    how do you have his photo but no other information about him? And I assume that if you have no info about him, you've never met him before. So how do you know that it's actually his photo and not just some random photo from online?

    I have seen his picture on many other dating sites.. I contacted a few of the sites and reported the scams/frauds.. the only thing the dating sites can do is take the profile off... They told me the scamers download a photo or photo's of clients who were at one time looking for a relationship, they change the location, username,and a few other things, but the contents of the profile are generally the same as the one time client... I'd like to post his picture somehow to find him and let him know he and his SON'S photo's are being used for scams/frauds to lure other women in to get monies, who knows what else they are using of this man and his young son... I'd sure like to know if someone was using my photo's or information I posted on a dating profile site for fraud/scams... wouldn't you??

    Well first even if you do "find them" it will not change the fact that people are using them, or even stop them.

    Next you will not track down someone in a African nation using someone's photo, most likely they used it, along with 1000 others they find off places like Facebook to use. Or they do like many pay some locals to use their photos and passport

    They use buildings full of people, all who email, write, call and more, you will have 50 year old ladies saying they are 18 and worst.
    There is nothing you can do even if you found them
