So disappointed...

It’s been more than a week since Corey promised to return the remaining $7,900 by September 9th, but so far, I’ve only received two transactions: $100 on September 2nd and $1,000 on September 5th. There’s still $6,900 outstanding, and despite his promise, I haven't received any further payments or progress on it. I was hopeful after hearing from him again, but now I’m left feeling so disappointed and frustrated. The delays and broken promises are really wearing me down. I trusted someone, and now I’m questioning that trust more than ever.

Finally!

Corey has just reached me with a different email address. He may lost his phone number and access to his old email address. I am glad that I got my 100 CAD back now. And he promised me that he would transfer the remaining amount of 7,900 to me by the 9th Set of 2024. I really appreciate that. I hope that I misunderstood Corey. And I hope that human nature is good. Thank you everyone for reaching me for the useful information. 

Canada: Paradise of Scammers

 As a resident of Canada, one would expect to feel safe and secure. However, for many of us, the reality has become quite the opposite. Our beautiful country, known for its peace and tranquility, has insidiously transformed into a paradise for scammers. This unsettling truth has left countless Canadians, including myself, vulnerable and exposed to fraudulent schemes. Several factors contribute to this dire situation, including lenient policies, inadequate law enforcement capabilities, and the sheer complexity of modern cybercrimes. Lenient Policies One of the most disheartening aspects is the apparent leniency in policies regarding cybercrime. Canadian laws have not kept pace with the rapidly evolving tactics of scammers. As a victim, I have found little solace in the legal framework, which seems more reactive than proactive. When I reported my case, I discovered that the penalties for such crimes are often not severe enough to deter scammers. This gap in the legal system creates a...

#4 Payment Upfront

Corey Yurchak continued to build my trust by providing what seemed like credible information about his previous projects. He even arranged for a real company to come and check my house. However, it turned out that this company was not related to him; he had just given me their contact information. After the house inspection was completed, I paid the energy auditing company. Next, Corey asked for an upfront deposit to purchase the necessary equipment. I agreed to transfer $4000 first due to my credit card limit. He quickly came to my house, not asking me to go to his office or meet elsewhere. He brought a Square Card reader and used it to take the first $4000 payment. Looking back, I shouldn't have thought the upfront deposit was a normal event, especially since he hadn't done anything for me yet. After searching the internet about scams, I found that asking for money upfront is a common tactic used by scammers. Home Improvement Fraud: What It Is and How to Avoid It   "If a...

Home Repairs and Renovations Scam
