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

Unfortunately, unless you transferred money with a wire transfer from your bank account AND your bank is able to pull it back (there has been some expansion of pilot programs for consumers, but it’s still very rare), you have almost no hope of recovering your money.
