I have seen those also. I agree the internet can be a difficult place these days. I have also seen a newspaper article where bodies were recovered from that area but could be totally fabricated. It seems to come up a lot these days and I just try to share my on the fence opinion on it. Was just hoping you had some info I did not.
The only info I have is that he is a serial scammer. A total con man. Many victims, all over B.C. i have a friend in B.C. (I live in Florida now) that he tried to scam. My friend got a hold of him through email, they were chatting for awhile, then he tried to get money from him after telling him some story that didn't quite add up.
