WTAF?!?

Re: WTAF?!?

  • I'm disgusted, not only by her actions, but by the way she flaunted what she did like she was proud. And that second link about her MIL just accentuates what type of person she is.

  • @jshrop‌ that is exactly what I thought when is read it!! how are these people defending her? I couldn't wrap my mind around it- she sounded like a nightmare. also I looked at some of her other discussions and she annoyed me and totally rubbed me the wrong way.
  • *quote fail*
    Karma - I hope it comes for that woman, and hard. What she did is despicable, completely. I very nearly don't have the words for it. My heart goes out to the M14 board and the victims of this nasty woman's duplicity.

    And I agree with @jshrop & @stephross88 - I lurked on the two posts and can't believe anyone defended that entitled whore's rant about the glider. Who needs a $1000 glider anyway?! If you can afford it, awesome; if you can't, there are alternatives. I did see that our @snuff9861 called her out on the first post - way to represent J14!

  • Just sent a nastygram off to TB about this through the app. I love you ladies but seriously cannot handle or comprehend how someone could do this. I'd rather not leave the party... Fingers crossed TB takes action.

  • I mean, if you want to send me money, I won't complain, but I'm not going to steal it from you. The whole story is crappy.
  • Lurking this thread from May 14. Maybe I'm too naive but when I donated I didn't realize the money was going to a person specifically, and that it was up to her to do the right thing. I thought of it as more like a stewardship, where the money went into a neutral place and couldn't be outright pocketed by anyone. Lesson learned although I don't regret donating.

    @yvanehtnioj (and anyone else who donated)-- I haven't seen anything about how exactly she collected the money, but I think you all need to cancel your credit cards just in case.  Someone who would do this would probably not think twice about buying more stuff on your credit cards if she collected that info through a forum that allows her to access your info. 


    Second thought...does anyone feel like this could be a catfish?  Just because she has a facebook page does not mean that she is actually the person she is pretending to be.  She could be a 45 year old man using someone else's photos for all anyone knows for sure. 

    @gatormom2014 the site that was used is called youcaring.com so I believe she did not have access to actual credit card numbers, just access to the funds. I don't really know how it works, which is a fail on my part.

    I should've known better because I work at a non-profit and we receive donations a few ways, a couple of which go directly into our bank account. If someone were relying on us to do something specific with that money, it would be all about trust. There is another way people donate where they give to a site and the site sends us a check, and I guess that's what I thought was going to happen here: donation may have paid for the gift or went straight to a charity.

  • @yvanehtnioj that's good to hear!  I didn't want her taking advantage of you ladies any more than she already has.  Sorry you all had to deal with that.  What a despicable person...

    p.s. Bing is adorable!

  • She's been banned and the bitch is gone! Yay TB!
  • Wow! Words can't begin to express my outrage at those two posts. On a positive note, I greatly appreciate the ladies on this board and how things are run.

    That whole glider rant had me shaking my head. Really?!? Good bless all the trusting members that donated and the mother that lost her child.

  • Like pp mentioned, this stuff happens way more often than you think. I've been on boards where money was loaned for rent because she was going to be put out with her kids (a very private and closed board, nonetheless), people created false identities/kids/miscarriages, and even one girl who eventually admitted to writing a thesis based on all the information she gathered on the board. It's really sad. I generally don't trust collections anymore and limit my personal information.

  • This can't be real.
  • @WorldsBestDH‌ Forgive me, I didn't read the entire thread on your BMB.  This has probably already been suggested, but have any of you tried refuting the credit card charges used to make these donations?  Were the donations made through Paypal?  If so, Paypal has a very liberal "return" policy and generally always side with whomever sent the money.  Just a thought.  
  • I'm really glad the donation was made. I'm also really glad the perpetrator made it. I like it when people redeem themselves or change for the better.
