when this first happened I felt like the
dummy of the year I really felt well how
stupid can you be one day I received a
letter in the mail informing me that I
had one of sweepstakes I thought it was
real because they sent me an advance on
it to help me pay the fees and you know
the taxes on the money and all that
think I kind of like got caught up in
the hope of it all like wow here's a
break who could use one hundred
sixty-five thousand dollars in this day
and age I was told in a letter to
deposit the check into my banking
account and in a couple of days destroy
the amount that I needed to send then I
was contacted again
asking for more money thinking back I
see where he was kind of rushing me
through the process because he knew that
it was only a small window of time
before I know it was a bad checks she
said to me well the check is the pilot
is so you go back in the day or two now
so that you can send me the money he
says I I'm ready to send off your check
he said it would be to me in 48 hours I
wired over $3,000 to Canada and then two
days later I found out the check had
been returned to my bank and my account
was overdrawn thousands of dollars and
so when it came crashing down I felt so
stupid I felt like I just want to go to
bed and never come out of bed again I
almost went into a deep depression
that's where i'm at now trying to figure
out how i'm going to clean this up you
know and still live
you
