Check Fraud Scam

I am selling my cute Mini Schnauzer Pups and had a guy try to buy it from me off the internet and wanted me to have it shipped to him in New York... I waited for two weeks and sent him an email and told the guy he either sent me the check by Wednesday or the deal is off... I came home to a UPS package with a different name on it so I opened it and in it was a check for $3500.00... I looked at the check and knew right away something was wrong... The check had a lady's name on it from OH and the check was from a bank in HI and the UPS package was sent from a guy in GA... So I then took the check to my bank and told them about it they faxed a copy of it to the bank in HI and they called back and said it was a fraudulent check... This guy wanted me to cash the check keep my $500.00 and send my puppy with $3000.00 to his so called shipping company... What a JOKE... Are you kidding me????? After about 6 blocked phone calls from some woman asking me if I cashed the check-I told her it was bad and I wouldn't cash it... Then I received an email form they guy asking me to go to another bank... I emailed him back and said NO!!!!! The bank said to shred it-The next day I got a phone call from a man who asked me what I did with the check??? I told him I still had it and if he sent me his address I would sent it back to him... I couldn't understand what he said but then he hung up... So I took it to the police and filed it as check fraud... The police advised me to email the guy and tell him that if he wanted the check he would have to go through the police department, and gave them permission to look and my phone records and emails and to NOT contact me in anyway and that his check was under investigation... I have not heard from them since.... This just makes me so mad that people in this world are like this... So the moral of the story is do not trust anyone and make sure you watch your own back because this happens all the time... These people are just looking for their next victim to scam.....

Trying to think of him

So I went to Shopko looking for The Love Dare and found this GREAT deal... I saw this and just thought of Owen-He's going to LOVE me for this!!! (Owen has a passion for cooking) It's a kitchen island... Everyone who has been to my house knows that my kitchen is little with no counter space... So this is perfect Owen can have this in the middle of the kitchen and have more counter space to work with. It was $300.00 on sale for $59.00... Everyone who knows me knows how much I LOVE to find great deals!!! Well I got home and was so excited I couldn't wait to show him... He was not as happy as I thought he would be... He said it would be to big and we would have no room to fit it in our small kitchen... So then I told him he was being like the wife in the movie... I had tried to do something nice for him and got REJECTED... He then took a second and said I am so sorry.... Thanks Babe.... for thinking about me lets go put it together and see what we have... We had a good laugh about it and then he put it all together and this is what we have... It is a little big but I figure he will either like it or not... I tried...

Fireproof and The Love Dare Book

Ok -so my Mom told us we needed to watch this movie so we rented it on Friday night and watched it. WOW what a movie... We loved it and we found so much truth in it on how we each become a little bit selfish as we are married for a few years... That book was just an eye opening concept to making life better for the both of us... So I set out on a journey to find THE LOVE DARE so that I could start my 40 days of being a better wife... I can't find it at any store here... So I ordered it from Barnes and Noble for my birthday of course. I wanted the hard back book and the movie... I ordered it and got through with check out and realized I ordered the book instead of the movie so I got back on the ordered the movie... I guess I get to have the whole set... I am up for the dare and can't wait to get the book... For anyone who hadn't watched this movie (WATCH IT) It will change the way you are and make you want to be better!!!!
