Yep, came across one of these myself! Supposedly a "born and raised in the midwest" military guy couldn't even speak proper English....sounded like a foreigner who wasn't fluent in (typing) English yet. I even tracked down the guy who's identity he stole and let him know his photos and identity had been stolen. I never heard back. Scary stuff! (I wasn't on a dating site, I was on a pen pal site.)
