Did My Sisters Scam Me? | KARAMO

In this episode of KARAMO, host Karamo mediates a heated family dispute after sister Charlie alleges that her sisters Precious and Chara set her up with a fraudulent travel agent, resulting in a loss of over $1,000, canceled tickets, and a locked hotel room. Charlie claims the sisters pushed her to use the agent, profited from the deal, and continue to promote the scammer. Precious and Chara each deny wrongdoing, take lie‑detector tests, and assert they received no money or compensation. The conversation devolves into accusations of jealousy, defending versus discounting each other's feelings, and repeated interruptions. Karamo repeatedly emphasizes the need to stop defending and discounting each other's emotions, urging the sisters to listen, acknowledge feelings, and avoid future conflicts. The episode concludes with Karamo summarizing that the sisters did not profit from the scam, encouraging better communication and offering a hopeful note for repaired relationships.
Chapters
I planned a birthday trip for my birthday this year, and unfortunately, my sister Precious and Chara helped scam me. Precious basically convinced me to go through someone that she knew, this guy that does half-off deals. And I really didn't need her help. I let her know in advance that I had it all planned out. She convinced me to go by this person that she knew, and eventually, this person ended up jacking me on the day of my birthday. Precious actually told me that she had previously used this guy in the past, and Chara actually informed me that she would be placing an order soon after mine. What can go wrong? I mean, just my luck. Things went downhill from there. They actually locked me out of my room with everything in it, all my important information. I had no other choice but to call the guy that my sister referred me to. He explained that everything would be fixed. It went worse.
The resort, got kicked out the room.
The SeaWorld tickets were canceled.
Legoland, canceled.
At the end of the day, I lost over $1,000. And I think my sisters basically got money out of the deal because of how hard they pushed me to mess with the guy. Still to this day, they're still promoting this guy. I need them to take a lie detector test today, 100%. Bex, they jacked me off.
Her sisters both took a lie detector test and we will reveal the truth later in the show. But let's start with Precious and hear her side of the story. So Precious, welcome to the show.
Thank you so much.
First of all, you look beautiful.
Thank you, you too.
So why did you call the show?
I called the show to get some resolution. It's been downhill since this trip happened and I just want the truth to finally like, And when was this trip?
Was it early this year, last year?
The trip was around February and her birthday, like around her birthday time. And that's when it all started.
So it's been about 8 months, 9 months of confusion in your family.
Yes, a lot of confusion, a lot of social media posts, a lot of havoc, a lot of just—
So let me just ask you straight up, did you scam your sister?
Absolutely not.
Okay then. Do you know the guy who booked her trip?
So I don't personally know him. I went through him off of Facebook. I was referred to him. And I did refer her to him because it's always good business.
So why does she think you set up then to be scammed?
I really think she hatin' on me.
Oh, that's what you think? Okay.
I really think she just wanna find some conflict just so we could just have reason to be into it because I don't play like that.
Got it. So tell me from your point of view what happened.
Around February, she called me. Like, she picked up the phone and called me because how would I know you know, she going on her trip.
I mean, that's crucial information because it wasn't like, if you're trying to scam, you'd be like trying to get money.
I'm gonna reach out to her.
Yeah.
That's crucial information. Okay, other question.
So she called me telling me, you know, I'm going to see where I'm going to San Antonio. Basically she needs some help paying the expenses. When she reached out to me, it was just like, hon, go through 'em. It wasn't no pressure on it. Like I said, I don't get no half off, no points for it. If you go through 'em, good. If you don't, good. Initially she said she wasn't gonna go through them, so it was still like, okay.
Like, okay, don't go through them.
So she went through them. Everything was good at first because I think she ordered something from him at first, like a washer and a dryer, and it went through. But I think she sent him the wrong address, which that's her fault because he don't know where she live at. And then after that, it just went from downhill. When she arrived at the room, she had to pay a resort fee, which you gotta pay that regardless. If you take trips, you know that. So she had to pay like $140, $150, whatever. So I don't know if she including that in the total that she got scammed in, but that's what you just have to pay.
Karamo, let me back up though, because it's very interesting that she did an order for a washer and dryer.
Yes.
That has nothing to do with you. She decided to call and get the half price on the washer and dryer. From the same guy.
Yeah, I know.
And then, And then, so that one she don't think you scammed her out of, but the trip she thinks you scammed her out of.
Well, I think she just adding it all together. I think really she trying to scam a scammer, however it is. I don't really know.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. So do you want a relationship with her?
Of course I do. I wouldn't be here if I didn't. Of course I do. I know it's gonna take some time, you know, because of all that has transpired. But I mean, I'm family-oriented. I love my people. I love my family.
Of course, yeah, I know that. I can see that in you. So you took a lie detector test to prove You didn't do anything.
Zero.
With scamming your sister. Yes. Is there any way you'll fail that? I gotta ask you.
No.
Not a single way? No. Okay, zero. All right then. Well, listen everyone, let's meet your sister Charlie and hear what she has to say about all this. So everyone, welcome Charlie to the show. Hey Charlie, how you doing?
Hello.
You look great, by the way.
I appreciate it. You look good yourself.
So why do you think your sister scammed you?
That's a good question. I still don't know why you would've ever tried to scam me. But it basically happened a couple of days before my birthday. I had, we always talk on the phone, first of all. So it's nothing about me just calling her up and hollering about a birthday trip. That's never how it happened. We talk on the phone 24/7 and that's one thing she knows. I was so excited about this trip that I had planned for a minute now. This is my first time. I'm normally last minute like she claims with everything I do. So I actually had everything mapped out this time. So I'm calling my sister out of confidence because this is my sister and I'm excited about the moment. It's a 3 birthday trip.
Oh, okay.
For my boyfriend, his birthday is February 3rd.
Okay.
My birthday is February 4th. And our child's birthday is February 5th.
Oh wow, so this was bigger for you because it was your child's birthday.
It's big for me because it's a 3 birthday plan. I had everything planned out from the T. I even had a travel agent that my sister knew about. So I'm not sure— So are you gonna go for the trip?
No, no, no, no, wait a minute.
It's my turn.
Go ahead, I'mma let you.
It's my time. And I have messages to basically prove that I told this same travel agent that my sister had somebody that she knew that was basically gonna give me a discount and I would see how that went. I stopped that travel agent because my sister persisted that I mess with this dude that she knows that I never knew. So I'm not sure where she's going about me needing her. It never got that.
From what she said, she said she didn't persist. It was like you initiated it.
It was most—
She was in my ear beating me hard.
Why would I be in your ear?
It's my dog.
You talked already. I'm talking to him.
You done had your shot. No, no, no.
You shut up.
Just a couple of seconds ago.
I'm gonna let you have it.
You ain't got no choice.
I do have a choice.
You know it.
No, you know it.
It's my goal. Go ahead.
It's my goal.
I'm gonna let you finally get it.
As you should.
Go ahead.
Anyway.
Go ahead. You needed the help.
I never needed help.
You needed the help.
Baby, you was delusional. You've been delusional. You've been delusional. Do I look like I need help?
Yeah.
Stop playing with me.
When you was backstage, you was getting mad. What was going on?
Because she's just lying about a lot of stuff. I never called for her help.
So I just got a question.
Can I talk to him?
You been talking the whole time. Baby, I just came out. I just came out. You put a muzzle in yours.
Did y'all have a good relationship before this? 'Cause it seems like right now, I can see how strange it is.
It's always been a jealousy rage between me and my sister.
Who was the jealous one?
You.
Why would I be jealous? I got more money than you, my house bigger, I drive a Benz. You don't even have your own name on your house.
You thought that.
You got a CPN.
No, never had that. Never had that.
You got a housing.
The jealousy your entire life.
But why would I be jealous?
I'm the big sister.
I love my people. I have over 20-something people.
Can you shut up so I can talk to him? I'm the real bitch.
Can you shut up?
You bigger than me. Correct.
You definitely bigger than me.
Anyway.
Anyway.
She got a lot of BDs, y'all. She can't stop lying.
You said a lot of BDs? A lot of BDs.
It's her lifestyle.
I'm sick of it.
I can't wait. You said she got a lot of BDs. I ain't never heard that in my life.
It's a sickness. And it's the delusion in your brain that ever thought that I would ever You think that I would play on you?
I can't even take that serious.
I can't take you serious.
I can't take it serious.
You look like a clown. Well, you look like a big one. You look like a clown.
I need to get your other sister, Char, out here to get her in this. Can Char come out here?
Everyone bring Char to this thing.
Let's go.
We got it all.
We finally got it all.
Anyway, anyway. Get off the stage. You on there on the stage 'cause you want something. Anyway, look at this.
Anyway, excellent. So Char, let me ask you this. First of all, welcome. Thank you for being here. Did you profit from your sister booking her trip?
No, I didn't profit from the trip. I don't know the man. I just, he do great business.
So why would you promote him if he don't know him?
Let her get her child first.
He does great business.
You the only one. Girl, shut up. You done talked to her the whole time. Anyway. I'm tired too.
No, I'm tired of you.
Hold on, hold on.
Do they always argue like this?
No!
No!
He does great business.
Everybody that I've sent him to, he's done great business with him. You're the only one that he had a problem with. I feel like that you're delusional.
If I'm the only one that don't think that way.
Why can't I get corrected? Why would my get corrected?
Corrected about what?
Why can't I get money back?
He didn't send me all the money that I paid him. He only sent me money for the room that I was locked out of. And I said that, repeated, time, so I'm trying to see if everybody else it goes right for, I'm the only person that it goes wrong at.
Why can't I get paid?
Why are you the only person that it goes wrong for?
Or why can't I get reimbursed?
That's what I'm trying to see.
Why are you the only one that ain't?
That's what I'm trying to ask y'all, that's why we here today.
What's the amount you feel like he owe you, Charlie?
I've lost over $1,000. I got you to calculate it. When I told my sister how much I lost, she said, let's be real now, Charlie. He ain't gonna pay you all of that. Let's be real. If I'm telling you this is what I took an L on, why wouldn't he reimburse me? Okay.
Let's just say, he can only reimburse me for the amount of money that I paid him.
He didn't even do that.
He didn't even do that. My sister claimed he would, but I ain't get that. I'm just saying.
So, hold on, did you claim that he would reimburse her?
He gave her back the money that she gave him.
For the hotel.
For the hotel. I don't know about nothing else.
Girl, you do. You said you got a lot of receipts. I sent you screenshots of everything. Them screenshots were this long. I ain't reading it. You was on the phone. I ain't reading it. You was on the phone. You didn't send me no screenshots. I have a Galaxy and I got an iPhone.
I'm not reading that green mess.
Uh-uh.
She can understand it.
She read everything and she responds to it. She reads everything. Blah, blah, blah.
And she responds to everything.
She blinked.
How do you feel about being accused?
I'm hurt, I'm mad, I'm upset.
I'm trying to see how y'all more hurt than me. I'm confused.
You is confused.
You're our sister, it's a million people to get over all of this.
Why would we choose you to get over it?
This ain't my sister's first time blowing nobody down on Facebook. She did our daddy, she did our mom. She did every baby daddy she done had. She did every best friend she done had. This ain't our first, or her first time getting into it with people she love. So I'm trying to see what she, some confused thoughts for now.
I wanna ask you a question, Charlie. Do you want a relationship with her again? With Charlie again?
To clear my name. I do want a relationship if we can get past it because honestly, we did not scam you.
We did not get some, we didn't get nothing from you.
You don't want a relationship with her before the test come.
And we can test, I said before the test came already.
Do you think she's jealous of the relationship between you and Precious?
I think she's jealous. We travel, we have family occasions, we're very, very close. I feel like she wants that relationship as well, which we're willing to give you that relationship.
If I want it, give it to me.
I'm comfortable when I'm around. If I'm around somebody— She's boring.
Why do you feel uncomfortable?
Well, not you, 'cause you ain't never did nothing wrong. I think I make her uncomfortable 'cause the personality's so big.
I know how to flirt.
It's not because of the—
You know, it's always flexing with me. I got it though. It's when you're insecure with yourself and you're reflecting your insecurities on others. So you wanna make somebody feel lower than you.
Kara, let me ask you this. Is there any way that you'll fail the lie detector test?
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
Zero. Okay.
Well, listen, I'll say this. I think it's time to unlock the truth.
Let's do it.
Kara, this is for you. All right, the first question is, did you ever receive any money from the man who booked your sister Charlie's trip? You said no. The truth is, Chara is telling the truth.
What did you do? What did you do? Come on, man, what did you do? To be real, you know that I already know. I told you this already. Hold on, we gotta keep going.
I wanna get her results.
This is still Chara. Did you knowingly set your sister Charlie up with someone who scammed other people out of money? You said no. The truth is Chara is telling the truth.
Okay.
Thank you.
Good job. And I told you that I was not sure.
This is the big one. This is the big one. Did you receive any compensation including money, gifts, or discounts from the person who booked your sister's trip? You said no. The truth is Chara is telling the truth.
Let's go.
Told you. See, I'm not trying to do it. That's what I'm saying. I never had an issue.
I told you what my issue was.
You did, you messed up.
I told you what my issue was. It was my shoes.
Well, Precious, here we go. All right, Precious, we asked you, did you ever receive money from the man who booked your sister Charlie's trip? You said no. The truth is Precious is telling the truth as well.
Okay, thank you, thank you. Oh my gosh.
Question 2, did you knowingly set your sister Charlie up with someone who scams other people out of their money? You said no. The truth is? Let's hear it.
Let's hear it.
Precious is telling the truth.
No! No! Delusional! No, it never gave delusional.
Delusional!
It never gave delusional.
All right, third question.
Third one?
Did you receive any compensation, including money, gifts, or discounts from the person who booked your sister's trip? Precious, you said no. And the truth is—
What?
Can't beat that.
Precious is telling the truth.
Okay, come on now. Come on now, y'all doing those things though. Wow. It just happened. You the clown.
I'm gonna tell y'all this. This man gave y'all the discount on these trips or whatever, but y'all need to stop discounting each other's feelings. And that's the core of this. That is the core of this. Y'all gotta stop discounting each other's feelings because even now, Y'all start to fight, y'all start to fight and y'all discount each other's feelings. And then what y'all do is y'all get into a pattern defending. When you discount, you defend. And the defense is what's causing y'all to argue. Yeah, answer your question.
I do have a question. I just want y'all to see my side of the story. This is me in this situation.
Now remember what I just said. Whatever she says, don't defend. Just hear. Because defending, you're a discounter. So say your piece.
I know I just got checked. I done told my sisters this in a lot of confidence already, so we already have an understood establishment of what I expressed to them on how I feel. Me coming and still seeing that they are still supporting the same dude that I just said that I was jacked, of course I have grounds to be hurt. I'm gonna be hurt.
Because I'm worried about—
So guess what, Char, you just did. You just did what I told you not to do. You defended. You defended.
Correct.
And when you defended, you discounted her feelings and she started to argue back. 'Cause in this moment, let me tell you what she just, I heard what you said. You said in this moment I got jacked and I just want, why y'all still defending him? Correct. And all I want y'all to do is defend me here. I heard her.
I understood her and I'm receiving it, but.
Nope. But is defending. Nope, nope. They already said it.
Nope, everybody got it.
Look, everybody got it.
But what we can do from now is just move forward. That's all I was gonna say. I understand.
But it's not about the moving forward. Without defending, you say, "I heard you, and then damn, you right. Damn, you right." You right.
You right.
But I was right on the laptop too.
I'm telling y'all, if y'all can learn this lesson for all of y'all, and it's gonna be a hard lesson 'cause y'all been in a pattern for years of always defending, defending, defending, defending. And that defense has caused y'all to get into these issues where y'all are just not hearing each other. Y'all are discounting each other. If y'all can change that, y'all can have the best sister relationship. But I'm telling you, just like that, this is a simple one. This man scammed me. I'm so pissed. Don't be defending this man. It's like, yeah girl, I'm gonna stop defending him. That's it. And that's what you would've wanted a long time ago.
I mean, just keep it real the same way I'm keeping it real with you. If I ain't go, if somebody do something to you, I'm gonna make sure I get that right at the end of the day. And if they did something to you, I'm never gonna fool with them again because what's the reason?
I get it. And it's not that you're different because I do believe that your sisters have the same morality. I can hear how you've been talking, hearing how you say you cussed them out, hearing how you called him immediately to get that $345 back. I know they have the same morality, so I know that. And because if you didn't, you would've been like, girl, it's your problem. I'm not calling him about the days. You would've just did nothing. But I get it. But when y'all still continue the conversation defending these small moments, like I said, y'all discount each other. And so if I can give y'all anything else, you have the truth now. Your sisters had no money. They didn't benefit from this, they didn't get anything. Hopefully that gives you some comfort of knowing your sister's right.
Which I do feel better knowing the truth now, but I feel like this just could have been easily avoided had y'all just stopped promoting dude.
That's it.
Switch it up. If you stop defending and discounting me.
Well, yeah.
That's true. Start using the language what it is. 'Cause if y'all can start using that language as sisters, I promise y'all, you gonna have growth in your relationship. It's no more about this dude, it's discounting and defending. I wish y'all the best of luck. Y'all are a lot of fun outside of this. Outside of this, Y'all type people I want to go hang out with. I just want to let y'all know that right now. Okay, let's do it.
