Whats the worst scam that got you?

[marcuz]

some dude told me he had a bunch of dreamcast on deck for sale for 200 at his house. me & my breh walked a few blocks up to his spot to pick it up. i gave him the money, he went inside, and after 10 minutes, i realized something wasn't right. we opened the door and it was a vacant apartment with the back door wide open. i was mad but i respected how cut and dry the hustle was. taught me to never trust these nikkas w/o seeing the product first as well.

I saw a lot of nikkas promoting wake up now on here so I thought that shyt was legit. I ended up losing so much money

Wait.

I can understand not making money, but how did you lose money?

I got scammed out of about 15k in a pyramid scheme back in 2001.

He didn't "lose" money, he just wasn't money motivated enough to return his investable ya dig

Thought I was getting a job, they flew a bunch of us out to CA for the weekend for training and put us up in this hotel and gave us all the food and drinks we could consume, gave us computers and fax machines and like 2k signing bonus, but we had to sign a lease for the equipment (which turned out to be for like 15k on some BS "intellectual property" shyt).

Long story short, we got fukked. Dude behind it went to jail tho so... .

Got 9k of it back. So really only lost 6, but I had just graduated college and it set me back a ways.

That N.A.C.A. shyt. It was peanuts but it could been more. A nikka was just tryna get that house.

Explains why I am more skeptical of everything nowadays.
