Hey, ya'll. Need some advice here.

 

So I've been talking to this inmate on and off for a about 8 months.. he sent me an email this morning saying he has been offered early parole and will get out on August 1st "if i can get the filing fee for all the paper work and the home placement but if i cant get the money tey are going to tke it from me and im going through alot in my head because i dont got any way to come up with the money and if i dont get it i will halfto do at the least 12 ore months. 
the fees are 75$ total they are two one for the home placement and one for the parole officer.
its 25$ for the home placement and its 50$ for my parole officer."

 

Does this sound reasonable to you all? I might be able to help him if this is a legitimate situation, but I really don't know enough about the way parole works to be certain. Hoping some of you can provide some insight. He generally seems trustworthy, but he is always asking for cash, and I'm just wondering if this is perhaps an extra clever scheme to procure some funds. Thanks for any feedback.

so you wouldn’t want said female to be stopped so she can’t do it again? I’m sure you probably don’t care really about any body else but you, however I do. I believe in female solidarity & helping a sister out. Or brother. That IS grown. The only childish view is yours. You seem to have a problem with anybody who’s warning anybody to keep their money to themselves. You probably running a scam yourself. I have a right to my opinion just like you do. You ought to learn some manners and etiquette. You go ahead and have the last word seems nobody’s opinion on here matters at all. Over and out :)

Oh I’ve never had a female tell me she loves me take my money and cheated on me really?????? Yeah never happened to me ever. Grow up it’s happened to everyone 

 
Justagirllie

You will actually never understand something unless you’ve live through it and being on the receiving end is not nice. You shouldn’t make assumptions about something you actually don’t know shit about. You’re so angry and so mean but imagine if you had lived through it. You’ve not walked in my shoes so your opinions is irrelevant to me. I’m on here to tell this lady or any other guy, don’t end up like me. Don’t send money. Keep it yourself. 

If you’re so unbothered by it then why is your wife STILL on it.

Seriously the Facebook group you joined is probably more interested please feel free to join the rest and talk about how bed inmates are on there most people here really just wanna get on with their own relationship go tell your group. 

 
Justagirllie

Men who lie to women and tell them that they are in a relationship with ONLY them deserve to be told on. I’m not on about pen pals, or guys who are being honest in the system, but men or women who are lying and deceiving multiple people to get  money from them ARE WRONG. They deserve to be blacklisted. SAME as the women lying to multiple inmates that they are the only ones and making them false promises. If you think there is something wrong with that then there is something wrong with you... IMO.

Who are you to black list anyone? 

 
Ariel Jones

Well, I'm the admin of that wonderful group and let me just say that we've saved a lot of people from malicious inmates. And also the other way around btw. Many malicious penpals who play games with inmates. The group works both ways. Most of the slander about my group comes from either blacklisted inmates and their loved ones, or people who got removed for misbehaving, because we do NOT tolerate people bashing each other in there. The only bashing you'll see is towards malicious verified individual, anything else gets removed. But I'm thankful for both sides of the axe tho, the ones that bash me and the group and the ones that support it. Both bring in more people, the haters usually more because people want to know what all the fuz is about.
And my only goal is to expand our reach and save more people from being hurt. My group does nothing malicious to anyone. We expose the bad ones. Anyway, it's flattering when people go out of their way to try and talk down on the group, I assure it's not true. Come look for yourself. Over 2000 people will show you it's the opposite of what people are yelling here. You can't judge until you've seen it for yourself right? And I'm cool on all the hate, it fuels me only more to expose and do right for these people. PEACE! Side note: just dropping this message here and there, I won't be here to argue with the less intelligent. I got better things to do x Oh and the group name is prison love and penpal scams expose and support. The one with 2.7k members

Oh, and this dude who gets so defensive (on the inside is his name or whatever) he's probably one of the blacklisted dudes, why else be so super defensive about this group. Yeah, and I won't waste any second arguing with you either mister. You can do that all alone x

MG65  He phoned her. She wanted to hear his explanation as she has not sent any cash. She was in a ‘relationship’ with him too. Why is that strange? That’s her prerogative. Some people need closure. 

 

 

 

 
Been_on_the_inside

MG65 I know that they can have time added on cause I’ve been in prison, jail, they can have phonetime taken, out in the hole, loss of mail a number of things can be done by the prison also if they need to they can build a case depending on the scale, that’s if it’s done the right way, let me tell you all the real fact of what y’all doing in groups like that Facebook group y’all swap stories, pictures the inmate as no idea what’s going maybe what’s being said is all true maybe it’s just done from spite, I’ve seen a guy beaten so badly in prison cause someone wrote about him online they broke his hip and he will walk with a limp for the rest of his life, you know what the guy did nothing his ex wife was pisssed he had moved on and wanted to get remarried so she wrote stories about him online, so the real fact of posting what a prisoner might of done or might be doing, along with his picture could get that dude beaten, killed, raped, that’s the true fact the rules are different inside so y’all go ahead do what you have to do blacklist them all like animals, be the judge and jury until you see the impact first hand of things like this y’all don’t understand. 

 
MG65

Sorry, I meant "blacklist" metaphorically like deciding to speak to his case manager hah. Strange that the other girl is still talking to him but that's just me. 

 
Justagirllie

MG65 

No I have not spoken to him. The other lady has but I have not. I’ve blocked the prison number straight away. I have told his case manager and the prison I want any mail blocking so he can’t write me. I saw the letters he sent her. It’s all happened today and I will never talk to him again. I did not ‘Black list’ him he was already black listed by the time I got on the group. Other evidence had been seen between more women.

Also Been, how do you know they can get time added for such "scams?" I've read it on here once before but never really understood how it'd come to a conviction. 

 
MG65

Justagirlie, I'm sorry to hear about your situation and I'm sure you're hurting. My heart really does go out to you. Did you ever talk to him about any of this before blacklisting him? Maybe hear his side?

 
Justagirllie

I’m only referring to ‘My’ relationship. I’m saying I’m glad that I found out he was using me for money and I’m glad I’ve got support after the discovery. I never said ‘only dudes in prison’ I’m talking about my man and my personal experience. This man promised me I was the only one. Stop being so mean as to kick a women when she’s down. I was being grown and supporting my man. He’s the one in the wrong not me. The lady I spoke to on HERE He just played with her heart for zero. Just for the hell of it. There’s no excuse for that and I shall not tolerate how I’ve been treated if he’s in or OUT of prison. Y’all have a good day now.

So your calling out dudes that you chose to write to you,  chose to send money too and he find out he as more then one girlfriend, Yeah only dudes in prison do that I forget,  take responsibility for your own choices. What they do is wrong but seriously take responsibility and grow up also. 

 
Justagirllie

The Lady I emailed On here said that all the evidence is shared by Direct Message because most of the females feel unsafe. Some of the men are in gangs etc. They blacklist people from the outside who have multiple prison relationships too. I’ve seen the blacklist. I’ve only addded the group today and I’ve not seen anything untoward from their side yet. I am Genuinely grateful that there is a group at all. It’s pointed me in the direction of  prison talk dot com and on there they talk of ‘the long con’ I wished I’d have known this before. 

 
Been_on_the_inside

So sick of people here and Facebook groups thinking it’s ok to target people in prison y’all think you have it bad if I did that to people on here y’all would soon jump on me and tell me how I can’t speak to people like that, yet y’all happy to do it to people inside without them defending themselfs where on any of the Facebook groups can they go on and say yo! Hold up that’s not who I am? Or what I’m about? Why is it ok to do that to inmates? The only people I see being targeted on here is them! Y’all happy to speak out about them but what about the people on here who do the same?

Actually " been on the inside" Damias group is a genuine help. Its amazing how many women are being coerced to fund the inmates by being promised live and fidelity and this FB group outs them. But no ones asking or inviting you anyway so butt out, it involves or concerns you in NO way.

 
Been_on_the_inside

ok, guys so I got my wife to check out the link posted to the facebook group above by a well-known scammer on this site and it turns out it's not there to help. so it said that it only post things they know to be true and have evidence  of  but all they do is post pictures of their boyfriends or penpals and ask who else is writing to them so be careful of this group from what I can tell its just people that don't trust who they are writing too and want to want to justify there own insecurity. that's all the site is a bunch of pictures of prisoners that have no evidence of being con artist or scammers but are being dragged all over facebook anyway,   

 
Justagirllie

yes I understand. I’m just so grateful to it being posted on here or I’d have not known. I know not everyone is like that. The lady I emailed said they don’t post anybody on the group with out factual evidence. Emails from the inmate or letters. I just wish there was something like that on here where you could name names. This has devastated me

 
Been_on_the_inside

its the best thing to do justagirlie I'm not justifying what they are doing I'm just saying there is a right way to stop them I'm sorry this has happened to you from someone who has spent a lot of time inside we are not all like that I promise you. just like people who do it on the outside they can face extra time for what they are doing I'm  not saying don't make a stand I'm just saying do it in the right way to help everyone  

 
Justagirllie

I have notified the prison too been_on_the_inside

So he can be blocked from writing me anymore. I have explained everything to his case manager 

 
MG65

Yes! A lot of people will throw out emails to get info. Be careful on the internet. 

 
Justagirllie

I just want to say if it wasn’t for this thread then I’d still be none the wiser. I’ve been able to email the lady and we have swapped screen grabs of letters where we have been both played by this man. If you are having a relationship then more than likely you’ll send money. The lady I spoke to had not sent any money but I had. She was getting played with her heart and I was getting played for my cash and my heart. I’ve joined the FB group. There is nothing to help vulnerable people on this forum and there should be. I’m grateful to you this for happening. I thought I was loved and I was the only one. Turns out there’s about 6 of us. Smh 

 
Been_on_the_inside

well said MG65 you don't have to do anything you don't wanna do. If the dudes are scamming y'all what is naming names or facebook groups gonna do?  report them to the prison with any evidence you have that's the only way you're going to stop them the prison can stop them getting letters look at their books to see the activity of money coming if your gonna do it please do it the right way. we have a lot of fake people here that will tell you to join groups etc etc in order to gain more information about who you or your inmate is and use it for their own advantage, (she knows who she is) so look out for them also. contact the prison service is the only for sure way it's going to stop all doing it on here or facebook is gonna do is add more shit.

 
Rins

I know him too Laura. I emailed you :)

 
MG65

He wanted things and you willingly sent him money. You could've said no but now you're crying about it. Wtf?

icebaby i know him email laurawestern8 [at] gmail.comrel="nofollow" i know him well.

I was just about to say the same thing. Prisoners cannot be mentioned individually by name in this manner, even if they have done something wrong, because they're not able to defend themselves. It's not fair to them, we have every means to discuss them but they don't have any means to refute or counter any of what's being said.

 
Icebaby

How can I delete a post? I did not knew it’s against the rules. Or could just a admin delete the names ?

Who as the right to label anyone as a scammer? Why cause they are in prison? Why don’t you guys write a list of people that have fucked y’all over in the outside?  Cause that happens? If those guys are scamming you it’s wrong, but walk away have nothing to do with him, it’s against the rules to mention prisoners names here, 

 
Septimus W. Smith

I suppose it's useless to remind you that it's forbidden to mention names of prisoners in the forum, regardless of the subject that is being discussed.

Anyway... What also seems very inappropriate is to put a topic inside another, being able to open another post as "Beware of Mr. Jones" or something like that.

Been_on_the_inside

@thesekeys ok so what he told you very well could be true in some states the information he gave you is true you do have to pay a fee but........... this does not mean he’s being honest he could just have this information. The price of the fee ranges from state to state and it doesn’t apply to everyone. Best thing to do is check all details yourself if you wanna help and your unsure ask him for the details and make payments direct and not to him. But never let anyone bully you always go with your gut, don’t feel guilty or be made to feel guilty if you don’t want to or can’t help, good luck

Oh jesus, looks like theres a whole gang of us! Could ajaj1919 or kam26 or sunshinelady1 please leave an email so I can get in touch? It looks like I'm going to need this info also.

 
ShadeyBiz89

That sounds like bullshit to me. With stuff like this I refuse to sugarcoat it. If by chance it's true (which is highly unlikely), it's still not up to you to fund his requirements.

Don't send it. Don't send him anything, not just 75, don't send him anything. If he's always asking for money, that's a hint of how he feels about you, as Galapagos covered rather succinctly. I'd find someone else to write to if this was me (it's not, just my opinion).

 
Kirsten

Don't do it.

One of my pps is going to be released on parole very soon (starting to count the days), but he never has asked me for anything like this. Now, I do not know what state the guy's in and if those things like parole fees are being handled differently in different states.

But to me this is a big no-no.

Take care of yourself - and your wallet. ;)

 
GalapagosDiver2

"he is always asking for cash"

Is this really a friendship you want to keep? This person seems to be using you, or at the very least, views you as an easy way to make money.

As everyone else here has said - don't send the money.

If this inmate can't figure out these things for themselves, then they're not ready for this early release.  The real world is going to be a lot more challenging and they need to start developing those survival skills now.

 
Anonymous

You’re his pen pal not his ATM. You’re being used. Do NOT send the money.

 
Anne marie HH

Fuck nooo don t send it. Thats a great scam..but thats all it is..a scam
