Missed Zoey and Moose Thread

[aly]

I wasn't hurt by her lies at all since I had suspected them from the beginning, so I've just felt relief that this is out in the open. Now that I've read about poor Julie's feelings and that awful website about Kay, I am heartbroken for you guys that got hurt. I know I felt really betrayed with the Jessica situation and I wasn't even as close to her as Julie was to "Brooke".

Julie and Kay - Keep your heads up and don't let that person hurt you. Julie, I am so sorry "she" fooled you like that You're a very sweet girl and I hope you don't lose trust in people. Kay, she did a TERRIBLE terrible thing to you and you're being so mature about it. Just let it slide off your back because her opinion means nothing.

guster girl here. what a sad heart this person must have.

[popcornbird]

Oh boy. Another lie. Julie, I don't believe its even possible to have DSL access from an airplane. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I truely don't believe its possible. Maybe there's a way to connect your laptop to an air phone and get connection, but DSL? Nope.....no way. I travel often, and if there were DSL on airplanes, I would be on PT the whole flight. I really don't believe it exists.

Julie, what time did she PM you saying that? When she PM'd me the pics, she told me she was already in CA. She said the dogs were there too. The way she said it seemed so fake and made-up for some reason.

I think its impossible to be on DSL on an airplane as well. I also know she couldn't be sending messages as she's landing because they make you turn off all electronics before landing. Not to mention the whole deal of gathering up your laptop and belongings in enough time to exit the plane.

[Kfamr]

Yeah, and since when does someone go on the internet so often while moving?




Thanks Aly, to be honest all of this has made me "LMAO" to say the least. It is rather sad, but I had no idea she didn't like me THAT much. I never even did anything to her or said anything to her. It was all over and argument between her friend and I. It's probably bad that I laugh over it all, but I can't help it. ;x

I just moved 1 street down and I couldn't come online for days! She's *supposedly* moving from Florida to California, and she can come online all the time with no problem.......even from the plane. LOL!

If you look on top of the PM, it says 12:01. So, around noontime.

I also have this one, for those of you who were talking about the landing issue:

We're about 15 minutes from landing, which means that I probably should be turning off my computer right now. Of course, that also means that I'll be whipping it out again as soon as we get in the rental car, lol.

Yeah, the pups are in cargo right now. I'm worried sick, but I'm hoping they're fine. I told Josh we could drive since we'll need our cars out there anyway, but he said there was no way he was going to drive that far for that long with two wild pups. So, instead, he had the cars brought out there with our stuff. Whatever, it's his money ... I made him pay for it. haha.

Well I should probably go but I'll be PMing ya ASAP!!

So, this was about an hour and a half after sending the first one. Like I said, between the one I first posted, and this one, we were chatting back and forth.

Thanks, Aly. Live and learn I guess.

I wonder what Julie and amber have to say about this...they were her/his friend.

I wasn't sure if i was going to even post or not.. But after considering it, i decided that i should voice my opinion to get everything that's inside out..

I have been away and haven't been able computer for about 3 or 4 days. I just had julie explain the whole thing to me. And, to tell you the truth im completley appauled.. In the beginning, i did feel that brooke was a little fishy.. But of course, i gave her the benefit of the doubt.. We talked more and more and i thought that just maybe she wasn't a fake. And that she truly was the person who she told us she was. After having looked over this thread and reading the pms everyone got, i figured that brooke and I were really good friends, so there should be a pm for me. So i went to the bottom "Private Messages CamCamPup33 - You have 0 new message(s) since your last visit. (You have 0 unread messages and 35 total messages in all your folders.)" I wondered why she never sent that to me, and then saw a *READ* pm from her titled 'Weeeell'. First of all i haven't even been on the computer or checked my pm's so im wondering why it said it was read, -off subject-.. Anyway this is what the pm read..

Well, I've been debating about posting these since I know a few people think I'm a 'fraud' and quite frankly, I don't want to start a picture thread of my pups and get some smartass comment from someone. Soooo ... I've decided to send these to the few people I feel haven't completely doubted me ...as stupid as that sounds. lol. You're on the 'good list' so I sent 'em to ya. lol.

Sorry for the poor quality, I got a friend to scan them in for me and well ... his scanner isn't too great. And after uploading them, it only made some of them worse.

I have quite a few more, so if you'd like to see 'em, just let me know.

Yep, so here ya go ----->

Like I said, I have a few more but I didn't want to flood the message, lol.

Hope you liked!

Very simalar to most of the ones everyone else got.. I just really can't believe she did this. I thought i knew her well enough to trust her.. This happened with Jessica and ChiRen too.. It just so happen, julie, kay and i were the ones drilling chiRen with the questions and got it out of her that she never had that dog.. -Off topic again-.. I just don't know what to say.. That really is a sad thing for her to just lie about whether or not she had dogs..

-Sigh- Im just really upset, i thought she and i were good friends, and i never thought she would just do that to me, or for that matter anyone else.. I really believed she wasn't lying after getting to know her.. I kind of wish i didn't get to know her, then i wouldn't be so hurt.. Like julie said, you just don't know who to trust anymore..

I missed the thread completely on ChiRen, that just came as a shock to me too.

Brooke sent me the same pm, Amber. I had already heard from a friend that there was a possibilty that she was faking. What did she do, go into your pm boxes somehow? If she did that, then how did she get your passwords? The more I hear about HER, the more confused I become. There is so much I just don't understand.

How long was she a member here? Why didn't I suspect anything? I just have so many questions, I am confused on which ones to ask.

On chiRen, I just noticed she had stopped posting, and wondered where she went. I just don't know anything! I am still thinking I must be the stupidest person on the face of this earth, not to have seen anything, but I didn't know what eveybody was looking for! I think everybody on this board is just so much smarter than me!

I would even pm her and ask her how she was doing after her dad died! I mean I know what its like to lose a dad. And I felt so sorry for her that she had lost her dad!

I wish somebody would explain all this to me, I am slow in understanding what was going on, how do you recognize a fraud?

Why did she hate Kay so much that she would actually do a sick thing like put up a website that would hurt Kay. How old was this person. Is she the one that deleted some of Kays threads, that Kay had started? And how? God I am so confused, and feel really dumb, that I didn't see. But then I didn't know what to look for. I thought she was well like by everybody! When did it all start?

Willie,

Who knows how old that person is. We only know "her" lies and have no clue of the true person behind "Brooke".

The frauds have been pretty easy for me to spot. The only one I was fooled by was ChinookCrazy and that was because I didn't pay much attention to her.

You asked how to tell if its a fraud. Well, Brooke was a member here for a really long time and had managed to only post one pic of "Moose" and none of Zoey. In this day and age, that is really weird because she could have gotten a disposable camera and developed the pics on CD. A few people suggested it to her and she said she'd do it, but never did. Also, she kept saying she would go to meet PT people in Florida and California, but she'd come up with some excuse at the last minute. She never really talked about her dogs much, she mainly posted in controversial threads. She joined this board looking for fights like a heat seeking missle. I remember being shocked at how eager she was to jump to a fight when she barely had 10 posts! Also, all of her stories about being married in Greece, her parents buying her an expensive house in the Hamptons, etc etc etc .. all that sounded like a bunch of bologna. If she had that much money, yet didn't have the money to "fix" her "broken" digital camera, that's just too weird. There were a lot of other things that didn't add up at all. Also, the Lab she posted in those pics is not the same Lab she claimed was Moose (that one pic that was in her sig for awhile).

It was easy to tell with Chiren as well. But this isn't about her so I won't go into that. We also caught someone else (forgot their name), but they posted pics of their dog and every picture was a different size and different quality. When you looked closer, you could tell it wasn't even the same dog. That person was kind of lazy because we searched on Google and found all those pics. I think Brooke at least was smarter. She looked long and hard for pics she could pass off as her own, and I'm pretty sure she wasn't dumb enough to get them off Google.

IF she lied about her father dying, I have no sympathy for her and I think that is one of the most evil things a person can do. You do not lie or joke about death. That is WRONG.

[dukedogsmom]

Just another one to add to the growing list of trolls.

[K9soul]

The dogs also might have actually been someone's dogs she knew, like a neighbor's, but then why not present "Zoey" as a male then... I just don't know. I can't really try to think like how she or he did. I actually didn't really see the pictures until after her nature was revealed, but I DO remember thinking that the lab in those pictures looked different from the signature lab I had seen. It looked smaller with a more slender head, maybe even a lab mix.

I just wish people would not feel stupid because they didn't catch it. Sure I see a lot of things now that were tell tale signs, but I just wasn't looking for it before, had never imagined someone would do it.

I feel the worst for those whom she made her friends and who trusted her and felt something for her. How horribly cruel, to destroy someone's trust and friendship that way . It is worse, in a way, then just being outwardly hateful to someone.

[primabella]

Thanks Aly, I was about to say all this.

Willie,

Is she the one that deleted some of Kays threads, that Kay had started?

I seriously doubt this since only Kay or a PT administrator can delete her threads. (correct me if I'm wrong, someone ) And I don't believe there was a thread about ChiRen. She was caught so just disappeared from the board.

I think we should do our best and "not feed the trolls". Who wants to help me bury these threads and not give "Brooke" or these other past members any more attention.

[trayi52]

Aly, I know what you mean about not lieing about death. I really felt for her, because I knew what it was like to lose somebody like that. I still haven't got over my dad death and he has been gone since 97. I cried for her!

I know that I am a lazybones about posting pictures myself, so I guess I just figured she was lazy like me. So I just didn't look for that I suppose.

I still feel very foolish, the only thing I really noticed was that she seem to follow Kay around. I always wondered why she seem to just stalk Kay, and thought she really liked Kay, and then she started following Kay around and just start diagreements with Kay. I don't know, I guess, well, I'm just speechless and now depressed. To make light of the death of one's dad, just hurts. She made a fool out of me too! I am 51 years old, and should be smarter than that.

All I can say is... wow... Zoey is a Xander!!!
