Scam or what’s?
What to do?
Hi,
I just have to vent what happened the last few days.
It all started with my wife getting a call from an unknown woman who called herself Mia. She continued to claim that she wanted to tell someone about me, and that I was on several dating sites and pretended to be someone else.
Apparently I had been in a relationship with this person for a couple of years. This Mia wanted my wife to know this.
She also got screenshots of this betrayal by showing a picture on a dating site where someone says their name is Carsson (that's not my name) and that we would talk on the phone later in the day. There was also an email address written in the screenshot that I was supposed to use.
There was also a screenshot of a picture of me, from about 10 years ago. The screenshot, however, looks manipulated.
I am not on any dating sites, I have not had any relationship with anyone other than my wife.
I feel offended, angry, sad and frustrated, but also a bit ashamed (oddly enough).
My wife, on the other hand, hung up the call fairly quickly and blocked the number. I have done the the same, blocked the number. We have also taken the matter to the police, and have filed a report about the whole thing.
The number from the person who called is unregistered, so we do not know who called, the wife did not recognize the voice. Even the police cannot see who owns the number.
What do I do now? I feel a great concern that this is creating intense friction in our relationship and we want to keep the children out of this. I am mostly afraid that someone will show up outside one of our jobs or even worse our home and create a scene.
Any advice
