This person appears to be a big time scammer On July 2nd, 2009 salsero96 says: A fter searching for information on this person colmado_naranja on eBay, or Inspector Smith on Youtube...
It appears to be LUCAS SMITH as described in this photo on CBS news site: (you can compare his picture to the pictures on eBay) http://www.cbsnews.com/2301-500142_162-4179689-1.html
If you search his name and city/state, you will get his address... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rlz=1R1GGGL_en___US319&um=1&q=%22Lucas%20Smith%22%20Cedar%20Rapids%2C%20Iowa&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=iw Lucas Smith (319) 362-0354 1626 5th Ave SE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52403
If you search for his address you will find a myspace page stating that the house has had sightings of the virgin mary and will be up for sale soon on eBay... http://www.myspace.com/houseforsalevirginmary
Here in that same myspace profile, you will find a picture displaying a similar ebay username: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=433779327&albumID=481404&imageID=3980456
Also, I 'm not sure if this is the same person, but there was an incident here: http://blog.syracuse.com/news/2008/01/oswego_county_centerpiece_0116.html In late 2002, a man from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, sent an e-mail to the family. The man, who called himself Lucas Smith, said he was 23 years old and had emigrated from Russia five years earlier. He had seen the Web site and, Smith said, he wanted to help. The Wilsons stopped searching for a donor. Smith passed all of the medical, physical and psychological tests. They thought he was going to save their son's life. Then, on May 3, 2003, Smith sent Jim Wilson Sr. an e-mail saying he wanted to be compensated for donating his kidney. Wilson said they would pay his airfare, but because it was illegal to receive money for an organ donation, they wouldn't give him any other cash. Five months after holding out a lifeline, Lucas Smith disappeared. Login or register to post comments
And I have to certainly thank you for giving me the opportunity to bring more of my posts onto this thread. I was afraid things were dying off... LOL...
Let me get my coffee and I’ll be right back, ready for a fun afternoon....
The likelihood that the eBay sale is legiytimate for a real BC from Kenya is slim and none. Your effrots to inflate yourself at FR by insulting Freepers calling them ‘gullible’ is another story entirely.
Oh exactly..., it’s definitely shame on him for trying to perpetrate that kind of scam on people. But, I’m saying that no matter how much people, here, want to have that sort of thing be true, they just cannot afford to drop their skepticism and they have to make sure that they are not going to *make it easy* for scammers to walk right in and get a “free ride” for a while, off the wishes and desires of others here...
That’s just not right....
You must be bored today as S.T is going to hound you for the rest of it :)
P.S., Almost for got the LOL
I say “gullible” because *some* of these same FReepers that replied to me now, are the ones who were gullible a few days ago, when I was calling “scam” on it then... (and they were not, saying it was most likely true and that this guy better watch out for his life, because the Obamites were coming after him).
So, there is a big gullibility factor going on here...
All you have to do is go back to the posts when this first came out and it was “fishy” then... and see what I was saying about it being “fishy” and not right...
Hey, I’ve seen some of these same posters living in their own universe... :-)
Name them
I say “if the shoe fits, then wear it...”
Otherwise, I don’t have to let anyone know... because *they* know themselves, without me saying it... LOL...
But, if you want to re-read the threads... go right ahead and pay attention to *my comments* and to whom I was writing and responding to... then you’ll see...
Otherwise, each one can determine *for themselves* whether they believed it or not — back then....
Put up or shut up
4-3-2-1....diversion non answer post
See post # 135 above. You have no creds at FR, liar.
S.T is a total waste of time unless you just want some entertainment on a slow day, she'll never disappoint you.
That’s funny..., I was accused of not believing it was true back then, and simply trying to “cover it up” and not let the information out so that I could support Obama — and now — I’m accused of *not recognizing* that everyone else that was posting to me, back then — also knew it was not true, and I just didn’t recognize their own statements were *really* and actually claiming that it was a fraud, in the first place...
LOL...
Now... that’s really, really funny for anyone who reads through those threads...
And since you were there, you saw it too... :-)
My, my... how short the memories are of some who post here..., just a matter of mere days....
Oh... are you trying to shift it away from the fraudulent document now... LOL...
Afraid to have some poster appear gullible, one day believing it and the next day denying it... :-)
It’s a loon, not a duck. Loons don’t quack.
Name them
Yes, it’s always better to shift the focus away from being gullible and believing a fraud to another subject that everyone can jump in on... :-)
One day, one is accused of “not believing it” and what do you know... the next day they are accused of “not realizing that we never believed it in the first place”....
That deserves a double LOL...
No..., that was me... “quacking” at the quacks... LOL...
Well, did anyone believe it was legitimate or true, back then...
That should give you a list of names... LOL...
—
Of course, on those various threads... you’re obviously saying that all the posters were complaining about that guy posting a fraudulent document — right?
[... you’ve got to be kidding... :-)...}
This is getting to be good...
