I am not worried about whether I have the sponsor status by my name or not. We are all on a mission here against evildoers and that is what is important. Again, I am grateful to my daughter for listening to her instincts, convincing me that this man was a scam artist, and for sending me the connection to your site. It was a blessing in the midst of utter shock and heartbreak.

Let me just say thank you to the people that donated this week. There's just one problem. None of you gave your usernames when you donated, so we can't work out who sent what. Could you please PM me with the email address you donated with so we can change your status. Thanks again, and please keep those donations rolling in. Remember, everything you donate helps keep the site running and saving people from losing money to the scammers. Now isn't that worth donating for? :D

I really don't feel that guys can get across what they are really trying to say with their true emotions because I do believe that Wayne is truly saying Thank You All from the bottom of his heart to all that have donated to RS. These donations enabled the recent upgrade but it does require money to keep it up and running and I do know that it has and will continue to help many people. Everything has started growing since the upgrade has been done, new members, guests, new posts and replies to existing ones. To me that means people are gaining knowledge of the scamming problem and are fighting back too. I know that the people here put in a lot of their time and will stop what they are doing when someone is is need because they feel like their life has been taken from them. So is Wayne really asking for much?
Please don't get me wrong, I have been contacted by many people that have had private questions or statements and have been told by some that if it had not been for RS that they would of lost money or more money to their scammer and some were in the thousands.
P.S. I would like to say thank you too because the old system (or whatever you call it) was very slow.
:applause: :hugz: :)
We are here to help you free of charge
but there are charges to keep this site running.
If we were able to help in any way,
a small donation would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

How can I auto deduct monthly a certain amount for my donation thru my Visa Credit Card? How secure is my credit card information.....

It would be easier for me to this for I don't spend time much on the computer and I could keep track on it thru my billing statement.

I wholeheartedly support RS. Even though it was to late for me to know this site, it save my sanity. And I'm truly grateful to all of you. THANK YOU ! :kissing:

I don't have much extra money right now but I'll try to give my financial support and I hope someday when I get fully on my feet again I'll give more.

One thing we see a lot of here besides the romancers, is internet credit card fraud. West Africa and the romancers are a major factor in that particular crime. For that reason, I'm fairly certain that romancescam.com would never be interested in taking or processing credit cards via the net. RS is not a business. This is a non profit, volunteer web site.

Check with PayPal. I think you might be able to set up a recurring payment schedule with them, but if not, even a one time donation is a great help here. Don't even worry about the size. Anything helps.

Like Wayne is always saying, "Size doesn't matter." :mrgreen:

Just want to take a minute and thank everybody who generously donated to this site. Please keep in mind: I pay $210 per month out of my own pocket to pay for this site and scamdigger, and I will keep paying until I can, as I know how important it is. But we all have our financial ups and downs. ;)

So, every 5 bucks counts. THANK YOU, GUYS!! :)

Hello Marisa,
$210 per month? :thinking: Yes I can understand that some donations from us members will be of great help. Come on people! We spent thousands of dollars to these evil leeches and irritating goat, a few dollars for RS is a well spent money for all the help and all the laughs we get on here! Don't forget RS when you plan whom you will give a gift this coming Christmas. :party:
Nothing wrong of being an Engr. as long as you are real. :-)

This web site has saved me hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars through the "therapy" I have received here, which I did not have to spend on a "professional therapist". This site is what I call my "Salvation Station", and through it, I have gone from devasted "basket case" just two weeks ago to being almost back to normal....close anyway. :silly:

I figure the least I can do is to "support" RS through donation(s), so I started today. Here is my question....is it possible to set-up a monthly donation automatically, so that I do not have to go through manual process every month? Today, I used both credit card and Paypal.

Such a small price to pay for SO MUCH GOOD. Thank you...all of you. :D

Greetings to all
become a sponsor is very easy.
for such a small sum, you get a lot, I am a member of "the family RS" only two months. I find people here who have the same problems, helping each other, share feelings and experiences with each other, respect each other and advise each, no one is left waiting for help, each trying to do more than what is possible.
I learned a lot, and I'm grateful for that, I know, the sum is just extremely small, but, think about how many of us, victims, here, have found help and "shelter", and how many potential victims were settled. I am one of them, a victim once and saved for the future, it is worth more than the sum of one individual to sponsor-RS-, right? My contribution is a drop in the sea, indeed, one drop does not mean anything, but every drop is part of the sea, I'm happy and I can say, even proud, that I am also a drop in the sea.

Just did a lump sum rather than monthly thing. Hope it helps prevent some broken hearts and empty bank accounts.
