The reviews provided are related to a suspected online romance scam reportedly involving a fake General Richard D. Clarke Jr profile across multiple social media platforms including Instagram and Facebook. This scam involves individuals impersonating high-ranking military officials to build trust with potential victims, often promising a romantic future. The fake profiles have been noted to request assistance with the transfer of 'important documents' or 'gold bars', typically asking for funds from the victims. Some users reported costs as high as $3,000 for this 'service'.
One user noted that the impostor couldn't make a video call or voice call, which raised suspicions. Additionally, there were instances where these impostors were found to make grammatical errors that one wouldn't expect from someone of their alleged rank or education. These red flags can be useful to anyone encountering similar situations.
It's not only the 'General Richard D. Clarke Jr.' profile that is reported in the scam. Users have spotted profiles impersonating other high-ranking military personnel such as 4 Star General USMC Joseph F. Dunford, Jr. and General US Army Paul LaCamera.
Users have reported these scams to the respective social media platforms, but there's frustration over what appears to be lack of action. One user claims Facebook is more likely to suspend legitimate accounts while ignoring fraudulent ones, contributing to the persistence of these scams. Users are advised to be cautious,... Read more

I am being scammed by Richard D Clarke Jr. Right now. He even sent me photos of a cabin in Italy where we might live its been a couple weeks and suddenly he has important papers and gold bars he needs me to keep for him until he retires next month. But it will cost ＄3,000 yo have it all sent to me overseas. Hecant access
His own money until he's back here, then he will pay
Me back and set us up for our future.. hes made excuses to why he can't let me hear his voice or have a video call. Ive been fed stories similar to his before so I told him I know he's really in a group of Nigerians running this scam and that im aware rhat im probably on a list of women to try this with （even though I say no each time）and goodbye.

A DESERT town of a couple thousand people. The didnt remove a SINGLE ONE! But I got banned.

/I am being scammed by someone pretending to be Gen. Ricard D. Clarke since
9/26/22. He started out friend be as he had seen a remark I made about rolling my eyes. So did. I think it was about 3 1/2 weeks when hen asked me if iI could send him money to send his retirement papers to the Pentagon. .I even confronted him saying that you can not retire from a foreign soil. He ignored that. the fee for sending his papers and thing is now $5000. Kis ;ove post are hust about nil. I would really like to have him caught and others using Military Generals names to scam people. U answered his request be case the month before I had been chatting with someone claiming to be Gen. Janson Boyles from Jackson, Miss. That was my first experience with fraud friends In the 3rd. month he wanted to send me a check so it could be deposited for me to pay his sons tuition for college. i told him yes. then he started asking for money because his network was being shut down. I thank God he only got a $200.00 American Express card and time spent having to change all my bank account and debit card.

There are a few claiming to be Generals. Generals do not use social media.They always have access to their money and everything like medical bills etc are all paid for by the military.

Just blocked a friend request from a scammer posing as General Clarke. I became suspicious immediately due to someone I know being recently scammed. Also an obvious grammatical error in the bio which someone with his education and experience would not make.

He is in Facebook, probably will be someone from Nigeria, they do it very often. They have the most beautiful and sweet words, very educated and correct. He just wrote to me, but I had so many like him, it is better to ignore them, it is scam.

This is one of more than 300 fake profiles, all with similar names and using the same set of photographs stolen from published sources. These profiles go by various names including: General Richard D Clarke (approx 55 profiles); Gen Richard D Clarke (approx 57 profiles); Richard D Clarke (60+ profiles); Richard Douglas Clarke (27 profiles); Richard Clarke (20 profiles); Richard D Clarke Jnr (20 profiles) plus another set that use the alternate spelling of Clark (approx 30 profiles). There are also a handful of minor variations on the name (e.g. Gene Richard D Clarke, Richard Clarke (Douglas), Douglas Richard Clarke, Clarke Douglas Richard, Richard Douglas and quite bizarrely, Clarke Silveria). In addition, a small number of profiles use informal names such as Richie or Richy Clarke. And. a smattering of these fake profiles also introduce spelling mistakes such as "Richard Dogulas Clarke". "Richard Douglass Clarke" or unusual punctuation/capitalisation such as "Richard D.clarke". At least five of these pages claim to be the "official page of General Clarke". But, there's nothing official about any of them. Regardless of the name or the content, they are all fake profiles!
Close scrutiny of these pages reveals that all of them claim to have a military history, but they differ on residence and occupation. Some claim to live in Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Texas, Washington or NY in the US while others claim to reside in Germany, Damascus, Syria, Somalia or Iraq. As far as... Read more

The Richard D Clarke scam is out of control. I have now documented more than 1,300 separate profiles using this name (or minor variants of it) and the same small set of photographs of the real General. Of these, about 780 have been reported to Facebook in the past two weeks. Facebook removed 4 profiles, but dismissed reports of the remainder. Meanwhile, the imposters are adding to their inventory of profiles at the rate of 60-100 per day. They need a constant supply of new profiles so that they can continue to harass women who may have blocked them. It has become virtually impossible to report and block all profiles simply due to the sheer volume of them and the rate and which new profiles are added. At the current rate of growth, Richard D Clarke is expected to have more than 12.000 profiles by year's end. Facebook is aware of this, yet does nothing. It's scandalous!

Last week I discovered the General Paul LaCamera who had followed me on twitter was fake. I called him out, he claimed he was the real deal. I blocked him. Today that blocked account is now listed under the name General Richard D Clarke. Same account new name.

I am a ME TOO in this with General fake **** Clarke, Facebook, I reported and blocked the site. Same drill as the others. On checking the personal page on site it said she changed her photo. Therein a few copies of photos of the real guy and lots of photos of beautiful floweres.
I was sent a very poetic hook line invatation which talked about being friends and getting heart connected, then immediately the push to google chat. On going through the sites different posts had the same hook line used on many women. Pathetic!! Facebook is not a dating site girls. Beware of predators, they are always so much smarter and cunning than most of us. And the real guy could put his brogans under my bed any day. Such a cutie 💓
