Some people might call it old format or try to invalidate my loss but I am putting it out here for others to learn from. Getting ripped off your hard earned money is extremely painful. I just lost hundreds of thousands to scammers on telegram who came with ROI business, they paid me the first set and that’s why I became comfortable with throwing in all I had. I even borrowed, only for them to keep asking for more so that I could earn higher. That’s when it dawned on me that they were doing all they could to get as much as they could. I fell for it not because I am stupid and I am trying to forgive myself for it. I tried reporting to the banks involved, the processes felt like a dead end which would come after I have spent more money. If you are into scams, Omo I have no words for you, how comfortable you are deceiving and ripping other people off. Have you ever been scammed? What’s your story like? Maybe if I read from y’all, I might just be able to finally accept my loss and move on. |

justyhere:You succeeded in saying nothing because,you didn't name the platform and the format they used. Your statement here is just vague without you pinpointing anything |

Your greed got the better part of you. This is the popular and old pig butchering format. |

The fact that you're hiding the details—like the amount lost or the platform used—says a lot. It usually means the scam was either driven by pure greed or it was one of those 'too good to be true' deals that anyone should have spotted. I’m willing to bet it’s one of those Temu or 'Like and Get 1,500' task scams. People only get that vague when they know they fell for something cheap and It’s better to just say it as it is so others can learn. |

Jakarta:Yeah I agree. But I mentioned that they paid the first and second ROI. I thought it was legit |

Y’all should at least have empathy. I am grieving my loss, I would appreciate y’all just not making me feel worse |

justyhere:Yeah they paid the first and second, sometimes even 3rd - fifth so they can fully enable the greed button, and disable the sense of reasoning button. |

justyhere:It is wrong to say telegram, they only used the platform,they definitely have their name,these scammers do use different platforms to play their trade like Facebook, Whatsapp,so one wouldn't say Facebook or Whatsapp is a scam |
| Re: SCAM ALERT! I Just Got Scammed: Read So That You Don’t Fall For It Too by justyhere(op): 9:08am On Jan 02 |
Jakarta:Exactly. I really agree with this |
