George A admits losing money to email scam

[yosande]

But did this woman have a LE background? Just saying....:crazy:

$400,000. she lost? I don't believe that story or GA's.
I simply can't believe anybody is that stupid.
Sorry, I read the article about Spears, and it wasn't stupidity, it was greed.

LE did the computer forensics. It would be easy to look back and see what was going on during that time frame. Now, either LE found the links/paths to online gambling sites, or George would have a receipt of the money he sent to this Nigerian thing in the form of a canceled check, etc. It just does not make sense. I just wonder if he has proof he sent money.

How could this Nigerian scam work with a credit card or even a debit card? It couldn't because then there would be proof from the credit card company or the bank if it were a debit card. It could be traced. So I am not believing this one. I say online gambling, and THAT can be traced.

I do believe that Cindy, George, and probably Lee have lied to LE and the FBI. You can lie to LE, but just ask Martha Stewart if the FBI lets you slide if you lie to them!

The scam that I've seen asks for personal information including bank account number FWIW.

 

[marla]

Is he a simpleton? :bang:
Makes you wonder how some people function in life from day to day.

Yes ..
And yes ..

Glad I could help!

It wouldn't suprise me if KC was behind his email scam. Like he said, he was computer savey, but KC was better at it. Obviously she doesn't mind stealing from her own family and friends....so it wouldn't surprise me one bit if we found out she was behind it.

Does George really expect anyone to believe he fell for this? He's former LE for cryin' out loud!
I say BS!:floorlaugh:

 

[RR0004]

Do people really still fall for those "You have millions of dollars waiting for you, just give me your credit card number first!" emails anymore???

I'm not liking his story one bit. He's no fool.

 

[Zoe Bogart]

I do believe that Cindy, George, and probably Lee have lied to LE and the FBI. You can lie to LE, but just ask Martha Stewart if the FBI lets you slide if you lie to them!

If you look back at an old interview C & G did with Greta (I think), when asked about C & G's story changes and Casey's lies, Cindy says "It's not a crime to lie".

After that remark, I also thought of Martha Stewart, plus several Louisiana bigwigs who got into trouble with the FBI for that very reason and also spent time in prison for it.

 

[diz39]

I am calling BS on this one. Sorry, don't believe it for a skinny minute.

 

[TURBOTHINK]

LE did the computer forensics. It would be easy to look back and see what was going on during that time frame.

I do believe that Cindy, George, and probably Lee have lied to LE and the FBI. You can lie to LE, but just ask Martha Stewart if the FBI lets you slide if you lie to them!

That may be a story to cover the $4,000 KC stole from George. She took the money he sent her to the bank to deposit and then made up a fake deposit slip. When caught in it, she started crying and said a robber held her up at gunpoint and she gave him the money. (yeah, right and she had a deposit slip?) When George wanted to call the police to verify that she had reported the robbery, Cindy threw a fit and told him NO, she would handle it.

This may all tie in with that. I don't believe for a minute he lost that money like that...........Cindy's brother said he had an online gambling problem and that I would believe before that wild story.

 

[TURBOTHINK]

$400,000. she lost? I don't believe that story or GA's.
I simply can't believe anybody is that stupid.
Sorry, I read the article about Spears, and it wasn't stupidity, it was greed.

In a follow up article on that, there seems to be some question if she ever had $400,000 to begin with.................

 

[Pink Panther]

I would be more inclined to believe that he lost the money through online gambling than through an internet scam. He tells the FBI that he very recently had payments to make for his mistake; that he was still paying some money down toward his debt. At this point, if it really was a scam, would he still be paying? Especially with the FBI involved...Would they not be looking into it?

Hmmmm...

 

[debs]

*Snipped

Disparate times; disparate measures. Wrong way to fix a serious financial issue.

Countzero, this was one of the most brilliant misspellings EVER. Disparate is exactly right.
Disparate:
1 : containing or made up of fundamentally different and often incongruous elements 2 : markedly distinct in quality or character

 

[Maya Love]

I would be more inclined to believe that he lost the money through online gambling than through an internet scam. He tells the FBI that he very recently had payments to make for his mistake; that he was still paying some money down toward his debt. At this point, if it really was a scam, would he still be paying? Especially with the FBI involved...Would they not be looking into it?

Hmmmm...

Could be paying his bank back if it was Nigerian type scan. ?

 

[lisalei321]

Could be paying his bank back if it was Nigerian type scan. ?

That would also explain why he and CA don't have a joint bank account.

 

[believe09]

FWIW, I don't believe it. I don't believe he was hit with a Nigerian scam-I believe he did something else with the money. This is a little too keystone cops for me when this man clearly has pretty reasonable LE instincts-jmo.

I find it interesting that Casey's relations were "strained" with GA after a separation from a few years ago according to Cindy. It seems that it is more likely that they were strained because GA wasn't buying into Casey's stories any longer...he knew she was not an event manager, he knew that she was not leaving Caylee with Zanny.

He must be holding his breath until he can actually leave that house....

 

[Patty G]

I tend to believe the gambling story more so then the Nigerian scam story. George had that little laugh when he told the story about the scam.

 

[countzero]

If you look back at an old interview C & G did with Greta (I think), when asked about C & G's story changes and Casey's lies, Cindy says "It's not a crime to lie".

After that remark, I also thought of Martha Stewart, plus several Louisiana bigwigs who got into trouble with the FBI for that very reason and also spent time in prison for it.

Bold by me .... in this case, yes CA, when you lie, it is a crime.

 

[Pink Panther]

That would also explain why he and CA don't have a joint bank account.

...And why the house is under her name and part of the reason she feels so entitled to call all of the shots...

MOO
