Back in early 2022 I had a Facebook account that I sent all of my newborn sons photos to go free up space on my phone. Low and behold the account got hacked. I searched and searched for a way to get my account back, but nothing worked. Not even Facebook believed me. Had a friend recommend a "good" hacker they had seen on Instagram. Sure why not. There's good and bad in everything? Right? ..... In this case wrong. We talked back and forth for a bit and they gave me a price which needed to be paid in BTC. Ok cool I had dabbled in the crypto market. So I paid the asking price and waited. While waiting. It crossed my mind to ask since they wanted to be paid in BTC. What did they know about the crypto market..... crazy enough he worked for a company that traded and could surely help me make some extra money to help with my new little family. GREAT!!!!!
So I jumped in head first. He was helping me regain all my son's first days. This guy was legit. We chatted off and on and every now and then he would ask if I wanted to top up....meaning buy a little more (weekends we're great for crypto trading) so I'd add money here and there. Started talking about withdrawal time. And we set a date of December 24th 2022. Mind you I was given access to all my accounts held by him and could see the changes at anytime. Then I started getting hit with withdrawal fees. Which I paid. Moving on to Dec 23 2022. Had a phone call that day. Everything was set. Tomorrow was going to be the big day!!
Dec 24th hits and I can't get in touch with anyone. So I start to sweat a little bit figure it's the holidays so I'll be patient. Midnight rolls around.... nothing..... now I'm really worried. I've given everything I could to this so that I could possibly stop working and be at home with my son and watch him grow..... I'm sick to my stomach and can't eat. December 28th. I get a message from a (coworker) saying my investment guy (Franklin) has been in a bad wreck and is in a coma. So I instantly feel horrible and want to help. They claim they need money to fix his phone that was damaged in the wreck and then I will get paid.... once again here I want to help so I start sending again. Again. Never paid.
Early into 2023 Franklin has amazingly came out of his coma and is trying to find me so I can get paid. But now he has a gang after him wanting their money he was investing and they have taken his laptop and phone that have all my funds on them. They are asking for a large sum of money to get him his stuff back .....once again. I paid. Gets all his stuff back. And it's locked out where they tried to access it. So he must go on the dark web and buy stuff to get back into it....once again I paid...
Time to get paid again comes around and he disappeared again!!!!. The very next the same (coworker) messaged me and said he had taken off with everything but they could help me get my money if I could provide a wallet address and send more money.....stupid I know but I paid it.
Hooray we hacked his account and we have transferred everything to you. I now have 10,000 BTC.....I won't lie. I cries thinking I was finally set and could be dome with all this and be the father I wanted to be instead of working in a factory 12 hours a day 10:30am - 11pm. Go to withdraw.... nothing happens.... I reach back out to the guy who hacked Franklin's stuff. And guess what.... you need to pay even more to have access to the funds. Finally I reach out to Coinbase where the 10,000 BTC are. And ask them to unfreeze my funds. I had read that you don't need to pay a fee to access your funds in your wallet. They did some research to find that my wallet was full of FAKE BTC.....
At this point I'm low....so low earth worms are using my head to get stuff off their top shelf. I have given everything to a scammer to better my family and have gone in debt for this....now I have 50 bucks to my name. When I tell you I felt horrible when I saw my family I would cry in the shower for hours after work in hopes they would be asleep when I got out. My wife didn't know how much I had lost. But I had an idea where I had written it all down while they were out of town. 180K maybe more. 2 years of base salary gone....... she found the paper where I had written all the money down. And let me tell you....it was an ugly day. Still is. I turned to prayer.... my Granny always told me "when you don't know where to go or what to do, just pray. It'll happen." So I did. I made the promise to my wife that I would fix what I had done.
Started seeing crypto recovery ads in my feed on Instagram and Facebook. So what the hell what would a message hurt...needless to say I went through a ton of shady conversations until I had a chat with Mr. Jad Morris. Keep in mind I'm still very skeptical at this point after all I've been through. But he took the time to talk to me and didn't push the business on me. Turns out he had been in the same boat as me. More talking with him about all that had taken place and I decided ... this guy actually takes the time to talk with me and actually went above and beyond to help me get my business up and going. Who does that in today's world????
Once I agreed to jump in I then met Teresa. I swear she has to have been born with enough patience to make the Pope look angry. She has answered any and every question I've had along the way and never once complained. Truly a Gold star person along with Jad. And now to top it all of I've actually got a check deposited in my business account from and actual sale????? It works!!! Still waiting to hear back from the CPA about amending my taxes to get my loss back. But by what she's told me I'll be happy.
To sum it all up I must say. If you have been scammed and want to get back to where you were before all the shady stuff started. Give Jad and Teresa a chance. They believed in me when my own wife didn't. And I'm now seeing what I hope to be is the top of this hole I dug myself into. I can sleep at night and actually enjoy my life again. And this is only the beginning. I'm just a dirty Ole welder with no computer experience of any sort outside of emails. And it's working for me. So as I said before give em a chance.
My name is Kirill Mogilev. Between August and November 2023, I was scammed out of a total of $150,000 in cryptocurrency by individuals who invited me to participate in an online investment scheme involving day-trading of stocks and commodities.
After these scammers ceased communication with me in November 2023, I was approached by numerous "agencies" claiming they could help me recover my lost assets through various schemes. Unfortunately, after trying a few of these services, I discovered that their primary interest was to collect upfront payments from me without providing any real assistance.
Since encountering an advertisement and having a conversation with the Ascended Wealth Creation team (and subsequently becoming one of the co-investors in the business), I have been able to recover $40,000 in tax credits by filing losses from scam investments on my tax returns ($30,000 federal and $10,000 state).
I am now collaborating with the Ascended Wealth team to develop this organization into a premier clearinghouse for individuals looking to transition from being victims of scammers to becoming sustainable business owners. The support and expertise of Ascended Wealth Creation have been invaluable, and I am confident that we are building a resource that will help many others navigate and overcome similar challenges.
Between January and March of this year (2024), I was a victim of a military romance scam that cost me
$11,000. I bit “hook, line and sinker,” for this man’s lies and manipulations. He even asked me to do ID.me in
order for him to make me his beneficiary in the event he died while overseas with the USAF. He then used my social security number to file a $700,000 income tax return in my name! Thank God the IRS reached out to me, and they put a halt to that. Now my SS# is on the dark web and have to freeze my credit reports and put
a fraud alert on them as well. When I realized he was going to ask for more, I blocked and deleted him, and
reported the incident to the FBI’s Internet Crime Division.
I began to look at online sites (primarily Facebook) that other victims used to chat about their experiences, and saw that one woman had very positive remarks about a woman from IC3, a division of the FBI, who helped her get all of her money back! I contacted the woman who posted the comment via private message and she repeated how great her outcome was, and she urged me to get in touch with the woman.
In early April, I made contact with “Dana at IC3” via WhatsApp, shared my story and numerous screenshots of
documents, bank deposits, photos of my scammer, and she assured me that she would take my case. Two
days later she contacted me and asked me to send various forms of payment to people who would help
recover my funds. As my focus was entirely about getting money back, I eagerly responded to her requests for
gift cards in $500 increments until I spent $4600 total, from a credit card cash advance, $1000 on another
credit card and the rest on my debit card, wiping out my finances. She finally promised me I would get my
money back that evening; but when I checked back with her a few hours later, she wrote, “You need to get
another $1000 in gift cards.” And that was the last I heard of her! I wrote back with some choice words for
her – I was done. I was scammed twice in a row to the tune of $15,600, and for days I was angry for being so ignorant and for becoming a scam victim! During my lifetime, I traveled, attended college, was well-read, had a great career, and thought I was smart and experienced enough in life to know if I was being lied to, or “catfished.” Putting others first was one of my passions. Little did I know I came across on the dating site as an easy mark with a big letter “L” on my forehead. I was humiliated and my self-esteem took a huge nosedive. I was hurting financially as well. I doubt I will ever be able to trust being in a relationship ever again. These thoughts and emotions go hand-in-hand with being a victim. A couple of weeks later, I was scrolling through Facebook on my phone, and saw an advertisement and video for Ascended Wealth Creations, and began listening to Jad Morris talk about his company and how they help
scam victims recover. There was a link to click to provide my contact information for an appointment, so I set one up for the following week. The meeting I had with Jad Morris and Teresa Sobrino resulted in me buying
my own business helping other victims, and I will be able to recover my scammed funds via a tax credit! (If
you didn’t know there was a way to do this through the IRS and your CPA, you need to call us now!) as well
as deduct my business expenses! Jad offered me an opportunity to call and interview people who responded
to his ad and schedule them for an appointment with a scam recovery consultant. Now I’m in a great position
to help scam victims.
For me this was a big first step in recovering my self-esteem and confidence, and it will be for you, too. The owners of Ascended Wealth Creations and A1 Web Creations are geniuses and I am so happy to be a part of these great organizations.
