Utah MySapce con man arrested

Man Accused Of Targeting Women Online To Cash Bad Checks Arrested:
23-year-old Jeff Ipson of West Jordan, Utah has been arrested for scamming women out of thousands of dollars. Ipson would meet these women on MySpace then convince them that he had money. Then he would pull a scam that I usually only see on craigslist

“He said, ‘hey we’re closer to your bank and most people don’t take personal
checks so how bout I just write you a check, and you cash it for me’, and that’s how it started.”

Detectives say Ipson wrote out checks to the women, had them cash the checks at their banks and give him the money. The checks were all bad because the checking accounts had been closed.

Ipson is facing several felony charges of theft by deception.

  • I was friends with jeff. he told me all this stuff was in his past, obviously not. i exposed him to my family and friends… he even helped my dad in his yard. i really cant believe he’d go and do all this again… some people never learn.

  • I met jeff at a party and then he found me on myspace. He told all the lies, flashed his money and tried to convince a friend and I that he was in law school. We soon caught him in many lies and stopped all communication. He stalked me, followed me from work, email my friends. Guess I was one of the lucky ones. At least he was good in bed.

  • This guy was my first.I was 13 and he was 16. My mom didnt want me going out with him & thank god for mothers intuition.. I too was one of the lucky ones. He was sketchy even back then.. From one girl to the next.. full of stories. What a ass! This makes me sick thinking it couldve been me and sick for these poor girls. I dont even count him as my first anymore because im just so disgusted.. And his poor daughter!! Go to hell Jeff.
