10/31/19 - On 10/24, my life changed forever. This blog is going to very vague because it is mostly for me and I really don't want to go into any detail since it is very personal. I got involved in a stolen identity with a friend of mine from the RV park that I have known for quite sometime and she was telling me about a foundation to help seniors and she had been helped and everything was legal and I needed to apply. She had been sending me information thru facebook messenger. She referred me to an agent that would process the application. She is a good person, Christian and very,very honest so I believed her. At the end of 5 days, I was in debt, it was not her. I am not sure why I did not do more investigation but think it is because I really trusted her and she kept in touch me to re-assure me all the time. I did not have her phone number and we only ever communicated on messenger.
10/29 - In the evening, I lost her messenger account but found the one I had before and we had not communicated since 2018 so then I thought she must have two accounts. I sent her a message because I was getting frustrated with the agent. Well, Ruth did not understand my request, but was responded back. Since she was confused, she had my phone number and she called me. We had kinda a weird conversation because I later learned she had no idea what I was talking about. She re-assured me that God was with me and she was praying for me. We ended the conversation.
10/30 - Ruth called back and finally I learned that all this time that I had not been communicating with her, she was not involved at all with a Frances Duncan and I was SCAMMED!! My heart stopped since I had been so vulnerable and sent some money. I know, I know better and I also know I really did trust her. I can not explain my stupidity but I now have gotten a loan and have learned my lesson.
Today, Sue and I went to the police department but since not urgent to them, they had me make an appointment and will come out to the RV for a report and I will get my life back on track.
