Yeah, I don't get the creepy bloke brigade but I have noticed that the scam bots have arrived... I don't understand people like that. Dating sites are full of people who want to make a connection. How inept would you need to be to cold-call strangers on social media instead?

And the account claims to be American Navy. So either after a girl in every port, someone to send pics (just go to porn hub dude) or after a UK passport (unlikely as claims to have kids). Or, more likely, a lead into a scam of some sorts, playing the long con.
