The scammer(Patrick Lawrence Kurt), portrayed a man from Manhattan, N. Y., got a contract to go to Latvia, to build an orphanage. When he got there, he had to pay for a tax lien to build, needed $7720.00 to pay, so I wrote out a personal check to Sherry Carroll, who apparently handled his monies in U.S. Second one I got a cashier’s check for $5000 to help pay for food and necessities to buy for workers to work long hours on job site. Now he claims he had a heart attack, and had to give hospital his passport for payment to hold until he can return back to US, and wants another $15000.00 for bills to hospital, which I have not paid out anything, reported it to police, FBI, and changed bank acct. numbers.
