Description
Hello, my name is Daniela, I am 26 years old and I am Bolivian. I came to Spain less than a year ago and a few days ago I decided to start a business on Etsy, which is an online shop for selling illustrations, art, crafts and many other things. Unfortunately, I fell victim to a scam from an account that pretended to be Etsy support. I received a message saying that my account
had been deactivated and blocked because they needed to verify my card. I foolishly fell for it and first they made me transfer €499, which they returned to me in a few minutes. Then we continued like this until the amount exceeded €2,000. I thought they would refund me like they did the first time, since that was supposedly the way to prove that I had enough funds on my card to be able to sell on Etsy. The problem now is that that was all the money I had left. I have €0.57 in my account and I have no one in Spain who can help me financially. My family cannot send me money because my country is in crisis and they have no money. I am not asking to recover everything I lost, just a little to survive this month and September. I am desperate and do not know what else to do other than ask for a fundraiser. If you could help me, I would be very grateful. Thank you.
