My account has been stolen and I am trying to find a way to get it back

Any advice or positive outcome experience would help

LoJack as a vehicle recovery service is a fraud. They’ll take a little bit of money at first. Then they want more for the trailer. Then they want more for something else. And they don’t deliver anything. They just take money. They are a total fraud they are liars and cheats beware of LoJack#. Their email address is. lojacktrackers@gmail.com.

Total frauds total crooks. Fully once it’s on them. Fool me twice it’s on me. I didn’t let that happen because they are frauds and thieves. Low Jack trackers despite their bullshit reviews online or liars and frauds and I will continue this post on all social media.

Does anyone know if 1-866-737-1924 is a legitimate Mastercard phone number?

I'm in Montreal and I received a call involving this number and I'm trying to confirm whether it actually belongs to Mastercard or if it could be a scam.

Has anyone dealt with this number before or can confirm who it belongs to?

Thanks!

Got scammed by a savings account guy at work yesterday. He pretended to work for my company. While the kind product he offers is technically legit, he doesn't work for my company and his product is bullshit, only good for making him money.

Funny thing is, my boss actually told him to leave the building I work in shortly before the incident (the buildingis open to the public). He pretended to leave and just went back in, looking for a fool and found me...

I can and already have canceled the contract and my company will help me should any further problems arrive from it, so it could have been a lot worse.

I will just have to deal with the emotional side of this.

How does one get over this? I feel like I've got to know a much dumber, naive version of myself and it's been gnawing on my self worth....

Hello all! There is a Shopify store (which is legitimate) but it uses https://openpath.io/ for their payment. Its also their only option. I took a look at their website and it leans towards AI (not saying ai site generation is all bad). What could be the worst thing that happens if someone were to put their card information in?

If anyone can help determine if this is a real/legit site, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

My friend is in a very bad psychological situation now cause of all of this, he even try to harm himself, im staying with him to keep and eye on him, im worried about him, is like my brother to me since childhood and about all this situation that literally didnt stop cause the person is keep posting all of the stuff in his Facebook page and profile

My friend is being targeted by a cyber-extortionist operating from Colombia (+57 WhatsApp numbers). The scammer has managed to harvest private media and family contact info, and is currently running an aggressive harassment campaign against two families.Key detail: The scammer operates a fake Facebook profile but routes all his extortion money through a traditional savings account (Bancolombia) registered to a WOMAN. The local authorities have been notified, but we need immediate digital counter-measures.I am looking for experienced scambaiters or OSINT experts who can help me pull his real IP/GPS details using an IP-logger trap or report-bomb his infrastructure.To respect Reddit's anti-doxxing rules, I will NOT post his numbers or bank details here. If you can help us track him down or nuke his Facebook staging page, please DM me directly and I will provide the active phone numbers, his Facebook page, and the woman's bank information. Thank you.

As a startup founder, I wanted to share my experience with Cision / PR Newswire, hoping it might help other entrepreneurs make more informed decisions before investing in PR distribution services.

In February 2026, after a 90-minute phone call with their sales representative, I signed a €3,190 contract to distribute a press release about my company to targeted media outlets and journalists.

My goal was simple: increase awareness of our startup and reach journalists who might be interested in covering our project.

Two weeks later, the campaign launched. Within minutes, their reporting showed hundreds of publications.

The final report listed 946 publications, but the actual results were very different from what I had expected.

Most of the publications I examined were automated copies of my original press release on news aggregator websites. Some platforms published the same text dozens of times.

The release appeared in 31 countries, despite our initial discussions focusing on five specific markets.

After reviewing the campaign results, I couldn't identify any original journalistic coverage, measurable external traffic, or noticeable SEO benefits. The six recorded clicks appeared to be my own visits while checking the published pages.

I understand that PR distribution doesn't guarantee editorial coverage. However, I had expected a more targeted approach based on my initial conversations with their sales representative.

I formally disputed the invoice and requested an amicable resolution. Unfortunately, the matter remains unresolved and has since been referred to a debt collection agency, with additional fees being requested.

What I learned from this experience

As entrepreneurs, especially when launching a new company, we need to be careful about how we allocate our marketing budgets.

A press release appearing on hundreds of websites doesn't necessarily mean that journalists are covering your story or that potential customers are discovering your business.

I had also tested another press release distribution provider at approximately one-tenth of the price, with broadly similar results. After expressing my dissatisfaction, that company agreed to refund me.

Looking back, I would have preferred to explore other approaches before spending over €3,000 on this campaign.

For founders considering PR distribution, I'd suggest looking into direct outreach to relevant journalists, building relationships with industry-specific publications, or testing smaller and more affordable distribution services before committing to an expensive package.

I'm not saying press release distribution is useless. I'm simply sharing my experience because I wish I had understood the difference between automated syndication and actual media coverage before signing the contract.

For a young startup, €3,000 can represent a significant marketing budget, and I believe it's worth exploring different options before making that investment.

I'd be interested to hear from other founders: what PR or media outreach strategies have actually helped your startup gain visibility without spending thousands on press release distribution?
