  • I am so sorry to hear about your situation but, you know, the Internet is a wonderful thing, you can find out about almost anything!!!! If I get suspicious letter like this, which I DID BTW, I jump online and try to research it. I have been scammed too, believe me, so I am automatically suspicious of anything such as this. There ARE a few legitimate programs out there, but you really have to do the research before you send any money!!!! Good luck!!!!
