>>82116>cachexiaJust looked this up and it got me thinking…
What if Ashley's ED originally began due to her mental disorder and daddy issues, but developed cachexia at some point which is why she is withering away now. It could be that she was told by a doctor that it was irreversible and she has decided that she wants to spend the remainder of her life just trying to enjoy what she can.
If this were true, I would actually feel sorry for her. She might not have even known that cachexia was something that could occur and now she is faced with the reality that she is going to die young no matter what she does. This would also explain why she isn't forced into hospitalization…

It still really pisses me off that she tried to bullshit her way about getting that iphone 6. Like, bitch, even if you traded it in and had an upgrade on your account, it'll still cost at least another 50 dollars out of pocket. Which, with her saying that her and her mother can't afford food and whatnot, really shows you where the fuck her priorities are. She'd rather show off her goodies and cheap plastic toys, then be able to actually pay for necessities and live comfortably until the end of her (very near) days. Yeah, you're so fucking poor Ash.
I even sent her an anon message, calling her out on her bullshit about the phone, and I'm pretty sure she just deleted it, because she'd rather show us all the somewhat positive messages she receives now (sent herself, because we can all see through your shit, ash), since we called her out before, about posting nothing but negative asks.
God, I hate how full of bullshit she's always filled with.

Think of it like this. You've got a drug addict child who lives in your home. You don't give that child any money, but they are ~*E-FaMouS*~ and their followers send cash/checks via mail. Wouldn't you control the mailbox too? I sure as fuck would.

Actually, I thought of something. Selling like, things people will need in treatment in little bundles/care packages (since a lot of your followers also have EDs). Like, a small journal, bracelets, funny DVDs, something with an inspirational quote. You could get some of that stuff at like, a dollar store, maybe decorate it, wrap it up nicely, and sell that? Idk. I'm trying to give you real suggestions since you had the guts to come here and ask.
No. 82638
>>82592Well you totally can have such a hobby. Look, I don't know about the stickers thing - seems lame to me. (then again, I have a friend who sells her scrapbooking crap and I can't even figure out that because it all looks like junk to me)
But the bracelets can be cute. If one thing doesn't work, try another. That's how it goes.
Sometimes you have to build up a variety of things before people find it appealing. Like in Target - there isn't just one color of bath towels, there's a
wall full of colors.
No. 82746
>>82633Exactly! Distractions and little self soothing activities are great when they're used in addition to other healthy coping skills. But Ashley just avoids dealing with the actual issues and instead uses kawaii whatever as an escape so she doesn't have to deal with reality.
That is not productive and frankly unless you were in the hospital I would NOT buy anything knowing it was funding your binge food addiction.
No. 82776
>>82769I'd still buy it even if it was for binge food, because she'd be earning that money and therefore allowed to spend it however she wants. It's the begging for binge food that bothers me, not the fact that she has an addiction. I see things a little differently because I've been around a lot of people with addictions, and once they actually start earning their own money they often start to change.
Ashley, I'll support you in your endeavor too.
No. 82807
>>82645Yeah but the first thing to do is acknowledge that you do have a problem.
A person with depression goes out and does these thingd because they are aware they have a problem or obstacle they must overcome in order to be functional members of society and in order to improve their current life situation. One of the symptoms of depression is lack of motivation which is often mistaken for laziness, and it takes a lot of balls to get out of bed and go outside to do something as trivial as buying groceries.
Doing these things in order to improve your life isn't escaping from the issue, but rather facing it and overcoming it through leaving your comfort zone and regaining the motivation you lost.
It's not going to be a positive change for Ashley if she uses that money to go and buy binge food. She needs to acknowledge the issue at hand instead of trying to escape it because otherwise she won't recover.

Yustas seems a bit clueless though, like either he is actually kinda dim or he's just playing stupid after contributing to Erika's illness. Everything Erika has said about Yustas just makes it seem like he's not the best person to be around.

I don't know why people here would even consider helping Ash in some way considering all the really crappy, horrible things Ash has done and said over the years.
No. 82890
>>82871There's a big difference between
talking about doing something and
actually doing it. She'll also have to learn some basic skills and do you really think she could be fucked to do that? She'd have to churn out a lot of crap to profit from this.
It's probably something she's going to talk about with her imaginary therapist. The idea of a job. This is her idea of a job. From it she'll gain "independent living". It's all a dream.
No. 82908
>>82890Because saying outright "fuck her, I won't support anything she does" immediately gives her an excuse not to even try.
If she were to actually do something to try and earn money
then I could decide whether or not to support it. But I'm not going to be the one to say, "you're fucked no matter what you do, so don't even try."
No. 82909
>>82907I read through that blog and I'm confused by her description of her "binges":
"alright, last night i promised myself i wouldn't
binge.. but today at 9:30 i went out of contol..
hmm.. i'm going to see how many calories i've had::
milk w/water= 100 cal.
juice= 100 cal.
accidentially swallowing= 100 cal.
total= 300 cal.
okay, i can't eat the rest of the night, and i'll keep you
posted as to how my night goes."
Um, since when is 300 calories considered a binge?
No. 82967
>>82858This. I don't believe she's actually changed unless she acknowledges all the shit she's done and apologizes to the people she screwed over to try to male amends. She still doesn't see that she's done anything wrong and shows no remorse or responsibility for her actions.
With her manipulative tendencies how could you trust her to handle your money? Would you give Ashley your shipping address knowing what happened when she had Erika's phone number? She still hasn't admitted to much less apologized for all the disgusting things she's done so she's still exactly the same.
No. 83014
>>82974Anon, I think you're being incredibly optimistic. If Ash really does have BPD, it is an incredibly difficult thing to treat. There aren't even any approved medications for it.
Also if Ash did get help for her BPD she would have to get treated for her ED too. Seeing as she is unwilling to do so, there's no way for her to change.

>>83122Before she made it private it was mostly stuff like cartoon t-shirts, beanie babies, small accessories that you can get at Hot Topic, just cheap stuff.
Most of it was new, which makes me wonder why she has so much extra stuff she never used when she complains about being broke. I'm guessing it's hoarding or rejected gifts from other people. Or clothes she bought for herself that are too big and she can't get a ride to the store to return.
If she's going to do something sketchy like have her store on Instagram she can at least use PayPal this time instead of losing people's money in the mail and leaving them shit out of luck.
No. 83132
>>83113Ugh, no. Why an Instagram shop? If she's selling new or used stuff that she has laying around, then why not eBay it?
If she's making stuff to sell, why not Etsy?
Yeah, nevermind. I take back anything I said about this being a good idea. The only reason to run an Instagram shop is because there's no accountability/no responsibility.
Ashley, if you read this, you're just setting yourself up for failure and to feel worse about yourself. Responsible people sell on the sites I mentioned above. If you fail to give good customer service, there won't be repercussions from Instagram, but you'll burn any goodwill you have with your followers. WHY?

There were a couple people offering advice about how to handle her store and explaining exactly how to use PayPal and she just ignored them.
Even after one of her customers lost money and couldn't do anything any it Ashley still hasn't learned. Then again maybe she knows exactly what she's doing and she wants to be free of accountability so when she fucks up there's nothing her customers can do other than report to Instagram.

>>83208Hey, Ash. In one of the first threads I told you how to go about getting Medicaid and EBT, and I sent a similar message to your original Tumblr. You thanked m for that. I'm curious as to whether or not you've taken any steps to completing that.
I have EBT, and I'm a NEET living with my mother. She buys the groceries, so I give her my card for her to buy them. I'm sure that at least your mother would appreciate having some extra money to buy food with.
Go here:
http://www.myflorida.com/accessflorida/When you're filling out the forms, you are filling them out ONLY FOR YOURSELF. You are not putting in any of your mother's information. Since you have no income, you are guaranteed to get maximum EBT benefits as well as Medicaid.
It's really simple, and I can help if you have any questions. I swear to god I did it in like 15 minutes and now I have medical treatment and money to buy food.
No. 83225
>>83215How to go to the bank:
- Get your ID.
- Bring something else with your name on it, like a piece of mail or a prescription pill bottle.
- Take a cab or get a ride.
- It might be easiest if your mom comes with you, but you don't necessarily need her.
- Wait in line. It might be a long wait, so you're going to want your wheelchair or a walker if you have one.
- When you get up to the teller, ask if you can open a bank account.
- They might ask you to wait a few minutes for a different person to get you set up.
- The person will ask for your ID, your name, your address, whether or not you have a job (doesn't matter, just be honest and say you're going to get one), etc.
- Voila! You'll have a bank account.
No. 83227
>>83208The thing to remember is, the people at the bank
want you to open an account. They may think whatever they think about you, but they want your business. Google it ahead of time, collect the things you need, choose a branch near you, and go.
The clerk that helps you, tell her right away that you're new at this. She'll go slow.

No. 83245
>>83228If you are between jobs, I assume you are unemployed. File for Medicaid as an unemployed person, meaning you'll write in $0 income. If you have any bank accounts with $2000 or over, you will not be eligible. I personally wouldn't recommend filing that you have any more than $500, but you can't lie about it. Also, when it comes to writing out what medical expenses you have, go absolutely crazy with it. Write out every little thing you can think of, including the frequent doctor trips you need to make to assess your condition or anything. List not just diabetes, but any medical concerns you have, cumulatively. At the end you have a chance to write like 800 characters as to any additional information you need the people reviewing your case to know; talk about how you have diabetes and can't get treatment and could die, etc..
Now, once you become employed, chances are you will no longer be eligible for Medicaid. But you can cross that bridge when you get to it.
Fill it out ASAP, m8.

>>83464Advising her to get a bank account so she can use PayPal isn't for her benefit. After all the comments explaining to Ashley that opening a business in her condition without being in treatment is not a good idea, she went ahead and said she's doing it anyway. She'll open shop either way, but with PayPal her customers will at least have more protection than if they send her money orders.
And you can call them stupid for sending her money but they're mostly young or they're vulnerable. So if she's going to do it anyway might as well make it more secure so people don't get totally screwed.

As far as I know dentists are mandated reporters, if someone is a danger to themselves or others, they must report it or they could lose their license to practice. The only conclusion I can come to is that she's been declared terminal or SOMETHING along those lines..

No. 83583
>>83575It's an uncommon situation so people wouldn't immediately be able to determine if they can legally commit her even though they can tell she's obviously not all there mentally or physically. It would have to be done in court, which requires either one family member or three non relatives to petition for a Baker act.
For urgent cases it's law enforcement that gets called out to Baker act someone and they're not mental health experts. They can mess up and Baker act people who shouldn't be and vice versa. And that's for things like immediate suicide threat. They're not equipped to assess how anorexic you have to be before it's considered an emergency.
A psychologist could file a petition to have her involuntarily committed to long term care, but since her therapist is either imaginary or incompetent that won't happen.
No. 83584

>>83581Exactly, maybe being a terminal case would take some of the attention off her? So much of her attention comes from people wanting to see her 'recover' and coming out as a hopeless case would be far less appealing to Tumblr fags. I'm just doubtful because you think it would be brought up at least by accident or by a second party.
I do think there is a deeper reason as to why she says she's 'different' though. I don't think she's different because she's a snowflake, I think she's different because there are factors about her health complicating an already complicated case that we are not aware of.

Though I doubt her mother is nearly as bad as she is made out to be, it doesn't matter anymore because Ashley, legally, is an "adult".
She can cry about alleged abuse or neglect or whatever that makes you do us hand such, but no one at the bank or store or post office is going to give a fuck about that. As an adult she is expected to do certain things to not sit around and wait for someone to save her and take care of her, but to get up and take steps to fix herself.
I live with a horrifically abusive father my entire life, with the typical manipulating abuser type situation. I have 7 psychiatric conditions including binge-purge anorexia, I lost 170 lbs in just one year because of it, I was weak as fuck and emaciated. But I worked 45+ hours a week for two years and at age 20 I got the fuck up out of there, because no one is gonna take excuses no matter how bad they seem.
I'm still extremely sick but that's not stopping me from doing shit. I pay rent. I don't have a license but I'm working on that. I work at Starbucks, attend therapy several times a week (contemplating inpatient again), in the process for SSI, I receive food stamps, and I'm about to start college this summer. It doesn't matter how bad someone's baggage is, and yeah everyone suffers differently, but it is NEVER an excuse. That's the harsh reality of the world. Please wake up Ash.

typical scenario being
>father abandons familyash feels unwanted / worthless / has no control of her life
>mother has to take up the slack of having no husband, works more to support herself and child, stressed out, feeling shitty herself because her husband is a dead beat asshole thus can't give ash attention, possibly acts impatient with her or has a short temper due to miseryas feels neglected, bitter and hateful toward her mother, again feels like she has no control, again feels like people she cares about don't care about her so she becomes avoidant of all relationships, starts acting out for attention (camwhores on /b/) eventually becomes annorexic for the feeling of control and the attention

A search turned up that she used to live in Vero Beach, FL. Which is in Indian River County. A civil court search turned up a child support case between a Rebecca Isaacs and a Michael Weist, first filed in 1997, when Ashley would've been 7. On Nov 24th, 2008 (shortly after her 18th birthday) there's a "PLEASE CEASE CHARGING AND ADJUST DOR TERMS". And then later a declaration of emancipation.

She has signs of borderline regardless of how intelligent she is, and her mother has BPD too so there's family history. Plus the childhood trauma and self harm associated with BPD.
On her old Tumblr she said her IQ score went up but that could just be from being tested so many times throughout her life and just getting better at taking the test. Either way I've never heard of someone not being diagnosed with a personality disorder because of IQ. I have no idea about the DID though. I think she just needs validation so she fudges numbers and stats, but obviously she's still very sick.
And even though she seems clear-headed she's definitely not so she might get confused about things. I had no idea her physical state was as bad as these updates are saying. I don't think even she realized how much damage there was.

And child support continues up until 24.
That's why I think that has more to do with discontinued child support payments, or her mom being fed up with taking care of her or something. If they were milking the government, the mom could actually be paid more for having a dependent, disabled child under her roof, but like I think it was mentioned Ash would HAVE to be in some sort of treatment or would've been committed if she were not emancipated.

She refused to let me put my client in a long term state facility on the grounds that those places were "evil" and she "wasn't going to send her daughter to such a horrible place". I explained state hospitals are not like they were in the 70s and it really was in her daughters best interest. But no go. and its not bc she really thought they were evil, its bc without the checks for both of her adult children, she wouldn't have been able to pay the mortgage and other bills. I could see ash's mom thinking "she can't be saved at this point. might as well let her enjoy her last months/year at home as best she can..and i can't afford to lose that SSI $$ either…" ←itd be a selfish/fucked up move, but its very possible.

Once she got to a BMI that was at least double digits, one of the programs known for dealing with extreme cases could take her. but that would be a long way down the road. Refeeding for Ash would be a long and dangerous process.

>>84949I took a break from the Internet today too. It was such a pleasant day in South Florida – a lovely, cool breeze; warm and perfectly cloudless. I went down to the beach and had a nice walk through the sand, sat in the sun on a towel and read a book, and ate a little salad with goat cheese and a cappuccino in a cafe by the water.
You see, I have days like this often, because even though I'm a poor mentally ill NEET, I'm still in good enough health to be able to go around and have a normal day in the sun. I can casually order some things to eat, even though I don't have a lot of money to spare. I can walk around, feeling the simple joy of exercise, and feel the breeze on my skin. I can enjoy reading in spite of having diminished mental clarity from my illness. I can view the people existing alongside me, all of them experiencing this pleasant day just as I had, and have empathy for their situations, and wonder how their lives compare to my own.
I can't imagine how pitiful of an existence Ashley has to lead to find time away from the Internet 'foreign and isolating,' that she would 'panic at what she missed.' How desperate she must be to read about herself, and how pathetic that she's so complacent, that she finds that a fulfilling existence instead of unbearable stasis.
But yet, I don't pity her from being denied these simple pleasure of life that I can so easily go out and experience for myself. She was once a perfectly healthy girl with no physical disabilities that would impair her. She has brought all of this upon herself, and I can laugh at her for that. I can point out countless people that had lives far worse than her own that didn't throw their lives out the window, destroying as many people as possible in their path.

>>85493I wasn't pitying her, jeez. It's also pretty hard with something like an eating disorder to WANT to recover. Like, if she wants to waste away, let her I guess, but just because she's a dick doesn't mean her mental illness isn't valid.

No. 85809
>>85666That's completely different. Ashley's m had had to raise her, she's an adult now. An adult who does not wish to get better. Those are the type of people that deserve an ultimatum because Ashley is sinking herself and her mother.
Yustas chose to marry Ericka for better or worse etc., etc. they are in a union. They're a family with their children. That is your "new" family when you grow up. If you give a shit, you understand that you are in a partnership with each other and need to support one another.
No. 85832
>>85809Ashley's mom seemingly made a terrible job with raising her child. and not wanting to get better is a part of her disease. I can totally understand her situation.
Erika is an adult too, actually she is like 4 or 5 years older than ashley, and she has children she is responsible for. but she rather makes a show of her life on the internet, purges her family's money and asks only help when she gets scared of dying. I'm glad she asked help, but she is def not an idol.

https://instagram.com/questtorecovery/ is always having violent fights with her mother over her ED. She's another fake recovery account - acts like she wants to get better but if she gains an ounce she freaks out and restricts. She's only 16 and really not a bad person, but it's maddening reading her account so I can't even imagine what parents of ED children put up with… it sounds like absolute hell. That chick I listed refuses to sit down unless she's sleeping… she won't even go places in a car if it's beyond a certain distance because she'll be sitting too long and feel guilty about it.
So anyway, the on-topic connection here is that that girl isn't as sick as Ashley (though pretty sick - 75lbs) and she has a horrid relationship with her mother… imagine what Ashley's mom is going through.

I thought some of her being an asshole to her mother is teenage stuff but one of her posts described terrorizing her mother to the point where she was afraid of her. She sounds like a younger version of Ashley.
She always buys artificial processed diet food, because she just "prefers" it so it's not disordered! Because having a BMI of 14 and eating Lean Cuisine isn't disordered?
She also bakes for everyone and doesn't eat any of it, which is textbook anorexia, but gets mad when someone points it out. When anyone gently confronts her about disordered behaviors and you can tell they're walking on eggshells she
freaks the fuck out. Ashley jumps on anyone who tries to confront her, of course.

How can you see her naked, passing out, seizuring, having no energy and thinking "totes fine". Even disregarding ED's I'd see my partners body and think "holy fuck he looks like he needs the hospital ASAP" and I'd go to an appointment with him to get to the bottom of the issue.

>>87191Anorexia has both genetic and ENVIRONMENTAL
triggers. Yes, there are tons of wannarexics, but there are also tons that are genuinely anorexic and wouldn't be if it wasn't for social media.
Social media allows more competition. Who's the skinniest, who's got the most fans, who's best at convincing people that they're not anorexic?
Social media enables more attention seeking behavior. You can easily get hundreds of people telling you that they're jealous of you, that you're so strong, that you're so beautiful.
Social media allows greater control. Post hundreds of pictures of food, and countless people will give you ass pats, telling you that you're so strong and inspirational. Sure, the people around you may know you're full of shit, but your internet fans don't. They'll never see you pass out, they'll never smell your eu de puke, they'll never see you looking fat or flabby. You control how the internet world sees you.
And, most importantly, social media gives vulnerable people a million
triggers with just a few taps on a keyboard. Someone with anorexic tendencies can easily look up thinspo and become entrenched in it. It can be that little push they need to go off the deep end.

>>87889right. Genetics load the gun, environment pulls the
trigger, but i think you missed my point. Those girls i mentioned, and a million more like them, DONT have those genetics. They're just munchausens using the internet to get attention, and sometimes $$ and gifts, like that nancybratt bitch. (which could also be considered malingering bc theres monetary gains in addition to attention).
Sure, theres girls who do have the genetic predisposition and social media "pulled the
trigger", but Emily/ember/felice aren't in that group. They have to reply on photoshop to look anorexic, bc they aren't capable of starving themselves the way they would if they were actually anorexic.
No. 87948
>>87889"they'll never see you pass out"
girls like emily and ember never will pass out!! because they eat enough, because they're not anorexic. they're naturally thin girls and they use that to their advantage when portraying themselves as fragile sick girls online. They may not have developed munchausens syndrome without social media, but they never have and never will develop anorexia, bc they don't have the genetic predisposition.

>>89583I've seen that docu, but it doesn't look a bad place? There again, I've no idea what to expect from an ED centre. NHS psych units are basic, but as said here
>>89586it gives you the basic tools to help you deal with whatever your illness is. I expect a place like the Priory would be nice for good food, nice room, but not sure the results would be any better than NHS although it's more intensive at posh places for the tired and emotional.
>>89653I'm glad someone mentioned the countouring problem. You know when it was making her face look more hollow? She said she's a newb at make up, but she makes a good job of it.
No. 89794
>>89792No, but generally speaking she's a secondary character in this bullshit. I don't think any of us do have pure intentions. We just want information to discuss. It tends to sway in Erika's favor though and I don't forsee that letting up if she continue to do well.
She may have a couple of douchebags trolling around but not nearly the amount that Ashley has and will only continue to gain.

>>89810Mother of God.
Erika, that post absolutely made my month, and maybe even my last six months. I'm glad that the time I've spent on here could actually mean something to someone else and help someone, and I'm very glad that you're mature and level-headed enough to see this site for what it is – just a bunch of women having some laughs, and getting to be brutally blunt, something we rarely get the chance to do in our lives.
I also have to say, I was talking about the THIN documentary a few threads back – and with one of my friends who actually went there and had the worst experience of their life – and I was minutes away from making an Instagram account to let you know how terrible Renfrew is before I read you decided against going there.
Man, I'm just so happy right now. You fucking rock, Erika.
No. 89819
>>89810>>89815Oh!! that was our conversation she screencapped. She's smart! I never mentioned why I started following her but I was also the anon who posted about how she was staying in Denver after speaking with her so maybe she put it together?
Sorry for forwarding the info, it was out of excitement, Erika. You're a sweetheart and I'm sure many of us are honored to have been any help at all.
No. 89873
>>89787>>89788Erm…I was that anon and not a dick, thanks. I've never had ED treatment because I don't have an ED. I'm also in the UK where these recovery places barely exist. Excuse me for living in a country where the system's so fucked you get put onto a psych ward if you have an ED. All I know about Renfew is the Thin docu, and to me it looked better than the non-treatment we have here.
Also, I pitched in with a donation to Erika, so enough of the holier than thou because you have ~experience~ of ED recovery centres.
I wouldn't be a bitch if someone outside the UK made a (yes) misinformed comment about the kind of treatment I have for my own (non ED) mental health illness.

>>89950What? Like anyone here knows everything they talk about? Admit it. We all talk shite. Constantly. Some anon thinks she's got the upper hand because she's one of the ED ~community~. If anyone knew what they were talking about there'd be fuck all on the internet.
I never say my bad. It's like something a 3 year old would say.
Why apologise for saying someone's a twat for putting Erika off treatment. It looked like that was her only option and not so anon was putting a downer on it. What if that was the only place she could go to? Ffs, I know this is all of a sudden the Erika Fan Club because she comes here, but just because some random's all I'M HER FRIEEEND, doesn't mean I'm going to hold her to my bosom lovingly. The anon needs to stop being so high and mighty.
Yes, it's auto sageing, but I can't think of a pic for the header, so someone else can deal with it.

No. 89970
>>89966That wasn't aimed at you specifically. It's just a pisser that Erika's taken a bashing in these threads, some nastiness has been spoken about her but now the Ashley thread's full of Erika love. That's A GOOD THING. I like her too, but nobody was being so kind before we knew she looked at the thread. It's gone a bit OTT.
I'm not bitter about anything. Well, pissed off about being shot down for not knowing how Murica works maybe. No bitterness towards anyone except people who think you need a degree or first hand experience to give a comment on a subject.
So, no, I wasn't attacking you…more pissed off that there's going to be a lot of two-facedness going on now.

>>89941"warrior" …what the actual fuck are you talking about? i have never, not once, referred to myself as a warrior. And i really can't stand all that "recovery warrior/ED soldier" bullshit. All you had to do was apologize for making false assumptions. I don't need to be "blocked", I'm not a bad influence. I actually just did an eval with erc and might join E. Don't be an ass to me for no reason. I've been to Renfrew, it IS horrible and everyone seeking ED treatment deserves better.
the NHS might not be as "fancy" as some places here, but at least you won't be in massive debt. I don't have insurance, erc will cost me $1,100 a day. And i could be wrong, but it seems like you guys get a lot more leave and the ability to keep electronics (which may be good or bad, depends on the person. ash, for example, would benefit from being cut off from the internet if hell froze over and she went to treatment) over there. The grass is always greener, i guess.

This vision of loveliness has been scamming and begging for over twenty years. Said she was dying—for 6 years until confronted. Nancy and her unemployed family have gotten lap tops, wide screen tv, clothes, last trip to the ocean, pets, well you get the idea. All her accounts are now private, likely because someone threatened to go to the authorities to investigate this family of grifters.
