Are you a VICTIM? SURVIVOR? or THRIVER?   How do you move on with your life after the sudden loss of your husband, and then being scammed/taken in an online relationship scam?  Life could end and it has, literally for many victims, with the suicide rate skyrocketing over the last few years.  You could crawl under a rock and hide.  You could isolate and watch Hallmark movies and eat M&Ms or you can STAND UP & SPEAK UP!  Debby Montgomery Johnson did a little of the first two options but then decided to make a difference in the lives of others and this is her story of THRIVING after several of life's curve balls.  April 8, 2010, Louis Montgomery walked out of the house and within 24 hours died of a massive heart attack.  Two years later Debby had suffered a financial blow and a loss of over $1M in an online dating relationship gone BAD (see her story at www.TheWomanBehindTheSmile.com.)  It's been 10 years since the scam reveal and Debby, now a Director of The Society of Citizens Against Relationship Scams (SCARS), is making a PIVOT to speak up for her company, www.BenfoComplete.com, a woman-Veteran owned small vitamin supplement business, providing an alternative solution for those suffering from neuropathy.  "What happened to me, I believe, had a reason and I'm here to help just one woman/man not get scammed (Beware and Be Aware) or recover from the emotional TRAUMA and financial fraud perpetrated by CRIMINALS."  Debby is interviewed by Dr. Tim McGuinness, Founding Director of SCARS.  If you or someone you know is a victim of an online relationship fraud, check out www.RomanceScamsNow.com for additional information and support.  You are NOT alone.
