That's the last time we talked... we chatted later that evening just to clarify that I need to be ready because anytime the documents will be here soon and need to present it to the embassy for them to give me a Visa..
But, Nothing came.... I was a victim of MAKE BELIEVE SCAM...
I am writing this to all of you and also to stop these people for doing it again. And also I would like to appeal to those people concerned, because they know me a lot, my address, email add and telephone number and even they had my signature, they might use it bad. I was so depressed and disappointed because of this bad things happened to me.
Thanks you and more power.
