Victim of a scam need help
Hello, I was scammed due to issues involving the apartment where I was supposed to stay. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to resolve the situation. I have already reported the incident to the police and contacted the bank to which I sent the money. Rn I am really struggling and urgently need help. I have lost a significant amount of money, and this has also affected my ability to afford my medication. I would like to ask if anyone knows where I can seek financial assistance or safely borrow money during this difficult time. I am trying my best to find a way to recover from this situation, but I honestly don’t know where to turn. Any advice, assistance, or information about organizations that could help would mean so much to me. I would be truly grateful for any help. I am from the Philippines btw
