I grew up a poor girl raised by a poor single mother who gave everything so that I could go to school, graduate and become a successful and wealthy woman, I say this to illustrate that I wasn't born with a silver spoon and I worked for it. my whole life. Until I fell for an online romance scam that made me believe in love and I believed it with all my heart and soul. Innocent, I lost 120,000,000 tenge (Kazakhstan tenge). I wanted to send it, but half of the money I borrowed for love. One day after work I talked to my older sister about what happened to me, and 2 days later she told me about South Pole 5 Eyes Recovery. I immediately contacted the company and it only took 5 days to get my money back along with all the details of the scammer. I decided to forgive him and let God decide the rest. Here's a website if your hard-earned money has been stolen.
