Really interesting story...I honestly didn't come here intending to criticise or to attempt to debunk your story in any way.
But I noticed something, maybe someone has already picked up on this since I didn't read all of the responses - you say you've lived in that apartment
for 4 years...yet you leave your keys in the exact same place and have done for 7 years?
I'm sure there might be a rational explanation for that discrepency, I'm not calling you out or calling you insincere and hope it doesn't come across
like that. But I'd appreciate some clarity on that.
With regards to dropping items that seem to vanish - I can testify to that for sure, it happens to me constantly.
Most of the time the item turns up relatively close to the place it disappeared..but on a few occasions I've found said items in the most bizarre
places, often it's as if they've been left there deliberately...sort of put on display in obvious places, places you know you checked, etc.
Pretty weird...I enjoyed your story, if anything it's unique.
If true I don't see how it could be a scam...can someone explain how someone using someone elses address...can benefit the alleged scammer?
I mean...I could probably trick loads of people into going to some randoms door, pretending it's my house - how would I benefit from it, though?
Ok, I might be pretending to be eldrely and infirm, begging and receiving charitable donations from kind strangers...here's the thing- how am I
receiving the money from these generous people?
Via paypal or online banking, I'd assume - therefore, why would I need to give those people an address and have them swing by to collect? If I can
receive funds online I should be able to pay them, no?
They can't be sending cash - because the OP would have been receiving random envelopes addressed to Tara with cash in them...
I'm not saying it isn't or can't be a scam...but I ain't no scammer so can someone enlighten me as to why or how such a scheme would benefit
anyone?
ETA - do beg your pardon, I misread the OP due to my inability to deny ignorance - you quite clearly stated that you have been in your apartment for 7
years.
I'm an idiot. I've read all the responses now so I reckon a flag is deserved...I hopwe you continue to contribute to and update this thread, quite
fascinating.
