Scammed by my morrocan husband by ancillamcpherson
Hi everyoneI just wanted to say I have been well and truly scammed. 18 months of my life. Thinking I found the one, getting married, applying for a UK visa, successful. He came over and it 4 weeks, it was all a lie.Ladies be careful
Are you able to stop his visa or immigration? I thought it takes longer than that to process so you should be early enough to end it. Sorry this happened to you. It’s going to hurt for a while but you are strong. Read More

@Srg4mm so basically you proved my point. People lie once they get here so they can stay and they know abuse is one of them. The lady who used to do my facials told me she came to America for a husband and said he was abusive to get out of the ... Read More

First, let me say I’m sorry for what you are going through. Second, I’m an American so I’m not familiar with UK laws but in America we would be stuck. They know that if they say you abused them they get to stay here and you may be ... Read More

Thought I had found the perfect apartment but owner wanted part-payment under table. I can understand owner not being fan of 20% tax for resale within 5 years but couldn't see any benefit for me - declared purchase price wouldn't reflect ...
