Newbies Posting Tragic Story Posts

[Mags 112]

Then again all I can stress is that you notify the mods, Steven. I think lal_brandow was the one handling all of the MENA spam, PM her and inform her that you think this may be another spamming post.

Again, replying to someone you feel is an obvious troll just feeds them.

if you guys see any more spamming by this member, please let me know.

Yup, Lal is the SpamQueen. Now, why do I have images of her covered in pink tinned mystery meat?

I know, but it's so much fun.

...seriously though, when I read her thread, I didn't have time to look or make the direct connection other than wondering why all of a sudden all these broken hearted women who were married to Arab men are posting about their tragic stories, so I didn't really know whether she was sincere or not.

She's baaaccckkkk. She has three or four names here (you can tell by the constantly repeated very poor writing style and grammatical/spelling errors) and was banned was another site. She's very unstable woman who invents entire scenarios. When busted, she comes up with some excuse i.e. "I meant this poll/survey/whatever to be in a PM" . . .

Thats funny. I am new, but when I saw at least 2 posts with different names and the same story, I actually thought about that that

Remember that one lady who had posted up photos of women here on VJ who were marrying Arab men on a website? That's who came to my mind when I read the first post. I thought - either she'll be soon exploiting this tragedy or perhaps she's behind this charade? hmmm....

Thats funny. I am new, but when I saw at least 2 posts with different names and the same story, I actually thought about that that lady and the site too! But I don't know how to report to a moderator?

My response to all of you is she is for real...if the post was repeated more than once...you can ask yourself possibly someone was copying her text...it is a possibility...based on experience I know that the information she gave is valid...what I am picking up from previous posts is that there are several people here that are very uncomfortable hearing the truth!! And, I think you know it is the truth - even if it was repeated...evaluate your own stories and compare notes...I think she was brave to tell you all what happened to her and I also think she is very brokenhearted and crushed...she is sending out a warning...so heed the advice and don't worry too much about how many times it was posted...it is still the truth...I have been on the website for a while and gained alot of information and help and I would like to thank you all for being courageous...but stop killing the messenger and focus on the truth...Amen. God knows how difficult this whole process is...and I am waiting too...patiently...God Bless!

Nobody shoudl have a problem hearing that there are men out there using women for green cards, that there are men who are liars and cheats. Everyone should go back and read the OP, it was an across the board attack on a whole culture based purely on one woman's experience. I can;t imagine anyone NOT being outraged at that!

Especially here in an immigration forum. I think we've slipped a bit on our wisdom if we are now allowing people to post negative racial, ethnic or cultural stereotypes as long as they tie it in with their own personal tragedy...."I was mugged while vacationing in Jamaica. Watch out for them Jamaicans, Cubans, Puerto Ricans, and Haitians...they're crafty in thievery."

Not only that -- but the fact is she is rather well known on immigration forums. Before being banned from the last site, she revealed that she was never married to the person she claimed to be married to, and was not even the person who filed a petition from him. So while her experiences with this particular man may have had some grain of truth to them, she embellishes (read: lies) greatly and very often attacks members. Before banned from the last site, she sent PMs to members attacking their looks and weight and demanding that the only possibility was that their husbands were using them for green cards.. The fact that she wasn't smart enough to NOT use the same screen name here reveals even more into her cracked pysche.

Geezes. People with alter ego.

So she's a known troll and the thread in question isn't locked down why?

I don't get it.

Thanks for posting

she was not a known troll at the time she posted it, and in the meanwhile the thread turned into a conversation that some of our members felt was beneficial. it was allowed to stay for that reason.

I think everyone here knows that the future is unpredictable. We could only guide ourselves to see our own future, not to control it. And, we are not kids. Everyone here have experienced that not everyone is the same. That is a big duh!

Aren't most of us here skeptical about personal stories posted from somebody who just joined, particularly if they give out advice based on blanket stereotypes of certain foreigners?

Adding to the suspicion is how these noobs already know al the features of the site and the dynamics of the people here.

It could be that the person created a new account, but was on VJ before in the past with a different ID. That may be why she knows the features of the site, etc. I'm not saying this is the case but it could be.

The reality is that even if all the things she was saying were true, no one on a visa board is going to listen anyway.Until you are faced with the harsh reality of someone using you and breaking your feelings, you do not want to accept the pain or the truth. I have one friend who has been used by 3 different Moroccan men for papers since the 80s and each time, she went for the same type, illegal and no job here in Orlando. No one will listen to warnings ( not even me , ) so its futile for these doom and gloom people to post. Each person believes it cannot happen to "me" and then when it does most women are just too embarassed to scream it all over town because it means in her eyes she is unlovable if all someone wanted her for were papers. Getting used does terrible damage and trust me, you do not recover from it.. You never get your trust back
