why don't you get in contact with the bank yourself and ask how such a thing could occur... then you'll find out whether the funds were wired out by a hacker, or whether the funds were withdrawn by your girlfriend en cualquier lugar.

Sorry man, you've been duped. Next time give the $1,200 to me, I'll go on vacation for 1 1/2 weeks and then give you $600 back.

OK, sorry to sound like a dick, but forget the hacker thing and DON'T EVEN THINK OF SENDING MORE MONEY TO HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is life, she stole money from you.......dont even bother to contact the bank.....do the best thing you can possibly do, dont pick up her calls, get on with your life and have the ultimate revenge and be happy with someone else. Better to find out she is a useless, lying cow now, than to find out 5 months after youve married her. $1200 is a cheap way to find out what could have been an expensive lesson. Bad luck my friend, could have happened to any of us on here.
I also reiterate, the money didnt get stolen, she spent it.....dont even believe for one second it was stolen, that isnt true.

Another Good Reason NOT to leave money In with Someone (woman in Colombia)when you aren't there to control the purse strings or if you don't know her real real well. This goes for sending Money also. Amazing with all the stories where American Guys send Money to Col Women and then get taken for a Ride or dumped yet they continue to fall for the sob stories(my mom is sick and needs a nurse- lol) and get taken in spite of all the posts here where guys lost their $$. This is Big Big Mistake and you almost always lose in the end. Sorry to hear of your bad luck. Better to find out she is a Crook sooner then later. My Buddy brought a Caleña to his Home 8 years here in Florida and she also cleaned him out of his Gold Jewelry and other Gold Collectables he had displayed in the house. The Gold Jewelry she swiped was hid in an overhead Ceiling AC Duct in his Den(before she came) so she was a real pro. He lost over $7000-$10000(1999 gold market prices) to her, more by today's High Gold Prices. He also had some some cheap gold plated items in the same Hidden Box where he had the 18K items but she being the consumate pro she was, left the cheap fools gold items, LOL She knew the Difference, I'll give her that! She worked fast to find the Items in the place where he stashed them! SHe was a Hacker also! LOL

As others here have mentioned, The Bank in 99.9% probability was not involved, she was the prime mover, err Hacker, LOL.

Let's leave this guy alone and let him live in his fantasy world.... Maybe having money stolen by a hacker from a bank account in Colombia is a tax write off! LOL

Seriously, he needs to use this as a learning experience, especially if he plans on spending more time in Colombia. If he truly believes that it was a hacker and not his GF, then maybe he isn't savvy enough to be a world traveler.

Hey Tinto I'm sure there is the Colombian version of the blues. But I don't think too many Colombian dudes will be writing songs about $1200 USD or CAD lost over a woman's scam. Gringos have the market on that one!!!! Gotta love CAPITALISM!!!!

give him a break guys........he may have been in love with her ( he clearly was) and he made a bad mistake. Sure, now he cant dare believe her bullshite but hes just wanting to believe she isnt lying when it is clear to all us she is. Ok, i havent read the other thread but cant believe he actually believes her unless he is a total deluded.

Shit Happens.. Damn.. Seeing somebody in Medellin but she doesn't ask for money that much..Last time was I was there she was alittle short for the Playstation 2 for her daughter on Christmas.. So I paid half and she paid half..She was about to ask for some help with some University Books but she did good last week selling clothes so she called me she made enough money at work to pay off her books at the University.
Being careful after hearing many stories. I take Case by Case situation. I would never call again though if she told me that story..Holy Shit I can't believe she thought that stupid lie would work. It would of been better just to say hey I used your money to go on vacation..I will try to get it back..1200 CAD is not that much so he learned early could of been a few thousand US Dollars.. She is not that smart she went after little bait and didn't go after the big bait which the smart ones have patience for that like MiamiMike explained. If you do have any relationship Colombia, Canada or United States they all cost money in some way.. Hey four dates here in Miami I would of been at 1200 CAD easy..with these Miami girls..South Beach Date 200 for Dinner and 200 for bottle at a Club..or vice versa alittle cheaper lets say you can get the date for 150.00 Dinner and Dancing..Still alot of money..

I still don't judge Colombian Woman because of these stories because I seen worse here Miami with Gringas...

BxUnika says on Jan 23, 2007, 19:00:

Por Que No Estoy Sorprendida... I am just curious as to a few things:
1) I assume you met her on the internet, right?
2) How long did you "know" her before you gave her that money?
3) WHY did you give her that much money? Damn, I know married couples who have been together for 10 years who would not just drop $1,000+ on the other like that...

See, this goes back to the whole "grass is greener on the other side". Save for the girls on Jerry Springer, I have never in my life known a guy who would give his girlfriend that much money so soon just like that. Do some of you here feel sorry for these women because they live in Colombia? Now, I know the vast majority of the guys who are dropping big bucks on these Colombian women would not dream of giving that kind of money to an American or Canadian woman *just like that*.

What goes on in the heads of these men? They are so desperate or have such low self-worth that they will literally travel to a different continent, learn another language, and drop thousands of dollars just to receive some affection? No, no, no. Sorry, but people are people no matter where you go and Colombia is no different.

I think most guys, are just buying "S". I say how can you really know a person in the internet???. You guys go to Colombia and buy a wife after just weeks of meeting them? then you act surprised because she takes off with other guy that takes her dancing, speaks her language and does the things that she was used to in Colombia, and you don't,'cose you are from a VERY different culture, and education level. Marriage is a difficult thing. I guess you get a "p" if you pay for her. Wake up guys.

Lets to get to the Point First there has to be something else behind this..I would not post on PBH.I've been reading all the topics on this website,but never see anything about this (makes me worried)
I would like to know if this is possible or not that somebody can go in your account that easily
The anwser is no and if so the bank will have a report filed with the proper authorities and your GF will have a copy.. Within a few weeks once they justify this was bank fraud they will refund the account. Come on lets have some common sense here. What did you expect in comments from our smart PBH members.. Listen and learn that your GF is already lying to you.. So end it unless she can provide you with the police report or fraud report..and if so the bank will be refunding you the funds..I would not even post this situation because I would be embarrassed but this could happen.. We get caught up with a girl and sometimes shit happens. What you get out of this is that you learned early SHE DOES NOT RESPECT YOU AND THINKS YOUR STUPID. If I were you dump her and there are 10 more girls waiting in line and find one that respects you for who you are..and don't transfer funds. Personally I am in Medellin every three weeks seeing a girl and actually we are getting along..We are both broke and crazy...so I guess no damage can be done with money. LOLOLOLOLOILOL
