I have created this BLOG not for any discussion, but just to warn people out there about a set of INTERNET FRAUDS who scammed me out of US $500.
Please BEWARE of a group of internet fraudsters who operate a WordPress blog called Barbados Free Press.
It’s all a BIG SCAM.
The person(s) behind it post a barrage of false reports about the lack of press freedom in Barbados and how the government there has been oppressing and harassing them. They complain about how the lives of their families are being threatened and how they have to hide for fear of being attacked. It’s all a BIG HOAX. None of it is true. It’s ALL LIES!!!
The fraud part comes in when they contact unsuspecting people (like me) asking for “donations to help in the fight for press freedom and freedom of speech”. Once they get your email address, they will start to send you messages about how few volunteers they have and how much work it is to get the message out to people in Barbados. They convinced me to donate some money to them, but after checking some of what they posted on their blog against what was reported in the online newspapers in Barbados, I realized that it was all just another type of 419 internet fraud. My suspicions grew shortly after I wired the money to them as instructed, because it was sent to a bank account in Canada. Who knows how much money they have already collected through this scam.
Please don’t be fooled by those shameless crooks, liars and frauds. Barbados is a beautiful country with lots of genuine, friendly, hardworking people. But these FRAUDS at Barbados Free Press deserve to be thrown into jail for ripping off unsuspecting innocent people. When I try to make complaints about it on their blog, they either block me or delete the comments immediately, so I was forced to create my own blog to warn others. Chances are the person(s) behind it may not even be living in Barbados. They use the names Marcus, Shona, George, Cliverton, Robert & Auntie Moses, but I’m pretty sure that those names are all FAKE and I strongly suspect it’s only one person using all those names.
I can’t believe I lost $500 of my hard-earned money by trusting those crooks.
