I don't even know where to begin. I am so so disappointed in myself for falling for her scam. I purchased a "Super Bowl" package and a "Hawaii Trip" She said she would return my money, I even spoke on phone, she was in hospital and blah blah blah. She took $7,150.00 Let's just say my kids had a [censored]ty Christmas. No Hawaii trip and no dream super bowl trip. Vida does not care. Please go to your local police department and file a police report. Or call Shantell who is on this page. But please, DO NOT give up. We all have to move forward with criminal charges against her and her crew for stealing hundreds and thousands of dollars.

Very disappointed, I wanted to believe she was really a good person! I hope the same mercy she has shown other God will show her! I bought a vacation package from her. I even spoke with her on the phone and she had the audacity to tell me she would never scam anyone! Well she did to me! I asked her a for a refund and she said yes she would, and the y never answer my text and told me she was sick in the hospital and had trouble with her zelle told me she would give me another package, she messaged me again to tell me she was going through chemo now and I told her can you please just refund the money and you could only imagine all the lies she feed me. I hope everyone is able to get their money back

In September 2023, I was in contact with Vida regarding a vacation package she had posted. Since it was a great deal and I know Vida through a relative, I trusted her and decided to go for it and Zelled Vida the monies. It was supposed to be a surprise Christmas gift for my kids. In the weeks after, Vida did communicate with me and when I requested a time period of dates, she stopped responding. I did see she posted she was in the hospital, she I decided to give her some time to respond. After a few weeks, I messaged her again to no avail. I tried calling her via IG and no answer. I think texted her at 805-815-5448 and the message showed delivered, but no response back. I then called her at that number and no answer. I then went online and found out there were multiple people scammed as well. I filed a report regarding this incident as well.

The same situation happened to me. We have people in common and we know people in the same church. She did not care about misleading and hurting families. I hope she gets whatever is coming her way May God
Bless her kids! They are growing up in a fake lifestyle.

This is absolutely unbelievable, she has scammed my family and claims to be this person who helps others , she is a fraud and needs psychological help! I thought I could trust her knowing that I knew her and her family were a part of a church that I belong to as well but definitely was wrong! She is horrible and does not care about scamming ppl out of money

VIDA GARAY AKA ALINA FRESCAS is a scam artist! She recently went private on social media and is deleting post because people are on to her!

She scammed me for over 2K!

She claims to be a woman of God but is living a lavish lifestyle by stealing from people like us.

How can I connect with you? I have questions regarding Vida if you don't mind?

I paid Vida $340 on 1/20 to provide hair and makeup for my nieces Quinceañera. The DAY BEFORE my nieces event (3/19) Vida canceled due to an emergency. I 100% understood, and was able to find another artist. The issue that we are now having is the refund. My sister and I have asked at least 20 times for a refund. Finally, on (4/7) she sends us $250, but where is the other $90? At this point I've considered this a loss, so here I am to warn others.
⚠️⚠️BE CAUTIOUS. ⚠️⚠️

You should definitely consider suing this person. She has scammed hundreds of people in Ventura county for years now, I’m not sure why she isn’t in jail yet! I’m sorry this happened to you. As a makeup artist amongst others we’ve heard these stories of her scamming people for years. I think it’s time you all take legal matters immediately or else this will continue.
