Walk down memory lane - the scammers and the liars

[pixy0stix]

Brahim Bride/Mike Hunt/Geoffrey the Giraffe - Lives in Boston, has Indian husband who never lets her buy anything and perpetually came home late, kids in extracurriculars. Claimed to have a traumatic birth followed by a hysterectomy and then went Black Friday shopping the next day (the picture is her on the day she should have been in a hospital bed). Lied for years about having a 3rd child until this picture surfaced. Seemingly can't stay away from TN and TB communities.

ETA2: Bombing post simularities -from Boston post - Hi. I'm not a member here, but I dirty lurk and I just need to talk about yesterday. I brought my two kids ages 4 and 8 to the marathon because it was school vacation week. We were on Boylston Street near the street entrance to Lord and Taylor across the street from where the bombs were.

I haven't stopped shaking and I cannot get over the fact that I took my kids to a place where a bomb went off. What if something happened to them. It was awful and we saw some really gruesome things. We also had a LOT of people helping us, including an old friend who has a condo on the Comm. Ave. We just sat there for hours and hours. The kids literally fell asleep on his bed and napped while people were everywhere. I was so upset I couldn't get on the train. I had taken the T from Malden Center and I finally got my car this afternoon; my husband had to pick us up, I couldn't drive.

It was really bad and people didn't know where we were for too long and my girlfriends were freaking out.

Oh, and sorry, I deleted the other thread upon her request. I immediately regretted it.

[stephm0188]

I love you.

So it was made up?

Wasn't she the poster who was at the Boston bombing? Was she there for real?

I'm so confused.

I don't think her husband problems are made up. Just the rest of her whole life.

She lives in Boston, whether or not she was as affected as she says she was... ::shrug::

That poster does live in the area, so it might be likely. She was also in India a few years back when tragedy hit there. Her posts reek of one upping and name dropping. I read her post here today and it seemed like something I had read before - except trade the Chinese husband for Indian. Then I looked at her past posts and her kids' ages matched, her son with a disability, and her mentioning South Asia and Indian weddings, not anything Chinese related. Plus who the fark has weight loss surgery when your husband won't let you upgrade 50 cents for pickles.

Oh yes I think I remember fake Brahmin Bride. there was also a poster once who claimed to have either been at or lost someone in one of the towers on 9/11 that came out as a fake, so I am not surprised that someone would lie about being at the marathon bombing, either.

That was her introductory post..she was at the bombings, yadda yadda yadda.

Don't believe it.

[darthnbjenni]

She has been posting about marital issues for years, though. Perhaps there is some truth in that, and I do feel for anyone going through that stuff - been there, done that. But I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her.

Okay. That is some shady shit if she lied about that.

I was wondering why the dd. I do not understand people making up shit, especially crappy stuff. If I were a faker I would make up some fabulous life.

Yeah when I read her most recent post I wondered about the same thing - the surgery but not fifty cents for pickles. It set off alarm bells along with the frequent posts about the kids' extracurricular activities (seemed really brag-y at times and kind of off).

I tried really hard to remember all her names. My brain froze up, though.

[darthnbjenni]

Internet Explorer? I think that was her, too.

I don't remember which page, but she was not allowed to buy tampons one week after exceeding the grocery bill and instructed to use old rags.

dang...

Oh man. I think I feel sorry of Her. That many AEs?!? And

[cookiemdough]

Who has time to do this kind of stuff?

[iammalcolmx]

Hold on so the girl with access to 400k who was told to sit on rags and not buy tampons was fake? Did someone call her out in the post? Hence the DD?
