The alarming rate of cybercrime is becoming a thing of concern in the society as on a daily base people are being ripped off their hard earned money. The worst of all is that this money is mostly used for something that has no value, squandering the money going to clubs, unnecessary vacations, and even used it to buy hard drugs. All this is as a result of desiring a luxurious lifestyle yet refusal to work.
What a lot of people failed to realized is that every good thing comes with a price and only then we would learn to appreciate what we have but you see that "price" is what the majority is not willing to pay thus cybercrime and all other dirty shits they do comes into play. Being a victim of cybercrime I for one can personally state how devastating it was for me as at the time of occurrence. I went into depression and was literally becoming a shadow of myself in just a little space. The ones foodie lost all appetite for food and mere looking at me from a distance you could tell have lots a good amount of weight when I was not even prepared to lose any. I mean all thanks to my parents and siblings who stepped in right from day one it happened and even helped cleared the debt.
One amazing thing about this guy's is that they are super intelligent leaving no trace of their atrocities behind because when the incident occurred we had to employ the service of a tracker yet nothing good came out of it only then I just had to accept my fate.
When I thought I had seen it all with my experience, then again it happened to my brother's friend in school. His neighbor gave him his house rent to keep for him because of fear of touching the money for what it was not budgeted for and believed giving it to his neighbor was the best. Of course it was a good idea but here is what happened. Coupled with the fact my brother's friend had a good amount of money in his account, he woke up that very day with a smiling face only to be greated with debit alerts. He quickly hurried up to the bank and on his way he complained bitterly how banks have not been effectively carrying out their duties not knowing it was a different case entirely. He requested for a statement of account and before it was printed out the last debit came making his account balance looking like that of a radio station. Finally when it was printed out their was no valid trace of to who's account the money was transferred to.
The situation was not in any way funny as he was not just crying alone for his money but that of his neighbor who entrusted his funds with him. Lucky him, his neighbor was kind enough and asked him to only raised half of the money when he can. For sure it wasn't easy on him but glad he later overcame that trying period.
All this experience taught me to be extremely careful with my details as even the less cared information can be a great tool in the hands of cyber predators.
