Hello,

–I was targeted by a sophisticated scam and lost $100,000.00 which does not include the $50,000.00 in credit card debt I already had.  The shame of this happening  has been overwhelming.  This is so hard, I feel so stupid.  I mortgaged my house and sent almost $100,000.00 to these scammers.  The Internet showed a lot of information on the scamming company, all good?  The company's ID / Business information was used for the scam.. 

–I am 63 years old and may lose my house because of the stupid thing I did.  And when the monthly payment of $1,500.00 for the new loan is to start on March 1st, there won’t be enough money to cover all of my bills, plus the new loan payment, prescriptions, and everyday living expenses are more then my income.

–My name is Kim and I am looking for kindness and understanding, as I make this plea for donations.  As mentioned above, I was scammed!   I have Multiple Sclerosis (Disabled and unable to work due to the affects of Multiple Sclerosis cognitive issues), I have survived breast cancer, three hemorrhoid surgeries and some seizures.  I also take seven prescription drugs, due to my multiple Sclerosis, with depression medicine being one of the prescriptions.  I also have a fur baby Dog, Red is an Austrian Shepard, 15 years old and has congestive heart failure.  He needs two medicines per day, which cost $100 a month.  I am not sure how long I will be able to afford his prescriptions and mine.    

–I have been married for 39 years, this year will be our 40th anniversary, but I don’t think we will make it to our 40th.  When he finds out that I was scammed and the dollar amount, I am sure we will be getting a divorce.  I can’t believe I screwed up my whole life and will lose everything I have worked for for all of these years, after being scammed.  If you can find it in your heart to make any donation, big or small, it will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you, Kim Heim, and May God Bless you for making a donation. 

–Update:  02-17-26 - Just talked with the FBI Fraud Department and my bank, and there is no way to recover these funds.
