Un-freaking real!

"She wiped out her husband’s retirement account, mortgaged the house and took a lien out on the family car. Both were already paid for."

It's like the obsession of throwing bigger and bigger turbos on a car, thinking the turbo is the reason that it doesn't make power.

Thats funny; a guy I know from work got scammed by that about 7 years ago. He told me about it the day after he sent $1000 Western Union over to someone with a guarantee of X amount of dollars. I had already heard about this scam before so I went and researched the region in which he sent the money and got a bout 2 million hits on google regarding a SCAM.

When I told him and he didn't believe it; he then went and did a search on it and. He in turn punched a hole in his wall and broke his hand adding insult to injury.

I think that they should all be found and shot on sight, fucking broke ass losers.

He should have looked for the stud first. Just like he should have researched sending money to anyone.
Theres really a reason that there is a saying "If its too good to be true"

That broad isn't a victim, she's an enabler. She dove into the fool pool headfirst and stayed in. It's one thing to be stoooopid enough to give up 400 large in one chunk. It's another thing to give it up 5 and 10k at a time over 2+ years. There is a special seat on the short bus for people like that.
