Here’s more proof that sociopaths never stop scamming. Back in June 2012, Lovefraud published a story about Andrew Funches, AKA Ty Fortner, scamming more than 10 women. Now, eight years later, we learn that he has a new name — Don Charles Andrew Tyler Grey Fletcher — but the same game. Except, where he once operated mostly in Chicago, he’s now looking for targets in London and Barcelona!
Yes, he legally changed his name to Don Charles Andrew Tyler Grey Fletcher. Having so many names is convenient, because he mixes and matches them, depending on the current scam.
For example, in addition to scamming women, he was operating a bartending/catering business and proceeded to scam couples who were planning their weddings. His company, Martini Black Professional Bartending and Event Svs, supposedly provided bartending and catering services to the Chicago area. Unfortunately, multiple couples contracted for his services, and consequently lost money.
To run this catering scam, he has created multiple LLCs in Illinois:
- Tyler Grey Bartending
- Tyler Grey International
- Hamilton West
- One Blanc
- SEC BLACK
- Martini Black
- Fusion Vino
- Tyler Grey Entertainment
- Chicago Bartending Group

As you can see, this guy is an equal opportunity ripoff artist. He’ll go after anyone who he might be able to squeeze for money.
But he especially targets women who are sensitive and compassionate. He’ll haltingly admit that he had problems — like bankruptcy — in his past, but he’s working on pulling his life together. Of course, his frequent name changes make it difficult to find out his history.
So check out the recent photos. If this man crosses your path, run as fast as you can in the other direction.
For more about his tactics, read Lovefraud’s original story:
I spent a long time on dating sites so I know how to read the lingo. In his brief profile there’s two warnings. He says people, not one special woman. So right there he’s telling you he’s looking for quantity. The second is he says up for a drink. Right there he tells you he’s not going to take you out for dinner, he’s not going to spend money on you and it’s going to be more of an interview. And what’s with the word, “up”for a drink.That’s a sexual suggestion. Once I learned to read the lingo I ended up finding the greatest guy and now we’re happily married. Not without a whole lot of heartache before. I wish I had known about Donna many years ago.
