Grandmas been scammed for almost 2 years now
Just found this group so maybe I can vent about this a bit. So 2 years ago I found my grandma was in this romance scam when she told me she was talking to this famous singer.. she’s 68. She met this “guy” on a fan club page that was my first red flag, but she claimed they started chatting thru the app WhatsApp and he was supposed to come take a private jet to where she lives and pick her up to move her out to Mexico to live. Also he told her he bought her a new iPhone lol but she never got it. she had to sign some “paper” with her personal info to get him a private jet 🤦🏻♀️ it got so bad she sold her little house and gave him all the money from it she had to open up multiple bank accounts because she was maxing out her other ones she was taking out way to many random loans. She did get herself in the hospital to where she left her phone at the house and I was able to look thru it and I seen a convo between them and I was shocked it was nothing but love bombing and she was sending gift cards online from her social security checks and that’s all the money she has coming thru anymore. She now lives on my moms couch still to this day talking to this man even tho she knows we all know he’s a scammer… it’s as crazy that she has a wallpaper of him and her cropped together.. and my mom doesn’t care cuz she never had a backbone to put her foot down and I tried my hardest to get her to open her eyes but she won’t. Her life has literally been thrown completely away and it’s mind blowing to see. At this point I believe it’s a mental distress issue that can never be fixed. She’s treated me so poorly for trying to help to the point I gave up on helping the situation. Am I a bad person for that?
