in response to cuevaangels... Hi Robin,
I have news for you... I have been scammed six times since March. Every site I plead for help on has scammers. I had a person in June said they would help me catch up my bills. They sent me a check for $2300.00 which was the amount of my past due rent and bills. I called and the bank said the check was good. I deposited it, it cleared and I thought that they were an angel that sent me money to help me. So a couple weeks later another person sent me a check. This time for $2290.00. That one was returned as false, ficticious or altered. Otherwise known as a "fake" check. So I had again spent the money so I now owed my bank that money. I made a payment arrangement with the bank to pay it back so much every other week. Then another check came, the bank quickly put a hold on that one and sure enough, it was a fake. That one cost me $34.00 returned check fee but I did not spend the money. All was well when the check from June came back as a late return 6 weeks later. BOOM! That one that I thought was good was a fake check too. So that is over $4600.00 that I owe the bank right now. In the mean time, I have received three USPS money orderes for $950.00 each, all fake; three Moneygram money orders for $975.00 each, all fake. A fake cashier's check and so on.
There is nothing but bottom feeding scum suckers out there busy scamming people like me that is ready to lose everything and I end up looking like a criminal. I had to file a police report as a fraud victim so I didn't look like a criminal. Can you believe it? These people quote God and say they are helping people because God tells them too. These people from Nigeria, UK and wherever better be very careful. They represent satan not God.
Every site that I have went to, to plead for help is mostly a scam site except for Modest Needs, and you need a flat out miracle to get that help. I played their game for 45 days and never got funded. You can only have one request at a time so now I cannot reapply since I do not have a job lined up.
At this point, I am pretty screwed. More than likely going to get evicted, have both cars repo'd, utilities shut off and you name it. I have been scammed to the point of ending up in the homeless shelter.
