Are Tiger Woods and Rachel Uchitel victims of financial fraud? Looks like they could be.  According to a report by US Magazine, Rachel Uchitel makes claims that the "source" that told the National Enquirer of the Tiger Woods affair was allegedly paid $25,000 for the story.  The worst part is, the story isn't true.

Rachel Uchitel claims that the "source" that sold the story had a personal vendetta, has engaged in prostitution and drug abuse, and misinterpreted information she may have heard.  Rachel Uchitel handles VIP clients at her night club, and admits she may have mentioned Tiger's name, but only in a professional manner.

Rachel Uchitel feels horrible about how Elin Woods feels, because the rumors aren't true.  Rachel Uchitel has also offered to take a lie detector test.

For $25,000 someone may have ruined Rachel Uchitel and Tiger Woods' lives.  Even though the rumors may not be true, the fact will stick in people's minds for many years.   By leaking the story, they have opened a can of worms - including more mistresses and alleged mistresses stepping forward.

Rachel Uchitel has sought the assistance of celebrity attorney Gloria Allred.  Seeking the assistance of an attorney is always recommended when you are the victim of a crime.  If the allegations aren't true, the perpetrator accepted cash to tell a lie. I am sure Gloria Allred will get to the bottom of it.
