The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.

Jennifer Robinson AKA Jennifer Beck, Jennifer Wall and Givenright.com will scam you out of money. She runs/owners an internet adoption research site. She prays on those whom are looking for birth parents or children given up for adoption.

To hire her it cost $200.00 + dollars. She will tell you how many people she has located and make you believe that she is able to find who you are looking for. Within 24-48 hours she calls you and tells you she has great news she has located them and has already made contact. She goes on and on about how the person you are looking for really wants contact but first you have to pay another $200+ dollars before she can give you any information. You get so excited so you pay...

She will then call you back telling you that birth mom/ adoptee called her back and wants NO contact and yelled and screamed at her and said they would sue... the lies go on and on! She will give you a name but the name is made up... I was told that my birth mother's name was sarah but after contacting another search group find out that my birth mother's name is really Julie. She lies! Don't use her! My birth mother was never contacted by her and was VERY happy to have contact!

Save yourself the tears! Because it hurt really bad to hear my birthmother wanted nothing to do with me and then find out she really did!

I have a listed of people right now who have been scammed by her... Stay away!

I am happy with what Jennifer did for me, but I am not happy with the way others were treated, and I have first-hand knowledge of the situation. Initially, I only apologized for my own actions, but I have no intentions of taking credit for the actions of another. Since then, I have personally been lied about, defamed, slandered, and libeled, but I felt that if I did not come forward with the truth, karma would not be on my side.

Alicia,

Get a job! Opps you probably do not have one because you are a two bit hoe and all the lies you tell about people. You are the crap on my shoes. You are the mold that grows from the bottom of your dirty as* house, [censored] you are so fat that you are so fat when you step on the scale it says, "No live stock please." When your daughter’s IQ reaches 50, she should sell oh, you bet her too it, you are a two it lier! Anyone who told you to be yourself couldn’t have given you worse advice, being that you have a active child welfare case against you. Hoe, you could never be me and he will never love you like he loves me that is why he has threated to live your lieing self, this bitc* does not have morals Marie you do not even know who you have associated yourself with, you think this Jennifer women is the devil well, you have not met Alicia and her scamming lieing butt, she probably set up some of those searches and took all the money! After all the [censored] went to Mexico for the lap band so she had to be making some doe when she worked for that lady. Do not let Alicia fool you check out all the child abuse statement she has opened on her through child welfare in her life time, you only want to talk about the [censored]es morals you might think she has some but, she is just trying to fool you!
Go ahead, tell them everything you know Alicia, It’ll only take 10 seconds for people to figure you out, but, do as you always do and lie to make people think your something your not! You women have welcome as a rattlesnake at a square dance when you believe Alicia. What is your last name anyway you have had so many ex's it would take a mathematicians to count them all. Calling you stupid would be an insult to stupid people.. All you have time for is to write crap about this lady, when you should be watching your children, oh, I forget that is something you have never done well. Diarrhea of the mouth; constipation of the ideas and you have the runs [censored]. All you do is lie, and I do not mean just in bed with men. Hay, you women want to know where Alicia met her husband online chatting with different men, so, it is no suprize she is familiar with your gossip rag, she is use to telling people all types of things.Don’t get insulted, but is your job devoted to spreading ignorance? Oh, I forget you do not work, that is why you have so much time to write so much b.s. Don’t thank me for insulting you. It was my pleasure, Since you have so much time on your hands to insult other people. Don’t you love nature, despite what it did to you? Pure uglyness! You have first hand knowledge of your first hand bull crap that is all the knowledge you have. Devote your time to writing you are good at that it seems that is all you have time for and the only thing you are good at. Watch for the company you keep women because this women is better then a soap opera digest, gossip and lies, back stabbing and drama, slander and libel is what she is writing if you know what you reading you will see she is the only one doing these things, she has a black heart if she even has one!

OMG LMAO! I don't know who you are but you sure did show yourself! What does any of the above comment have to do with the fact that Jennifer scammed me and others? NOTHING! Alicia was long gone before Jennifer scammed me and a few others also had NO DEALINGS with Alicia. So why are people still blaming her? And why is she not supposed to defend herself and do the right thing here? Why? If I were being blamed for something I didn't do, I would defend myself too. At least she's trying to help. Where is Jennifer? Hiding under a rock right now because she can't face any of us. She KNOWS she scammed us so she pretends to be other people to write things. She doesn't return emails or phone calls. I know for a fact that Alicia will speak with anyone who feels that she had anything to do with Jennifer's scam. I know for a fact that she has apologized to a few victims for what they have gone through. I know for a fact that she has compiled a list of search angles to give to victims to try to help them. And what has Jennifer done? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! So, whoever you are "knowing your junk"... All you have managed to do here is show your true colors and the type of person you are that has to resort to that name calling, digging up dirt stuff because you don't have any other recourse. I truly don't believe anyone will think anything about it except give them a good laugh, like it did me.

Alicia,
Know I am not Jennifer because if I was I would take your sorry as to the cleaners but, as they say you can not get blood out of a stone. I knew you would be guarding your post because you sit by the computer just waiting to reply to this crap. I think that is the funnest thing of all (bored yet) I have just started so guard yourself well! You should be watching your four children or our their four different daddy's watching them, class oh, you have that! You using degrading, insulting, humiliating, or embarrassing put-downs against others maybe you should have alittle sent your f*cking way. You are a dog and people that lie with you can only be one of your pack, hope they do not get caged in by your lies. Thank you for the dedication to this board, I am sure Jennifer likes the tribute to a very long friendship that has endured many phases of personal and professional growth by you. Someone needs to drop-kick you fat butt across a field but, it would take a army of 1000 men to pick your fat as* up! Don't you realize that there are enough people to hate in the world already without your working so hard to give us another? Your time writing crap could be spent on smashing all the roaches in your home instead of lieing about others, oh, I remember the welfare provided you with spray to kill them, that you used to kill your brain cells. Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but you abused the privilege for too long so, now, turn around is fair play. So, Cancel my subscriptions [censored]... because I'm tired of your issues, lies, defamed, slandered, and libeled, but I felt that if I did not come forward with the truth about you now, karma would not be on my side and it can be just like you a [censored]! Remember JESUS loves you but everyone else thinks you're an idiot and if people fall for your saint act they are the stupid ones. Hey- I am going away from my computer but in the meantime, why don't you go play in traffic? your good at lieing and trying to dodge things if that is how you live great but, one day Karma will be the best thing for you! I can sit right here as long as you can and write crap as long as you can! Enjoy writing you back! I know your fat a** is waiting to write back as you sit on here 24/7 waiting for the oppertunity to write!

Marie,

My beef is not with you it is the troll Alicia that is writing on here, I have had dealing with the lady of the castle and believe me she acts as she is innocent which is very deceptiveShe fooled you look she owns your website she is all over it and that crap is way funnier then my post. You can be fooled but, you have no idea what this crazy [censored] is all about. If she can get her foot in the door somewhere she will come right in and you will have no idea who you let in. I have no dirt on her everything I know I am back up and believe me I have done my home work. I've seen people like her, but I had to pay admission now, I enjoy this because I am seeing her drama for free! I give it a "perfect 10" for drama. She can keep typeing, someday she'll write something intelligent! Alicia, Osama bin Laden is calling you he needs you to come back to him, yet, he knows you have moved caves. You think Jennifer is different people writing, I doubt it, Alicia did all her work remember! She has more faces than Mount Rushmore and using them to her advantange. Alicia, wants to play her games so, as she has her pack of puppies, Are homies will fight back. I would not give her the oppertunity to pee on my house if it was on fire, she has done enough damage to me.

Marie,

Anyone can look up a list of search angels from the net and tell them something they want to hear, the fact of the matter is you did not deal with the hornets nest last year I did! I do not believe any things she says and I will never, Sorry are only words and she has a lot of time to write many words.

Jennifer, you honestly don't think we know you are doing this? COME ON... all of your emails have LIAR spelled lier, all of your comments refer to "butt" and "crap" and "###". None of us think Alicia was innocent, nor does anyone give two cents about what she has or has not done in the past. Can we please stick to what is relevant here, you explaining why you knowingly took our money and lied to us, or just stopped all communication leaving us to beg for the answers we paid you to find. Can you please stop pretending to be Nikki, or a neighbor, or whoever you want us to think this latest alter ego is? You can have 35 people come on here and sing your praises, it doesn't change the fact that you don't finish the jobs you don't want to, you rip people off and hide behind your disclaimer instead of just admitting you don't have the answers and refunding the second payments to those of us you lied to.

Now that we all know Alicia is a 700lb troll from a roach infested ghetto she lives in with her 33 kids and 21 lovers, and 14 husbands, let's get down to what matters... you explaining or even acknowledging there are a lot of people you have hurt. Thanks.

p.s. I am not trying to be critical but could you please have one of your kids or a friend proof read what you write, it's nearly impossible to translate in to english. Not being mean, I know you have claimed dislexia, I'm just offering a solution so we understand you better.

Wow this is way out of hand! But as usual it is off subject. Nevertheless, it is interesting to see the reoccurring typos in the unrelated posts. Those posts and typos have begun to make me sway in my thoughts. Then again, that could be why someone is posting them. What a mess.

Listen sock puppet I am not Jennifer nor do I claim to be someone I am not, I am not using my identity, for this roach infested [censored] a*s! So, she can try and call my name in her lines of glory. Go pick up some more brillo pads for your crack, and get over it. Alicia, you are the lune in cartoon. I am pretending to be anyone except myself. I do not know sock puppet why you keep referring to me as someone else. TROLL!

I will get down to the matter you are twisted, I am writing to you "Troll"! I have not had dealings with these other people only you. I never stated you had 33 kids and 21 lovers, and 14 husbands, because first of all from your photo your troll a*s is to ugly to get 21 lovers and no other men are stupid enough to marry you. As for 33 kids I would believe it, but, you should try Ripley's Believe It Or Not!
If you can read you know what I am writing!

Troll, I cry everyday! The whole board makes fun of me. Everyday! Since, they had the satisfaction of tormenting me on here I have Bulimic Disorder, Extreme Multiple Phobias, Clinical Depression, Bipolar Disease, Dislexia- sock puppet please! Read english much. “Another piece of [censored] crawls out of the roach infested woodwork "peterpanfan" nice that you join us, the sock puppets and their leader the Troll. “I guess it's acceptable to be a lying sack of [censored] Troll."

After reading your B.S., I’ve decided that I believe the anti-christ has made it to pages of this board and her name is Troll! yet, she might not be smart enough she's a few fries short of a Happy Meal.

Curious...why does this "Peter Pan" person claim to not be Jennifer, yet makes statements such as,

"...she has done enough damage to me." and;

"...I'm tired of your issues, lies, defamed, slandered, and libeled, ..." and;

"...you did not deal with the hornets nest last year I did! I do not believe any things she says and I will never, ..."

I find it very funny that we are all using our real identities yet "peter pan" is not! What do YOU have to hide... Jennifer? And what's with this?...

"The whole board makes fun of me. Everyday! Since, they had the satisfaction of tormenting me on here I have Bulimic Disorder, Extreme Multiple Phobias, Clinical Depression, Bipolar Disease, Dislexia- "

Are they not the same "issues" Jennifer claims to have? Am I missing something here?

And did y'all catch this:

"Hoe, you could never be me "

Hmmmm... Same typos, referring to herself the same way Jennifer does... Yea, I agree, It's Jennifer! LOL. Its such a shame that she can't show herself AS herself and she has to hide behind fake names and false identities to bash people.

We all use our REAL identities, Jennifer... why don't you? Are you afraid of what we will say to you because you KNOW that you have emotionally destroyed many of us? You can try to bash Alicia all you want... we know YOU ARE THE ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR SCAMMING US! Noone gives a dam about Alicia's personal life, how she met her husband, or what she does with her kids... or your personal life for that matter. What we care about is getting the answers for the hurt and the pain that you caused us. And we WILL NOT go away! Keep trying, Jennifer, cause this woman isn't going anywhere!

Who IS that idiot? One guess is that it could be that Stephanie Cruz chick that "claims" to have bought givenright from Jennifer. I had an, oh so entertaining, email exchange with that person. I'm guessing that I may be correct given the childish and crude tone in her posts. You would think that Jennifer could dig up a half way educated person to post on her behalf, but then again, birds of a feather...

Oh and if you are soooooooo inclined to insult Alicia, why don't you start your own thread. On this thread, Alicia is someone who gave a great deal of insight in to the piece of white trash that we were dealing with, the person whom we trusted with money, information, livelihood(for some). Take your insults elsewhere, or are you simply out of sympathetic ears. I can assure you, you will find nothing of the sort here. This is for us to share our stories about how YOU screwed us over, not to insult. Well not to insult anyone BUT you LOL...okay okay everyone, I will behave.

I thought this web page as about searching and helping others. Every person given up for adoption or birth parents should be able to find each other. Many of you have been reunited by Jennifer and some of you feel that Jennifer did not do a good job on your search and feel hurt. This web page has many insults both ways from both sides, Please, Keep It Clean and professional.

I have read these comments and I cannot even imagine that Jennifer wrote those statements. Jennifer has always stated to me that she will never respond to this type of bashing, I fully applaud this decision. There are too many transplant people on the site trying to earn cool points by being "snarky" rather than honest.

I view this "rival bashing" as lose/lose situation. I will defend the person you are bashing because I think highly of Jennifer, and find even more things to appreciate about her that she does not respond to your comments. Or perhaps that you people will go by the wayside, to make someone look even worse then they really might be. It is outlandish what has been stated about Alicia, Jennifer and others when they have stated how they feel about the subject. Either way, I am left with an uneasy feeling in my stomach and a kind of "ewww" response from your child hood behaviors.

Life is to short to hurt others and call a person the AntiChrist is completely wrong, but I don't recommend this tactic. If you truly believe you are the "IN THE RIGHT" then state your comments with out bashing each other, when you don't need to insult the other person in life or try to make them feel less then a person. We all have our own views on this matter, some of us back Jennifer and some do not think highly of her. Let's keep it to the facts.

I do not think it is right to make a statement that Jennifer made these comments without the knowledge that she did in fact write such nonscense. How about with your inability to know whether it is written by 'he/she'. ... please, note that anyone could write such nonscense, and these comments could in fact link to anyone of you mentioned to make one other look badly in another person's eyes ... but, I wrote this entry not to bash anyone, yet, to plainly ask that if you have no facts proven then do not blame another. Also, please, keep this forum to the facts scammed vs reunited ! ... You seem to imply that incorrect grammer is a form of knowledge. ... and it is not.

Please keep this forum clean and real!

Yes, lets stick to the facts, shall we?

FACT: Alicia was not working for Jennifer Robinson when Jennifer scammed me (and a few others).

FACT: The Better business bureau rates Givenright an F

FACT: Jennifer Robinson REFUSES to answer ANY of our questions regarding our searches and avoids us completely. She will not respond to emails or phone calls.

FACT: In ALL of our victim cases, Jennifer Robinson made up LIES and FABRICATED STORIES to get our money including, but not limited to, "your birth mother doesn't want to meet you", "your son doesn't want anything to do with you, " and thats after stating that she was 100% sure it was the correct person because she spoke with the person directly (FYI- some of those FOUND their birth parents and not only is it NOT the same person Jennifer named, they DID want contact).

FACT: There are over 20 victims of Jennifer's scam found so far since GivenRightVictims website was created.

FACT: Jennifer Robinson is operating WITHOUT business license.

FACT: Jennifer prefers to use many of the same excuses when scamming people... "I'm very sick" "my daughter is very ill" "Comcast is down" "my friend died" "my neighbor needed my help" "I lost the phone number for your birth mom" and many, many others!

FACT: There are very many words that spell check will not pick up that Jennifer seems to use frequently. i.e. ARE instead of OUR. Us Victims have many emails reflecting this fact so when we see posts using the EXACT SAME wording (more than just the example above), we believe it's Jennifer because she doesn't have the guts to face us directly without hiding behind a fictitious screen name.

FACT: JENNIFER ROBINSON IS A FRAUD and will fraud anyone when she needs the money.

Is that enough facts for ya or should I go on? Cause believe me, I have LOTS OF FACTS to prove our case!

I will NOT go away, I will NOT quit, and I will NOT be silent! This fraud has GOT TO STOP and I'll do anything and everything in my power to make sure it does! Adoptees and Birth Parents do not deserve the heartache and emotional distress that dealings with Jennifer Robinson will bring!

I will not go away either and I back Jennifer one hundred percent! She is a wonderful searcher, a great friend, a wonderful researcher, a great person. Let me let you in on something.

Fact:You do not need a business license to do adoption searches anywhere in the United States except for Florida.

Fact: I have asked for assistance in many of my cases and Jennifer has helped solve them perfectly.

Fact: Jennifer has helped solve many of thousands of adoption cases.

Fact: The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet, Sharon Osburne when she had her show, Vh-1 and others have used Jennifer's services with no problems and have been very satisfied with Jennifer's services.

Fact: You can not prove many of the statements on your website it is one sided and you only have the opinions that you want to post.

Fact: MANY PEOPLE have stated great things about Jennifer and Givenright yet, you erase them off your website.

Fact: Your website states Jennifer started out at Txcare, yet, she has never even been a member, neither have I (your website has many false facts and fabrications)

Fact: Jennifer did not respond to the BBB. BBB is just a non profit organization tasked with upholding "truth in advertising." It is not a government agency, and has no legal mandate to go after companies when people complain to them.

In fact BBB -- like other non profits -- is aggressive in raising funds by calling companies (the very same companies that people report) and asking them to be a member for $300+ a year and for the right to put their logo on their websites.

BBB has no legal teeth. All that will happen is the negative report will be on the website of BBB with a note that they tried to contact the company but the company never responded

Think of BBB only as a guide, nothing more and nothing less.

Fact: You DO NOT know Jennifer wrote those comments and to state she did is outrageous and shows ones ignorance. First, of all anyone can use bad grammar and misspelled words.

Fact: You state "we believe it's Jennifer because she doesn't have the guts to face us directly without hiding behind a fictitious screen name", Then you state "Jennifer Robinson REFUSES to answer ANY of our questions regarding our searches and avoids us completely. She will not respond to emails or phone calls So which one is it, Marie? I am sure she has her phone bill and can prove who has called and who has not called her.

Fact: You have stated on your website that Jennifer is doing business out of her home, Fact: Adoption Searchers all work out of their homes except for two of them that I know. Also, they all have personal number's not business lines. It is a Work-at-Home Job for the most part.

Fact: You state Jennifer uses these lines "I'm very sick" "my daughter is very ill" "Comcast is down" "my friend died" "my neighbor needed my help" "I lost the phone number for your birth mom" and many, many others!
Fact: People get sick and if you really knew anything about Jennifer Robinson you would know she has a terminal illness called Sarcoidosis so, I am sure she gets really sick sometimes. Do you research on the Sarcoidosis Awareness Network. Also, put in the words comcast is down and you will see it always goes down. People are allowed to get sick, they are allowed to lose things, and their children are allowed to be sick especially for children that our school aged.

Fact: JENNIFER ROBINSON IS NOT A FRAUD & I KNOW PERSONALLY SHE HAS DONE HONEST, GREAT THINGS FOR MANY PEOPLE!

Fact: Jennifer supporters are in the hundreds and she has letters and signed documents that she has helped them reunite and how satisfied they are with her work. Compared to your twenty people that are "Unsatisfied" every business has unsatisfied people, especially in Adoption Reunions.

Fact: Bring it on! Jennifer has many supporters and we will back her.

Lets see...

I never said that you HAVE to have a business license, only that Jennifer does not have one. She used to... but does not any more.

As for helping in your searches... I've repeatedly mentioned on here and on my website that Jennifer is capable of solving searches, however, it is what she does when she CANNOT solve the search that is is question here.

Those shows you mentioned... funny, I called them and they had NO record of Jennifer Robinson helping them. To show both sides here, I haven't mentioned this before because it could be that the person I was speaking with didn't know anything as she sounded a little dense. Also, if you click the link that is on Jennifer's website to that show, it goes NOWHERE.

Ok, the BBB, this is a fun one. You may want to get YOUR facts straight here. You are correct in explaining the purpose of the BBB, however, you are NOT CORRECT in saying that Jennifer did not respond to our complaints. She responded to mine, and others. And I'll be happy to post her responses on the GivenRightVictims website. And because she DID respond, the BBB sided with the victim, NOT JENNIFER.

You are correct that I do not know for sure if Jennifer wrote some things. I said it was my BELIEF that she did and wrote why I think it was her.

As for your next question... so easy to answer... the excuses came at FIRST, right after she got the money. Then came the avoidance when she ran our of excuses and couldn't answer us any more. Usually when a person would start to ask if she was scamming them. Oh yea, thanks for mentioning the phone bill. I'll post mine on the website as well. My bill shows all incoming and outgoing numbers. I can PROVE every time I had contact with Jennifer, and exactly when she started avoiding. I'll make a "PROOF" page on the website and post all of mine. I have nothing to hide.

Hey if Jennifer wants to work from her home, so be it. I was only stating the fact that she does because when I first had contact with her, she IMPLIED that she had an office and is was misleading to me.

Yes, I know about Jennifer's supposed illness. And yes, people get sick. What's amazing about this is that she only gets sick, or her kid gets sick, or comcast is down, all at that same critical time that she is supposed to be sending information to someone after being "100% positive" she found the correct person. And that's a fact in all 20+ cases.
Coincidence? I think not.

JENNIFER ROBINSON IS A FRAUD. I BELIEVE IT, I KNOW IT, AND I SUPPORT IT!

This goes BEYOND being a dissatisfied customer Bonnie. She would have been better off taking the money and running WITHOUT making up the stories. But she CHOSE to make up stories instead. She hurt people, she drained people, she even caused a few people to consider suicide, and IN MY OPINION, it doesn't really matter how many people she's helped when she can be as deceiving and manipulative as she was with us. It's all about the FABRICATED STORIES she made up, Bonnie. Why can't you see that? Of course she's not going to screw you... you said yourself you send her many things. I'm sure she's very honest with y0u if she cannot do what you ask because she knows you will send another later. That's just common sense.

But since you ARE such good friends with her, and you state here that you basically don't believe us, why don't you ask Jennifer to see my file? I authorize her to give it to you, right here, in writing for everyone to see. I challenge you to look at my file and tell me that Jennifer did not scam me, Bonnie. I have no worries, I have nothing to hide. You say you really want to help Jennifer? Well here's you chance. Go ahead, look at my file. Look at all. I'll post my proof on the website tomorrow, and you can look it over with what Jennifer has. I'll even send an email to Jennifer authorizing her to give you my file so she can't make any excuses for not giving it to you.

Only After seeing EVERYTHING should you be on here making any statements about what we have gone through with Jennifer. Because just because she's helped you with your cases, it DOES NOT, and SHOULD NOT discount the fact that she's scammed others!

Oops... accidentally skipped two of your points...

I DO NOT delete or change any comments that are on GivenRightVictims.com. I personally did not state that Jennifer was part of TXcare and I'm not sure who did. If you look at the comments page on the website, you will see that i have left EVERYONE's comments there, good or bad (I did delete ONE comment that I thought was threatening because I do not condone that type of stuff and I dont know who wrote it). I DO NOT pre-approve comments nor do I have to authorize them to be posted to the website. As soon as someone writes a comment and hits the button, it posts. And I leave it there for everyone to see. The ONLY comments I will consider deleting are threatening ones. So those two facts you listed are NOT FACTS at all.

Floria, or Bonnie, however you wish to be addressed, if you want to start a fan page for Jennifer, go start one, SOMEWHERE ELSE. This thread is for the networking of people that have been scammed by Jennifer, not to sing her praises. What I find amusing is that the person you speak of sounds warm, and kind, and good. We all know that Jennifer is evil and hateful and greedy, and that there is a special place in hell for her, and in my opinion, also for her supporters. I disagree that Jennifer could "not have written those statements" For to me, they sound just like the kind of trashy things that I heard come out of her mouth with my own ears. CASE IN POINT...Jennifer told us that the name we had for a search we were doing was wrong, well guess what, We found her and the name was RIGHT...She blatantly lied. Marie, don't get all fired up by Floria/Bonnie, that's exactly what she wants you to do, we all know the truth.

Jennifer gave me false information. I have it in writing. I won my Paypal dispute with her and she emptied her account to avoid paying me back. I have it in writing.

I have asked, no, begged, Jennifer privately and publicly to complete my search, she won't respond.
Jennifer said my grandparents' names were Sierra and Ali. That's not their names.
Jennifer said they live in Pasagoula, Mississippi, they never did.
Jennifer said she spoke to my them. They are both dead. One has been dead for 14 years.
Jennifer said they told her my mom didn't want contact with me, she did.
Jennifer said my biological father lives in Cleveland, he doesn't.
Jennifer said my b-mom was not married in Ohio, she was.
Jennifer said my b-mom lives in "Arabia", she doesn't.
Jennifer said she contacted my b-mom's high school for a yearbook picture so I could see her face. I never got it. And never could because she lied about the name.

Jennifer said she would send all of the information including names, dates and driver's license information via US postal service and email immediately so that I could have a sense of who I am. That was on June 6, 2008 at 12:02PM. I am still waiting.

I am sure researchers make mistakes. Everyone does. The right thing to do would be to tell me so that I could move on. Instead I spent a whole summer, everyday looking for Ali and Sierra in Mississippi and the man she said was my dad in Cleveland. I paid for memberships to public data and other data bases to find these 3 people. I fought with the cell phone company sure that emails were not being pushed through because I did not believe that someone could be so hateful as to promise someone an email that contained a lifetime of answers and not deliver.

Call it what you want. I call it fraud and heartless. Once given permission from the Authorities so as not to compromise my case, I will be happy to post every written lie given to me from Givenright.com.

I still literally get sick to my stomach when I have to relive what Jennifer and Givenright.com did to me and my family.

The fact that she is inconsistent when doing it to people makes me sicker. Why did she do it to us? Tell me Floria, why did your pure and honest good friend who you adore so much do this to us? What did we do to her? And why has she not completed the searches? Why did she LIE, and not try to rectify it? Why didn't she give me my money back? Actually, she can keep the $400 dollars. She needs to FIX what she did to the 20 people she hurt. It's that simple. Fix it.

In fact, Floria, how about if WE give YOU the information Jennifer gave us and YOU explain it. You add it all together and make it make sense. You make the man from Cleveland be my birth father and you make Sierra and Ali from Mississippi be my grandparents. Then we can all do DNA tests to confirm.

Don't worry about it, Floria. I would not trust you or anyone else with my information. Unfortunately, Jennifer Robinson made me a very jaded person and made me realize that there are really horrible predators on the internet. It's my fault for being trusting in the first place.

FACT: Jennifer did everything I stated above and I have the documentation to prove it. I don't need or want any other facts.

sfachick: "We all know that Jennifer is evil and hateful and greedy, and that there is a special place in hell for her, and in my opinion, also for her supporters."

I do not know if having a successful search qualifies me as a "supporter" but as someone from the successful side of things that type of comment I find unnecessary. I think I have been fair on both sides and admittedly, as I have done many times before, I am shocked and sadden to see all the things that "Jennifer"* has done to those of you on the unsuccessful side. It does bother me and that is why I have continued to come on here and follow everyone's story.

While I feel my eyes have been opened, at times some of the comments on here are hard to get past. I do try to understand your pain and by no means am I trying to ignore that or not sympathize with your pain. But blanket statements such as the one I quoted makes me think twice about what is said on here. It is comments such as this one that causes me to wonder if this forum is about the complaint or scam or is it more about how many negative comments we van generate about Jennifer. I might be the only one, but for me it does not help your cause.

* I quoted Jennifer not be included in further comment bashing, but because earlier posts referenced a "Stephanie Cruz" that may be the center of some of these complaints.

sfachick-

Whom ever you might be, I agree with Jason Holder. This is truly awful what you and others have stated about Jennifer. I know a different Jennifer then you have mentioned. The person I know is warm and happy, funny and exciting, loving and caring. She has taken time out of her day to check on me when I was sick by calling and just saying "Are you okay?" and that I am in her prayers. I know she is a christian person.

She has given so much to the adoption community and has done hundreds of free searches for people including your friend Alicia. Jennifer is a great mother, she has overcome so much in her life. If you knew anything about the person you are bashing, you would know these things as well.

I will tell you more about the person you are thinking is so awful, Jennifer's son was born with Craniosynostosis. Craniosynostosis consists of premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures, often resulting in an abnormal head shape, Jennifer for years has dealt with her sons illness and has been there for her son no matter what difficulty he has endured, he has so many problems and has had three surgeries, he almost past away from Craniosynostosis. Yet, Jennifer gave to the adoption community by helping others reunite during all of the problems she was facing.

I do call Jennifer almost daily and she is hurt by your comments yet, she refuses to read them any longer. She juggles a lot, and is always there for all of us and for birth parents and people that are adopted I am sorry you feel that she was lying to you and that you feel scammed. I’d like to be able to do what she does and still function in everyday life, I definitely have asked her for a lot of advice when it comes to searching and she knows her stuff when it comes to adoption.

What ever excuses you state she told you does not mean anything to me, She is not evil, She is a good person, She has never caught her in a lie, and I have known her for years. I have seen her reunite so many poeple over and over again. In a business you will always have people mad at you, always have people be overly happy, always have people complain about something, or give you praises. In this world we live in today people are being overly critical and judgemental on purpose! People have a hard time trusting in others.

I am not a bible scholar or anything but, sfachick since you know so much about hell maybe you should read this from the bible!

Rom 14:10-15 “But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written: “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother's way. I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. Yet if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.

As I sit here overwhelmed with sadness, reflection on the many things that have been said here, I am watching on the news almost play by play the exact scenario people stating that Michael Jackson was a pedophile yet, so many do not believe that this was true, I do not know what has happened in your search yet, I do know the person Jennifer is to me and others, She is none of what you have commented on I am truly, truly gutted, and sadden by your reactions.

Why would Jennifer respond to people that bashed her, not just once but, many times? I would not respond to those people either if I was her. Now, they also bash reunited people, researchers, and friends of Jennifer "for no reason" ... And there was nothing classy about people using profanity about her or others.

Marie: You state you do not take comments off your website yet, you do not verify the people you place on there either or their comments, we know that is a fact!

Whoa whoa whoa.. First off, Bonnie, you failed to answer my question about getting my file from Jennifer, and my information from my side, and comparing the two and telling me what happened. What are you afraid of? That you will find out that Jennifer is not the sweet, honest person you think she is? The door is open here, Bonnie... this can all end with you right now. Just say the word and I'll make all of my information available to you. If you can give me a STRAIGHT answer as to who Jennifer called and spoke to... the person she was 100% sure was by birth mom... the answers for where all of the background checks, addresses, phone numbers she promised me... Isn't this the ultimate goal here? To find out if Jennifer is a fraud or not? Here's your chance to prove me wrong! But let me tell you, I wouldn't make this opportunity available to you if I were not 1000000% sure that Jennifer scammed me. So you may want to prepare yourself for that.

Now, as for COMMENTS on the website... as I said, I do not change them, delete them (unless threatening), or alter them in any way. HOWEVER, as for the actual VICTIM STORIES on there... I DO verify them all. I have right here next to me envelopes upon envelopes of PROOF of most of the victim's cases. I have forwarded emails that victims sent me to prove their cases. Don't believe me? Well, I'm going to lay them out on the floor, take photos tonight, and with permission from the victims, I'll post them (with names blacked out) on the website. I've spoken with EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THESE VICTIMS. I've cried for them, I've prayed for them, I've tried to emotionally support them and help them. So don't tell me I don't know who's on the website because believe me, I DO.

As for Jennifer's son's illness... what does that, or her illness, have to do with anything here? I have one too... 2 and a half years ago I had a ruptured brain aneurysm that almost killed me. I died TWICE. I had brain surgery. I had to learn to walk, talk, eat, speak all over again. I had a YEAR of recovery. I lost my home, my car, my job, my health insurance, basically my life. I'm sure you are wondering what this has to do with Jennifer. Well, for starters, this is a hereditary condition. Look it up. THIS is why I was trying to find my birth mother and by brother... to try to save the life of any family members if they do not know of this condition. In addition to that, I'm SUPPOSED TO limit stress in my life. So... if you think for ONE MINUTE that I enjoy doing this... sitting here arguing with you because you think that we are all a bunch of liers... putting my health at risk to try to save as many people as I can from enduring the pain and heartache that Jennifer caused me... you are strongly mistaken. I'm a single parent of three kids and a grandchild, work full time plus a part time job, and volunteer coach youth volleyball. I can think of a million other things I could be doing with my time other than arguing with you. But I cannot just sit back and allow people to discount what Jennifer did to us. I will not.

And as for your bible verse... I went to 12 years of catholic school... and believe me, Jennifer WILL have to stand before the judgment of Christ and I will pray for her when she does. Because Lord knows, she's gonna need it!

Jason H,
I am sincerely trying to keep everything to facts here. I do not bash you at all for coming forward and I do not believe that sfachick was even referring to you. You simply stated your fact that she performed a successful search for you and how it happened. I think she is referring to people like Bonnie that want to discount what Jennifer did to us, and chooses to think that we are all lying.

I don't have a problem with people saying the truth about anything. You had a successful search in 2005. Scamming started to the best of my knowledge in 2007. The facts are the facts. We all have our proof. We just wish that people would allow us to post our stories and our opinions on here (it IS called COMPLAINTSBOARD for a reason) and not push aside what we have endured. The people with successful searches or "friends" of Jennifer can believe what they want, but that doesn't mean they have to come on here and make us all out to be liars. I did not call anyone a liar for coming on here and saying they had a successful search.. Yes, I've asked for proof, and I said I was skeptical. But after dealing with Jennifer the way that WE did, it becomes very difficult to trust ANYONE. And when the writing of someone has the SAME EXACT inconsistencies as so many emails to different victims, Well, we are gonna think it's her. The inconsistencies are not only the normal misspelled words... they are usually words used that sound alike (are/our). And the words that ARE misspelled are misspelled the same exact way as Jennifer has in emails and prior posts.

Anyway... My point is that I'm trying to keep it as clean as I can. I have my proof. I know you have yours because I've seen it. And I can tell from some of your posts that you do not pass judgment on US as people who are not telling the truth, you just find it hard to comprehend. I just wish everyone else would do the same.

PS- just to give you a better understanding... when Jennifer found your loved one, you were probably so excited you couldn't sleep. Well, so were we. And then we all got shafted. Night after night of crying ourselves to sleep. In my experience I added email to my phone so I would know exactly when the information came. It did not. I SLEPT with my phone because I knew she was in a different time zone. And in the end, every phone call message, every email not returned. No closer to knowing who I was than when I first started. I cried more tears in that month than anyone can ever imagine. I had to leave work one day because I could not pull myself together. Still thinking the whole time "she spoke to my birth mom, why is she not sending me the information. Why is she not returning my calls? My emails? Why can't she just give me the phone number she called?" I didn't sleep for weeks. And it took a really long time to pull myself back together with a lot of help from the wonderful man in my life. And I can honestly say if it weren't for him, I don't know if I would have made it through... it was THAT bad. And I know it was the same for many others.

So my point here is NOT to bash Jennifer. Only to warn others that it could happen to them if they hire her. I just don't believe that anyone should ever have to endure that kind of pain in their life. Ever! And I only wish someone would have warned me.

Marie,

You have to understand my point of view as well, Jennifer has always helped me and many other searchers. I know of many search angels and searcher that have used her and been very very successful with her help. Jennifer knows what she is doing as a searcher and what reason would she have to scam you or others? If she was scamming you for money then she would have scammed people for years before she shared half her money with a partner or quote office manager.

Searches are not free and some people lead people to believe they are free. You state that Jennifer did not return your calls but, isn't it true she talked to you up to three times are more a day and you were in contact with her through her MySpace as well? Yes, it is true because I have the copy of those e-mails and calls sitting right in front of me at my desk, also, sits a copy of your file that I am reviewing free of charge. I also see Jennifer gave you her personal passwords to her paid data base and on the e-mail it states you can use it as much as you want to look up your missing friends and other information.

I sit her in amazement because many searchers including myself would not allow my clients to contact me through i.m., MySpace and other ways, I do not call them with updates or e-mail them. When their search is complete they get a letter in the mail, I know many searchers that use this practice, so, to allow you to contact her in other ways, I think shows what kind of women Jennifer really is.

Many times as I have stated to you before searchers use contacts and other people to help in the search, these contact provide information through different sources, sometimes a contact can give information that is not correct, but, most the time the information is correct from them. That is why most searchers get paid up front for a fee so they can pay whom ever contact they need to use up front. If Jennifer was provided a name which I believe she was, she would go on that name.If the name was incorrect she would try can contact the person and look into it more. Yet, if she believed the name was correct she might give you the name.

This is why I do not recommend going through a open searcher, and I do recommend people use the court system. Search angels and open searchers can make a mistakes, I have made mistakes in searches, not saying Jennifer did in your case. If someone makes a mistake they should try and correct that mistake, I think you would agree with me, yet, I do not believe she has scammed you in any way shape or form. I also see her that you had Jennifer's personal cell number, home number, myspace and more, no one that is going to scam someone give them all that information to contact them.

As for you calling the Mike and Juliet show check out the waybackmachine http://web.archive.org/web/20071122234035/http://www.mandjshow.com/videos/mother-and-daughter-reunite/

Why don't try Tracey La'Stell Slates producer for the Sharon Osburne Show that worked with Jennifer Robinson

Why don't you try Matt Reid that worked with VH1 and ask him about the reunion story they did with Jennifer.

You might want to contact MTV because Jennifer is correctly working with them on a story right at this moment on a story about adoption.

Jennifer did have a Incorporated License and cancelled due to the fact she did not need to have a incorporated license.

I am very sorry that you feel that Jennifer has wrongly done something to you and others. I have complaints come my way from time to time and people have stated bad things about me and other searchers, we are not perfect and never have we claimed to be perfect.

As for this is a complaint board our complaint is that Jennifer has done wonderful things for many people and that she is being bashed by others and some of us feel that we should state how we feel about her and what she has done for us. We have that right to do so, just as you have the right to state how you feel.

This is what the complaint board states their board is for: Complaints Board - Submit ComplaintSubmit a complaint, write a complaint letter about allegedly unethical scam companies, bad business practices, defective products and more.

You see the word allegedly and the word MORE.. We are the MORE in this sentence!

Your statement: "The inconsistencies are not only the normal misspelled words... they are usually words used that sound alike (are/our). And the words that ARE misspelled are misspelled the same exact way as Jennifer has in emails and prior posts". Show me any post Jennifer wrote on this board or your website with misspelled words and show me she wrote it.

Marie,
You have not only posted on this board and made a web site calling Jennifer a fraud, you have been c/c on emails to Jennifer's follow search friends asking them to remove their site from Jennifer's website that she is a fraud. Also, your site has been placed on many adoption search groups calling Jennifer a fraud and more. I am not sure that you did this but, you were c/c on them from a person that never used Jennifer for a search. I would call that pretty vindictive to say the least, her friends have nothing to do with hiring her.6/23/2009

I see that many people have come forward as friends / followers / supporters of Jennifer Robinson. I however, come as a friend of Marie.

Let me start by saying that I have known Marie for the past 10 years. I have had the pleasure of knowing her on both a personal and professional level. I was with her throughout her brain aneurysm and watched her slowly piece her life back together. That was nothing however, compared to the distress that Jennifer Robinson and Given Right have put her through.

I remember the first day that Marie found out about Given Right and Jennifer Robinson. She was ecstatic that she had found someone who may actually be able to help her in locating her birth mother. Initially, Marie raved about how great Jennifer was and that she believed that this truly was her opportunity to find her birth parents.

A couple days later, Jennifer told her that she had located and spoke to her birth mother. She gave Marie a name and promised that contact information would be sent immediately. Marie began her own search of the name that Jennifer had given her. She tracked down several people by the same name via various search engines and databases. Marie debated for days whether or not to contact these people. Meanwhile, Jennifer kept giving Marie excuses… my daughter’s sick, something happened to her neighbors, my computer is down, etc.

As I’m sure you all can imagine by now, the name that Jennifer supplied to Marie was incorrect… completely fabricated. Then the games of avoidance and deception really began.
In the days following, Marie was a wreck… easily the worst that I have seen her. She was completely distraught at not only the thought of losing her money, but also of losing out on the opportunity to truly connect with her birth parents. There were numerous days filled with tears, leaving work early, etc.

Marie is a strong resilient woman and bounced back quickly. She is adamant about keeping others from falling victim to this scam and as such, developed her website GivenRightVictims.com.

I wholeheartedly believe that Given Right is a SCAM and a FRAUD. Marie has files on top of files filled with copies of emails, Better Business Bureau Reports, and other correspondence with Jennifer. Some of you have stated that there is no ‘proof.’ Just ask Marie… she’s got it ALL!

Dictionary.com defines fraud as: deceit, trickery, sharp practice, or breach of confidence, perpetrated for profit or to gain some unfair or dishonest advantage. In my opinion, this is EXACTLY what Jennifer did to Marie and the other Given Right Victims.

I sincerely hope that Marie will be successful in dismantling this company and stopping Jennifer from wreaking havoc on any other adoptee’s lives.

Great, Bonnie, I'm glad you received everything from Jennifer. I am in the process of scanning all of MY documents now and I will post them on GivenRightVictims.com later today. I've included my phone records, incoming and outgoing, my emails, my email receipts, the BBB report showing that Jennifer DID reply... and she wrote that she provided me with the name of my birth mother, when in fact, she agreed with me on the phone, and in emails, that she KNOWS the name provided to me is NOT my birth mother. How do you explain that?

I never stated that Jennifer did not speak with me ever... only that once I figured out that she gave me incorrect information and she promised to fix it, that's when she stopped answering any calls or emails. Don't worry, I have plenty of proof to that and it will be posted today.

And how can you make this statement... "I have made mistakes in searches, not saying Jennifer did in your case. If someone makes a mistake they should try and correct that mistake, I think you would agree with me", fully KNOWING that Jennifer not only MADE A MISTAKE, but will not CORRECT THAT MISTAKE? If she did, we wouldn't be here today, would we?

And it doesn't matter how many email addresses, phone numbers, or TEMPORARY passwords you give a person. If you do not RESPOND to those emails and those phone calls what does it matter? Caller ID solves a lot of problems for Jennifer because she can see who's calling, and not answer the call. She chooses not to return calls. She chooses not to return emails. And as for the password she gave me to privateeye... I looked, she signed up for a 24 hour pass which I'm sure was not just for me... she probably needed it to search for something else. Not to mention the fact that I did not pay her to do my search myself, I paid her for HER to search. In which she said she did, and had the phone number, but would not provide it to me.

FYI- In my case, I was not asked to pay anything upfront! I have it IN WRITING that Givenright is a NO FIND / NO FEE company. I only had to pay AFTER my birth mother was found. Guess what? She wasn't found! And I've already paid under the understanding that she was! Where's my money? I don't care if it costs a million dollars a year to run a search company. I, as the client, care about how much I'm being charged, and what I'm getting for my money. In this case, I paid for nothing and received nothing. NOT what I was promised! If the owner of a company does not calculate their business expenses correctly, or charge enough to cover them, that's NOT my problem. That is something the company needs to fix to stay in business, but not at the expense of ME. An agreement is an agreement... No find / No fee. What does that mean to you?

As foryou not providing your personal information when searching etc... you know that is different, Bonnie, because you work for the court system. I know you are bound by certain 'rules' of the way you have to go about a search. You have the access to the files and see the person's birth mother's name right in front of you. Adoptees would be hounding your personal emails and cell phone all day to beg you for that information. It's just not feasable for you to do that, understandably. I also know that this is one of the reasons why you sell the information to Jennifer. I also know that if Jennifer stopped searching, you would probably lose a great deal of money yourself which is one reason, I BELIEVE, that you are in such support of her, instead of opening your eyes to the facts and seeing what she has done to us.

When I post my information on the website, be sure to pay special attention to the email from Jennifer dated 4/21 stating "I'm calling the woman today and asking some questions." She was calling the woman because I got proof that the information she provided to me was INCORRECT and she agreed with me on the phone, over and over, that is "IS INCORRECT" and she's not sure what happened but she would fix it right away... well, here I am, 3 months later... with nothing! She also replied to the BBB AFTER 4/21 saying something completely different. As if she gave me the correct information. That will be posted on the website today too.

It's taking me some time to get it all scanned and typed up, then I'll get it on the website but I'll be sure to post here when it's done today so you know to look at it.

And Rachel, thank you very much! I appreciate that!

Bonnie... I just realized that you stated above that you have a copy of the calls that you received from Jennifer. Well then, please give me the Pennsylvania phone number that Jennifer called on 4/7/09 to speak with my birth mother. That is the day she stated she spoke with her and that is the day she claimed she was trying to get a copy of her bill for so she could give me the number. She told me that is was "very difficult" to get an itimized list of phone numbers from her phone company which is why it was taking so long. Obviously, anoter lie since she was able to provide it to you within 24 hours. So... What's that Pennsylvania number please? I'm still ready to make that call!

“If she was scamming you for money then she would have scammed people for years before she shared half her money with a partner or quote office manager.”

For the record, Bonnie, there were several clients complaining of being scammed prior to this “quote office manager” (read: glorified secretary) having worked for Jennifer, and there have been several since I quit working for Jennifer. And another thing, Jennifer hardly paid me “half”. I was supposed to be paid $50 for each client I enlisted and then $50 at the end of each completed search for interfacing with clients throughout the search process. However, when I tallied all the money I received from Jennifer last year for taxes and deducted all the business expenses (her internet service, phone service, publicdata.com, privateeye.com, etc) I ended up with much less than that. In fact, if I were on welfare, as I have been accused of, I would still have qualified for services under the pay scale limitations for this state based solely on my income from GivenRight.

“I also see her that you had Jennifer's personal cell number, home number, myspace and more, no one that is going to scam someone give them all that information to contact them.” Actually, Jennifer lists most of that information on outgoing emails to everyone as part of her signature line. Then, blocks anyone (in email or myspace) or simply does not answer calls (she has caller i.d.) or return phone calls if someone shows any resistance to the information she has provided and questions whether or not she actually made contact with the people she claims to have contacted.

“You might want to contact MTV because Jennifer is correctly working with them on a story right at this moment on a story about adoption.” Maybe Marie could contact MTV and they could do a story on what really is going on with Jennifer.

“I am very sorry that you feel that Jennifer has wrongly done something to you and others.” Feeling and KNOWING are two different things. These people KNOW they were taken.

“I have complaints come my way from time to time and people have stated bad things about me and other searchers, we are not perfect and never have we claimed to be perfect.” You’re right. Jennifer only claims a 98% success rate. Not only deceptive, but unrealistic.

“Your statement: "The inconsistencies are not only the normal misspelled words... they are usually words used that sound alike (are/our). And the words that ARE misspelled are misspelled the same exact way as Jennifer has in emails and prior posts". Show me any post Jennifer wrote on this board or your website with misspelled words and show me she wrote it.” Why don’t YOU contact the administration of this complaint board and get the IP address for “Tina Mckee, knowing your junk, Slam, bam, peter pan, and Peter pan's helper” and then compare it to Jennifer’s IP address. Then, try and tell us we’re wrong. I dare you.

Additionally, Jennifer only changed to a “no find/no fee” service when there were too many complaints out on the internet for her to continue doing business otherwise.

Bonnie, you have already stated yourself that you are not only a “friend” of Jennifer’s but that you also work with her. I am sure that the multitudes of BBB and online complaints has put a damper on your business (with Jennifer), otherwise you would not be here defending her now. I probably wouldn’t be here either, except for the fact that I found I was being blamed for Jennifer’s actions (according to several complainants, by Jennifer herself). Let’s just put our cards on the table and be honest here.

P.S. Petty name-calling, cursing, and childish put-downs won’t deter me from telling the truth.

Marie,

I am up way too late working on Marie's case and responding to these comments ~ thought I had take a break for a minute and go moderate comments. I found the following from "Marie" and started to post my own comment in reply ~ but after typing for a bit, anger stated to hit me and I comprised myself and sat back and prayed.

I prayed for you Marie and others that have been felt hurt feelings, "I prayed for my friend and fellow searcher Jennifer, that she would not be hurt any longer, and that she could understand your pain, I prayed that all you would resolve an impossible situation"

I am looking at this phone bill Jennifer has blacked out every ones number accept for yours for their protection, I can see where the calls were to and there was 15 calls to Pennsylvania on this date. I do think Jennifer scammed you I think she was going on the name she was told was your birth mother's name.

I see that Jennifer did work on your case and she believes she had located your birth mother. It seems you contacted the BBB only two weeks after you contacted Jennifer to do your search, and three days after Jennifer wrote you back stating she would try to help you figure this all out. I DO think Jennifer tried to work with you on this matter. If someone stated bad things about me calling me a THIEF, SCAMMER, LIAR and more I would come unglued. I do not think I would have contact with them either
* WOULD YOU? *

There are many people that do back Jennifer in the search community some of these people have sent letters that you have written to them concerning Jennifer, You have stated you are not trying to bash Jennifer. But, I do feel you are causing some form of harassment and bullying. No matter how unfair or frustrating the situation may seem it is normal to get angry. To communicate with someone, you need to remain levelheaded to get your point across. Have you ever heard "Kill your enemies with kindness" This does work I have to remain claim daily when I get a birth mother that hates me because I found her, or a adopted child that states their parents are the people that raised them not gave birth to them. It works! Trust me!

I know Jennifer pretty well and feel that she is not only my friend, an inspiring person, impressive searcher, I feel she is also like one of my family. Many of us feel this way in the adoption community about her and since this continues we will continue to support her as long as this transpires, no matter how many bad or good post may be.

I just got off the phone with a lady, she was crying to me about how much she misses her two children she was forced to place for adoption, she stated this and I thought that I should use it in my post" It takes a mature, powerful, loving and courageous person to come to that realization by putting your child’s well-being first is the correct thing to do in life, It takes strong, understanding and patient adoptee not to know all the answers for their questions that they might have about their birth family, It takes a strong minded, loving, giving person, to want to put up with all the details they have to listen to through out the day, all the tears, all the pain involved, all the concentration it takes to find someone, and then to hear their side of the story, you have to be a well rounded open hearted person to be a searcher. I was just thinking Jennifer is all three of these a searcher, an adoptee, and a birth mother, her mind and heart must be full.

“I do think Jennifer scammed you…” Freudian slip, Bonnie?

“But, I do feel you are causing some form of harassment and bullying.” Stating facts is not “some form of harassment and bullying”. However, the statements by Jennifer aka Tina Mckee, knowing your junk, Slam, bam, peter pan, and Peter pan's helper, do qualify as harassment and bullying. Did you ever get that IP address or are you going to blow that off along with all the other proof that has been offered to you?

“To communicate with someone, you need to remain levelheaded to get your point across.” Have you shared these sentiments with Jennifer, because I believe she is the one trying to “draw flies with vinegar.”

Bonnie, you just don’t get it (or maybe you do, which makes you just as culpable). Jennifer would never scam you the way she has these people because you have more business to offer her. You and she share a symbiotic relationship. Although you are not as crass in your responses, the fact that you keep trying to paint Jennifer to be a saint only weakens your case when you stray from the facts at hand.

Alicia,
First in for most, I did not write to you accept for asking if you were happy. Alicia, I have read your slay comments concerning Jennifer. I meant to state I do not think Jennifer scammed Marie.

Alicia this has nothing to do with you other then people sticking your name in the mix with Jennifer. I did not bash you in any way, you seem to be bashing other as if this is your duty. As someone made the statement before Alicia stick to what you know and this is not all about YOU.

NO ONE! asked you to work for Jennifer for a year, Jennifer did not force you to use your credit cards. I am flat out calling you a BOLD FACE liar ALICIA, I have Jennifer's records, and she did paid you for what expenses that you placed on your credit cards out of the money she received from clients, you might have used your credit card but, money was reimbursed back to you.

Alicia, I was very pleasant to you and felt you were getting the bad end of the stick on here. I never commented on your behavior but, I SEE YOU have created your own vinegar on this board and other places. Alicia, NO ONE claims to be a Saint, but, I see from your emails you are not next to sainthood. I have an email sitting here from you were stating “Jennifer, I changed the password to ER!N!SA[censored]“ Also, I have another email, stating "I put Judy's email in the Looney Bin folder "She is a Wack Job" these WebMail are both from you and your isp to Jennifer at givenright@msn.com. It seems very convenient that the "B" word is written in the same manner as the hateful post about you. I apologize but, it just seem to ring wrong in my ears.

This is an incorrect statement Alicia, I do not give Jennifer business, I help her and she helps me for FREE. This statement is a lie again "Jennifer would never scam you the way she has these people because you have more business to offer her". We work together to solve searches.

People with learning disabilities may have the difficulty organizing thoughts and ideas during the writing process. Writing mechanics such as grammar and spelling may be inconsistent, depending on what they are writing or reading, grammar is included. Proofreading and editing may be difficult for Jennifer with a reading disability such as Dyslexia, you know this because, she asked you to write all emails for her to the clients, I also have this email in front of me. I am almost certain she did not write these things about you.

My mind seems to wonder sometimes and I wonder if you made the statements to make yourself look better in the eyes of others. There are written statements that you have referred to before, they are written in the same manner. I notice did not write Peter Pans Helper on your statement that leads me to believe that must be written by you as well.

I am learning so much about how people can back bit others, lie, hurt, and destroy others, this saddens me so much. What has this world come too.
