Hey guys
How are you guys doing?
So, here is my story:
It was on Halloween, I was mysteriously messaged by a woman named Clarisse Mendioro on facebook. She told me that I was cute and way too cute to be a single, I had no idea how she found my profile, so why I replied back. She told me that she is a full time fitness trainer and part time model. After about a half hour, She asked me whether I wanted to help to vote for her in some model competitions and the money will go to some kind of charities I believe. After that, she sent me an instruction on how I can vote for her. The first site she sent me was citysex.com. I registered using my credit card (stupid of me, right?). After I did that, she sent me to another link, which is seeme.com, which I used to register that again. After that, she guided to several different websites. I used my cc to register them until my credit card was declined. Didn't know what happened until few minutes later, the federal fraud service center called me, that was when I realized that I was scammed. I called that place back and denied those charges. Then I told her sorry and I decided to delete everything she sent me (because there is a naked picture of her in that dialogue and I had no interest in that). Right after that, I blocked her, delete my facebook profile (which I believe is gone now) and deleted my old email (again, stupid of me). I was luckily enough to cancel the $29.99 subscription from citysex.com and I couldn't remember what others I signed up.
Two days later, I got a charge from yazbill.com for $4.99 with foreign conversion fee and some unknown charges from Florida for about $40. I called my bank to dispute the charges and told them to deactivate my credit card and get a new one. The day before yesterday, I emailed citysex to remove my profile, which they did. Glad that is over.
Although I have survived this, however, I did not have her email or facebook picture because she deleted herself from Facebook about few days ago. All I know was that she was from New York and lives in Texas as part time model and full time trainer.
Few things I learned from that lesson.
Don't believe everyone on Facebook.
Never sign up for some websites that you have never heard of.
No hot ladies (especially models) ever come up to a stranger and say that he is cute.
don't give out your credit card information, otherwise it's going to be a pain to get your money back and takes a long time as well.
