Mr. Camarasa, 

The Donna Story can be checked out by the Harrison County Sheriff's office, as well as the banks, the Attorney General's office and the Internet Fraud.gov. and my attorney.  I have all communications from the person committing this fraud.  I am the victim of an elaborate scam in which I lost money big time.  I am an honest person, I do not scam or fraud people and I go out of my way to help people.  I don't have to steal other peoples money as this lady has done from me.  I am ashamed, I am embarrassed and I feel like a failure because I got scammed.  I am not laughing and I am not laughing at anyone else.  This fraud hurt me deeply but it did not devastate me.  I have everything to prove it

I have been asked by Luis Serrano to contact him verbally and right now I am not willing to do that. 

Finally, I have laughed a little instead of crying.  I am not a vindictive person or mean spirited person.  I help people when I can. 

Now for a little humor and this is strictly a "funny" Does anyone on here want to Do a "go fund me account" to help me get my money back that was taken from me in such a conniving and cunning scam!

No, I know I will never get my money back and it is gone.  Although, it hurts I will be OK.  What is most disappointing is my daughter lost out on a cute house and a new beginning, and I lost my trust and self esteem for a bit!  Had it happen to someone else they may not be.  That is why I want these people to get caught.  I can only say I hope God forgives them.

Yes Steve K.  I am the person who is the victim of an elaborate scam and fraud!  I do appreciate all of you commenting on it.  I have been told by the title company that Victoria Lansen represented all all social media that if I say anything about their name they will contact an attorney and sue me for slanderous remarks.  I am out a lot of money (over $10,000) because of this scam and my trust level in people has gone to 0.  Was I naive?   I don't know.  I do know that I checked everything out, I researched everything and I even asked questions.  It is said that their were some liens against the house and that is why Luis said he pulled out (although he put "SOLD, you missed out! " on the house  I asked about Liens and was told their were none, that the owners just owed 2020 taxes.  I was also told by this Victoria Lansen that the property was a gift, the people had moved and they just wanted it sold.  I was also sent via Email a contract to sign with her name and the company email address on it.    She told me an Inspector from Louisiana would do the inspecting.  Should red flags have gone up.  When they did I researched more and questioned more.  I was also sent directions via email to wire the money.  It had an account number, a routing number and it was to Wells Fargo.  SO  I tried to be careful in all of this and the police said it was an excellent scam and they covered their tracks really well.  Now the title company emailed me and said they were investigating it and her profiles would be taken down.  But it is funny because the lady from the title company emailing me said she is the owner/CEO but on one of Victoria Lansen's profiles with BiggerPockets she said she was the owner.  SO now who do I believe.  

The ultimate goal now is to stop this because a lot of people are hurt because of this.  how many more has she scammed because she has her name posted in everystate as a title broker for this company under National Directory of investor Friendly Title Companies.  Every time I find her listed on something and let the one title company know within minutes her profile is moved.  I believe there is more to the story there then what is being told.

I am embarrassed, sad and feel like a loser because this happened to me.  Financially , I lost a lot of money and the title company told me that also.  They also told me to let the authorities handle it. 

Thanks to all , you guys all seem nice and I do appreciate it.  Dewanna brought it out there and I just figured I would clarify a couple of things.

Ok when I say what I am about to say just take it with the humor it is intended.  This is serious and I got hurt really bad, and after a week I am trying to laugh a little. 

The joke-- does anyone want to create a GO FUND ME ACCOUNT for me to get the money back I was scammed out of!

I am just kidding.  All joking aside I hope someone can get to the bottom of this as it is serious and people are being hurt from it.  

Brian, I am the victim of the scam for the property in Kiln MS. I saw the house and inquired about it. A person claiming to be Victoria Lansen was working with me associating herself with a title company in Michigan. She had her name associated with this title company all over the internet. I even checked out to make sure this title company was legitimate. I wanted to buy the home for my daughter. I actually talked to her over the phone the day I viewed the home. Once I viewed the home and she had a guy bring out the Key to open the home saying he was from a title agency locally. He opened the home I inspected it and contacted her saying I would like to purchase the home. I asked all the right questions, checked out everything and she sent me a contract aat which point I signed. Asked me the name of who the dded would be made out to etc , etc. I asked haer about an inspection at whcih point she told me an inspection company from Louisiana would be out to do the inspection. I sent her $5000.00 earnest money (to be refunded if the deal fell through) Then she told me I had to send her the rest of the money before we met to close the home plus money for a warranty deed versus a quit claim deed. I did not want a quit claim deed. I wired the last money on Monday, November 30 (we were to close that Wednesday) . When I contacted her on Tuesday, she informed me that she had never heard of me, that she had never talked to me and that I was delusional and to Piss off. That same day a Luis posted on the internet of the same house which stated SOLD you lost out! I immediateley went to my bank where fraud investigation is being pursued, filed charges with the Harrison County Sheriff's department, the Attorney General's office and the Internet Fraud.gov center, plus my friend called the president of the local REA and he is also looking into the matter. He did tell us that this house has not been on any kind of a market since 2018. I contacted the title people who she associated herself with and they told me if I mentioned them they would sue me for slander, even though she has portrayed her name with the company all over the place. The did tell me they did not know who she was and she had never been affiliated with their company , although she did have her name as owner of that company. I also find it funny that as soon as I find her posting her name with the title company she represented that the profile of her on that site has been taken down.I do find it funny that after she said she did not know me then the house was posted as sold by a Luis. I do have all my emails, all my messages everything about this. Although, I did everything I thought right, I was the victim of an elaborate scam of which (of course) no one takes responsibility for. I am down, but I am not devasted. That money I lost I had been saving, my daughter needed a new start as she is not in a very good place right now, and I feel like a very foolish person. I will not get my money back and I realize that but if we can put enough words out here hopefully they wont devastate someone financially, She has her name affiliated with that title company in everystate under National Director of Investeor Friendly Title Companies. I also sent all this information to that title company and their response was if i slander them they will sue me.So Brian, that is the just of the elaborate scam! By the way the lady that I have been emailing about this claims to be the owner of that title company, as well as Victoria Lansen claimed to be the owner on LinkedIn untl her profile was taken down after I let the title company know,
