I Got Scammed $1,080 Today - My Story - Steemit is all I got Left
Hi Steemit, I Just lost everything. Everything I have worked hard for has been taken. I trusted them based on the many previous reviews and have done small order with him before. But today was a different story. I decided I should do thing big and invest in his service and i was betrayed. How can I be so god dam stupid. Just because i made some easy money while steem rose to the sky doesn't mean rest of the path is the same.
** Sorry, I got really emotional and somewhat depressed, tried but couldn't put myself in front of a camera, hence a stock image, maybe in an update post*
Looking back at the situation from few hours on, I ask my self how can I be so gullible and going after the big fish I lost everything.
I didn't have a lot of money to invest, (me being a full time student) on bittrix so i invested the $700 dollar i had in my bank then as you know steemit got hacked and the price went down, I was more than happy with my. I was no experienced investor and market looked very unstable so I looked around on forums and chat rooms other ways of investing with lower risk then i came across a guy who takes your BTC and invest and makes a profit. And gives you back 10% more. At first it looked very sketchy but then lots of positive reviews flowed in and I became interested. My first trade was of 0.5 BTC and it all went fine - Picture Below
Then I sent 1.62 BTC and the user goes offline and some time later gets banned on the forum. I just paid a thief all my money I had. The first question that imposed was how on earth am I going to explain this to my family ? My mind was filled with questions, I couldn't stay in front of my computer and shut everything down and started walking outside with no clear intention. After many hours of consideration I have decided to tell my father, he has all the right to know what happened since its money and i will take full responsibility. Only only real option is steemit community.
You will learn from this and grow!, don't worry bro i have lost much more and bounced back!
How do you start from nothing,
Only though mistake does one truley learn. Am more mad at myself for being gullible since something like this can be easily avoided
It won't be easy to start with nothing, but it's certainly possible.
I have gone from 60 dollars a week from govermenet to having 1.5btc in steem!
just surrond yourself in steem, trade it, buy it, sell it, discuss it,any of the 4 will enrich you :)
Good luck getting your money back , hope that this post can make it happen.
1.62BTC is long gone, Just feels so hard keeping everything contained inside me. Just know someone , steemit is there to listen
That $700 is a lot of money, but a year or even 5 years from now you will be in a better place financially especially as you are studying higher education, and you wont feel any pain over the lost $700. Dont worry about it pal, keep your chin up, you live and you learn. Shit happens.
thanks buddy
Hopefully you can get something from this post and you can begin to recover. In the future, you should be much more careful. You can't trust anybody with your funds online.
