alleging they were contacted by Ray Ainsworth who claimed to be a solar
engineer and owner of Ainsworth Solar in Washington State. He claimed to
be a widower whose daughter had set him up on match.com. He claimed
his month with Match.com was coming to an end and provided the consumer his
personal email. After communicated for over a month, Mr. Ainsworth
claimed he was called of the country to claim material for a job he was
working. He claimed he had issues with transferring money from his Swiss
bank account to pay suppliers and asked if the consumer would help. The
consumer was asked to help transfer money and also pay his suppliers on his
