One of the Cruelest Cons-An Adoption Scam

Melissa G. Christiansen

of the Maiden Rock, WI/Red Wing, MI area

scammed couples seeking to adopt pretending she was pregnant and wanting them to adopt her unborn child. She scammed both online and offline. When scamming online she made many fake identities, using photos and information of other women.

Many of these couples had Attorneys and/or Adoption Agencies and were working with Melissa for months before realizing they had been scammed. She had them decorate nurseries, purchase plane tickets, send her money, hire her an Attorney, pay her bills and re-paint nurseries all for her sick games.

She also scammed others pretending to have cancer. She received money and gifts from others who thought they were helping a dying woman. Marie uncovered her scams, found more victims and brought it to the attention of Law Enforcement and the Media.

Her scams are currently under investigation.
