Gina

Submitted by I will refrain posting my name as of now, but wanted to explain (United States), Jan 11, 2010 at 23:44

"Gina" has been contacted by my regular e-mail address we have always used. She sent a Friendly Merry Christmas and an update on her new husband and life in USA, (with Christmas and things that are known to her), responding back to her happiness was the least of my worries with all the unforeseen incidents in my life which are on the heels of being corrected. My home phone is accessible to her and is also listed in whitepages.com. This is a stranger who OFFERED to loan money. I did not ask! I also do not like to be called a SCAMMER due to a scammer takes and have no intentions of paying back. It was at her suggestion to book the flight and not wait til the last minute.

I have stayed in contact with her except this last e-mail which was a couple days before Christmas. Besides my lack of e-mailing to tell her Merry Christmas back, it didn't require a response on his updates. I also did not sneak and plan a second trip without her knowledge. Infact she said to take off $150 of the balance to buy a wedding dress as a GIFT. I stayed in contact before and after the trip. She did not try to contact me again after the Merry Christmas "- - - - - - -" went for his license etc, etc. so imagine my surprise she took it to this board and what reasons? Expose me for something I am not? If so, she will need to post her real name and also her story? I have e-mailed her as I read this here on Saturday. I have not heard from her by phone or e-mail unless she did not go to work today (Monday) as I was asked not to contact her on her cell or home just at work due to hubby's questioning, etc.

As for her continuous comments to me and here about my financial responsibily toward my husband and the sarcastic remarks, unlike her husband on a fiance Visa, my husband will have his green-card and able to work. He will not be a burden. Two incomes are always better than one. He is not a financial burden now, why would he be later unless he becomes lazy here, while he is not in his country. I will not post any further here on this matter, she has my contact info. I feel this was a private matter and not to be aired on a blog. I could care less about my info being posted here, but hers need to be also. If I wanted to scam her I could! I have never met her and we live in two different states and I could just refuse to pay her WHICH I HAVE NOT!
