Need Financial Help

Granny Marie started this conversation
I was recently robbed by an internet predator.  He cleaned out my checking account and overdrew the account at the same time.  I am in need of over $6000 to pay back the money that was stolen and the interest I'm being charged.  I lost a month's pay as well.  Please! I need help!!!

I'm not sure how to contact the Federal Trade Commission.  Do you have any suggestions?

I have an account with Prosper but due to my credit rating being so low because of the theft of my finances, I cannot get a loan even through Prosper.  I have managed to get all the outstanding checks paid and a couple of the medical creditors have been paid; however, I still have three (3) creditors to pay off and one (1) went to legal action.  My current indebetness is approximately $4500.  I pray for loving Christian to approve a low interest loan for me.

While the US may be a wealthy country, there are many people who suffer here as they do in many other countries around the world.

Yes, we have our corruption in government, but, so does everyone else. We are no better, or worse, than any other country. Our government does not define us, it is the people within our country who define who we are as a nation. Unfortunately, you will probably never meet most of them, because unlike the wealthy, the most giving and most caring people, are sometimes the poorest. 

 I think people have a lot of preconceived notions about one another and that prevents them from really reaching out and getting involved with others. A lot of what we think we know comes from tv, our families, past experiences, and "society's" views. None of this propaganda should be thrust upon any person.  Meet a person and see who they truly are, prior to making any decisions about their character. Judge not, lest ye be judged.

I realize that my listing isn't going to be much different then the million other listings on the internet searching for financial assistance. A while back I was on all the cyberbeg sites asking for help to keep my home. I was contacted by what I thought was a very heart warming person. They said they were going to send me a cashiers check in the amount of $4,000.00. Looking back I didn't see the warning signs because I was so desperate to save my home. Just typing this I feel so foolish because who in their right mind would send $4,000.00 to a complete stranger. Well anyways my bank cashed the check for me and I gave the mortgage company the $4,000.00 to stop the foreclosure. The check came back and my account is in the red $4,000.00. The bank has contacted the District Attorney and they want to press charges against me. I explained to them what happened but they said I still owe them the money. I don't have this kind of money. I am hoping that my story will get to someone who can assist me in getting out of my mess that I have gotten myself into. I'm not asking for anyone to give me $4,000.00. Anything would help. Maybe someone could loan me the money and I will pay it back.
