Email: jameshollman@yahoo.com. Says he's a 50 year old German man who lives in Pittsburgh, PA and has a diamond/gold import/export business. Supposedly went to Ghana, Africa, which is where I suspect he lives, for his business. Started asking for things like a laptop, digital camera, phone, etc. Then asked for money to help get his goods shipped back to the USA by Customs. He has connections with another scammer, David Connolly. He even sent me documents to prove his business in Ghana. Uses a Magic Jack phone so you can't call him. Claims his ex-wife and her boyfriend ripped him off and he has a 9 year old daughter, Lisa, who lives with his mother in Germany. Put photos of her and him on Match.com along with photos of his "mansion" that he inherited from his father, Stephen Hertzog who supposedly died in a car crash. If you check out some of the romantic messages you get from him, more than likely, they are lyrics from songs. He's a crier, too. Sounds really convincing when he is sobbing into the phone about being stuck in Ghana and can't get home because he needs money to pay Customs. Claims he has a best friend Felix. He has a thick German accent so it's hard sometimes to understand what he is saying. Packages to him need to be sent to the Rasco Hotel in Accra Ghana. He even sent me a copy of his passport which is from Germany, but he's lived in the USA for the past 25 years!!!!!!!!!! Not very smart on that issue. He refuses to give his address in Pittsburgh because he is afraid someone will steal his money from his house which he says is in a vault that requires his finger and face prints to open!!!!!!!!! Woman, beware. I lost almost $12,000 to this man and I am a very intelligent person with an MBA who fell for this guy because I wanted everything he said to be true and because the photos he used (which I am now convinced are not of him) showed a very handsome man with such compassionate eyes that you would never suspect he could be such a bad person.
