Williams couldn't believe he was interested in her, but he was.She says their messaging got more and more intense, and he wanted her to come to his fitness studio in New York. Unfortunately, first he had to go to Africa on a short assignment.That's when trouble developed.New friend needs money to get home"He said he was over there working as a fitness trainer on a contract," Williams said. "But he was stranded and needed a way to get home."He needed money fast -- specifically 0 for a plane ticket home from Africa. He promised to return the money to her as soon as he got back to the U.S.So a love-struck Williams wired it to him through MoneyGram, and figured he was on his way.But he soon messaged her again, saying the Republic of Benin, in West Africa, would not let him leave unless he paid his income taxes first."They won't let me go home because I owe ,500 in taxes," the trainer messaged her.Before Williams took the time to realize what she was doing, she said, "I sent him a total ,076."

A temporary truce between the United States and the Taliban has taken effect, setting the stage for the two sides to sign a peace deal next week. If successfully implemented, the weeklong "reduction in violence” agreement will be followed by the signing of the peace accord aimed at ending 18 years of war in Afghanistan and bringing U.S. troops home. That would wrap up America's longest-running conflict and fulfill one of President Donald Trump's main campaign promises. That agreement would be signed in Doha, Qatar, on February 29 and lead to the start of all-Afghan peace talks and a phased withdrawal of American troops.Photo: In this May 28, 2019 file photo, Suhail Shaheen, spokesman for the Taliban's political office in Doha, speaks to the media in Moscow, Russia.

A wedding is supposed to be the most beautiful day in a couple's life. But for thousands of couples this year, it's become a nightmare, because they have to cancel their reception, and couples are finding they can't get a refund due to the contract they signed months ago with their reception venue.Kristina Finley's dream wedding was scheduled for May 30, until COVID-19 and her governor changed her plans.Despite a state shutdown of big events, her mother, Becky Finley, said her daughter can't get her money back from her venue."She asked for a refund, and they said actually my daughter owed them the second half of the payment," Finley said.The wedding venue still has their ,500 deposit, half the total cost of the ,000 wedding and reception, the family said.It offered new dates next year, but Finley's daughter does not want to wait, and instead she has selected a small church wedding and backyard party for the original date."My daughter picked May 30, 2020. All the invitations, the pre-engagement announcements, everything had that date on it," Finley said. "And she said, 'I've been waiting a year for this, and I'm not going to reschedule.'"Rules vary by venueWhen it comes to weddings and other events, every event center has different rules.Some will give brides and grooms a refund if there is no other option, owner Drew Hester said.Drew Hester, owner of one hall, said that unlike many other halls, he has given full refunds to several brides, and he took the financial hit. "I just believe in karma. I believe in good," he said. "The emotional loss for them has been awful. You work with these brides for a year, and now they are devastated. And on top off that I am not going to say, 'You lost ,500, sorry.'"But many wedding contracts do not allow refunds; only credits toward a future date.What you can doForbes Magazine said many brides and grooms are facing thousands of dollars in losses this year due to canceled weddings. It suggests people:Request a refund as soon as possible; do not wait for the date to approach.Ask if you can get a discount for a smaller gathering, if they are still open.If they refuse a refund or discount, dispute the charge through your credit card if you paid the deposit that way.File a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.If all else fails, contact a lawyer, who for a few hundred dollars can examine the contract and send a letter to the center explaining that since this is an "act of god," the contract should be null and void.Finley hopes to get something back, and said her daughter is just heartbroken having to cancel her dream reception."It's what every little girl dreams of, and it just fell apart," she said,One other option: Some reception centers have gardens where you can move everything outdoors, and where, if allowed by local laws, you can still have that dream wedding.________________________Don't Waste Your Money" is a registered trademark of Scripps Media, Inc.
