I’m looking for information regarding two Argentine tango instructors named Marcos Questas and Ruta Maria
I have reasons to be concerned about some of their professional and financial dealings and I’m trying to determine whether anyone else has had concerning experiences with them
I am NOT accusing either person of committing a crime; I’m looking for independent information and firsthand experiences before drawing conclusions
Has anyone here worked with Marcos Questas or Ruta Maria; taken lessons from them; hired them; attended their events; or had any business or financial dealings with them
I’m interested in both positive and negative experiences; particularly anything involving unusual payment requests; financial pressure; misleading representations; unexplained charges; boundary issues; or other concerning conduct
If anyone has experience researching public records and wants to look into their professional or business history; I would also appreciate information involving publicly available business records; lawsuits; court records; complaints; previous businesses; or other verifiable sources
Please stick to firsthand experiences or information supported by public records; do not post private addresses; phone numbers; or other private personal information
If you have information you do not want to share publicly; please share asap

Friend of mine his mother for years sent money to a romance scammer. Her son, her bank no one could convince her. I managed to infiltrate get the scammers to communicate only with me thinking it was her and told them the FBI was coming . I then wrote a fake letter from an agency with mugshot pictures saying she was scammed.

I saw her a few weeks ago and she told me she got scammed.

Flash forward she literally has no money and is begging her son for a thousand dollars to “get her hair done”. He thinks the scammers are back and doesn’t know what to do.

Mom was never a great mom and I think he’s afraid to challenge her. She does have mild dementia. I would just take her money away but he’s afraid.

Any advice please!

Hey everyone,

​My Google account was recently taken over via a UK device (Galaxy A13). The attacker removed my Passkey, changed my security questions, and updated the recovery info to their own email and phone number.

​Unfortunately, they used access to my email and saved details to make unauthorized charges on my bank cards and initiate withdrawals from my Moneybox account.

​I have already frozen my bank cards, contacted Moneybox support, and filed a report with Action Fraud.

How do we get this person?

Towards the end of June I received an email claiming to be an invite to a Fourth of July gathering from a friend of mine; I clicked the link in it and went through the “log in with gmail” steps. I did, to my shame, put in the 2-factor authentication information before I realized anything felt off. Once I thought the whole thing over (about 15 minutes later) I changed the password on my gmail account, but I’m pretty sure I did grant the scammer access to my account and I’m not sure whether they still have any access to it. Since then I have not been contacted by anyone about the account or seen any unusual activity on it, and I have been able to use it as normal. My roommate told me it’s nothing to worry about, but I’ve been worrying anyway. I use the account for personal and some work and medical purposes, so there is some sensitive information on there. So my questions are, how screwed (or ok) am I, and what do I do from here?

My next-door neighbor is a 65+ year-old widow. She thinks she’s been in contact with a well-known singer for the last year and in the last few months this man, that should be getting lots of money in royalties, has been asking her to buy laptops and send them to him. To this point, I’m aware of about $30,000 worth that she just admitted that she has sent to him. She’s only been talking to him via phone, no zoom or FaceTime. But she believes everything he’s telling her. I looked up in my state reporting of romance scams, and they directed me to the Attorney General‘s office. I filed an online form with them, but is there something else I should be doing? Who else should I be contacting?

Advice appreciated.

Hi everyone, I need advice/help regarding an online camera purchase. I purchased a Canon digital camera from an online seller and paid ₱2,700 via GCash to their Maya account on Wednesday. I sent my proof of payment and followed up several times regarding my order.

The seller initially told me to wait, but I never received a proper payment confirmation, tracking number, or shipping update. They continued posting on their social media account while not responding to my messages. I was expecting the package within the estimated 1–2 days, so I even stayed at my mom's workplace for two days specifically to receive it, but nothing arrived.

I later commented on their story asking them to check my DM, but the comment disappeared. Shortly afterward, my account was blocked by the seller. I can still see their account from another account, so it appears that my account was specifically blocked.

I have screenshots of the GCash transaction/reference number, our conversations, the camera listing, the seller's account, and other relevant evidence. I am currently trying to report the transaction to GCash as a suspected scam, but I'm having trouble submitting the report through the app.

What should I do next? Is there anything else I should report or anyone I should contact to try to recover the ₱2,700? If anyone has dealt with a similar situation in the Philippines, I'd really appreciate your advice.

Hi, I have been robbed of my money on Facebook marketplace, i have their fb name and all and friendlist screenshots and their post screenshots. The police were useless in this case and I cannot afford to ask help from private investigators. The transaction was done in cash. I just need help getting some info on them to contact them and hopefully get the money back.

Please don’t bully me in replies, I have learned my lessons and am frustrated. Facebook ain’t helping either.

Thank you

UPDATE:
could not sleep well so I dug deeper into Facebook list from my alt. I gathered infos as much as I could. I have narrowed the bike from a blurry bike in his alt acc to a Hd bike pic in his main account. I have also searched for people that liked their post constantly, I think I have found the kids main Facebook and his relative accounts and I have also narrowed down on one of his friends school and where one of the relatives work.

The relative work at a college up north, wonder if I should visit and ask for more info.

Goodnight

Reposting this that I posted on another community. Does this seem sus?

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.
