Richard Alfredo poses as a gemstone dealer in the middle man selling his gemstones to jewelry stores. He then gives you his email address and starts with the love letters. Then he sends the pictures. The next thing you know he is traveling to Malaysia or Singapore to buy his stones with Chin Gem and gets caught with all these fees and asks you for money to help with it. I got caught up in this. He will ask for the international transfers and gives you information where to send the money. He then has to travel to Malaysia to sue the company and needs money for lawyer fees. He uses WHATSAPP to communicate with you. This is his ammunition. I told a friend of mine about him asking for money and she reached out to women on his Facebook page with the thumbs up for his photo. She posed the question this guy is asking my friend for money and a lady came forward. His target is older women. I drove to Jacksonville Beach, Florida to the address he gave me and he didn't live there.
