Trying To Adopt? How To Avoid Adoption Scams
For couples who can’t have their own children and are trying to adopt, there’s nothing more exciting than finding a match – or more heartbreaking when an adoption falls through.

They’ll do anything – including give up their life’s savings – if they think it will help them get a child sooner.
