February 9, 2025 at 1:25 pmEdit: She was not a scammer. I sent her money through wise – a banking service and she thought this was my business account and I previously sent her money(since the money was from wise, it shows payment from wise). She thought I am the wife of a man who took service from her since both the payments were from wise.There was a lot of confusion.
Now it’s cleared, she returned my money. Here is the post she made about the misunderstanding:https://www.reddit.com/r/TwoXIndia/s/wQIBC15Ww1Yesterday, there was a girl who posted that she was being harassed by the police and her landlord after a failed suicide attempt, trying to pay a 35k fine. I went through her post history and really felt sorry for her. I could relate to her story of running away from home and later ending up with no job and no money. Heck, she even said she had a dog, which I thought might be starving as well.
Anyway, I sent her 15k for her rent and food. I know I shouldn’t have trusted a random stranger on Reddit, but I don’t knowโthis was the first time I ever felt bad enough to help, and even though I am unemployed myself, I thought of helping her. I even offered to help her with referral at my husband’s company. I wasn’t even expecting the money back, but she blocked me after getting it.
Just wanted to rant here, I guess. Anyway, her story was kind of suss now that I think about it, police blackmailing for 35k after she survived a suici** attempt? And landlord just happened to open her room with a spare key, the day she tried to off herself?
Anybody else planning to help her outโjust beware. -

February 9, 2025 at 1:29 pmImagine someone feeling sorry for you and send you 10k today only to create a post tomorrow about how they got scammed by you. Recursion!Jk. Read that post yesterday and it did sound a little suspicious though.

February 9, 2025 at 1:41 pmLot of scammers are active on reddit.Modulus operandi involves posting fake sob story.
You will regularly see fake sob stories in various city bases subreddit, some of them have even fake milap or ketto fund raising.
Don’t believe all sob stories on internet.
Now call 1930 and report cyber fraud

February 9, 2025 at 2:23 pmWhat is the authentication that this is not a scam post? In today’s world scam is literally everywhere. Yeah! the yesterday’s post was kinda more suspicious than this. Because of these kind of scammers real people in need are left out. I watched a video recently accusing ketto and other donation websites of allowing people with fake medical documents to raise money. So. Y’all need to think 100 times before believing something on Internet. -

February 9, 2025 at 4:50 pmWhy are we supporting people who destroy marriages.She said few weeks back she ‘entertained’ few people on reddit. She received money for such ‘entertainment’. Thought OP was wife of husband she ‘entertained’.
Is this what she does as a profession, then when earnings dry up she goes and tries to off herself?! Either way, this…something doesn’t seem right. Best not to think too much about this.
