So many times we've seen this scam posted here...so sad to hear someone got sucked in.

It is sad. That scam has been going around forever. I'm sure all of us here must have gotten it once or twice. They don't even bother changing up the picture of the 'father and son'. Goes to show you that it still works. Like fishing. I'm sure out of every 500 providers, he will scam 1 or 2 (who knows...maybe more).

you know what, that is really sad and i am angry for her. i wish all daycare providers knew about that scam. i informed all my daycare provider friends so they were all aware. up until a few months ago, two of them didn't know about it and i am glad i mentioned it.
