oh yes I got scammed a few times, so I have lived them and learned. That is why I advised you before not to pay on investments before, and if I advise you to do something is because I know you will stand a good chance to do good.

I think if them sites would be honest and many of the member who ruin it for all, would just work honestly then everyone would do so great, but you know how it is, sad I know.

Over the years I may have lost time...but never money. I never pay for an opportunity to earn.

It took place in a summer afternoon.I was cheated 400RMB(=$65) by two strangers.They are middle-aged.They said they just need a bit money to phone someone to help them.I gave my telephone card to them.Then they told me that they had they wallets stolen in this city.They haven't eaten anything all the day long.They asked for more money to pay for the food and the hotel.They promised they would pay back the exact amount in a week.They looked so tired and so polite that I believed them and gave them the money.But they disappeared and never appeared again.^^^^ I was studying in a university then.I got little money to pay my day.
