve shared with them, they have to present the true qualities they have. Listen twice as much as you talk.
Had a boyfriend in college who "borrowed" $5 here, and $10 there. When the total got to $50 and he had never paid back a dollar I ended it. It's a sign of disrespect in my opinion. I consider that my $50 lesson that I've never had to repeat.

What stays most with me is the goodness of the one woman whose neighbor paid off her 8 figure mortgage and was willing to await payment when she sold her home. That depth of kindness is wonderful, they were not asked but learned of the dilemma and offered. I feel so bad for men and women wanting no more than to be part of a couple and end up swindled.
He may have done it out of the goodness of his heart, but he likely also didn't want the property values to fall in his neighborhood. And he knew she was good for it, and would repay him upon sale. If the bank foreclosed, it would be sold for a much lower price.
The woman loved the lifestyle and not the man. Doubt any of this would have happened if he was a nice man who worked in retail because then the woman wouldn’t give him a 2nd look 😂

Not long enough by far he'll be out in no time :( He is truly the worst kind of criminal, as soon as he's out he'll be right back at it, it's what he does :(
Don’t ever feel silly, you are dealing with a type of intelligence that is beyond our understanding. A master manipulator. By the way, I simply love Henry! What an unpretentious person! For a rich guy! She should marry him
I kind of think it's counterproductive to call these criminals "intelligent." They're morally bankruptcy, not intelligent. They don't think better, they think in a distorted way.
No he's a narcissist. They love themselves, put blame on you if the relationship becomes shaky & they feel that if you are naive enough to trust them, then you deserve the con that they run on you. They leave a wake of financial & emotional devastation. If he was also a psychopath, he would have physically or psychologically tormented or threatened her and/or her son! psychopaths sometimes attempt to cover up these cons with killing the women! She's fortunate that he didn't do that as well!
Messing with a person’s heart is the worst, not the money. These ladies were vulnerable and sincerely thought they had found a good mate. Being conned out of money is just pouring acid on a wounded heart. Glad to see them helping each other to heal.
I don't really think so! Beck KNEW something was going on or was OFF with him having coffee in coffee shops with her son's girlfriend!!! She felt something was off. You can get over someone "messing with your heart." If you really NEED that money to live, I think that's worse!!!

I am 76, have owned my own companies, traveled the world and been engaged 5 times. I just cannot say "I do!", and they were all good men. The one thing that would have saved these women was in realizing that all the feeling of "love" is nothing more than a chemical reaction we cause in our self. It is the same reaction you get from chocolate, ice cream and many other things. It works when you like something enough to keep repeating it. Same reaction you get with drugs. Your body releases endorphins, dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin, which together, make you feel very happy. So what we call "love" is not real. It is what makes the rest of the relationship that is real. To know you have a "real thing", you have to get past what you believe to be "love", as it simply is not real.
I have been hurt so much, primarily because I refused to see the red flags and did not bother to ask God if it was the person he had created for me. However, just as miserable I have been, how much hurt and disappointed I've been through, I believe good people exist, and love is real
How cynical!! love when real is better than chocolate and drugs, its actions of care, respect and shared interests and values. Maybe you have never been in love?
@@charlottebruce979 May be you missunderstood Marlene Funk ? She didn't say love = chocolate, etc. She says: "It is what makes the rest of the relationship that is real."
She is referring to the chemical action of bonding. That’s why in earlier times a young woman always had a chaperonne and never get bonded before marriage.

If a woman has low self esteem or going through a low period, she may open herself to predators such as this. Family and friends sometimes can not even break the grips of the predator on her. 😞
True that. My mother had passed and my dad was in a tragic accident leaving him a para-plegic. I was clinically depressed and only 20. Here came this male gold digging moocher convinced my sister that he was in love with me and wanted to marry me. She arranged my marriage and within 10 years he wiprd me out, my business two homes and other assets devoured by him and his family from India. After three children and 8 more years of abuse I walked away with my children, a broken down vehicle, thousands of dollars in debt, my body too sick to work, no friends nor family who would stand with me i started crawling out of the deep hole. That was 25 years ago now life is great again and I'm a grandma of two absolutely adorable girls who I love as the apples of my eyes. None of my kids talk to him or have seen him since 1998.
Intruder naw......... These women already had money but I can see your point. However, some women who have low self esteem are not exposed to supposedly rich men like this. They will take even the poorest specimen of a man if he says and does the right things.
Sonia G Women are so much stronger than they think that they are. Men like this break down women to their very core and rebuild them to not see their horrible flaws. Thank goodness there is always a flicker of intuition and fight down in a woman’s core. I am so glad that you survived and prospered with a happy life.
Cracker Jack yes indeed! Sometimes you have to play the fool, to fool the fool, who is trying to fool you. Poetic justice I suppose. Oh! jolly well!.............xxxxxxxxxx.

My wife’s brother borrowed $300 from me 30 years ago. Within a month he paid back $200 of it. Still owes $100 and I’ve never said a word but I’ve never borrowed any more money to family or friends. It was the best $100 I’ve ever lost. Let this be a warning to others.
Then you're seeking out something to back up your ignorance. These are ultra rare situations. It's like me seeking out and watching all the many videos online of dogs mauling little children and then saying "This is why I hate dogs and dogs are evil". Same mode of oversimplified ignorance.

@@poonambhatia3627 I wouldn't be that hard on these women. They all had been in broken marriages or broken relationships; they were grieving the loss of their relationship and they were feeling lonely and alone. Con men usually swoop in and and take advantage of those who are in a vulnerable state. These women might have been programmed that they were of less value, without a man. They could've been programmed to find a man ASAP to be fulfilled. When I announced to my parents that I was going to nursing school to become a professional nurse, they told me that I needed to find a husband , get married, and have children because I was an old maid of 21. I didn't pay any attention. I have always been a nonconformist.
Narcissists mirror their targets, that's why it's easy for people to believe that they are in love with them. They pretend to like what you like etc. However, the mask always falls off at some point and you get a glimpse of the true evil that they are. Very sad!!😭😭
He's a plain old narcissist. They don't have empathy, they don't feel empathy like us normal people. They're what you call people without a soul. They say that some of them turn out to be like that because of childhood sexual abuse where their emotional development is stunted and never grows past that age. And some become high level conmen, some become scumbags who just take advantage of good people in relationships, one after another.
Yes. Although I don't think they're always abused in childhood. But when exposed, they like to portray themselves as victims of terrible abuse and fish for empathy.

No typical sleazy sickening act of a sleaze bag old man . And a man does all the chasing . Woman don’t chase men , in this case 16 year old girl doesn’t chase older men . No the older men bring her into this by showing off with their wealth and being flash . She’s a young girl . Inexperienced. So yeah his fault all the way . Sickening !
Kevin Burrow Yes I understand this . I think that the money will turn heads from any woman at any age .look this is the sons mother who is telling us this . So even though she was a mature woman she had her guard down . Imagine a 16 year old !? No I wouldn’t dream of sleeping with my boyfriends dad even if he had all the money in the world . It’s not he done thing . It’s creepy
Wasn't just the 16 yo girl. Perfectly happy to drag all these kids into it without any conscience what so ever, even a disabled kid, needing an operation. Couldn't not be a psychopath!
Agustina agree although she assumed he was working for the bank who issued those documents. It’s always easy to be cautious after the fact. Poor women.
So true. I know a man who was conned by his own daughter and her husband because he trusted them and didn’t read through a contract they set up for a shady property investment thing. Cost him several thousand euros he’ll never see again.
Listen. If it involves my home or money. I'm not giving over anything or putting my name to anything, especially if it's substantial, that I've not taken some time to look over, so he would not have bothered with me. He'd have left me alone. Because I don't believe in mixing up my finances with anyone, except the bank and I would visit the bank so I know I'm in the right place. He'd be charming and I'd be just as charming in telling him how I operate. I suppose I might also have missed good opportunities in the past because of my oh, so cautious attitude. I'm one of those people who would rather give money, than lend, so might have given him some money if he needed it, which couldn't be much because, as I'd see it, he's not my responsibility; furthermore, I don't like men who 'eye up' women's money, especially if he's not bringing anything liquid to the table, I wonder about their self-respect as a man....sorry...I consider these things. Perhaps too cautious, come to think of it.
I had a housemate like that. Put on his suit every day to go to his “job” at KPMG. One day I came home early to find him on the couch. I called reception next day and they’d never heard of him. We kicked him out and I only lost a few hundred, but if it weren’t for instincts and swift action it could’ve been worse. Beware.
I wouldn't go as far as to say that they deserved it, but they CERTAINLY asked for it by being so gulliible and status driven (perhaps not the sixteen year-old girl though, she can be forgiven for her inexperience).
Probably a sociopath. Didn’t they say that he took on different personalities along with the aliases? At any rate he was very manipulative and had zero remorse or concern about anyone else.

I'd rather have a broken heart than a broken bank balance. You need cash to buy a tub of icecream to help heal the heart. I'd rather someone leave me broken hearted than unable to afford the icecream to get over it.
Not necessarilly some people age badly! Ive seen one of my classmates a few years after we left high school he look like he was 40 years old, and he was only around 18 years old! He look like he was drinking heavilly and smoking , so this just made him looking even older!
Nah, this is normal premature ageing in Australia in people who have outdoor lifestyles from a young age. He looks 40s to me, because I live in this kind of area and see it all around me.
Soooo, we're just going to skip over the fact that this man is a child predator?? 😐 I get that the main story is him scamming women/people (and I don't know if the age of consent is that young where they're from), but everyone seems to be overlooking something that's also pretty serious and really sick. 😒
16 is the age of consent in Australia. Though he probably started all the flirting before then. He emotionally hurt so many people. There's a series of podcasts on him "who the hell is Hamish"? The 16 year old is the one i feel most sorry for, ...she was also pressured by her grandparents to get some of their money back from him, so she spent far longer with him than she wanted to...really sick.
As a young girl, my father was never around so to have someone coming in my life, being that father figure all for a scam would be devastating. I hope that disgusting manipulative man gets what he deserve and pray that the family heals from all of it
Men like him don’t work alone . If he’s conned investors out of $70 million and more , then there are a few people in the operation , who are the brains & he’s the hustler . He’s also the ‘fall guy ‘ . I wondered be surprised if he didn’t stay that long in p.rison . He probably has quite a few million stashed away , like the Cayman Islands or Jersey .

Ads basically intrude and invade our lives, steal our time, alter our thinking, brainwash, manipulate, entice, tempt, entrap us and at least on TV we could always flip the channel and avoid watching it but on internet, youtube, we are forced to watch it or a few seconds of it else we can't watch the video we want to watch. It's a crime in my opinion that they can just get away with doing this to us and break every single law but legalize it as legit advertising. It used to be from no ads to now 3 or 4 ads for a 10 minute video! It's insane and nobody seems to notice it or care (like the frog in boiling pot of water experiment)...they have increased the heat on us for years now to the point of boiling and we are dying and not many people notice it.

Make them watch 15 second ads everytime they get out of bed, want to use the bathroom, want to turn on the water, want to open their fridge, want to make coffee, want to put on shoes, want to exit the house, want to enter their car, want to turn on their engine etc. I want them to face ads every day just to see what it's like for them.

A TRUE gentleman NEVER asks for money. Never.
Dahm right bruva
This is true, real men work 6 jobs to earn their own money, they'll never ask money ever from someone they love.
Never talk about money in relationships
Definitely. If a man ever asks for money then it’s a red flag, and that is not an exaggeration.
A true woman doesn't ask for money either
Hamish should run for government. He wouldn't feel out of place.

@@Froggie757froggiefroggiefroggi Greedy women do not deserve to be sorry for.
I am 76, have owned my own companies, traveled the world and been engaged 5 times. I just cannot say "I do!", and they were all good men. The one thing that would have saved these women was in realizing that all the feeling of "love" is nothing more than a chemical reaction we cause in our self. It is the same reaction you get from chocolate, ice cream and many other things. It works when you like something enough to keep repeating it. Same reaction you get with drugs. Your body releases endorphins, dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin, which together, make you feel very happy. So what we call "love" is not real. It is what makes the rest of the relationship that is real. To know you have a "real thing", you have to get past what you believe to be "love", as it simply is not real.
I have been hurt so much, primarily because I refused to see the red flags and did not bother to ask God if it was the person he had created for me. However, just as miserable I have been, how much hurt and disappointed I've been through, I believe good people exist, and love is real
How cynical!! love when real is better than chocolate and drugs, its actions of care, respect and shared interests and values. Maybe you have never been in love?
So spot on its all a chemical reaction which tricks you to behave stupidly
@@charlottebruce979 May be you missunderstood Marlene Funk ? She didn't say love = chocolate, etc. She says: "It is what makes the rest of the relationship that is real."
She is referring to the chemical action of bonding. That’s why in earlier times a young woman always had a chaperonne and never get bonded before marriage.

True that. My mother had passed and my dad was in a tragic accident leaving him a para-plegic. I was clinically depressed and only 20.

She arranged my marriage and within 10 years he wiprd me out, my business two homes and other assets devoured by him and his family from India. After three children and 8 more years of abuse I walked away with my children, a broken down vehicle, thousands of dollars in debt, my body too sick to work, no friends nor family who would stand with me i started crawling out of the deep hole. That was 25 years ago now life is great again and I'm a grandma of two absolutely adorable girls who I love as the apples of my eyes. None of my kids talk to him or have seen him since 1998.

They all had been in broken marriages or broken relationships; they were grieving the loss of their relationship and they were feeling lonely and alone.

They could've been programmed to find a man ASAP to be fulfilled.

He's a plain old narcissist. They don't have empathy, they don't feel empathy like us normal people. They're what you call people without a soul. They say that some of them turn out to be like that because of childhood sexual abuse where their emotional development is stunted and never grows past that age.
And some become high level conmen, some become scumbags who just take advantage of good people in relationships, one after another.
Ok Dr. Lol
Yes. Although I don't think they're always abused in childhood. But when exposed, they like to portray themselves as victims of terrible abuse and fish for empathy.

Nobody should sign a paper before or without reading it, even if it is somebody very close to you, you always have to read what you sign!

So true. I know a man who was conned by his own daughter and her husband because he trusted them and didn’t read through a contract they set up for a shady property investment thing. Cost him several thousand euros he’ll never see again.

Listen. If it involves my home or money. I'm not giving over anything or putting my name to anything, especially if it's substantial, that I've not taken some time to look over, so he would not have bothered with me. He'd have left me alone. Because I don't believe in mixing up my finances with anyone, except the bank and I would visit the bank so I know I'm in the right place.
He'd be charming and I'd be just as charming in telling him how I operate. I suppose I might also have missed good opportunities in the past because of my oh, so cautious attitude. I'm one of those people who would rather give money, than lend, so might have given him some money if he needed it, which couldn't be much because, as I'd see it, he's not my responsibility; furthermore, I don't like men who 'eye up' women's money, especially if he's not bringing anything liquid to the table, I wonder about their self-respect as a man....sorry...I consider these things.
Perhaps too cautious, come to think of it.
I had a housemate like that. Put on his suit every day to go to his “job” at KPMG. One day I came home early to find him on the couch. I called reception next day and they’d never heard of him.

Or how about using common sense like the good old "if it seems too good to be true...." People's greed gets the best of them, that's why they fall prey. People, handle your own finances for God's sake!!! Do your research. No excuses with all the info on the internet nowadays!!
yea banks care about you lol
@@kiput3647 you are right but they are a bit safer than some joe blow promising something too good to be true.
Banks are great with our money. No bail outs to see here people, keep moving.
After A divorce, the kids should come first and relationships last.
He always did things with her sons when she had to work! He only started to use the son when he got involved with the girlfriend & the son was conned by Hamish too!
5:29 she missed the sharks teeth ready to eat her .. paleo what?!? JAWS rt there 🤣
BGivka so judgmental, shame on you
What are u talking about ,that exactly what he did be-friended the kids first then he moved in on the mom! and she was dumb enought to fall for it! No man is interested in kids that are not his, so the fact that he was interested in her kids should of been a RED FLAG!
He humped the mom and the sons G friend lol pure evil
To Bec's son.....you are more of a man than Hamish.......even at 16.
Wow... when these women talk about their experiences with this man, you can literally feel their pain... so sad.😔 I honestly feel for them.
But then they thought with their p.....s!
I love it we men pay more thrn this in history
I dont feel any sympathy
Karen Lowe owned a multimillion dollar mansion after the marriage breakup. And where the hell did she get that mansion? Of course, from her ex-husband whom she conned in the divorce process. She met Hamish bacause she was greedy, too.
@@ericephemetherson3964 . She brought it with her own money prehaps. You seem to be one of those woman haters.
My heart breaks for this mom of 3 boys and all the others he scammed. It's scarry that people like this man live among us, and most of the times they camouflage well, by the time they are being exposed damage is already done.
Atheist Mommy you can thank god u weren't scammed oh ~~~wait a problem
@@tomerphjudgemental much😂
WOMEN WHY ARE YOU SO DESPERATE ! CHECK THEM OUT FIRST
*scary
She had a good husband and betrayed him. Don't feel sorry for her.
Human relationships are based on trust. Conned people may think they were fool but they are just normal people who were at wrong place in wrong time. That's really sad. But these women are right, they are survivers :)
So true...
@Kevin Burrow but others would...
Hypergamous bimbos, more like.
Zero sympathy.
at least they found each other and can educate and share their stories to others as well. Trust is paramount. Who do you trust?
@@am5790 my cat. How about you?
He looks 60 years old not 41???
These women were seduced by his status, and his projected affluent image. If he looked poor , I bet they would not given him the time of day.
Unfortunately you are correct.
Well said
And now Every man after this will be blamed
What a crock! The women are the ones who had money. They were after a relationship
None of the woman he went after were poor....or he would not be interested in them. Yes he had to appear to be rich to be in their class....but these woman were not after $
Classic narcissist. If someone seems too good to be true, they probably are.
He's not good looking but he's charming and that is stronger than being handsome
I guess charm is subjective. Seems like a douche to me.
That charming crapola is a facade. It should be a red flag to you. Repulsive. Not attractive.
Tell me about it!!! And they know how to use that charm SO WELL!!
face looks a bit like our ex PM, Tony Abbott
Oh yes. I had my own Hamish. Not handsome but so, so charming. Broke my heart in the end and got a chunk of my savings. Ugggh.
To the men who scammed the scammer, absolutely gorgeous job!!!
Love that
she shouldn't feel silly..nothing prepares you for this type of Sociopath.. My best friend had this done...slowly figured it out... could not stop it ..then it was too late
Exactly!
Classic psychopath! He ticks all the boxes.
Malignant narcissist
@ tRump? Oh brother!
@ Wow, aren't you a mature one...
@ youth is wasted on the young...
I can't believe this monster took advantage of this man with a severely disabled son that needed heart surgery. That is a pure evil man & he should stay in jail
Forty-one? ROFL! His ego allowed for him to believe that he looked 41. I needed a laugh today! This will do!
More like 61
Well he is 48 today so maybe it's your perception of what people should look like at a certain age that's distorted.
@@Gonken88 no way.....he look old as hell
Distorted ??
Even with that cap he looked over 50! And that's the youngest he lookes - in that vid where he says wife, he's on a boat and it's quite dark..
Without the cap during the day he looks 58!
One man told me he was 17 years younger htan he was... I soon rooted out the truth.
This proves love is a temporary stage of psychosis
It does?
Funny I dated a pathological liar and he was LOUSY in bed too. You can't be a great lover when you are completely self-absorbed it would require you to be able to think about the other person.
Facts!
Oh I hear you!
Amen!!!!!!!
EXACTLY...I dated a psychopath Filipino from a high-class family in Dasol and LOUSY LOUSY in bed. Loves himself too much.
I agree. I’m superb in bed and I’m not a pathological liar. Proof if ever it were needed that your theory is sound and 100% correct.
I don’t trust myself with my money let alone a stranger.
😂😂😂😂
😆 right!?
😂😂😂😂
haha same
Anybody can be scammed even you .
The story at the end is fantastic.
Good old British detecting!
But they aren't British they're Australian.
JackintheBox Not the guys at the end.
@@radofficial4672 Ya brexit Lol
JackintheBox the women and man with the stables are English
People have actually died in plane crash and 9/11. How could he even make that story up? Its disrespecful and disgusting.
This man put a serious con on this family! My heart goes out to the mother and her sons.
Was she gold digging ?
Meanwhile youtube ads are swindling millions every day...oh the irony
Well said to think it started with no ads at all!
@@amytaylor3715 yes, it's actually the worst cancer on the planet IMHO. Ads can be good but most of the time it's not. Ads basically intrude and invade our lives, steal our time, alter our thinking, brainwash, manipulate, entice, tempt, entrap us and at least on TV we could always flip the channel and avoid watching it but on internet, youtube, we are forced to watch it or a few seconds of it else we can't watch the video we want to watch. It's a crime in my opinion that they can just get away with doing this to us and break every single law but legalize it as legit advertising. It used to be from no ads to now 3 or 4 ads for a 10 minute video! It's insane and nobody seems to notice it or care (like the frog in boiling pot of water experiment)...they have increased the heat on us for years now to the point of boiling and we are dying and not many people notice it.
I also wish that I could force every person in advertising the same medicine on them. Make them watch 15 second ads everytime they get out of bed, want to use the bathroom, want to turn on the water, want to open their fridge, want to make coffee, want to put on shoes, want to exit the house, want to enter their car, want to turn on their engine etc. I want them to face ads every day just to see what it's like for them.
Learn your definitions before you starting commenting bullshit..
Swindling is the use of deception to DEPRIVE (someone) of money or possessions. I don’t think UA-cam is making you buy their adds or lose your possession you just press skip and get on with ya life
So are the majority of divorced woman! Lol let's get real this was ex husband money for the most part
I always live my life with this mantra: If it is too good to be true, it isn’t.
Original
Same here!
Makes no sense. If it's too good to be true, it is too good to be true, not it isn't too good to be true, which means it is fine -not the sharpest tool in the box.
A lot of white collar come from good family it’s just some people will get money any way possible
Well said!
Stealing 70 million from vulnerables is quite a talent he should have been a politician
If you have money, alot of it, beware of strangers who are a little too friendly.
If you don’t have a lot (two words) of money throw stranger danger to the wind.
I love the brits setting him up 💪🏼🕵🏼♂️👍
Yes. Aren't you glad to have us? @KXNG KXNG
Yes, I loved that bit - clever men (and the other Brit friend of teh English lady who worked out he didn't work at Goldman S). I suspect there is a much bigger story -0 not the 8m lost in Australia but the 80m of investors' money and where it is. They need a forensic accountant to chase the money.
@@treasurehunteruk9718 no that's why have the fourth of July
I think it's f****** hilarious and hypocritical. They like to paint these women as poor victims.
@@janesmith2770 I'd start with every storage locker from here to the moon....turns out that's where a lot of drug dealers are hiding their cash in America .
Awe, Im glad those 2 found BFF's in each other, and THATS priceless!
It's not friendship..they list make each other feel better about being idiots!!!
Yes, I could feel their friendship and joy with each other. Maybe the only thing good that came from their situation.
Such an amazing documentary ❤ thank you, greets from Europe 👏🏻
Warren Buffet said a true fiduciary heart is rare. Don't trust someone because of looks or money. Look at their long term actions.
He doesn't even take care of his own granddaughter. She's a nanny. I think he's a jerk.
That saying coming from an ugly guy...rich but ugly
@@insearchof9903 don't do that. So rude.
She is not his granddaughter
@@EnglishTeacher1998 What?
He's NOT attractive AT ALL. Him zeroing in on her kids should have been a HUGE FLAG.
um, he's totally hot.
@@ohmusicsweetmusic lol. Not at all!
He's almost blend-in-with-the-woodwork looking. Which for a flim-flam man probably works BEST.
Ya he’s attractive- it just depends on what a woman’s attracted too- he knows what he’s doing unfortunately
sgtdemanda Please. We all know you'd fall for the first guy you find "attractive" who claims he has a big wallet and spoils you rotten. Here's something you need to learn. Never mix your emotions with your thinking. You see you already KNOW this man is a scam artists so therefore you *feelings* decide how your perceive his appearance. But this very same *feelings* of yours would just as same FOOL you into falling flat on your nose for any man who is half attractive and makes you feel "special" (the word here is FEEL I don't believe you do much rational thinking).
The bottom line is this: Whether he is attractive or not is totally IRRELEVANT to his CRIME. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder. We all have different taste. Some of think more whereas others are too swayed by their own feelings. And the dare I say infantile "Hindsight is 20/20 wisdom" (no wisdom at all).
I could see the eyes of a reptile in this drabby looking figure
totally! he even looks like a sociopath! How could she not see that? But I guess love is blind...
@@reeves326 WOW! Way to kick someone when they been duped &....but you are so smart, this or something like it couldn't happen to you right 🤥? Whatever dude 🤣😂
With this much charisma and talent with convincing people, he could have truly made money/wealth, legitimately!
