The name of the man in the following photographs is called Dr Kerem Bikmaz from Turkey. He has his images used a lot to create fake accounts on Instagram and on all social media, online dating and gaming platforms.
The top two photos are of the real and genuine Instagram account of Dr Bikmaz, who is also a neurologist in a hospital and pain centre in Istanbul, Turkey. As you can probably tell he is not a doctor for the military, for the UN and certainly not deployed to somewhere like Afghanistan, Iraq r Syria as a medic.
Please never send any cash, cards or tech to anyone who befriends you on the internet. They are sure to be scammers out to steal your money and your self-esteem. Ladies we are the ones who have the power to change the scamming culture. Become educated, say no, report and block anyone who you think is fake. Do your research here on my blog and on my Instagram account @insta_scammers2018. Minimum research is trying a reverse image search or ask for a video chat. The answer is no? It's a scammer. Say no, report and block.
I just had this happen to me, and I was more curious than fooled. I reported him to Instagram and posted this blog to instagram as a warning to other women. Such a shame, can you trust anyone these days!
ReplyDeletePhotos of this man is scamming on Scrabble Go too. It's three of them in a short while. I have written to Dr Kerem to ask him if he can block his photos.
DeleteHis new name on Instagram is Peng Smith. He is a scammer. A very good one. He is also on Twitter with Dr Peng Smith 13
ReplyDeleteyo le envié mucho dinero... caí como una estúpida
ReplyDeleteLo siento. Es una experiencia que no olvidaras. Nunca mandes dinero a nadie.
DeleteAs of yesterday, he is on instagram as David William7828, be careful ladies, already reported it
ReplyDeleteThere is Nigerian going under Travis Hollen using Dr.Kerems pics..fake be safe ladies.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately , I almost fell into this type of internet friendship myself although I knew better. Within the second day strange things happened such as the deleting of texts on messenger. It took me a few more days of research and investigation which had no information on the so called, "Noble James", so I blocked him and stopped all contacts with him. Nevertheless, I was still curious as to whose pictures he was using. Early this morning i found Dr. Bikmz' pictures connected to many scams. I wonder what can be done?
ReplyDeleteThere is a scammers site on Google. I report them all. Nine out of 10 people wanting to befriend you will be Nigerians using other peoples pics. They also have. Nerve to calm you. It's so obvious that they are Nigerian when you hear the back ground houses and the accent, it's quite laughable.. don't confront them, just report and block.
DeleteHe is also using the name David zailani using kerem,s pic on Facebook

I was betrayed by him too. He said, he was Dr. David Rodovan, currently being as a Doctor in Israel in a Victory Camp and need a vacation. I did really heard fist with my heart but then I was really suspected and today morning I wanted to look through Internet and bang! found this one.
ReplyDeleteHe is also using the name,Mark Davis,among others. Said he was in Iraq,working forthe UN. No access to money etc. When challenged that he was using stolen photos, he said he was the real Dr Bikmaz but was using a false name to protect himself. All lies.

A Facebook account under the name of Pravin B. Theodore is using Dr. Kerem’s photos and information. Something needs to be done to stop these fraudulent and malicious acts.
ReplyDeleteAha! Currently out as a Mark Williams from Freemont, CA. Curiosity got to me so I friended him and waited for four messages and the inevitable bad English. Keep aware ladies!
ReplyDeleteEr schrieb mich gestern über Pinterest an, sein Name wäre Andrew aus Bistrol. Er lebe in Großbritannien und ist geschieden. Zur Zeit wäre er Syrien als Arzt. Sein Sohn Alex würde in London studieren.
ReplyDeleteVorsicht!!! Mich hat er als Marinearzt der Navi der un Norwegen stationiert ist angeschrieben. Will nach Deutschland heiraten
ReplyDeleteThere’s a guy named Steven or Stephen Allen who says he’s an Orthopedic doctor working in Syria for the UN and has a daughter, Cheri in boarding school and wife died of cancer/leukemia. He makes crazy promises to marry you and to buy a house together etc. He acts VERY RELIGIOUS but he’s a Fake! I’m seeing this guys name everywhere. Him and so many other scammers are using the good Dr Karem Bikmaz photos! Ladies if you are talking with a guy and he says this is his photo HE’S A SCAMMER & BEWARE! You’re actually talking to a creep sitting in some other country on a computer, making a killing by preying on innocent people.
