    Confirmed: *SCAM Artist Alert*
    **Please take heed of this warning and don't fall into the trap that I fell into.**

    My last post on this matter was a rush to judgement that actually turned out being correct in the end. I got rid of it before but now it is 100% confirmed.

    "Sheralcrow" aka "Marnishia Wilson" aka "Charles Chatman" is a SCAM ARTIST.

    This woman sent me a pm about a FAKE "chemist" by the name of "Charles Chatman" and told me to contact him. The truth is that "Charles Chatman" is "SHERALCROW". This is very easily recognized by the emails I received and other obvious clues. I was too stupid to put two and two together--"sheralcrow" says she's from st louis--"Charles Chatan" lives in St Louis. And they have the same email provider (and not even a popular one like Yahoo or google). I mean if she was going to scam and make up two different people she could have at least used two different email providers and not stated publicly that she was from st louis like "Charles Chatman". I was just desperate.

    So--anyone here please take this warning: If "Sheralcrow" pms you after inquiring about mono and she sends you to an imaginary man named "Charles Chatman" and gives you his email--RUN IN THE OTHER DIRECTION.

    I sent a ridiculous amount of money (STUPID STUPID ME! PLEASE DON'T DO THAT PEOPLE!) to this little girl and she sent me a bottle of COCOA BUTTER in the mail! I paid hundreds of dollars for COCOA BUTTER! She said that she was sending me two containers of mono and she sent me one 100% COCOA BUTTER BOTTLE! She claims that she mixed it in the bottle--which is a LIE and I never asked her (oh sorry--I mean her "chemist" "Charles Chatman") to do that at all!

    I informed this con artist that I wanted to send the product back and get my money back. She said fine. Then when I emailed her again she said "no". Interesting...

    Don't fall for it people! Do NOT trust "sheralcrow" with your money at all. Just don't do it. I take this as a lesson that I have learned--and I will just move on and buy what I need to buy from a RELIABLE SOURCE. I've been through harder times.

    I used a debit card and sent it via western union.

    Thanks for your concern though, folks... just didn't want anyone else to fall for her/his games.

    First, One of the principles of this site is that we keep things public for just this reason. If someone PMs you in answer to a posted question, you should be suspicious.

    Second, If you can forward me proof of your claims (and you can use PMs for that). I will take care of it. If it is as you say, then she will be banned.

    Oh wow.. I feel really bad that happened. I hope she gets banned from using this site and other sites. Next time try to use paypal to send money to a Yahoo email address that way you can get your money back.

    SEE that that's why you have to be careful. She gets her stuff from anil for $200.00 then she doulbles it. To you all so she can make extra money and continue to get her mono supply met how cozy.

    You can tell if you have mono in your lotion cause it smells like wet paint.and it would have crystal particles in it as well.
    Well at least now I can see why she wanted me to shut up on the forum and a lot of you including you vicky was on her side.and that's the thanks you get. Some loyalty.

    How did sherylcrow go from having such a hard time getting mono to having chemist and a supplier allthe sudden hummmmmmm, sounds jacked- up to me.

    Well, gloomy I am on your side and I believe you, but why you don't want to disclose where you got your mono from? Does not make any sense to me! Are you protecting this person who disfigured you? Help all the way if you really mean it, and ruin the business for those who don't have integrity to sell you impure mono and without instructions.

    I saw that sherylcrow was a scam other places on the internet.
    There are several posts on this board as well as the internet on which skin lightening companies are a scam. I think it might be a good idea to put a list together and do a post of all the ones that all scams. I know there are several on this board, one I remember off the top of my head is Herbalinn.
