GoFundMe: Donors in
alleged scam refunded

MOUNT HOLLY, N.J.
— GoFundMe says it has
refunded everyone who
contributed to a campaign
involving a homeless vet
eran from Philadelphia who
prosecutors allege schemed
with a New Jersey couple
to scam donors out of more
than $400,000.
GoFundMe spokesman
Bobby Whithorne said Tues
day that “all donors who con
tributed to this GoFundMe
campaign have been fully
refunded” and the organiza
tion is cooperating fully with
law enforcement.
Burlington County pros
ecutors allege in a crimi
nal complaint that Johnny
Bobbitt conspired with
Katelyn McClure and her
boyfriend at the time, Mark
D’Amico, to concoct a feel
good story about Bobbitt
giving McClure his last $20
when her car ran out of gas.
They raised $400,000, which
authorities say was spent
on luxury items and casino
trips.
Whithorne said cam
paigns involving misuse
“make up less than one
tenth of one percent” of
all GoFundMe campaigns,
but such behavior “is
unacceptable” and “has
consequences.”
“We have a zero toler
ance policy for fraudulent
behavior,” he said. “If
fraud occurs, donors get
refunded and we work with
law enforcement officials to
recover the money. ”
McClure has alleged
through her lawyer that
D’Amico duped her. His law
yer has denied the allega
tions. Prosecutors released
texts from McClure includ
ing one sent right after the
GoFundMe page was set up
in which they allege she told
a friend that the “gas part is
completely made up.”
Prosecutors began inves
tigating last summer after
Bobbitt said he wasn’t get
ting money raised on his
behalf. He later sued the
couple.

Indonesia tsunami survivors
still jittery as deaths hit 429
BY NINIEK KARMINI
Associated Press
SUMUR, Indonesia —
Panicked residents, police
and soldiers in this remote
fishing village clobbered by
a devastating weekend tsu
nami ran to higher ground
Tuesday, shouting “Water is
coming! Water is coming!”
and reciting verses from the
Quran as emergency mes
sages were broadcast over
mosque speakers.
It proved to be a false
alarm, but a similar frenzy
broke out in Tanjung Lesung,
another tsunami-stricken
area located hours away, as
unsettled survivors of the
disaster remained trauma
tized by a tragedy that killed
more than 420 people and
left thousands homeless.
Meanwhile, Christmas cel
ebrations were replaced by
prayers, as church leaders
called on Christians across
Indonesia, the world’s most
populous Muslim nation, to
pray for tsunami victims.
Unlike other tsunamis that
have hit disaster-prone Indo
nesia following large earth
quakes, Saturday’s big waves
blasted ashore at night with
out warning. The eruption of
Anak Krakatau, or Child of
Krakatoa, a volcano in the
Sunda Strait, is believed to
have created a landslide on
the volcano’s slope, displac
ing a large volume of water
that slammed into the islands
of Java and Sumatra.
People in Sumur vil
lage, which has been slow
to receive aid due to roads
being cut off, remained
stunned by how quickly
the tsunami hit. The beach,
located just a few miles from
the tourist island of Umang
near Java’s western tip, is
popular for snorkeling and
other water activities. The
tsunami decimated the area,
ripping houses from their
foundations and bulldozing
concrete buildings.
Scientists have said the tsu
nami’s waves were recorded
in several places at about
3.3 feet high, but residents
of Sumur insisted they tow
ered more than 10 feet there.
They said a soaring white
wall of water roared toward
them at high speeds, ripping
trees out of the ground by
their roots.
“There was no sign of a
tsunami when we were at
the beach. The sea didn’t
recede,” said Tati Hayati, a
housewife, who was enjoy
ing a pleasant evening with
10 other people when the
disaster hit. “It was calm and
bright with the full moon.”
When she spotted high,
fast-moving waves launching
toward the shore, she ran to
her car and managed to get
inside. But she couldn’t out
run it. She said the car was
struck by three waves, break
ing out the back window and
filling the vehicle with gush
ing water.
“We were locked inside.
The car was swaying in
the waves and we thought
we would all die,” Hayati
said. “We almost could not
breathe and I almost gave
up when I groped the key in
the water and managed to
open the door, and the water
began to recede. We got out
of the car and ran to safety.”
The disaster was com
pounded because it occurred
over a busy holiday weekend
before Christmas when many
people had fled crowded cit
ies such as Jakarta, Indo
nesia’s capital, to relax at
popular beach areas.
The death toll climbed to
429 on Tuesday, with more
than 1,400 people injured
and at least 128 missing,
said Sutopo Purwo Nugroho,
spokesman for Indonesia’s
Disaster Mitigation Agency.

A Sex Cream May
Replace Popular
Sex Pills for Men
Research shows a new topical may be a highly effective
solution for men with failing sex lives; key ingredients
activate special sensation pathways right below the
skin, enhancing erections and triggering arousal
NEW SEX CREAM MAY REPLACE POPULAR SEX PILLS: This
new patented clinically proven arousal cream is now available
nationwide.
Daniel Watson
Medical News Today
BOSTON - The medical
community now has a
safer and more effective
alternative to sex
pills, which they can
immediately start offering
to male patients. It will
not require a prescription.
The alternative, called
Sensum*®, is an amazing
new sex cream that
activates a sensation
pathway on the penis
known as TRPA1.
When applied as
directed, it leads to
incredible arousal and
much more satisfying
erections.
It also promotes
powerful climaxes and
ultimately results in
significant improvements
in performance.
“Men can expect out
standing sexual improve
ments with regular use.
The penis will become
hyper sensitive, making
them easily aroused and
excitable” explains Dr.
Henry Esber, the Boston
based scientist who intro
duced Sensum*® to mar
ket.
“And that’s because
Sensum + ® does what
no other sex pill or drug
has done before - it
stimulates a special
sensory pathway right
below the skin, which
leads to phenomenal
sensation.”
Overtime, constant
exposure (especially
if circumcised] leads
to decreased penis
sensitivity, which can
cause problems with
arousal and erection
quality. There just isn’t
enough feeling to get
excited. ”
“Diabetes, anti
depressants and normal
aging also leads to
desensitization, a can
make the situation even
worse.”
“This is what makes
Sensum + ® so effective and
why the clinical studies
and clinical use studies
have been so positive.”
MISDIAGNOSIS
LEADS TO
UNNEEDED
PRESCRIPTIONS
After years of clinical
research and testing, Dr.
Esber and his team have
discovered an incredible
compound that triggers
arousal while helping
men achieve erections
more easily.
This compound isn’t
a drug. It’s the active
ingredient in Sensum + ®.
And according to users,
it produces sensational
results. Many men report
remarkable improvements
in sexual performance
and overall satisfaction.
They are more sexually
active than they’ve been
in years with the average
Sensum + ® user over the
age of 50.
Clinical studies
show Sensum + ®’s key
ingredient activates the
TRPA1 sensation pathway
right below the skin of the
penis.
According to research,
many men adults and
seniors who suffer
sexually have lost
sensation in their penis
due to constant rubbing
and exposure and health
related issues such as
diabetes, hernia surgery,
use of some anti
depressants, multiple
sclerosis, and other type
of illnesses.
This desensitization
often makes sex extremely
challenging. Without a
100% feeling in the penis,
its next to impossible to
get truly aroused.
Worse, modern day sex
drugs have absolutely no
effect on sensation and
are laden with side effects.
They simply stimulate
an erection by enhancing
blood flow.
It’s why most men are
rarely satisfied after taking
them and why Sensum + ®
users are always stocking
up on more and couldn’t
be happier.
“We knew the science
behind Sensum + ® was
there, but we never
expected results like we’re
seeing. It’s far exceeded
our expectations” said
a spokesperson for the
company.
A STAGGERING 80%
IMPROVEMENT IN
SENSITIVITY
Researchers have
conducted several clinical
studies on Sensum + ® and
the results from the most
recent are undoubtedly
the most impressive.
A data analysis of three
clinical surveys of 370 men
showed that an amazing
80% of Sensum*® users
experienced dramatic
improvements while
using the cream and as a
result were aroused easier
and a phenomenal boost
in performance.
Additionally, 77.4% of
men also reported much
more satisfying climaxes,
making sex for both them
and their partners nearly
300 % more satisfying.
“I have full feeling and
sensitivity back in my
penis. Everything feels
better. My erections are
harder, I’m more easily
aroused, I can finally
climax again. This stuff
honestly works like magic
in the bedroom. I couldn’t
be happier at 66!” raves
one Sensum + ® user.
HOW SENSUM + ®
WORKS
Sensum + ® is a new sex
cream for men that’s to be
applied twice a day for the
first two weeks then just
once every day after.
There are no harmful
side effects for either
the user or partner. It
also does not require a
prescription.
The active ingredient
is an organic
compound known as
cinnamaldehyde with a
patented combination of
sexually rousing extracts.
Research shows that as
men get older, they often
lose sensitivity to the
penis.
Although very subtle,
this desensitization can
significantly hinder sexual
performance and lead to
serious problems with
becoming aroused and
staying/getting hard.
The cinnamaldehyde in
Sensum*® is one of the
only known ingredients
to activate a special
sensation pathway on
the penis called TRPA1.
Once activated, it restores
tremendous sensation
to the penis, stimulating
arousal and powerful
erections.
This would explain
why so many users are
experiencing impressive
results so quickly and
why the distributors of
Sensum*® offer their
low cost cream with an
amazing guarantee.
GUARANTEE
DISCOUNTED SUPPLY
TAKES RISK OFF
CONSUMERS
A large percentage of
men report life changing
results with Sensum*®.
That’s why it is now
being sold with an above
industry standard
guarantee.
“We can only make this
guarantee because we are
100% certain this cream
works,” says Esber.
“We want to take risk
off the consumers. So
besides offering massive
discounts, we’re also
offering this guarantee, so
they don’t have to risk a
cent.”
Here’s how it works:
Use the cream exactly as
directed and you must feel
a significant improvement
in sexual sensations.
You must be more easily
aroused with harder,
longer lasting erections
and be having the best sex
you’ve had in years.
Otherwise, simply
return the empty bottles.
Then, the company
will refund your money
immediately.
