why in the world would he blow his cover if this was an elaborate scam?

Because now "mrs vig" will have to take donations directly, and we feel bad she was with such a douche (plus shes "single" now which plays better). Its double the scam!

Thats what my wife said.

I'm not suggesting impropriety...I'm just saying it is not hard for anyone with sleuth skills to find Mr. Vig and Mrs. Vig and settle this in person.

I don't think this story is fake at all obv. Mr Vig is a much larger douchebag now because he is denying her of cancer treatment money!

um obv bc there wasnt much more money to be had by that, everyone who wanted to already donated, so this is a last ditch effort for some more cash

Considering the amount of potential money to be made here, I'd imagine it being no trouble to create this type of elaborate scam.

could you instead use these sleuth skills to try and verify the authenticity of the documents?

Well its possible that there is only one person and that he collected the money, blew it all, and is now scheming to get more. I doubt it, though.

There are 2p2ers everywhere. In the future, someone should meet up with person outside the internets and verify the claim in person. Then delivery should be made to the actual person in need.
