When US couples want to adopt a baby they often
post ads online and search social media for
women pregnant with an unwanted child.
Sometimes it works - but there are dangers. One
young scammer has tricked countless couples,
just for fun, by stealing the identity of a pregnant
woman.
It's early February 2019, half way through one of the
coldest Michigan winters in recent history. The grey
sky threatens snow.
Thirty-three-year-old Samantha Stewart is in her
pyjamas at home in Wixom, just outside Detroit,
doing Sunday morning chores. There's a full
washing basket, a house to be cleaned and dogs to
walk. It's just after 11:00 when she receives a
direct message request on Instagram from
@ashleymamabear2019.
It's not anyone she knows - but she accepts the
message and starts reading.
"Are you looking to adopt still?" are the opening
words.
It's six years since Sam had a hysterectomy.
Throughout her 20s she underwent a series of
operations in an attempt to control her
endometriosis, a condition that causes the womb
lining to grow in other parts of the body and can
lead to crippling pain. They didn't work. By the time
she was 27 it had become clear she would have to
lose her womb - and the chance of carrying a child.
It took time for Sam to recover from the stress and
the heartache. Though she longed for a family, it
was only at the end of last year that she and her
husband, Dave, felt ready to contact an adoption
agency and begin the laborious process of adopting
a child. They passed their home study, an
assessment of their suitability to be parents, and
underwent training. Then they set up an Instagram
account, @findingbabystewart, posting requests for
birth parents to contact them, illustrated by an
empty cot in a freshly painted nursery.
Sam examines @ashleymamabear2019's Instagram
feed. Ashley is 16, from a small town outside
Atlanta, Georgia.
She posts mirror photos, love notes to her boyfriend
Chris, and selfies with Snapchat filters. Her hair is
straight and honey-blonde and a backwards cap
usually covers his. But there is one thing that sets
them apart from thousands of other American teen
couples - the occasional shots of Ashley's figure,
her face beaming as Chris places his hand against
her swollen, round belly. This is the baby Ashley is
making plans to give away.
The women begin messaging, but not before Sam
has called her husband, Dave, her parents and
Dave's parents in excitement. She doesn't spend
much time wondering why they look so happy about
the pregnancy, bearing in mind that it is unwanted.
They're young, she thinks.
"Are you guys talking to any other adoptive
families?" ventures Sam. "I'm just scared of being
hurt. I want to be a mom so badly."
"Nope," comes the reply.
Minutes later, Sam shoots back: "I'm crying."
Ashley's life had been harrowing. Her parents were
abusive, her mother killed herself. She was raped
by her brother at the age of 14, resulting in a
premature baby, a little girl who was given up for
adoption. The adoptive parents shut Ashley out,
preventing her from seeing her child. It would be
hard to write a bleaker story.
The contact is constant. Sometimes Chris takes
over texting because Ashley is feeling sick. When
they talk on the phone, Sam finds Ashley's
conversation immature, makes her excuses and
hangs up after half an hour. They text about
adoption plans late into the evening.
The temperature has now dropped to -5C, and a
light snow is falling. Sam is exhausted from
messaging. She explains that she's heading out for
dinner, and so won't be on her phone for a few
hours. She passes on her adoption agency's
details. |

But then, suddenly, Ashley becomes abusive. She
tells Sam she would be a bad parent. Shocked and
hurt, Sam stops replying. The adrenaline that has
kept her going all day suddenly drains away, and
she crashes on to the sofa.
"It's just - it's devastating. There's no other way to
describe it," she says later, remembering this
moment.
Sam assumes she will never hear from Ashley
again. She and Dave consider deleting their
Instagram posts appealing for pregnant women to
contact them. Sam begins to feel that adopting a
baby will take a long, long time.
Then, exactly a month later, as icy patches of
ground are beginning to thaw, a message arrives.
Ashley tells Sam the baby has been born early, at
31 weeks. Exasperated, Sam tells Ashley to contact
her adoption agency, or leave her family alone:
"Have a nice life and don't contact me."
It only takes 14 messages, though, for Ashley to
persuade Sam that there really is a premature baby
waiting for adoption. She names the medical centre
where she gave birth and Sam and Dave get ready
to fly there. Ashley sends a photograph of her
cuddling a premature baby, wrapped in a white
towel, wires trailing from the small body. It's
captioned, "She's yours."
"Omg I'm literally losing it. I can't wait to meet her,"
Sam replies. "I can't wait to spoil that pretty little
baby!"
There are three days of non-stop talking. Then
Ashley blocks Sam on Instagram. When Sam calls,
Ashley doesn't pick up.
There is no explanation, just silence.
Distressed, frantic, but already sensing that Ashley
has been getting a thrill out of tormenting her, Sam
posts a drawing of a broken heart on Instagram.
"They don't ask for money, they don't ask for
material things like a lot of scams do. They want
your time, emotional investment and quite frankly
someone to talk to while promising you what you
are desperate to find: your future child," she writes
in the caption. |

If you can wholeheartedly swear that all the people you know or suspect of taking part in ‘yahoo scams’ are all Igbo, then this your tribalism is justified. If you search your heart, we are all Nigerians, we have suspected (with good reason) or known yahoo boys that are from tribes all over the country- especially when you are lucky to live in a metropolitan city like Lagos or Abuja. Nigeria’s problem isn’t any one tribe. These shameful acts are a consequence of the decline in our value systems. In Nigeria today, it would be very difficult for a young girl to find even a ‘dishwasher’ job without someone wanting sex from her. Lecturers, Managers, HR specialists, Politicians, Pastors e.t.c. have all been soiling the country name. A person referred to by a British Judge as a ‘common petty thief’ was at a time, the most powerful Nigerian politician, even our ‘Man of Integrity President’ has so many things that call to question his integrity. Nigeria, if you are wise, you will know that tribalism is the main thing that hinders the fight for a better Nigeria. We will be divided in tribalism while people that have fraud cases against them become speaker of our national house of rep. Whether Invictus or Gbajabiamila, if we say No to criminals or people with criminal past ruling us, we set a standard and whoever falls short of it, so be it. We can’t be changing position when it is our tribesmen and otherwise when not. What is bad is bad and must be condemned. 1 Like |

What most Nigerians supporting Efcc doesn’t know is that the FG is just using Efcc to Launder money back to Government Pocket, Do you think all the huge amount of money and Properties (Car, Laptops, Phones e.t.c) they recover from these boys are given back to the victim or are they sharing it with the masses, No it’s all going to their Pocket, This people hate to see successful youth, that’s why they mostly consider every youth doing well as a fraudster, Some Nigerians are just so ignorant |
