Just Got Scammed

[scaleless_serpentin]

I've always prided myself on how careful I am, questioning how anyone would fall for such obviously scammy tactics online.

And now, I just got scammed. Thought I found a better price for my medication, and right as the transfers went through, my brain finally decided to kick in. Worst part is, it wasn't my own money, but my mom's. It isn't an insignificant amount, and what little trust she had in me just got chopped away.

Spiraling heavily right now, and I have no one to talk to who won't chastise me for being a dumbass, and rightfully so. Right now I just need to feel like I'm not the only one out there.

Maybe i'm wrong but when someone's down it's easier to scam him/her....you're not a bad person , i am a damn good academic and don't worry , what they try to do everyday is making me feel stupid to keep their status of so called intelligent people , it's their badness and malevolent soul ... you maybe are a bit naive as all we that suffer for love and trust....i found a bit of relief reading the 48 laws of power ...it helped

Can't speak for your mom's reaction but getting scammed around medication is nothing to feel ashamed about IMO... medication shouldn't be so hard to get or so expensive you struggle to afford it, and shame on people who abuse such a situation.

It happens to the best of us.
Contact the bank, they have fraud departments for this reason.
Hope it works out for you.
