Police say a man who conned women over the internet in seven different states was arrested in Mishawaka, IN.

Raymond Holycross went by several names on a variety of websites and he duped women in seven states from Oregon to Michigan.

Holycross would convince women to take him home in exchange for love and affection. Once he gained their trust Holycross would steal from his victim's bank accounts or take whatever he could to pawn for cash.

Police tell 7 Action News he would set up additional relationships before moving out on his current victim.

Holycross' current girlfriend, Theresa Bridegroom turned him in after he pawned her expensive camera.

When police arrived at the home they found a stolen handgun in his backpack.

Holycross is being held without bond in an Indiana jail for stealing that gun, while police consider other charges against him.
