Hey all, i do website desiging for businesses, the best and lowest i can charge is 400 AED for a fully mobile / web responsive site with SEO. Dm if anyone needed! 😊💕

Help me guys, what do I do now? Obviously my accounts are locked, I've filed a police report but what do I need the exchanges to do to help me recover funds if possible.

Story:

I always though it could never happen to me, I'm too smart for that I thought. But this morning, I got phished.

I'd received a convincing looking email over night from Google saying a recovery email had been added to my account. This got me worried, so I investigated. I followed the link in the email (I know, what an idiot!) - I thought it was OK because it was an official google email and a google link.

I had to then login with user/pass and 2FA and thought nothing of it because it was Google.

This is when everything went wrong and fast. It was Google Sites, a service where people can create their own webpages, I just entered my login details and 2FA into a convincing fake Google page hosted on Google.

Everything was backed up on my Google, my Authenticator Codes, Passwords in Google Password manager. The hackers quickly figured I had a Kraken and Coinbase accounts, got the password, logged in and drained it all. They added new withdrawal addresses and confirmed them via my email and they had the 2FA from the google account. The exchanges put up no resistance, not even bothered a new IP is draining all my funds to new withdrawal addresses.

Yes, I'm an idiot for keeping my money on an exchanges and backing up everything on Google! Helpful advice for what I can do now is appreciated.

Where are the good places for hair cuts in dubai? I feel like lately all the prices have gone a bit too high and I just want something reasonable around 200-220AED.
I also stay around Al barsha 1 so if anyone knows any good options not too far from here would be great!

I'm planning to take BA hons Accounting and Finance and I wanted to know how the grading system works. Is it super hard to score Grades 1-4? And are there any written exams or is it solely based on assignments? Is the scholarship maintenance policy really strict?

Please no negative comments without a valid reason 💖 Any information would be really helpful 😊

I recently saw a good price and payment plan for a building from tiger properties but have heard a lot of mixed reviews about their quality. Anybody wants to give their 2 cents on this?

At what time do you generally wake up during the work week, and what are the things you do before staring work?

Hello,

I trust you’re keeping well!

I moved to Dubai in 2025 and I work as an HR for a IT company. I am from Himachal Pradesh, India. My family is directly involved in garlic farming in the Sirmaur region of Himachal Pradesh, which is known for producing high-quality mountain garlic with excellent taste, strong aroma, and long shelf life.

We are looking to supply premium farm-direct Sirmaur garlic to importers, wholesalers, distributors, supermarkets, restaurants, and food trading companies in the UAE.

About Our Garlic:
• Farm-direct supply from Sirmaur, Himachal Pradesh
• Naturally grown in Himalayan climate conditions
• Strong flavor and rich aroma
• Good bulb size and premium quality sorting
• Long storage life suitable for export and wholesale distribution
• Fresh harvest with consistent quality control
• Competitive pricing between AED 3–5/kg approximately (INR 70–120/kg depending on quantity and grade)

We can discuss:
• Bulk order quantities
• Packaging requirements
• Export logistics and shipping arrangements
• Long-term supply partnerships
• Sample shipments if required

We are interested in building reliable and long-term business relationships in the UAE market by providing quality produce directly from farmers at competitive prices.

Please let me know if you would be interested in discussing further. I would be happy to share product photos, specifications, and pricing details based on your requirements.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello everyone!

I’m a student from Singapore and I enjoy collecting postcards. I would be very grateful to receive postcards from anywhere in Dubai. 🙂

If postcards aren’t available, I’d also really appreciate a greeting card, city card, or even a small souvenir.

(like a keychain, rock, local snack, flag, ornament, cap, T-shirt, or handmade craft).

This is for my personal collection, and not for any commercial purpose.

If you’re willing to help, please leave a comment and I’ll share my mailing address with you.

Thank You so much, and warm greetings from Singapore!

So here I am… looking for cool people to become friends with.
If you like random conversations, dark humor, memes, business talks, food, travel, or replying fast for 2 days and then disappearing for 1 week — we’ll probably get along 😂
DMs open ✌️

Hey everyone,
I just arrived in the UAE with my two friends. We’re currently in Sharjah and thinking about moving to Dubai soon.

We wanted to ask if it’s realistic to find a studio apartment in Dubai in the range of 2000–2500 AED/month? Which areas should we look at?

Also, since we’re new here, what are the main things we should be careful about in the UAE — especially regarding renting, jobs, transport, scams, or daily life in general?

Any advice would really help us 🙌

Hey everyone,

Hi all,

Myself I'm a technical founder. Currently I'm looking for a PM role. I have 3 yrs of work experience in a fortune 500 company based in Switzerland

Pls let me know if somebody can provide me with a referral.

Thanks in advance

Im a 36 year old single man and I've lived in dubai for almost a decade now. I dont go out to chill as I dont relate well to most people. I often think I have either narcissistic personality disorder or bipolar disorder or maybe both. I like to think I'm more deep than most people around me but then again, don't most of us do !

I have an extremely high sex drive and think I may be some kind of a sex addict too. I love reading, writing poetries but the idea of getting out to bed to do either seems like a task too heavy too be borne !

I'm an atheist and often associate the lack of association to some form of supernatural as one of the key elements fueling my misery. That and no session of achievement yet and nothing concrete to show for the last 3 decades of my life.

Can anybody relate?
