I am 71. I am of sound mind and live and support myself on social security. When I tried to contact her to keep her promise to pay, she filed a police report that I was harassing her. Is this a crime and where do I start to file my complaint? Now I feel like this woman has done this before. I never saw it coming. She is good.
Come to find out he was a life long con artist, been in jail. He was out to marry my well off mother in law and take full advantage of her. He boasted to my husband that he would ban him from his childhood home.
Fortunately my mother in law loved her children more than this creep and she has children who are educated, smart and agressive enough to hunt him down. The police got involved also.
I would report her to the police. She is intimidating you. Since you gave her money it changes some of the dynamics of the situation. Once money is exchanged, it becomes a scam.
Don't trust someone just because they go to church with you. This is one of the number one places con artist pick their victims. The trusting souls.
Call Adult Protection Services - this is financial abuse and a crime; you might file your own police report. Have you discussed this with your minister. It might protect other people in your church.
Makes it very difficult to help people that really need it. Best wishes.
