Almost fell for CBDAO but it was on bottom of shortlist.

>>30038201
I think the scammers send themselves money on purpose to legitimize their wallet so they can scam naive r-words

I invested in Apollo, a shitcoin whose CEO now puts up videos on YouTube claiming he has won an election in a fictional country and plans to run the entire country's economy on it.

I’ve never been scammed. Riskiest investment I’ve made is Statera, but at this point we can all agree that was not a scam. It’s a volatile coin, and I put money in knowing this, but it’s not a scam.

I put money into the stock market for a few years.
Never again.

I feel for Wynaut. I entered thinking it would be scam. I initially only put in $100, then after farming was released I put in another $100. At some point I was I had made $800 profit. And I started to believe then they rug pulled meowth. I believed them at first, I kept my funds in and then the second rise happened. Followed by another rug pull.

Honestly the coin could have been something else. If it wasn't a rug pull they would have been listed in on coingecko by now. But they're not.

Lost almost half of my portfolio because of XRP SEC lawsuit, done a 4-5x since so not too worried, but still hurts knowing that I could have at least 2x the money I have now.

Yeah that was a huge discouragement. I went another route, which wasn't much better. After $55,000 in debt, I graduated only to find 0 IT jobs for people with degrees and basic experience being a student tech. I decided to get an IT cert and instantly got offers for jobs paying $75,000+ in the midwest. College is a fucking scam.

I worked hard in life and created a small business from scratch and improved my community

>>30041837
The language they taught and still teach to this day is Java at my State University. They are so fucking far behind its unreal. A Big Data professor posted on linkedin about how he was worried going to Python is the wrong move for his unvierstiy so he wont support it. The Networking class I took was basically "Comptia Network+" but without the certification. Absolute garbage.

>>30041837
Fucking idiot. You dumb zoomer faggots are even fomo on education lol. Should start calling y’all doomers

Got scammed in runescape when i was like 7. Nevr forget.

>>30038333

>>30038201
when i was younger and didnt understand how computers worked i bought a laptop from Harvey Norman, they talked me into some finance option with certegy ezipay, an absolute scam. it sounded like it was too good to be true, basically "top of line" laptop and if it so much as got a scratch on it they would replace it brand new. all bullshit of course the laptop was a $750 at most piece of mid range boomer tier shit that i calculated with interest over time ended up costing me about $3k. i was fooled into thinking such a well known chain store would be above ripping off kids for chump change, learned from that though that i needed to fucking educate myself about shit before i buy, recently just rebuilt my newest PC for around $300, havent touched a credit card/financer since

I made a really good friend in RS when I was like 10. As we grew older and played less, we added each other on MSN to keep in touch, but in the end we didn't really talk much. A couple of years later he messaged me. We caught up a bit and he made up some story about how he lost his RS account and wanted to borrow my account so he could make some money to get started with a new one. Having been really good friends with him, I trusted him. Turns out he just took all my shit and blocked me. Wasn't a big deal since I wasn't playing the game, but it hurt a bit. If you're out there, Vincent, fuck you.

Richfags aren't necessarily smart, especially if they've been born with a silver spoon in their mouths. We don't live in a meritocracy, never did.

All the info they give it that they have your email, I'll post some of it

I have to share bad news with you.
Approximately few months ago I have gained access to your devices, which you use for internet browsing.
After that, I have started tracking your internet activities.

Here is the sequence of events:
Some time ago I have purchased access to email accounts from hackers (nowadays, it is quite simple to purchase such thing online).
Obviously, I have easily managed to log in to your email account ().

One week later, I have already installed Trojan virus to Operating Systems of all the devices that you use to access your email.
In fact, it was not really hard at all (since you were following the links from your inbox emails).
All ingenious is simple. =)

This software provides me with access to all the controllers of your devices (e.g., your microphone, video camera and keyboard).
I have downloaded all your information, data, photos, web browsing history to my servers.
I have access to all your messengers, social networks, emails, chat history and contacts list.
My virus continuously refreshes the signatures (it is driver-based), and hence remains invisible for antivirus software.

Likewise, I guess by now you understand why I have stayed undetected until this letter...

While gathering information about you, I have discovered that you are a big fan of adult websites.
You really love visiting porn websites and watching exciting videos, while enduring an enormous amount of pleasure.
Well, I have managed to record a number of your dirty scenes and montaged a few videos, which show the way you masturbate and reach orgasms.

If you have doubts, I can make a few clicks of my mouse and all your videos will be shared to your friends, colleagues and relatives.

Classic pajeetery

why would they try to explain it?
It's common lying behavior to over explain something when no questions are asked.

It's an attempt to get overly technical with terms the average computer user vaguely kinda understands to confuse and frighten them into paying. Usually the email also includes one of your old legitimate passwords that was scraped from one of the hacked website dumps, which is then backed up with that overly techy bullshit jargon.

I tried to work for the government but it was full of niggers and retards.

>>30039714
Lmao why is YAM going back up? Did they fix it?

Whale alerts are fucking retarded. You can't tell anything by just seeing the amount and the wallet it went to. This could be the scammers themselves trying to make it look like it's a legit wallet. Small brains freak out about whale alerts.

>>30038201
I probably got scammed in rune scape a couple of times back in the day.

3.5 weeks ago i realized that the 25,000 i transferred to a forex broker wasnt a forex broker it was a scammer.

Im never gonna see that 25,000 again.

Crushes u .
Makes u question the point, why r u doing what ur doing.

All ur enthusiasm and motivation, as ur ivory tower comes crashing down.

Maybe money is an illusion not important,

Its best to appreciate the world love life and the universe and what it has to offer.

I would escape the system if i could.

Forex isn't real please never do that again
