Fell for a scam
Hi guys i just really have to get this out of my chest. So 3 days ago I came across a post where I only have to invest 500 and they will make my money grow and I will get the profits immediately and they'll only take 5% of the profits, welp here I am desperate to earn quick money so i fell for it hook, line, and sinker. I know I know that of course it's an obvious scam but they presented proofs that is believable enough especially when you're desperate for money and not only did I lose my money I got into debt hard. It started off with my 500PHP which was the initial investment, then i was told I need another 1,900PHP to activate the gcash wallet pro account, which made me resort to online loans owing a 2,240 debt, after I paid the 1,900PHP fee and my profit was moved to the account I came across another fee which is a transaction pin that cost around 4,200PHP at that time of course I got angry because they didn't tell me that there are lots of hidden fee when they only told me at first that the 500PHP initial investment is the only money I need to give, of course by there I really should've backed off but I was already in too deep and the profit money was very tempting (the profit is 29,000PHP btw), so then again I resorted to multiple online loans (at this point I had 4 online loan apps) and even borrowed money from my relatives. After all that my profit increased to 53,000PHP and I thought things were finally over and not only can pay back my debts which costed me 9,110PHP (with interest), I can also help my family financially, but then again I had to pay another 6,500PHP to activate the pin which I was told is the final step, by then of course I finally snapped backed to reality and stopped this nonsense but it was already too late, i really regretted it but it was already too late. From this experience I also reflected how I have gambling tendencies and also very naive, right now i already paid back 1,450PHP and have about 7,660 debt left. I promise this will really be the last time and I leave their karma to fate.
