re: I think we have been comprised

Brian,

Your story just goes to show how generous and good-hearted many Americans are — one of the reasons so many scammers look to us for “riches.” The world we live in now is such that you look carefully on each of these incidents to try to ascertain their legitimacy. Oh, that we could turn the clock back when a handshake could be trusted and words were indeed true.

Thanks for sharing your encouraging story.
