I got scammed $100 through this community

This is the post where I fell into a trap. I was looking for AI tools at a discounted price recently, as I am not financially stable, and this guy replied with an affordable offer for Cursor. The scammer's profile showed a 1-year-old Reddit age; he chatted politely and had good English grammar, so I thought he was legitimate. I was told he obtained these accounts through college hackathons and wanted to sell them because he is not using them and needed the money for his college work. I thought it was a win-win situation for both parties and sent him $100 right away.

He deleted his account as soon as he got the money. I felt blank. US $100 is huge for me in my currency. I know people seek discounts because they don't have the full amount to spend. If $200 is nothing to you, you pay the full price and don't fall for these traps. And I know the scammer also needs money; that's why they do these things, showing poor, huge things, and robbing them.

Sorry, I am so sad that I lost my hard-earned money, which led me to write all this. Don't fall for these types of traps. These vouchers and coupons don't exist.
