She never sent me any packages, however she did send me money in my PayPal. Then I was suppose to take 10% and send the rest through MoneyGram to Moscow, Russian Federation.
Doing further research online I have realized this is moneylaudering, highly illegal.
Im just a stay at home mother, who was looking for extra money, I should have known nothing is ever as what it seems.
So please BEWARE, the scammers are definately getting smarter.
