I think she told the truth.
The remainder of the money she used to send me a parcel for my birthday that June. She bought me "The Incredibles", painted a picture of Mount Apo, bought me some tshirts, and some for my family too. I didn't send her money until July - when she had her purse stolen. I was worried then - but I only sent her £30. She hardly mentioned money problems.
I have helped her get a passport, her daughter too.
We have an ongoing court case, and I sent her money for that 10k. She still has it - but used 3000 when her brother-in-law needed a blood transfusion. Her sister later thanked me. She only used the money after asking me.
I send her a small amount monthly - 5k. When I first met her - she told me she was married and separated. We werejust friends for 6 months, and I asked her if she will get a divorce. That is when I learn about that crazy law in the Phils. We are seeking an atty now to get annulment. When I read some of the stuff here, or other sites "Pointman Cebu" for example, I feel like running away. But I know my girl is genuine - just complicated life and laws in the Phils. I am not taking huge financial risks - and I have a limit to how much I will do.
