Richard Johnson is his name

BE AWARE! He contacted me by Instagram on December 23, 2021, he was very friendly and nice at the beginning, and he asked me to switch to WhatsApp because he wasn't very often on Instagram. The next day he erased his account from Instagram. He claims to be an architect from Texas, lives in New Jersey and currently living in Turkey doing a mall. He has 1 daughter 5 years old and a son 9 years old. He is been in Turkey for the past 4 months and he is about to finish his contract and he will return to New Jersey.

After several texts and phone calls by Whatsapp, he starts flirting with me, saying he will love to be with me. I asked him to have a video call but he always had an excuse. First a bad connection, and then his camera phone broke. He sent several pictures of himself with his kids.

His accent was pretty weird not like an American, which made me doubt, and when I asked him about that he got mad. 3 weeks ago he told me he lost his wallet in a restaurant, and then the week following he said his kid had an accident when he was running after the dog and got hit by a car and that he was in a critical condition and that he needs surgery.

Obviously he needed the money for that, $6000 dollars. When I refused to send the money he got very angry and started saying it was my fault that his kid was going to die. But he insisted so much about the money!

I blocked him. And to my surprise now he has again his Instagram account. I already reported him on Instagram too.

So be careful and don't send any money!
