Western Australian police quit saving people from romance scams

October 24, 2017 // by Donna Andersen// 2 Comments

Project Sunbird, a joint operation between the Western Australian police and Consumer Protection departments, had been identifying 53 new romance scam victims a month by analyzing financial data. They were sending money to con artists in Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Ghana, togo and Benin. According to PerthNow.com.au, 75% of the victims stopped sending money after receiving a warning letter from Consumer Protection. Of those that persisted, 40% stopped after receiving a second letter. But the new Western Australia police commissioner, Chris Dawson, killed the project because of "resource priorities." WA Police handball romance scam investigations, on PerthNow.com.au. …

Women allegedly betrayed by philandering Air Force colonel petition for official investigation – you can help!

October 6, 2017 // by Donna Andersen// 9 Comments

Military officers are held to a higher standard of behavior than the general public. Military law criminalizes "conduct unbecoming of an officer" such as adultery — that is, if the law is enforced.

She says the lieutenant colonel used "military assignments" as excuses to juggle the women. She says he even rotated the women at Air National Guard events, and none of his fellow officers called him out. Read her story here: Part 1: Nina's Story — A charismatic doctor and lieutenant colone …

I’m sure the money he lavished on them did not hurt, and he likely reframed everything, finally revealing the “truth” about me. He had endured me long enough. Surely, they wanted hi …
