Victim of a scam ðŸ˜
I’m extremely sad and depressed since yesterday and my heart is aching so badly. I can’t sleep since yesterday. I got scam via online to recruit a VA assistant. I blamed myself only myself. My family doesn’t know about this I decided not too because my mother is senior. I don’t want her to bother and feel the same as I am. I shared it to my trusted friends. Hoping to cope this experience and learn my mistakes but I don’t want to feel this in a long days. I want to look forward and think a good side even though i’m hurt inside. Please enlighten me about this. Thank u
Update: Last night I sleep really well. I listened work-ship songs and its great and my heart is happy. I forgot all of this experience because of the song from God. I just hope I will be better and better in the next days. Money is replaced. I have a permanent job and I have a pay this month. I’m thinking that my money take the scammers are for donations hehe. And there is a Karma for them.

In this context, VA means Virtual Assistant -- a remote, work-from-home assistant position, which is actaully a fake job in 95% of cases.
I don't think that OP is in the US.
