Many thanks to everyone who sent messages and comments to me regarding this matter. My goal is to educate everyone on the risks of fraud and scams through a first person account. I have found a great resource for those who think they may be victim of a scam. You should check out http://www.fightidentitytheft.com/ for a great database of first person fraud experiences and a list of the most popular forms of internet fraud.
