Men Who Con Women

UPDATE!  Oct. 22, 2004.  Mr. Konan, the con man, is currently sending me emails pretending to be someone else and is threatening me with 'legal action'.   If you know this man, call the Paris police.

Call Police at 01.53.68.81.00, police report code is 075/115/351.

(update 12/06:  the last woman to have run into Stephane Konan call the above number and the Paris police told her there is no such report.  I believe they got tired of getting calls from women who read my website and called to find out if it was true.  I have helped a few women from this man, and for that I am glad to have saved them some misery.)  

His latest fake identity and email:  adam.bevan@wanadoo.fr (Adam Bevan) (12/2004)

I am making this website to warn women of a con man I personally had a bad experience with in May, 2004.

This web page is being made to perhaps save another woman from going through what I did.

He used the name Stephane Konan and said he lived in Paris, France.  He found me on a Yahoo Personals ad and chatted with me mostly using MSN Messenger.  He spent a lot of time convincing me that he was falling for me, and convinced me to fly from USA to Paris to visit him.  He also convinced me to wire him $500 for him to buy me travelers checks (which of course I never saw) and he met me at the airport to only steal what ever cash I had on me and left me stranded in Paris.

Here are the pictures I have of him:

steph10.jpg (10858 bytes)     steph12.jpg (92547 bytes)  Check out this lady's experience with a con man.  Sound familiar?  If so, dump him NOW!

The first picture is supposedly him at work and the last picture is him and his aunt.  The first picture is perhaps him, but when I saw him at Paris de Gaulle Airport, he was much much thinner and not near as healthy looking.  He was very thin when I saw him and I suspect that he is a drug addict and therefore why he cons women for their money. 

If you have seen this man and know him, you can turn him into the French Police, he has not been caught yet for what he did to me.  I made a police report on him on May 18th, 2004 at a local police station near where I stayed in a hotel on Cambrone Street.  Their phone number is 01.53.68.81.00, police report code is 075/115/351.

I will add more soon and tell you his MO, how he goes about convincing you he is for real, etc.  Women, be careful out there and watch out for low lifes like this!

 


This man found me on a Yahoo Personal ad and convinced me he wanted to meet me.  He asked me to wire him money for travelers checks and then come to Paris to visit him.  He turned out to be a con man and stole my money and left me stranded in Paris when I arrived there on May 17th.  

I am posting all the information I have on him so that other women will not have to go through what I did.

I reported the crime to the local Paris Police, but the crime is being ignored.

 

Here is all the information I have on him:.
His name and address and phone number.

Stéphane Konan
7 rue Berteaux Dumas
92200 Neuilly sur seine
France
Cell Tel. +33625827827
Home Tel. +33146430193

He found me on a Yahoo Personal ad and said that he would like to become
friends and after a while asked me to come visit him in Paris.  He convinced
me to wire him $500 in cash so he could buy me travelers checks in Euros to
"save me money".  Once I showed up in Paris at De Gaulle airport, he was
able to get me to give him what cash I had and then left me stranded at the
IBIS Hotel in Paris on Cambrone Street.  They have information on all that
happened, and I stayed there for my total time in Paris until I flew out on
May 29th.  Their address is:


ibis CAMBRONNE - Tour Eiffel
2, rue Cambronne - 75015 Paris
telephone: 01.40.61.21.21

This man is preying on women from personal ads apparently, and needs to be
stopped.  
I also reported the incident to a Mr. Mur at the local police station.
Their number there is 01.53.68.81.00 and he made a police report for me.

Mr. Konan also sent me information of his bank account for me to wire the
$500 to, it is as follows:

SWIFT WIRE TRANSFERT OF FIVE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (500) TO:

PARIS MAILLOT GESTION (P/O DIBY AGATHE 02/09811 - 09739)
DOMICILIATION: LEVALLOIS CENTRE

IBAN: FR76 3007 6020 9912 4335 0020 059
BIC: NORDFRPP

The Bank name is CREDIT DU NORD PARIS MAILLOT GESTION
Reference to include is (P/O DIBY AGATHE 02/09811 - 09739)
The account number is WITHIN the RIB: 12433500200-59

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also have emails and archived chat messages proving of his request for the
money from me to buy travelers checks for me in France so that when I
visited him I would then have them to use.

He said that he worked at http://www.cetelem.fr , > Contactez-nous au 01 58
61 96 99 ou remplissez ce formulaire.

He also said that he was starting a business called Picatrix and here are
the names of his "business partners".
Frank Amblard
Cedric Nicolas
Geny Yossa

He said his friend's name is Cyril Vergniol and also lived near him.

He uses the screen name LEMANGUIER on pogo.com to play chess.

He uses the following email addresses:
stephanekonan@hotmail.com
stephane_konan@hotmail.com
konankwakuu@hotmail.com

Here are some of his profiles online.
http://profiles.yahoo.com/qqadriya he used this one to chat with me on Yahoo
Messenger.
http://profiles.yahoo.com/stephane_konan
http://profiles.yahoo.com/konanstephane

he used this one to chat with me on MSN Messenger... He appears to still be
using this same one currently online.  His MSN Messenger ID name is Qadriya and his Yahoo Messenger ID name is Qqadriya.

I also found some links to the email address Calimero78@hotmail.com that may
be related to him as well.

I also submitted this information to Yahoo.com, MSN.com , Florida Senators and Representative, Paris Police and the American Embassy in Paris and as of 8/17/04 it has not been addressed except by the American Embassy in France.  I am sure they are all ignoring it and hoping I will disappear.

Here are some of the links Stephane used to convince me that he was for real.  If you are getting these links from someone, I would double check to make sure this person is not a Con Man.

http://www.french-country-cottages.co.uk/uce/ccf?lang=en&view=details&action=referenceSearch&currency=26&cottageRef=F06175&go.x=20&go.y=8

Supposedly this was a place he put money down on to rent for us if I decided to move to France. (link above)  Most likely he was hoping I would offer to share the deposit, but I did not.

http://www.picatrix.info

This was supposed to be his website for his company that he was just getting going.  He said that he gave them his credit card number to start website, but that they wouldn't take a foreign credit card.  Now I realize he was hoping I would offer my credit card, but I did not.  (link above)

http://www.cetelem.fr/

He told me he worked here.  (link above)

So, if someone you never met but wants you to come to him, especially if he is in France, I suggest you have him checked out by a professional.
