Speaking from experience last year may, I had a bad encounter. I was scam , well the bad part was I had peoples money too, Which landed me in debit. I was faced with people who where telling me to have my revenge. But is it worth it, I Know how I felt those period and would never pray someone have the same feeling.
But my question is, who is to be blamed. Is it the scammer or the person scammed. Technology has so advance that with someone have your bank card, they can do what ever. That why I ask is it you who gave out the information or the person who has decided to eat your labour.
For me I think I live by the golden rule "what ever you would want men to do to you, do even so to them".
Again i ask is there life with out regret.
What your experience about scam?
If you have any means to go after the scammer, please don't hesitate, crime fighting involves collective effort by all. If the scammer is not stopped, some other person's will fall victim, so it would have been better if you used law enforcement agencies to go after them.
Just imagine, with laws that have punishment, people still disobey it, how much more a mere golden rule, scammer don't have regret whatever they do, as long as they succeed, that's their own golden rule, it's good to always go after them whenever the opportunity knocks.
