[QUOTE="donna723, post: 178352, member: 1883"] Wow! This does sound like one of those stories that end up on "20/20"! And I agree, it sounds like this guy is a con man and that your friend has truely gone off the deep end! So he doesn't have a job (and "prospects don't pay much!) ... she marries the guy, sells her house, what happens to the proceeds from the sale of the house? Good Lord, he almost sounds like some of those people on TV that have married a half-dozen women and took them all for every dime they had! If her sons have his SSN, they can check with the police to see if he has a record or warrants out for him. And I don't know if you can do this everywhere, but in the State of Tennessee, on the State's website, there is a place where, for a small fee ($15 I think), you can have a background check done on anybody! They probably do this in other states too. Your state's website would be on [URL="http://www.state.XX.us"]www.state.XX.us[/URL], the XX's being the 2-letter abbrev. for your state. Another thing, if he used a computer in your friends house, is it still there? If the sons don't have the expertise, someone knowlegeable about computers could take it and find out what websites he had visited, even emails. It would be very interesting if he were visiting dating and singles sites or communicating with other women while living with your friend! I hope this doesn't go where it looks like it's heading, and I sincerely hope she doesn't get hurt or get taken, but if she's that gone on this guy, she will be very hard to convince that he's not what she thinks that he is. And unless he's doing something illegal or there are warrants out for him, there's not much the sons can really do - she's an adult and can do as she pleases, even if it's foolish! At the worst, he's a crook and a con man. At the very best, he's a freeloader and a moocher. OMG, I hope I never get THAT lonely! [/QUOTE]
