It was interesting. This person was really smart about it. Firstly, the scammer had access to multiple accounts and ask for money from everyone including me. Scammer was impersonating a really close friend. I couldn’t confirm if it was him because I lost his phone number. Which was stupid bad luck so I couldn’t confirm it was him or not. Everything clicked and my brain when I tried to send a message to one of his parents. “This is not him” I thought to myself. I text the scammer “good job, how you got access to his account?” Which for a fact I know it scared the living [censored] out of him. Although I give my credits to him he was truly good a replicating someone’s way of talking. Manipulation. Also I’m tech geek so I should’ve realized earlier. After that happen I search up the phone number the scammer gave me. I realized is not a real number but a cloud number. The second one was the let my guard down because it was a local area number. However didn’t realized it was a landline. He made me send the money throw Apple Pay through iMessage. The biggest signed he was a scammer was the iCloud account to text. My will to help a close friend overshadow my logical thinking. 100 dollars weren’t nothing to me so I sent to phone number provided (this is before scammer gives any other information.) I only got a elaborate story. I asked the account the last time we met. The scammer replied with a incorrect date. Last time we texted not met. That basically it. Now I’m down 200 dollars :(

The scammer informed the consumer's relative that she was a physician and she went to school to provide service and the scammer made promises that she had solutions to relieve consumer's from mental/emotional illness. Then she, prescribed treatment from a foreign country and provided instruction to the consumer's parent for consumer to receive medicine. Another relative described her as a healer, but she didn't inform her that she has never been acquainted to know Nicky Love. Mrs. Love's cousin offered to initially pay 350 for the service in cash, without consent and full details of service to the consumer or her parent. Later, Nicky requested additional payment from her cousin, but the consumer found that Mrs. Love has been confirmed a psychic but not a physician. Mrs. Love has been described as atrocious and a fraud in the ripoff report and she caused adverse effects to consumer's physical, mental and emotional health. The evidence of her fraudulent and abusive service began to reveal after consumer reviewed her personal website and the ripoff report reviews, from her family members, past intimate partners and acquaintances. The consumer has been a victim of abuse, which has been severe and foreign to what she has experienced, so she requested a family member to make decision for her care. Following a medical emergency and the service dated on September 27, 2013, the consumer felt a temporary relieve from her migraine. Though, weeks and months later, she suddenly experienced recurring migraines, pain in other physical areas, including lower area, which caused sensitivity and feeling sudden loss of control for urine/menstrual flow and bowel movement and it has worsened over the years. Mrs. Love's website promoted that "she will not cause harm" and she quoted 600 as her standard fee to help individuals with repairing debt and investigating and/or resolving consumers with legal documents or court case. And the same consumer has reported her to law enforcement more than once, but she has never been arrested or charged for her fraudulent and abusive act. And Mrs. Love has been known to travel across the world, including working in California and having music business in New York. She has ability to work remotely and she has even referred her relative or friends to stalk and follow her consumer to see it as entertainment to continue with her abusive practice without consumer's knowledge and/or consent.
