Excellent stories ALWAYS include maidens in distress, little old widows and scoundrels who rip off either one. Glad to hear of the outcome, Brooke seems to be well off now. YAY!

So sad that scams are so prevalent that your niece was taken in. Has there been any progress on finding the person responsible?
I know, it is probably futile.
I am glad things have worked out for Brooke, and she is staying with the darling little widow. I hope this hasn't soured her experience on Paris at all.
Veterinary school, how wonderful! Much success to her.
Great post, beautifully written as always.

Bastards. I love how he/she writes about picking her up at the airport to "save her the stress."
Tough lesson to learn. Glad she landed on her feet.

Yes, there are good people as well as bad. It depends on the situation as to which type predominate. Some scams are simple rip-offs, but those like the one that you describe are earth-shattering for the victim.

Despicable! Few things are more aggravating than being duped by scammers / ID thieves. It's such a hopeless feeling...
Glad it's working out (somewhat ,at least)
As they say, it could always be worse (how trite of me!)

I'm glad it all worked out.
When Brooke moves out can I move in?

I'm so glad it worked out for her. I am sickened by these predators on the Web. I wish we could hunt them down like the dogs they are and give them a little rough justice.
