A plane that disappears....that's where the 4B went

These events happen almost constantly in this chaotic world, and in general, not many can stop them..

goals

Fools, money, etc

Yes, USA Media is still scamming gullible Lefties using the term 'mostly peaceful,' for the US Gov's Dem street Army, as if a word perversion changes essence. Please.

She's probably hiding in Russia

You could buy a lot of fighter jets with 4 billion, perhaps we will see her as a villain in the next Top Gun installment

It does seem like the scammed did much of the heavy lifting here. E-mail from Nigeria has a bridge to sell.

They wanted a decentralised currency now except the reality

They just don’t want to catch her tbh!!

Intriguing to say the least now wow

Should be plenty of cheap Rolex’s on the market soon. 😏

But is apparently selling an apartment in London at the moment.
