Scams.
Everyone at some point would have been scammed. I am not the smartest but at some point I would have been scammed too.
Recently I think I have been scammed. There was this click on certain instagram pages and then you get paid. First I thought ok, they are buying clicks so no harm. Few dollars each time. Then they had this task you have to complete. Which is linked to crypto currencies. Okay, the amounts are not too big so you can actually chose the smallest amounts. Then they have this group with you will join and choose the amount and suddenly it became in the thousands. If you don't complete your task, you loose your money. And it has to be prepaid.
Then there is another which I am not sure whether it is a scam but it is called Hostelworld. Where you do bookings for rooms and then suddenly they have these deals where you earn 4% commission. At first too they are small amounts and then suddenly they have bigger amounts and they only give you 24 hours to recharge otherwise your money gets stuck for 6 months inside. Who knows if they are still around after 6 months.
So..I would say when people are in desperation or need they look for outlets to find money. And things like these they suit the seekers needs. Only to be even more broke and desperate after because they have lost whatever they thought could help them get more.
With the world of scammers these days, I wonder how they could live with themselves. Scheming off the poor and making them worse off. Really. I would really like to see them face to face and give them a punch in the face and curse their parents who brought them up!! But normally they are through messengers. And never the real person. Sad.
To think that we want to make the world a better place but it seems that the humans are getting worse instead.
So if you have been scammed before, don't worry. You are not the only one. Treat as a lesson learnt and move on. Money goes around and it will come round to you too.
With the internet these days it is hard to tell what is true and what is not. So just be careful and skeptical instead of just believing.
Have a good weekend!!
