Our Adoption was a Scam 

Watch Part 1 here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hfA92VZ-at4.html

Who thinks this is a crime and she should be charged 🙋‍♀️

Honestly can’t even wrap my head around why someone would do this. I am so sorry you had to go through another heartbreaking trial! My prayers are with you both! You’ll find your missing piece! ❤

Wow. This is not just a scammer, this is a literal abuser. I'm so glad you guys are okay now.

The fact that you two showed pictures and still blurred her face out just shows how kind hearted and wonderful you guys are. MY ASS would have put her face all over the internet. What a cruel human being - she needs help. So happy you two have your angel baby now; congratulations 💞

I'm heartbroken that this happened to you. Stay strong, your happily ever after will come and you will be amazing parents. Sending you big hugs

OK.... FIRST OFF..... THIS IS NOT YOUR FAULT! You shouldn't feel dumb. People do shady, awful things to good, kind-hearted, loving, genuine people all the time. Trust me, it says way more about her character than either of yours. I am so sorry you're hurting and going through this. You didn't do anything wrong & you will be the best parents ever! ❤️

Now I understand why you didn’t tell anyone until you physically had Story in your arms! I’m so happy for you. 💞

I just came from your official adoption video with Story. Seeing this I understand even more now why you waited to tell everyone till you had her. I’m so happy for y’all that you got your happy ending after doing through something so horrible. ❤️

We still can’t believe this happened. Sending you all our love

I have NEVER prayed HARDER for a couple to receive a baby or 2....don't lose HOPE y'all!!!

Who is here in 2024 and she has a beautiful baby girl story belle

Knowing that you posted this video just 5 days before your daughter was born makes me so emotional. There is always hope and a miracle can be on its way. So happy for you.

Bella I just wanted to let you know: you are not dumb. You are not stupid. You are a victim of someone’s horrible, disgusting, deceitful, and destructive behaviour. To prey on a couple so kind, so loving and innocent and who literally bent over backwards for anything is truly evil. I just want you to know that you are both very strong. You will get through this. You will get a beautiful child who will be so lucky to have you both as parents. I wish you both all the best, we are here for you guys ♥️

I am an adult adopted child (which I am so grateful for), and my adoptive parents specifically chose to go through a private attorney-which was a bit more difficult, but totally took away the ability for scammers to reach them. They were never told or contacted until everything was legally verified & signed. I think it’s something you should consider if that is available in your state. I hope your miracle comes soon and that your hearts heal even sooner❣️

I just discovered your channel and I was watching this video with my mother and she suddenly started crying. I always knew that she struggled with fertility but I never knew that she went through the same fake adoption processes. It’s truly heartbreaking and cruel that people can do stuff like this. They have absolutely 0 humanity in them

Who’s here after they adopted their beautiful daughter Story? 👇❤🥹 Edit: 149 likes!? AHHH TYSM THIS IS THE MOST IVE EVER GOTTEN

As an adopted child, please don’t give up. There are babies that need you and will be blessed to have you!!

No jail time would make up for the pain this woman caused. This is heartbreaking 💔 Glad you all are helping others. I’m sending you so much love and healing! Congratulations on the adoption of your new baby 🥰 💕

Now that we're all on the other side congratulations with your little daughter! You two have been through soo much! So proud of you! You're incredible! I'm sooooo glad it worked out🎉

Please please do NOT feel stupid for anything you did! As a person who gave a child up for adoption and did everything she did with you with the adoptive parents, PLEASE know it does exist!!! ❤️ It truly can be a magical experience! 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Praying so hard for this for you!

Just a suggestion. When you are ready, donate everything in the nursery and pull off the wallpaper. Don't leave anything in the room that would be a reminder of this trauma. When the time is right and you have a baby in your arms and signed adoption papers in your hand then bring in everything new. Don't worry about the room not being ready. Your family and friends will watch over you and bring your nursery vision to life. I hope that you will continue to talk to your family and friends about this traumatic experience. They are sometimes the best therapist you could have. Write a letter to this woman (you don't have to mail it) and purge everything that you feel onto that paper. Then take the letter outside and burn it. You might be amazed at how much better you feel. You or Dallin could read the letter aloud. You might want to have a few friends over when you do this. Those that truly have your back.

I had this happen 27 years ago. It was heartbreaking. However, we ended with the perfect baby!

I just found you guys from your daughters adoption and i just want to say your story is so beautiful. You guys are amazing people and deserve the world for what you have been through. So glad you guys got your beautiful baby girl after going through the storm ❤️

I'm lost for words... As a 29 year old man that has not cried for over 10 years this made me tear up a little. I am sorry for you guys. You showed who you are as people, and good things come to good people. Stay strong for eachother - your time will come.

I worked in infertility. I know this is hard. The only solice I can offer is that the journey you're taking is leading you to the baby that is meant for you ❤

Seeing this after you have your baby. I’m so happy for you that it all ended up working out even better than you could imagine.

I'm an adopted child. I'm 55 now. I love my adoptive parents dearly. I met my bio mother when I was 27. Don't ever stop doing what you're doing. There is a baby out there just waiting for you two.

Don’t let people say you “shouldn’t have celebrated early” … you guys were completely manipulated, she did a fantastic job at scamming you and the fact that you didn’t know isn’t your fault. I’m so sorry.

This is sick beyond measure. Can't imagine how hard it must have been for you and all those other families. No one should ever have to go through this. Thank you for shedding light and educating others on what is obviously such a difficult and sensitive topic for the both of you. But good things are ahead. Congratulations on your newest baby girl! Sending love and light 💙

Wow, I’m absolutely shocked as to how far she took it. You guys seem like great people , I’m glad you guys got Story , you guys deserve her so much ! Your great parents !

I usually am a silent follower. But I just have to say that what this person did is cruel, evil, and heartbreaking. Keeping you all in my prayers! Stay strong!!

I usually never comment but I just wanted to say how sorry I am. This is truly despicable and sickening. You guys will be such amazing parents and love your children with all your hearts. I hope you heal and get through this quickly. As an adopted child, I heard of cases like this, and this woman literally committed a crime legally and morally. Sending love and prayers for you both.

She got attention from this. People fawned over her and made her feel important and special. It’s sick. Use an agency with experienced case workers-it will save you a lot of a heartache. We’ve adopted five times-there were a few total scams that our agency recognized immediately. I’m sorry you had to go through this.

I’m so sorry! Everyone is here for you and we know it will all work out!

I genuinely can’t even wrap my mind over the fact that this happened to you. I am SO sorry Bella & Dallin. I literally cannot believe how cruel of a person this was to do to you.

I just want you to know- this isn’t a mistake and this isn’t on you. I’m adopted, I’ve been following your journey. And I’m so sorry this is happened to you, there is a baby for you. That baby just hasn’t found it’s way to you yet. ❤️ please hold your hearts and heads high, this isn’t on you

I discovered you by the adoption video and I found this video, that woman is a psychopath and a horrible person, I'm glad you have people around you to pick you up and smother you with love and that you've finally made your dream come true, you should take this to court so she gets reprimanded and can't do this again

I am so sorry! This is so unnecessarily heartbreaking and traumatizing. I can not imagine anyone more deserving of the beautiful experience you were presented with. You two will be the best parents when the time comes. The most kind, supportive and protective. Please remember how loved and supported you are by so many around the world. I just had my first daughter and the process has been so beautiful and I cherish all the memories, love and happiness during my pregnancy. I can’t imagine having it all ripped away along with the babies. I know in my heart you guys will have another chance to re do this experience and feel the same happiness and peace as the first time. Let yourself feel the pain and hurt now but remember how much you have to look forward to. Your kids will be so lucky to have you! My heart hurts for you but I am so excited at the same time knowing what the world has in store for your future family. It will all be worth it one day!

As a twin girl who was adopted this just hurts my heart so much for you!! I just bawled during your last video thinking of how my parents acted when they got us! Don’t give up please!! Your babies will come!❤️

This is insane. We not only have to worry about identity scams, dating scams, housing scams, but now we have to worry about adoption scams. Thank you for sharing your story to help others.

So brave to share. As a birth parent in an open adoption, I am grieving with you all. Praying for double the blessing.

I’m so sorry that you went through this and have shared your story. She’s clearly a sociopath, a master liar and manipulator. Please be gentle on yourselves, the lengths that she went to and the depths of her lies is just stunning. I agree with the others, her photo needs to be posted online to prevent other families from falling into her web of deceit and pain. And now you have your beautiful Story Belle, a precious little angel. I’m so happy for you both and wish you a lifetime of love, joy and adventure.

please do not give up!! there are plenty of toddlers and teens out there that desperately need homes!! these scams always revolve around babies because they know most adoptive parents want all the milestones

Dear Bella and Dallin - There’s no understanding her behavior - it’s sociopathic - and I’m so sorry that she preyed on you. But you will adopt - when you hold your baby in your arms it will literally erase this horrific experience. Sending ❤

First of all, I love y’all and I’m so broken for y’all. I can’t imagine how this would feel to go through, but I’m so grateful that you shared this story. My husband and I have been married five years ourselves, and we struggle with infertility as well. He has a rare genetic mutation that makes him infertile, so we’re down to two options: 1, ivf/artificial insemination or 2: adoption. I’m grateful to know to look for scams in adoption should we choose that route. I’m so sorry for your loss. A loss of a child, even though the pregnancy was never real, is still a loss when you believe you would be adding someone to your family. I can’t do much, but you’re in my prayers.

I am so sorry for what you've been through but I can see Story Belle is totally worth it all! It's really brave of you to share these difficult times and I know you are helping so many others going through similar struggles. My older brother was adopted at birth so I've always thought it is such a wonderful thing. I have lost 2 babies and totally relate to what you said about not being able to go into the nursery. I went through that process when I lost my Zoey and I know how much strength it takes to push past it. You are such a warrior princess Bella!

I don’t usually comment on videos, I’m what’s called a silent follower. I’m so sorry that you both are going through this! Can’t believe how cruel some people are in this world. I know that our lives have a purpose and you both have such an amazing life journey. It amazes me how strong even in the hardest times of your life you both are. One thing I’ve learned is Gods timing doesn’t work with the worlds schedule. Something I herd this week; “God is never late, Never early but He is always on time.” Peace, hope & strength I pray over you both. Don’t loose hope on your perfect piece 👼🏼💕🙏🏻

The amount of shit this couple has gone through is heart-wrenching. Words cannot describe how they must feel after going through hell and back so many times, it’s just sickening that some twisted, disgusting excuse for a woman has topped everything off after so many failed pregnancy attempts. These two are so incredibly resilient and strong, please do not give up on your dreams, all of this will be worth it once you have your missing piece of your beautiful family. I’m wishing you, and everyone struggling to have children the very best and that something never happens like this again

Watching this after your newer vids, as hard as this was to go through it seems this all happened for a reason. You both followed your heart and prepared for these angles and then after it fell through you selflessly followed the promting to donate all the items such as cribs, car seats, stroller to the mother who was expecting twins and as I saw in that video while awaiting her to arrive to surprise her you got the call about your now daughter. How crazy is that??? God knew you were both strong enough to go through this and I believe he used you to bless that other mother whom you donated to. As a reward for your obedience to him he wasted no time and blessed you immediately for following his guidance. Congratulations on your daughter, you are both do deserving of such a blessing. I'm also so happy that you have such a supportive network of family and friends❤.

It’s so hard to stay on alert when your emotions are so wrapped up in the excitement. I just got kittens from a rescue and thankfully they are healthy, but I realized afterwards how trusting I had been. They could have easily pawned off some sick cat and lied to me. I’m glad you have your sweet babygirl now. ❤️ What a journey you guys went through. I’m certain she will be thoroughly loved and cherished.

That girl who informed you first is the true hero of this story. God knows how far it would go if she didn't recognise you guys from photos and contacted you. She deserves nothing but praises and outmost respect for what she did. There cannot be real justice in this case, as any punishment that woman might get, will never manage to make the things right to all of you again. But there is a way you can come out a winner out of all of this - never give up and keep trying and eventually succeed in having a baby, either biological or adopted. That will be your final victory over all of this.

I know this hurts so much right now but PLEASE prosecute her so she can’t do this to anyone else. You’ll save more from the heartbreak you guys are going through. I promise the baby for y’all will come💜

You’re going to be the best parents. You guys are so loving and I can’t wait to be here with you guys through your journey. You’re time will come ❤

I’m at a complete loss for words. It breaks my heart that someone could be so cruel. She should definitely be prosecuted for this. I have an 11 year old, and I’ve been trying to conceive for almost 3 years. I know the struggle you’re going through, it’s so hard. I’ve experienced pregnancy once and it was such an amazing experience, it’s hard to understand why it’s so difficult this time. Sending so much love and prayers your way💖!!!

Unfortunately I recognised the first picture immediately. The lady in question did the same thing to me, 7 months ago!! I’m in the UK and she managed to convince me that she was living here and got fake phone numbers and addresses that were UK based etc I was horrified when i found out! I’m still heartbroken, and can’t believe people like that exist in this world. I’m so sorry she did this to you both Bella and Dallin. I’m still waiting on my miracle baby, I hope you get yours soon too ❤️

My heart goes out to you guys! I can't even wrap my head around it... how could somebody do such a thing.

YOU, did nothing wrong! Nothing at all. You’re good people with the best hearts. I’m so glad you’ve had your happy ending. You both deserve the world and more 🤍

I’m heartbroken you walked through this grief. Thank you for sharing your pain to help others, and I hope you find healing through sharing, too.

I sure hope she gets arrested for this. People are cruel and evil! I’m so sorry for everything you’ve gone through and continue to go through! Praying your baby/babies come into your life soon and that you find healing from this ❤.

Prosecute that scammer woman to the fullest extent of the law!!!

i’m so unbelievably sorry. you both have such wholesome hearts to be open to such a beautiful blessing. please don’t let that go 💜

@DELLAVLOGS OMG, I just found your channel today as it came up in my RU-vid shorts & my heart absolutely breaks for the 2 of You! This beyond deplorably & diabolically evil & if You’ve never been through infertility, someone could never understand how stressful, difficult & heartbreaking this journey is! I do have 2 now adult sons but I was always told I would never be able to have children & have gone through fertility treatments as well as being an RN, I ran an infertility support group for years in my city. I am beyond heartbroken for what the 2 of You have been through but also beyond overjoyed to see that You’ve been able to adopt your beautiful daughter & congratulations from the bottom of my heart. ❤❤❤

I've never heard of Adoption scams before. I've heard of adoptions falling through because the birth parents changed their minds, but I've never heard of anyone doing something so cruel. I am so sorry for you both and will be praying for you guys and will he praying that God sends you your baby(ies) soon ❤❤❤❤❤

Bella's face throughout the whole video... This is just disgusting. I cant believe someone would do something like this. I hope and pray that you will get a child of your own soon 🙏

So happy you finally got your precious baby girl. I hope you can finally put all this behind you in some way! ❤

Im so glad I didnt see this until after I saw your Story adoption video. This is unfathomable and so cruel. You guys are wonderful people and deserve all the happiness in the world. Im so sorry you went through this, but life had bigger things in store for you ❤

I usually do not comment on videos, but listening to your story and watching your infertility videos and now this, I just felt that I have to say something. I first want to say how sorry I am that this happened to you, nobody deserves this. But also, I cannot believe how strong you two are for sharing with us this journey you have been through. This is something nobody can imagine going through but for you to share with us and stay strong in telling us this story, brings a light that RU-vid isn’t just for entertainment but it’s for real moments, and real connection. Thank you for sharing us and being vulnerable to be open about what happened. I am praying for you, stay strong. Thank you.

This is why there should be so much more education on adoption, because then you get couples like this who didn't do it through a lawyer and are now heartbroken. Always get a lawyers first when looking into adoption. I hope they take time to heal.

Please don't put yourselves down for beliveing the lies. You werent at all to know, and it just shows how amazing you guys are and what beautiful people you both are. You will find the perfect family with a perfect baby to adopt. Lots of love and good luck for the rest of your adoption journey ❤

How are there people that are so evil? You both are so strong and I am so happy to find this video now that you have your sweet baby girl!❤

I'm generally a silent viewer but this warrants a bazillion comments!!! Dallen and Bella, you guys are true heroes and you definitely DO NOT deserve this!!!!!!!! I'm crying!!!!! We all got ur back!! We all got u in our prayers!!! We all love you!!! Stay strong guys!!!! 💔💔💔💔💔

I genuinely can't understand how people fake a pregnancy.. especially when they know what some couples are going through. Stay strong Bella and Dallin 💜 I'll keep praying for you 💜

That is a horrible experience. Your beautiful daughter is even more of a blessing after all this.

You two are being tested at the highest level! I commend you for sharing this and being so transparent about your lives. The journey of parenthood is the most precious journey of all. Being an identical twin myself, to see the unconditional love you two carried at the thought of having the twins, is beautiful. Please keep your body in peace and harmony, reduce your oxidative stress (the key is within the cells) and watch your body deliver you what it was made to create! May you both continue to have faith and a strong mindset to know it will all be ok.

I watched the first video as soon as it came out, I had a sick feeling about what could have gone wrong. Since watching your video I have not stopped thinking of you both and the pain and grief you are enduring. I am sick to my stomach, I have no idea why someone would do this, nor will I ever understand. I know there is a plan for you and a baby who will be blessed with amazing parents who will cherish and love them. Despite never having met you I can see what genuine people you are and the love and passion that you not only have for eachother, but also for a baby that you haven't even met yet. I know that nothing I nor anyone else says can take away from what you are feeling and experiencing, but I do want you to know that you are not alone. People in this world can be cruel, but I know that this is part of God's plan and no matter how hard it is right now, everything happens for a reason. You will get your happy ending, I know you will❤️

hey guys im a silent follower and my heart is broken for yall. all these hate comments are making me sick. Im so sorry this happened to yall. We love you and are here for you every step of the way.

I know I’m late by 9 months. But I’m so heartbroken for you guys. I do not understand how a person could do that to MULTIPLE families. But I’m so glad you guys finally have a perfect baby girl! I love you guys and your videos! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’m so sorry this happened to you. I just watched the video of your family with your daughter, congratulations! Your journey lead to the one who is meant to be yours!

this is sickening. she should be charged. my prayers are with y’all ❤

Bella & Dallin, PLEASE DONT GIVE UP! When you two finally get your child, it will be so blessed to have such hardworking, genuine, loving parents. I’m so incredibly sorry for the trauma that must’ve caused. What that women did to you and all those other families is absolutely REPULSIVE. And you’re totally right, this video will educate thousands of other families. Your positive outlook is so impressive and commendable I can’t imagine the heartbreak and betrayal you must feel. Thank you for being so honest and raw with the world. One of my favorite verses that brings me comfort in times of distress: “Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit” - Psalm 34:18

You are definitely an inspiring couple. I just stumbled upon these videos but had already seen the one where you adopted your daughter. This would’ve been very painful to watch without knowing the positive outcome for you all❤ congratulations and looking forward to future videos❤❤❤

omg... i have no words to explain how disturbing this is. I genuinely have no idea how someone could fake a pregnancy. My heart goes out to you guys and I know that you will find a match soon. I will be praying 💙

I’ll never understand how a person could be so evil. I don’t even want to understand it. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your journey, all of the happy and all of the sad. It helps people, and I hope a scammer sees this video and realizes how much hurt they cause. It needs to stop.

I saw your RU-vid short video and then listened to this. I honestly have never heard of someone doing this! And, there’s no charges? No punishment for her? I can’t believe this! I’m sending my prayers right now for you. You guys did NOTHING wrong…she has to be the cruelest person I believe I have ever heard of. I am just in shock, so I can only imagine the shock y’all must be in. You will get your baby. God does bless those who believe. You have so much good to give a child/children. They will be SO lucky and loved. I’m going to subscribe and keep up! I have to know your happy ending! ❤❤prayers!

Agreed! Why someone would do this is beyond me! This would be heartbroken for anyone, not just them! I feel so sorry for what this poor couple is going through. Sending prayers! ❤❤

As a adopted girl. I think this is just cruel. This just hurts me so much! Why would someone fake this!? This is just stupid. This world is just so cruel. This just makes me so freaking mad. I am so sorry for you guys. You will get a baby soon. DONT give up❤️💕😭

I'm Nanji and I'm 16 You guys are amazing people, I don't think you are dumb or naive, you are people with amazing hearts who were willing to love and take another's child as your own. You guys are special i hope you know that. Don't take what happened as a bad luck just see it that what's really meant to be yours is on the way. My Dad died when I was 8 and he always said after a horrible rain is a beautiful rainbow. And good things always happen to kind and amazing people. Just know your rainbow is on the way. Please don't ever change or stop being kind cause that's what's special about you two and God knows it

This is horrific, I am lost for words and just so incredibly sorry you went through this x

Looking at this and where you guys are now, I feel it in my spirit that all these struggles were just preparations from God to make you guys stronger for your baby girl.

As a woman who lost a child from SIDS and then got pregnant while grieving and I couldn't handle the stress of a new child. I chose adoption and the family I picked was dealing with infertility issues and I promised them up and down I was not changing my mind. Thankfully I am a good person and those amazing people now have my son and he is living the life I could never give him. I'm so sorry that this happened. What an absolute shitty human. 😢

I feel like you should show her pictures to alert other families. I also feel she needs to be held accountable. I’m 62 years old and I’m adopted. I loved my parents so much. This is absolutely unacceptable and I’m so sorry that y’all are going through this. I can’t even imagine what you’re going through. I can definitely feel the pain and sadness. I definitely know God has bigger plans for you two. ❤

i’m so sorry my heart breaks for you guys i pray you get that perfect little baby so soon 🙏🏻❤️ you guys deserve to be parents and will be amazing!

I'm so happy for you both that you now have a beautiful baby girl! I'm convinced you two are going to be amazing parents to her! 💞

It’s utterly shocking that a person can meet with you in person, look you in the eyes and tell you they’re going to give you their babies for adoption and it all ends up being fake. My heart truly breaks for you two. I know that when a little one finally enters your life, it will be one of the most rewarding and happy days of your life. I’m praying for you guys ❤

I found this by accident and was devastated for you two and your families. It is hard to wrap my head around someone who could be so cruel. I am praying that your journey will end with a beautiful baby. Much love.

I’m so sorry this happened to you and all those other families, I hope she’s charged and put away for this Despite all of this, I hope your dream still comes true !! You guy will be amazing parents any child would be lucky to have y’all Please keep your heads up You got this !!

I'm so sorry you went through that. Prayers for the empty soul that put you through this.

I have no words. I can’t believe someone would do this. It’s unbelievably cruel. You two looked so happy and it was really heartwarming to see the pure love and joy that was in your smiles. You did not deserve this and I am so sorry. Please don’t give up, though. You guys have too much love to share to NOT have children.

This is truly disgusting that someone could do that to two amazing humans. I couldn’t imagine what you two are going through. We are all still rooting for you ❤ Praying for you both.
