Donald Joseph Albares Jr. Green Beret Liar and Fraud

alelks · 02-23-2012, 20:07

Donald J. Albares, Jr., aka Don SinePari, SinePari, SinePariDonster is a confirmed poser. His official records were received via FOIA and are posted below. While Don did not do anything for financial gain, what he did could be considered much worse. He posed as a Brother in Arms and conned quite a few people into thinking he was truly a Special Forces qualified soldier.

Official records show he did a stint in the Army NG as a tanker. Interesting note: his discharge date is smack in the middle of his claimed deployment to El Sal with 7th Grp! Don has resisted any attempt to verify his claims and has cut off all communications to anyone who pressed him.

Until a couple of days ago his profile on this site included the fact that he served in the following units.

ODA-531, ODA-574, ODA -735, ODA-016, MTT-7106 (711-06A), USMILGP ELSAL, USAIMA/JFKCENMA, 1st SOCOM

Don recently posted the following on another forum:

Command Sergeant Major Kenneth McMullin passed away on December 25, 2011 at the age of 71. "Kenny Mac" was known far and wide in the Special Forces community as a warrior, instructor, mentor and friend, and was a participant in countless Special Operations missions including Task Force Ivory Coast. I had the honor to serve with Kenny on two occasions - once at A Co, 3rd Bn, 5th Group and later at JSOC. Rest in Peace Brother.

Don posted this 17 Jul 2011. --- "Tell ya one thing my brothers, I'm up to my eyeballs with all this Secret Squirrel/Morocco Mole BULL$HIT. Everytime I ask someone to qualify themselves with what class/year they attended, they clam up or act like their training was on some redacted NCA report. Newsflash troopers - everyone who ever went to Jump School, the Ranger Course, the Q Course, BUD/S, USMC Recon or any other training has a class and year. EVERYONE. Even ST6 and DELTA operators have Selection and OTC class numbers.

Funny how he is doing the exact same thing he posts about. He has closed down his facebook account, stopped posting on all the other SF FaceBook sites he frequented, and turned the 5th GP Non-Vetted FaceBook site over to some admins he appointed.

Don also read the names of San Diego Fallen in Vietnam on 29 May 2011 at the San Diego Veterans Memorial wearing the items you see in the photo below. From what we can tell he's done this for some time now.

Donald Joseph Albares, Jr., you are a liar and a fraud. Your name will forever be listed here on the Professional Soldiers Hall Of Shame Inductees page.

Spread the word on this scumbag. Copy and paste this everywhere; someone has to stop this bottom feeder.

DJA, Jr, where the only things he's wearing in those pictures that he's met the 'qualifications' for are his sunglasses, white shirt, wristwatch, whatever kind of tooth that is necklace, and Indiana Jones felt hat.

Found in the dictionary under the letter 'P'...for Poser Piece Of S**t!

And so it goes...

Not only a poser but an SFA poser to boot.

I have wronged you all.
I have no excuses.
I can offer no explanations that will be satisfactory.
I now pay the price at home for harming innocents.
I expect no forgiveness, but I am sorry.

Well if it was actually Don that posted that I have to at least give him props for stepping up to the plate and admitting his wrong doing.

SinePariDonster aka Donald Joseph Albares Jr needs to be removed from all military websites and all his posts deleted as everything he posted is a lie.

While he was a member here he was never "vetted" as a Quiet Professional. Here you must personally know and have served with the individual in Special Forces in order to vet him.

Donald Joseph Albares Jr. fooled a few Green Beret's into thinking he was indeed a former Special Forces soldier. And he kept this deception going for years making friends based on his being a Green Beret. This is a very sick individual thinking he would slip by all these years and continue to stand in the shadow of real warriors pretending to be one.

Donald Joseph Albares Jr we have not exposed anyone as entrenched into our world as yourself and now you will stand as an example, a testament that where ever you are "we" will find you.

Donald Joseph Albares Jr your new quote:

Has anyone gotten a hold of the SFA and notified them that he was posing and wearing a Green Beret and Green Blazer, not to mention the awards....??

This POS's picture with a story about him should appear in the next Drop....

I emailed a picture the same day I asked if they had record of him. I didn't ask for a follow up and only sent one pic

He is where he belongs now.....

Good work alelks.

Hopefully one day these "poser hunts" will not be necessary but until then I salute my SF brothers tenacity for defending and honoring the truth!

Man, that dude had a lot o' cash wrapped up in his costume!

My Shame

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To All,
I have been asked by a member to sign on to PS to offer an explanation for my actions. While I doubt there is any legitimate explanation that can satisfy anyone here I will offer this:
I have no excuses – I have falsely represented myself to honorable men and the SOF community as a whole. I passed myself off as someone who had accomplished many things which I was no party to. I clothed myself in honors I did not earn or deserve and deceived many of you into welcoming me into your groups and calling me brother.
My shame and dishonor is complete and I expect to fully bear the burden of this for a long time to come and although I do not expect to be forgiven for any of this, I do offer this as a sincere apology. I am ashamed of myself and am sick inside for the hurt and anger I have caused.
My only wish is that no innocent in this be made to suffer more than they already have. My wife and parents and children and grandchildren are no party to this and should suffer no public humiliation as a result of my deceit.
Goodbye
Don

greenberetTFS · 02-25-2012, 14:22

He posted the same at Mil.com. I responded that IMHO nothing short of a written apology to the SFA (hopefully posted in the Drop along with his photo) and a letter of apology (to the editor) posted in his local newspaper would be acceptable.

Going back to add the requirement to turn over his green jacket/beret along with all unauthorized awards/decorations to the closest SFA chapter.
