I messaged my scammer, my online girlfriend. I started asking her, what's going on? Oh, your money is safe. It's just in the mining pool. Just go ahead and pay the taxes. Maybe I can help you with that. I can help pay some of the taxes for you. There was no chance of me getting my money back. There was no chance of me getting any of it.

Not even my, like, not even like, keep your, keep your bonuses. Give me my money back that I put in. They weren't going to do anything like that. And it was at that moment that I realized this, this is a scam. Of course, I didn't pay the 35,000, didn't have it. I couldn't pay it if I wanted to. And I told them that. So I, so I realized this is, this is some kind of scam.

So I, so I realized this is, this is some kind of scam.

I was angry. I was upset. I mean, I felt like an idiot. I even had thoughts of suicide, you know, at one point because I was starting my life over. And now here I am, not only without money, but $18,000 in debt. And wondering, how am I going to do this now? I tried to call my local police. And of course, they had no clue what was going on. They said there was nothing they could do.

They said there was nothing they could do.

So all kinds of feelings just hit me all at once. When I started thinking about suicide, I realized really quickly that that's not going to help. Whoever took my money at the time, they don't care. They don't care that I kill myself. In fact, it's fine by them. That means I can't talk.

I started looking online for this. They called it liquidity mining. I found it on Reddit. There were other victims as well. I learned pretty quickly that we got a major, major problem on our hands and. From that Reddit group, some of us folks got together. We formed a Facebook group. There's now about 300 of us, mostly victims. There's a few other folks on there.

And it was through that Facebook group that I learned about the global anti-scam organization that I'm a part of today.

Over $25,000.

Over $25,000.

No, not at all. I was told that the average losses of the folks who were joining us, who were finding our organization, I was told the average losses were around $90,000. It would be nothing for some folks to tell us that they lost $100,000, $250,000, half a million, a million dollars. They cashed in 401ks. They sold homes. They got other people involved.

And all this is, it's all part of the scam.

I was amazed. I was, I guess, incredulous because I realized that I'm not the only victim in this. Those of us who've lost money, we're not the only victims. This thing is so far beyond us.
