(31,735 posts)Andy provided contacts, verification etc and it was Freepers that swarmed in and hurt him.
I won't sit by and watch my DU community, many of whom are on fixed income with limited means, get taken in by a scam that plays to the best instincts of this community in the worst possible way - with a lie.
If the situation is what the poster says it is, it is incumbent upon them to provide some manner of verification.
Unless and until that happens, we need to look out for each other here. If you are worried about people getting hurt, extend that sentiment to those here in your DU community who would give even when they should not, because they were emotionally manipulated by a lie.
