THE PINK LADY AGAINST SCAMMERS

I had a fun weekend.   On Saturday night I was out to dinner with my best friend MaryAnn.   We’ve known each other since we were kids.   Been through everything together.   So nothing I do out in public embarrasses her. I created a business card to advertise my blog.   And I pass it out any chance I get.   I put them in the folders when I pay the bill at a restaurant.   Well on Saturday we were at Biggies on Watson (good food and fun atmosphere).   So behind us was a table of people.   One guy and several girls.   He was telling his story about his being the “Rebound guy”.   Meaning the girls he meets they are on the rebound and he ends up there.   Anyway I thought this was a good opportunity to give out one of my cards.   When we paid our bill I went to his table.   I said I couldn’t help but hear his Rebound Guy story.   I gave him my card and said you have to read my online dating blog.   It is funny and I think he would enjoy it.   I told him I also had a you tube channel

Okay, so today I had a new guy contact me on POF.  We exchanged 2 messages and then he asked about my luck on the site.  So I told him.  A minute later he blocked me.  SCAMMER ALERT!!!         But the other day after my interview I received a facebook message from a guy.  It's not just the guys going after women to scam them, women also are doing the same.  I got his permission to share his story but I won't use his name. "It's just as I said before. Match.com , I go on trying to find someone because eharmoney completely failed me. I get one person in my inbox that was interested in me for what they claimed was who I was. They claimed to be a descendant of royalty that's been cast off for whatever reason (or might not have) but they make a living traveling and selling what they buy back here in the states. After a week or so of talking she said she needed help (this was back before I knew about this kind of scam) and wanted me to transfer funds to h

So today while I was at work my co-worker Sharon showed me a guy on Plenty of Fish.   He sounded cool.   Looking for someone bubbly (me), sense of humor (me), positive person (me).   So I looked him up and sent him a message.   We sent a few short messages to each other.   I mentioned about my interview and he said awesome.   Then says “I love sex.”   I laughed.   I sent him a note back “Thanks but no thanks.”   Click send and then blocked him.   LOL!!!   At least he wasn’t military.   (At least I don’t think he was). I did have a nice chat with another guy.   He was getting ready to meet someone who he was really interested.   He asked how I was doing on the site.   I told him about all the liars etc.   He said he had the same.   I mentioned my blog and my interview.   End of conversation So this morning I get message from him.   He saw me on the news last night.   He said he said he thought this was great that I was doing this.   And said a few other nice things.   He s

Today my interview with KSDK Channel 5 in St. Louis was aired.  It was so exciting. I am to thank Pat McGonigle for interviewing.  He is such a nice man. Below is a link to view my interview: http://www.ksdk.com/news/local-blogger-targets-crooked-casanovas/408194593

Exciting news!!!!  Every so often I try to publish my blog around different places on facebook and the internet.  Last week, I sent it in a message to KSDK channel 5 St. Louis's facebook page.  The next morning I got a message from them from Pat McGonigle from Today in St. Louis.  We spoke on the phone and he wanted to interview for their show on Valentines Day.  OMG!!! Well he came to my house on Friday morning and was there over an hour.  He is so nice and I got tell some of my stories about my online dating stories.  I am so excited.  It is supposed air this Tuesday at 6 am sometime during the hour show.  I am hoping they put a link on their web page so I can share it here for everyone to see. Thanks for reading my blogs and continue reading.  Love you all!!!

Sorry I haven't posted lately.  I have more stories.  Are you really surprised?  :) A friend of mine has called this a sport for me now.  Spotting them just gets easier and easier.  I have about 3 more fake military guys. Had one last week, not sure he was military, he sent me a message on plenty of fish.  I read it and he just sounded too good to be true.  So I responded back with a short message:  "Thank you for the lovely compliments.  The picture of you and your daughter is precious.  Are you for real or are you a scammer?"   Yes I did send that message.  The next day I checked on POF and guess what?  He blocked me.  SCAMMER ALERT!!!
