We were just scammed. We FaceTimed with the mom, she sent us ultrasounds etc. I called an adoption attorney to start the process and she said that this mom has scammed 3 other agencies or families. We never gave her money thankfully but our hearts are broken.I know there are bad people in the world. It seems so cruel to do this to people whose biggest desire is to have a child.
