I can’t believe I allowed myself to almost be scammed. I’m a 60 yr old widow, who lost her husband almost8 months ago. I wasn’t on a dating sight or even looking for anyone. I was playing Word Chums...yes a game I’ve played a long time with friends and interesting people too, but I don’t chat that much...long story short without knowing I almost broke the law because of my vulnerability and a real smooth talker. I felt sorry for him and his family, if there is one, and was asked to get AppleiTunes cards and send them to help with food and shelter. I tried to get about $1,300 worth, but I use PayPal online, and they put a hold or something like that on it. I cancelled the order. I couldn’t get anyone to talk to on the phone, but there sight talked about all these scams. I am terribly embarrassed, and ashamed. My dilemma now is getting to talk with a real person at PayPal. I am forever grateful they have top security. But now I need the money back in my account where it should have stayed.One income on SSA. I read about different processes, but a little overwhelming, to say the least. I will keep calling when they open and pray this can be resolved. I feel like an old fool, but not too old to learn. If anyone has a suggestion, I would appreciate the education on this mess. Thank you for listening, and be diligent out there! Layla59
