Quote From: klagowMaybe I am missing something BUT - how can anyone actually adopt a baby without researching and at the very least, meeting the person first! People worry about getting cheated when purchasing objects online and putting their credit cards online but they will go through a transaction of adopting a baby without ever meeting and getting to know the birth mother? That's crazy! I'm not saying that these people deserved any of this but I still think they were just setting themselves up to be conned!
No no no you were NOT paying attention!!!!!
Did you not GET that Melissa finally unraveled her scam when FACED WITH MEETING these families? She led them on until there was the reality of them coming to her door. Then she boxed herself in a corner and had to lie her way out, although the lies for the families were heartbreaking...she had no choice. She could NOT meet them and not appear pregnant...right? She had to "end it" somehow, because it wasn't real.
DUH. Pay attention here. Oh and by the way, there were other victims who DID meet her in person. As you can see, she's huge...enormous....a hidden pregnancy would have been simple for her, without any proof. Adoptive parents try not to rock the boat, so they only push so far. I see nothing wrong with how these families handled themselves.
I see EVERYTHING wrong with the nasty con artist who sits there all smug and guiltless. What a wench.
