“Doug the Scammer – hit another bar last night”


Most recent previous sighting on July 20th at Bakers Lounge

“Dear PoPville,

Doug the Scammer came into 18th & U Duplex Diner where I work. I totally fell for his sob story and gave him $20……his story is below.

He is now claiming to be a doctor & Director of Communications at Whitman Walker.

He said that his “assistant” was going to be having dinner at the restaurant & that he needed to find his keys because he was locked out of his Q street apartment. He said his phone and keys were in his coat (he only had on a white shirt and tie), which were in his assistant’s car, but because “they do work in churches and schools – they must turn their phones off.” He claimed that if he had money, he’d metro and cab to get to the church where he had a separate set of keys, then could get into his apartment. His tone is very quick and he makes you feel incredibly rushed where a decision needs to be made quickly. And I fell for it.

DO NOT GIVE THIS MAN ANY MONEY – he has not changed his look. Glasses, bald, white man.”
