Daniel Gardener Initially responded to my ad on Craigslist regarding my request to buy Delta Skymiles. He persuaded me for two weeks to purchase a companion pass with Delta. He claimed he was an employee of Delta Air High Point, North Carolina

On July 1, 2011, I was offered by a pretender Delta Airlines employee offering to sign me up on a companion pass for a fee of $3000 so that I may fly free of charge for 12 months. This was very appealing to me because my fiance is currently residing in South Korea and I fly international frequently. The person had a wealth of knowledge regarding Delta Airlines and their policy regarding the companion pass. I verified the facts online. After about 2 weeks of exchanging emails back and forth (he claimed to have a hearing disability, which is why he did not talk on the phone), I finally made up my mind that he was legit and used popmoney.com through my bank to pay him $400, which was half of what I was to initially pay him. Afterwards, he would give me a login and then I would pay him the other half. It would take 3 days for the transfer to take place and between the 3 days, we exchanged emails. After the funds were posted, I have not heard back from him. I warned him I would take action for his dishonesty and fraud but he has not responded. I am very cautious about scammers and have previously never been scammed. The person was very believable and I do not want this person to scam another innocent person. I am not too concerned about the money part of it. The thing that really gets to me is that he messed with me emotionally, continuously, for two weeks. He made me have high hopes regarding the ability to see my fiance more often and to save money for my wedding. He knew all these things and still scammed me. I really do not want this individual to do this to anyone else. He did supply me with his banking information through USAA. I really hope there is a way to track this individual.
