38. I Was Scammed! - An Online Dating Nightmare With Alex Sinclair

Alex Sinclair lost her husband Lee to lung cancer in July 2018. Alex leaned on her beloved dog and best friend Phoebe for support to get her through her loss. When Phoebe fell ill one afternoon, Alex took her to the vet and was shocked when her debit card was declined to pay for the visit. A man Alex had met online had stolen almost $60,000 out of her bank account through hacking into her accounts. This man, William, who she had met on the dating app Zoosk had gotten access to her accounts through her email.  Alex shares the details of the ordeal she is going through, the loss of her lifesavings, the roadblocks she is facing with getting help from local police, and the ultimate loss of her beloved dog, Phoebe.  If there is anyone listening to this podcast episode that can help Alex in any way, PLEASE contact me at [email protected] Alex also shares with us some red flags to look for when it comes to online scammers!
