Like most people I needed some extra cash during uni, so I proceeded to learn CSS + Photoshop (yeah, I know). Followed by PHP and WordPress.
It can be a very shitty platform until you realize that you can stop combining plug-ins from all over the place with dubious code quality and roll your own.
Anyhow I kept at it until I was able to join a niche company doing a quite popular caching plug-in for WP (yeah, W3 Total) when I suddenly became *very* interested in anything and everything performance.
This landed me a very cozy consulting gig in the Nordics - they were using WP for an elephant-traffic website and had run into a myriad of perf issues.
Fixing them and breaking the monolith awarded me with skills in nodejs, linux, asynchronous caching among others.
I was soon in charge with managing the dev boxes for the entire team, and when the main operations dude left, I was promoted to owning the entire platform. (!) Tinkering with Linux for most of my life really came in handy here. (remember Debian potato?)
Used saltstack + aws cloudformation to achieve full parity between all environments. Learned myself some python and all various tips and tricks which in the end amounted to 90% reduction in time-to-first-byte and considerable cost savings.
By the end of the 2yr contract I had turned myself into a fullstack systems engineer and never looked back.
Lawyers not getting along resulted in us having to abandon NewRelic, so I got to learn and deploy the ELK stack as a homegrown replacement, which was super-fun.
Now I work in the engineering effectiveness department of a Swedish fintech unicorn where all languages under the Sun are an option (tho we prefer Python), so the tech stack is unlimited. Infinite tools and technologies, but with strong governing principles and with performance always in mind so as to pick the right tool for the job.
It's like that childhood feeling when you've just dumped a ton of Lego on the floor and are about to build something massive.
I guess the morale here is however disappointed you feel by your current stack - don't. Always strive to make things better, faster, more decoupled, easier to test, etc. and always challenge yourself to go outside the comfort zone.5 -
As a developer, I constantly feel like I'm lagging behind.
Long rant incoming.
Whenever I join a new company or team, I always feel like I'm the worst developer there. No matter how much studying I do, it never seems to be enough.
Feeling inadequate is nothing new for me, I've been struggling with a severe inferiority complex for most of my life. But starting a career as a developer launched that shit into overdrive.
About 10 years ago, I started my college education as a developer. At first things were fine, I felt equal to my peers. It lasted about a day or two, until I saw a guy working on a website in notepad. Nothing too special of course, but back then as a guy whose scripting experience did not go much farther than modifying some .ini files, it blew my mind. It went downhill from there.
What followed were several stressful, yet strangely enjoyable, years in college where I constantly felt like I was lagging behind, even though my grades were acceptable. On top of college stress, I had a number of setbacks, including the fallout of divorcing parents, childhood pets, family and friends dying, little to no money coming in and my mother being in a coma for a few weeks. She's fine now, thankfully.
Through hard work, a bit of luck, and a girlfriend who helped me to study, I managed to graduate college in 2012 and found a starter job as an Asp.Net developer.
My knowledge on the topic was limited, but it was a good learning experience, I had a good mentor and some great colleagues. To teach myself, I launched a programming tutorial channel. All in all, life was good. I had a steady income, a relationship that was already going for a few years, some good friends and I was learning a lot.
Then, 3 months in, I got diagnosed with cancer.
This ruined pretty much everything I had built up so far. I spend the next 6 months in a hospital, going through very rough chemo.
When I got back to working again, my previous Asp.Net position had been (understandably) given to another colleague. While I was grateful to the company that I could come back after such a long absence, the only position available was that of a junior database manager. Not something I studied for and not something I wanted to do each day neither.
Because I was grateful for the company's support, I kept working there for another 12 - 18 months. It didn't go well. The number of times I was able to do C# jobs can be counted on both hands, while new hires got the assignments, I regularly begged my PM for.
On top of that, the stress and anxiety that going through cancer brings comes AFTER the treatment. During the treatment, the only important things were surviving and spending my potentially last days as best as I could. Those months working was spent mostly living in fear and having to come to terms with the fact that my own body tried to kill me. It caused me severe anger issues which in time cost me my relationship and some friendships.
Keeping up to date was hard in these times. I was not honing my developer skills and studying was not something I'd regularly do. 'Why spend all this time working if tomorrow the cancer might come back?'
After much soul-searching, I quit that job and pursued a career in consultancy. At first things went well. There was not a lot to do so I could do a lot of self-study. A month went by like that. Then another. Then about 4 months into the new job, still no work was there to be done. My motivation quickly dwindled.
To recuperate the costs, the company had me do shit jobs which had little to nothing to do with coding like creating labels or writing blogs. Zero coding experience required. Although I was getting a lot of self-study done, my amount of field experience remained pretty much zip.
My prayers asking for work must have been heard because suddenly the sales department started finding clients for me. Unfortunately, as salespeople do, they looked only at my theoretical years of experience, most of which were spent in a hospital or not doing .Net related tasks.
Ka-ching. Here's a developer with four years of experience. Have fun.
Those jobs never went well. My lack of experience was always an issue, no matter how many times I told the salespeople not to exaggerate my experience. In the end, I ended up resigning there too.
After all the issues a consultancy job brings, I went out to find a job I actually wanted to do. I found a .Net job in an area little traffic. I even warned them during my intake that my experience was limited, and I did my very best every day that I worked here.
It didn't help. I still feel like the worst developer on the team, even superseded by someone who took photography in college. Now on Monday, they want me to come in earlier for a talk.
Should I just quit being a developer? I really want to make this work, but it seems like every turn I take, every choice I make, stuff just won't improve. Any suggestions on how I can get out of this psychological hell?6 -
Web Ops Director: [looking at a screenshot of changes she had requested] This looks good. Oh by the way, revert that red color for heading text.
Me: I’m not reverting anything because there’s nothing for me to revert. I didn’t touch that text color. The website has always looked like that.
Director: [shocked pikachu face]3 -
Worst fight was at a former job. I complained about a senior-level employee who made unprofessional comments about me.
I asked followup questions about a request. I was told the request was correct. Turns out the other employee half read/didn’t read my question because she decided I was trying to cause trouble. When my boss reviewed my work and asked why it looked weird, other employee actually wrote in the JIRA comments “Oh, my apologies. I thought [name] was question the request. [name] changed the wrong thing.” She said the silent part out loud. And the wrong thing she accused me of changing…the website always looked like that and my boss told her so. (Also, not the first time she forgot what the website looked like.) But my boss didn’t make any JIRA comment about the “questioning the request” part.
My boss was really downplaying what had happened. Like other employee just made a mistake. That wasn’t a mistake. He wasn’t going to bring it up with other employee’s boss. It was weird because the incident was a written conversation so it was really hard to deny the facts. I also had the original email notification in case she tried to go back and change her comment. I think my boss either wasn’t used to defending his direct reports or didn’t have the power to do so since most of his department (including me) was slated for layoffs in a few months.
Well, I got the last laugh. A week later, I received an offer. I put in my notice during the company’s busiest time of year. And my boss actually asked me to extend my notice by three weeks. Really?! Expecting me to forgive and forget that whole “questioning the request” incident. I stuck with my original date. -
So i'm visiting the JavaScript bubble every now and then when i'm writing on the userscript i develop to fix bugs in our ticketing system or fix some clients website they negelected. Every time i'm searching for answers to the weird problems that inevitably turn up i have to filter out all the threads that derail with the classic 'google jQuery basic arithmetic plugin' craziness to find an actual vanilla solution to my problem.
All the time i wonder why on earth people put up with this framework hell. This is part serious question and part rant but seriously, how did we come to this? With all that jQuery, React, Node, whatever stuff i'm kinda losing the overview over what's even todays standard. I always try to keep my code as vanilla as possible without using external libraries. But it seems the entire web development industry is heading the completly other way. I tried to look into a few frameworks but i never really see the appeal. Just now i looked up react native because the last 20 rants talked about it and immediately noped out because they fucking create a DOM in js, why the fuck would you do this?!
Worst thing about this framework shithole is that some frameworks are beeing pulled into the mix for very weird and unnecessary reasons. Best example is a charts library i recently used to visualize a database of temperatures that was completely written in native js but pulled jQuery in for the equivalent of window.addEventListener('load',function(stuff)) and i was furious. I rewrote the code and could throw out the jQuery dependency with no problem. What the fuck is wrong with people?
Alright since you made it here: I'm not trying to throw any of you under the bus for using frameworks. I just fail to understand why you would use these. To each their own and unless your site has the performance of the ticketing system i use at work that takes like 15 seconds to load one fucking page i won't complain at all. But pull in a framework just to do a task you can easily do in native js in remotely the same timeframe you are on my list.2 -
(Part 1/2?)
Ohhh my god am I furious and this one's a gem.
Also I'm gonna namespoil all of the entities in my post. If this is against rant rules I'll reframe it.
So the story starts over an year ago. Me, being in a bad place, where I couldn't do a job due to external issues, wanted to try out an internship. Thought I could pull off a 5 hour shift and then attend to my problems.
THE INTERNSHALA ARC:
I apply to a bunch of applications on Angel, Internshala and Indeed.
I was contacted by a few handful of these places. One of them was called "ARCHITECTA SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS". These guys had arranged an online aptitude test for me which I promptly took.
I looked up this company and they seemed like a pretty okay big firm from the outset but didn't have many reviews on Glassdoor and likes of such. (first red flag). Post aptitude test, I was quite sure I fucked up and wouldn't get further contact. Surprisingly, a person from the company sends me his Whatsapp number over chat and asks me to save it. The message is worded like a bulk email (Starting with Hello everyone!!) which I thought was quite odd since the interaction from these platforms has always been a person-to-person contact for me. Since Internshala showed that only around 40 people applied for the position I was quite intrigued but attributed this to my lack of exp in internship operations.
THE WHATSAPP ARC:
I was contacted by the number on WhatsApp saying that they'd be interested in moving forward and I gave them my work experience details.
The person sends me over a development assignment to complete within a few days. The assignment consists of massive scope of details. I'm talking production level concept and implementation. Asks to me implement a custom emotion detection CV model (worded as "emotion camera" lmao), generate a 3d model (specified nowhere and expects to implement a mono-ocular system for the curious) and deploy it over AWS with a website to go along with it and also host that. The website should contain a VR ("360 rotatable") view that can explore the depth-map ("not worded as depth-map") of the face. My first assumption was that they had picked this work up for outsourcing and didn't bother to chip off parts so as to create an assignment out of it (I know very optimistic).
So I shoot it at him on WhatsApp asking which parts of the assignment should I do?
Him: So, which parts CAN you do?
I thought of it as an HR thing.
Me: I could do most of it but given the time-frame of the assignment and my applied position as a web developer it is perhaps out of scope for my application.
Him: Don't worry about the assignment. You can submit when you complete the whole assignment.
I was visibly angry over the stupidity of this man.
Me: This task is a Full-Stack + CV + VR task. It will take over two months to get working. Am I supposed to work on it for that long for an assignment?
Him: Okay just do the basic functionalities like add to cart. But also try to do the camera thing before next week.
At this point I'm sure that they are having trouble handling an eager client and they're offloading work to interns. So I do only the backend and minimal frontend and submit the assignment (a 2 day job done over a weekend).
Nothing. Empty. No messages since then. I tried sending in a Whatsapp message on the application and how to proceed. Then, if I could get to know if I have been rejected. Nothing.
And all this time I can clearly see the account is active as it pushes pretentious motivational quotes over it's Whatsapp status.3 -
Me: [jira comment] We have similar text for the mobile version of the site already. [includes screenshot of what site looks like now] Are you sure about this?
[radio silence for a few hours]
Me: [slack] I want to follow up.
Web Operations: What’s the issue?
Ooh k. Slack messages can have a tone.
Me: I just want to confirm we’re not repeating copy.
Web Ops: We’re not.
I complete the ticket and submit for review. The C-suite for my department reviews.
C-suite: [to web ops in JIRA comment] This looks weird. Is this right? [sends screenshot of my work because there is repeated copy, like I said there’d be]
Web Ops: [in JIRA comment] Oh, I thought X was questioning the request. X changed the wrong text.
C-suite: The website has always looked like that. You’re looking at X’s screenshot for the current website. Look at the screenshot I sent over.
Later, I complain because web ops was completely unprofessional with the comment about “questioning the request.”
C-suite: Web Ops is working hard. It’s our busy season and it’s their first time dealing with it. You know, I’m going to teach them some css and html so they can make content changes in the CMS and they’re not sending over changes so often and bothering you.
Me: [to myself] 🤨 wtf so it’s ok for web ops to treat me like dirt. And in writing. And with service that’s version controlled—JIRA emailed web ops comment to me. And lol no 😂 on teaching them how to code. That’s such bullshit. We all know you’d never allow them to edit the CMS because they’d fuck up the site. And they wouldn’t do edits anyway because it’s beneath them. And idk how this relates to web ops gross behavior.
A few days later.
Me: I was offered a job elsewhere. Here’s my two weeks notice.
C-suite: Can you push back your last day? It’s our busy season.
Me: Nope. Bye Felicia.1 -
Maxi-Rant, rest in the first comment!
Yay, I've caught up with my "watch later" list on YouTube! Next thing: Just quickly go through my subscribed channels and add old videos that I haven't seen yet to the watch later list so that I have more stuff to watch the next months. The easiest way to do that is to go to the "all uploads" playlist of the channel (that is luckily always linked now, it used to be hidden sometimes) and use "add all to" to get them on my playlist. Then sort out the stuff that I've already seen and turn on automatic sorting by date, easy. Yeah...
Firstly, in the new design there's no "add all to", I have to go to the old design. For my own playlists, there's a handy "edit" button to do that, but on other pages I have to do it manually. Luckily I have set Ctrl+Shift+1 as a shortcut for "&disable_polymer=true" long ago.
Next surprise: On "all uploads" playlists, there is no "add all to" button. It's on every single other playlist on YouTube, including "liked", "watch later", "favourites" and so on, just not there.
Fine, I'll just abuse my subscription playlist script that I already have by making a copy of it, putting the channel IDs in it and setting the last execution date to 1.1.2001. Little problem with that: Google apps scripts can run for at most 5 minutes and the YouTube API restricts it to add one video per second. So it doesn't work for more than 300 videos. I could now try to split it up by dates, but I didn't write the script myself and I don't know how it sorts the videos to add, so I'll just google for another solution instead.
Found one: Go to the video overview of the channel in the old layout, Ctrl+Shift+I, paste this little Javascript thing and it automatically clicks all the little clocks that add the video to the watch later list. Yay, that works! Ok, i'm restricted to 5000 videos, because that's the maximum size of a YouTube playlist, so I can't immediately add all 8000+, but whatever, that's a minor problem and I'll sort out later anyway. Still another little problem: For some reason I can't automatically sort the watch later list. Because that would be too easy.
But whatever, I'll just use "add all to" from there to add it to my creatively named "WL" list. If that thing is restricted by the same rate limit of 1 video per second, it should be done in about 1½ hours. A bit long, but hey, I'm dealing with 5000 videos. Waiting 2 hours... Waiting 3 hours... Nothing happens. It would be nice if it at least added them one by one, but no, it waits an eternity and then adds all at once. At least in theory, right now it does absolutely nothing.
Shortly considered running it for more hours or even days on my Raspberry Pi, but that thing already struggles when using Chromium normally, I shouldn't bother it with anything that has to do with 5000 videos.
Ok, what else can I do then? Googling, trying out different things, mainly external services that have their own concept of "playlists" and can then add them to an arbitrary playlist later...
Even tried writing my own Java program with the YouTube API, but after about an hour not even the example program in the YouTube API tutorial worked (50 errors and even more open questions, woohoo), so I discarded that idea.
Then I discovered "DiskYT". Everything looked like it would work and I'm still convinced that I can do it with that little pile of shit. Why is it a pile of shit? Well, for example the site reloads itself after a while, so it can at most add 700 videos to a playlist. Also I can't just paste the channel link (even though it recognises those links, but just to show an error message that it can't copy from channels). I can't enter/paste URLs, I have to drag them. The site saves absolutely nothing (should in theory work, but in practise it doesn't), so I have to re-drag everything on every try. In one network, the "authorise YouTube" button (that I have to press again on every computer) does absolutely nothing ("inspect" reveals that there isn't even any action bound to the button), in another network the page mostly doesn't work at all or the button to copy from playlists is suddenly gone or other weird stuff. Luckily I have the WiFi at home, there it works in theory. But just on my desktop PC, no other device, wow. I tried to run it on my new laptop, but it's so new that it still has the preinstalled OS and there I can't deactivate going to standby when closing the laptop, so while I expected it to add 5000 videos, it instead added 4 and went to standby. But doesn't matter, because it would have failed at about 700 anyway. Every time I try to use this website, I get new problems, but it seems to still be the best option, because everything else just doesn't do anything. This page at least got to 700 before.

HOW TO HIRE A TRUSTED CRYPTOCURRENCY RECOVERY EXPERT; USDT RECOVERY EXPERT HIRE CYBER CONSTABLE INTELLIGENCE
My name is Lori, and I’m sharing my experience in the hope that it might help others avoid a similar scam. A few weeks ago, I received an email that appeared to be from the "Department of Health and Human Services (DHS)." It claimed I was eligible for a $72,000 grant debit card, which seemed like an incredible opportunity. At first, I was skeptical, but the email looked so professional and convincing that I thought it might be real. The email instructed me to click on a link to claim the grant, and unfortunately, I followed through. I filled out some personal details, and then, unexpectedly, I was told I needed to pay a "processing fee" to finalize the grant. I was hesitant, but the urgency of the message pushed me to make the payment, believing it was a necessary step to receive the funds. Once the payment was made, things quickly went downhill. The website became unreachable, and I couldn’t get in touch with anyone from the supposed DHS. It soon became clear that I had been scammed. The email, which seemed so legitimate, had been a clever trick to steal my money. Devastated and unsure of what to do, I began searching for ways to recover my lost funds. That’s when I found Cyber Constable Intelligence, a team of experts who specialize in tracing stolen money and assisting victims of online fraud. They were incredibly reassuring and quickly got to work on my case. After several days of investigation, they managed to track down the scammers and recover my funds. I can’t express how grateful I am for their help. Without Cyber Constable Intelligence, I don’t know what I would have done. This experience has taught me a valuable lesson: online scams are more common than I realized, and the scammers behind them are incredibly skilled. They prey on people’s trust, making it easy to fall for their tricks. If you’ve ever been a victim of a similar scam, I highly recommend contacting a trusted recovery service like Cyber Constable Intelligence. They have the expertise and tools to help you recover your money and protect yourself from future scams. Stay vigilant, always question unsolicited offers, and never provide personal information or make payments without verifying the legitimacy of the source.

It all started with a moment of excitement and a costly mistake. Like many others, I had heard the stories of people making fortunes in cryptocurrency. Eager to jump on the bandwagon, I invested a significant portion of my savings into what I believed was a promising Ethereum ETH project. The website looked professional, the whitepaper seemed solid, and the community appeared enthusiastic. I transferred my ETH, expecting massive returns, then, the unthinkable happened. The project turned out to be a rug pull scam where developers abandon the project and disappear with investors' funds. Overnight, my investment was gone. I felt sick to my stomach, realizing I had been duped. The blockchain is irreversible, and I thought my hard-earned money was lost forever. Desperate for a solution, I scoured the internet for any possible way to recover my funds. That’s when I stumbled upon Washington Recovery Pro, a cryptocurrency recovery service with stellar reviews. Skeptical but hopeful, I reached out to them, explaining my situation in detail.The recovery process was nothing short of remarkable. Washington Recovery Pro’s team of blockchain experts and legal consultants meticulously analyzed the blockchain records, tracked my lost ETH, and identified the scammers’ wallet addresses. Using their network and legal channels, they managed to pressure the culprits and retrieve my funds.Washington Recovery Pro had done what I thought was impossible. They restored my lost investment, my trust, and my faith in the idea that not all hope is lost when you fall victim to fraud. From that day on, I became a firm believer in their expertise, and I vowed to always do my due diligence before making any investment.If you’ve ever fallen victim to a crypto scam, I can’t recommend them enough.

I was recently at the AMC Georgetown Theater, standing in line for popcorn, when I struck up a conversation with a girl sitting next to me. We started talking about investments, and I shared my experience of being scammed. I had invested $157,000 into a cryptocurrency platform that seemed promising at first. The platform looked legitimate, and after doing my research, I felt confident about the decision. But after a few months, things started to unravel. Withdrawals were delayed, and the responses from the platform grew increasingly vague. Eventually, the platform disappeared completely, taking my entire investment with it. The shock and disbelief I felt were overwhelming. The money was gone, and I was left not only financially drained but emotionally exhausted. I couldn't believe how quickly everything had fallen apart, despite doing what I thought was thorough research. As I explained my situation to the girl at the theater, she seemed genuinely concerned and shared that she had been in a similar situation. She, too, had been scammed in the past, but she was able to recover her lost funds with the help of a company called DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY.

HIRE A BITCOIN HACKER TO RECOVER LOST BITCOIN WALLET-CONTACT RAPID DIGITAL RECOVERY
My name is Linda Springer, and I am part of an ultra-high-net-worth family in the United Kingdom. Managing our wealth has always been a top priority, and I’ve always looked for opportunities to grow and diversify our investments. When I was introduced to an offshore banking investment program called Market Fund, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to enhance our portfolio. The program promised impressive returns, and with professional advisors and seemingly legitimate documentation, I felt confident that it was a secure investment. However, my trust in Market Fund quickly proved to be misplaced. Initially, everything seemed to go smoothly. Reports showed strong growth, and I was reassured by the continuous updates from the program’s advisors. But when I tried to withdraw my funds, everything took a sharp turn. The Market Fund website became unresponsive, and all my attempts to reach the advisors through emails and phone calls went unanswered. It was then that I realized I had fallen victim to a scam, and the £60,000 I had invested was gone. Feeling devastated and unsure of what to do next, I turned to a friend I had met at a club called The Vault. During one of our conversations, Alex, a fellow club-goer, mentioned how Rapid Digital Recovery had helped them recover funds from a similar fraudulent scheme. Intrigued by their success story, I decided to reach out to Rapid Digital Recovery....Whatsapp: +1 4 14 80 71 4 85.. hoping they could help me recover my money as well.

How PRO WIZARD GILBERT RECOVERY Helped Me Recover $200,000 from an Online Scam
I never thought I would fall victim to an online scam—especially not one that would cost me $200,000. As someone who has always been careful with investments, I did my due diligence before committing to what I believed was a legitimate trading platform. The website looked professional, the customer support was responsive, and everything seemed to check out. The company even had testimonials from supposed investors who had made incredible returns. Encouraged by these success stories, I decided to invest. I started with a small amount, and within weeks, I saw what appeared to be significant profits in my account. Every time I checked, my balance was growing, and when I made a small withdrawal, it was processed without issue. This gave me even more confidence in the platform, leading me to invest larger sums over time.
Eventually, my total investment reached $200,000. That’s when things took a drastic turn. When I attempted to make a substantial withdrawal, I was suddenly met with delays, excuses, and new “fees” that I needed to pay before accessing my funds. Then, without warning, my account was locked, and all communication from the company ceased. It was then that I realized I had been scammed. I was devastated. Losing that much money felt like my world had collapsed. I contacted banks, reported the fraud, and even reached out to law enforcement, but there was little they could do. Just when I was losing hope, I came across PRO WIZARD GILBERT RECOVERY—a team specializing in recovering funds lost to online scams.
Skeptical but desperate, I decided to give them a chance. From the very first conversation, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and confident they could help. Using advanced cyber-tracing techniques, they tracked down the scammers’ digital footprints, identified fraudulent transactions, and worked tirelessly to retrieve my lost funds. To my amazement, within weeks, PRO WIZARD GILBERT RECOVERY successfully recovered my $200,000! I couldn’t believe it. What seemed like an impossible situation turned into a second chance, all thanks to their expertise and dedication.

PROFESSIONAL MONEY RECOVERY AGENCY → FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY.
Hi, I’m sharing my ordeal today because I know many of you could be in the same situation, and I want to help you avoid the same mistake I made. A little over a month ago, I came across what seemed like an incredible deal for a movie streaming service. They promised all the latest movies, TV shows, and exclusive content for a very reasonable price. They were offering an annual subscription for just $39,000, which seemed like a great deal at the time when compared to some of the larger streaming services out there. I should’ve known something was off from the start. The website looked pretty legitimate, had professional graphics, and even customer reviews that were mostly positive. But there were no big, recognizable brand names behind it, and the service was claiming to have content from major studios, which raised a red flag I didn't fully process. Still, the deal was tempting, and after doing a quick search online (which, in hindsight, wasn’t thorough enough), I decided to go ahead and sign up. I paid the $39,000 upfront for the annual subscription, thinking that I was getting access to all the movies and shows I’d ever wanted. At first, everything seemed fine. I received an email confirming my subscription and even a receipt. But a few days later, when I went back to the site to browse content, I couldn’t get in. The site was down, and there was no way to contact anyone. I waited a few days, hoping it was just a technical issue. But then, I started doing some more research and realized that others had fallen victim to the same scam. The website had disappeared, and no one could find any trace of the company behind it. I was furious. I had just lost $39,000, and it seemed like there was no way to get it back. That's when I came across Folkwin Expert Recovery. They specialize in helping people recover funds from online scams like this. I was skeptical at first, but after reading reviews and seeing their success stories, I decided to give them a try. The team at Folkwin Expert Recovery was extremely professional. They asked for all the details about my transaction, including the payment method, and got to work right away. Within just a few days, I received updates from them, and eventually, they successfully recovered my $39,000. It felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. I honestly didn’t think it was possible to get my money back, but thanks to Folkwin Expert Recovery, I did. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend reaching out to them. FOLKWINEXPERTRECOVERY(at)TECH-CENTER.C OM, TELEGRAM: @FOLKWIN_EXPERT_RECOVERY . They made the process simple and stress-free, and they delivered on their promises. Just remember to always be cautious when dealing with online subscriptions, especially if something feels too good to be true.
Stay safe out there!
Best Regards,
Edward O. Elliott.

I’m a musician, and not long ago, I was scammed out of $12,000 by a fake music streaming service called Streamify Pro. It’s a story I never thought would happen to me, but it did, and I feel it’s important to share it, especially for other artists in the music industry who might be vulnerable to the same scam. I got an email from what seemed like a legitimate music streaming platform, offering me an opportunity to get my music on a huge new service. They promised high visibility, global exposure, and the chance to generate more revenue from streams. It seemed like a dream come true for an independent musician like me, who is always looking for ways to grow my audience. The email looked official, and they even provided testimonials from artists who’d “made it big” by using their service. They had a polished website with all the right buzzwords, making everything look very convincing. They also gave me a “special deal” on their package, offering me placement on their platform for a fee of $12,000. It was a hefty amount, but I thought it was worth the investment, considering the exposure they promised. I transferred the money, but soon after, things started to feel off. My music was never uploaded to their platform. They stopped responding to my emails, and the phone number they gave me went straight to voicemail. I tried to do some research and found that there were no actual reviews or artists talking about the service online. It hit me hard—I had just lost $12,000.That’s when I reached out to ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST. I was feeling desperate and didn’t know what else to do. They were incredibly responsive and understood exactly what I was going through. They launched an investigation into the scam and worked tirelessly to recover the full amount that I had lost. To my amazement, they were able to recover 100% of the $12,000 I had been scammed out of. Since then, I’ve been recommending ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST to other musicians. They did what seemed impossible, and their service was absolutely worth it. If you’re a musician or anyone in the creative industry, be cautious about these types of scams. I learned the hard way, but thanks to ASSET RESCUES SPECIALIST, I got all of my money back.

HOW TO RETRIEVE STOLEN OR LOST BITCOIN; TRUSTED CRYPTO RECOVERY EXPERT| CYBER CONSTABLE INTELLIGENCE
It started as an ordinary Tuesday. I was checking my By bit portfolio when an email popped up that looked like a legitimate alert from the exchange, warning of suspicious activity. Without thinking, I clicked the link and entered my credentials. The moment I hit submit, a sinking feeling hit me. Within minutes, my Bitcoin wallet was completely drained. Losing 3.2 BTC, worth nearly $200,000 at the time, wasn’t just a financial blow. It felt like a personal violation. I couldn’t believe I had fallen for a phishing scam. I spent days digging through forums, contacting By bit support, and even filing a police report. But the responses were disheartening and repetitive. Crypto transactions are irreversible. Scam victims rarely recover their funds. The helplessness was crushing. I barely slept. I kept replaying that moment over and over in my head. Why did I click the link? Why didn’t I double-check? The guilt and frustration consumed me. Friends tried to be supportive, but most didn’t understand the emotional and financial weight of what had happened. I had always been cautious with security. Yet in one distracted moment, everything disappeared. Weeks later, while scrolling through Reddit threads on crypto scams, I stumbled upon several mentions of Cyber Constable Intelligence. At first, I was skeptical. It sounded too good to be true. But the testimonials felt genuine, and I was desperate. I decided to reach out. Their response was fast, professional, and surprisingly empathetic. They didn’t promise miracles. Instead, they explained their method: tracing blockchain transactions, identifying potential exchange cash-outs, and working with legal and crypto entities to freeze and recover funds. I sent them everything I had wallet addresses, transaction records, screenshots and waited. Just a few days later, I received an email that left me speechless. They had successfully traced and recovered all of my stolen Bitcoin. I couldn’t believe it. After being told repeatedly that the funds were gone forever, here they were, back in my wallet. It felt like waking up from a nightmare. Cyber Constable Intelligence didn’t just help me get my money back. They restored my sense of security, my trust, and my peace of mind. I share my story now in case someone else out there is feeling the same panic and hopelessness I once felt. There is help. And sometimes, there is even a second chance.

Crypto And Bitcoin Scam Recovery | Legitimate Crypto Recovery Company Hire CYBER CONSATBLE INTELLIGENCE
I’m Susan Sosnowski, a retired teacher from Texas. I spent over 30 years in the classroom, most of them at Oak Ridge Elementary School in Houston. I’ve always tried to be financially prudent budgeting carefully, saving consistently, and planning for a modest but comfortable retirement. A few months into retirement, I came across a cloud mining investment platform online. It promised 20 percent monthly returns. The website looked legitimate, packed with technical details and glowing testimonials. I did some checking and even spoke to a so-called “account manager.” Everything seemed professional. I thought, maybe this is a chance to make my savings stretch a little further. I decided to invest $25,000. And for the first three months, the returns came as promised, on time, every month. I felt confident. Then, without warning, the website disappeared. The emails stopped. The phone numbers were dead. That’s when the reality hit: I had been scammed. At first, I was overwhelmed with embarrassment and regret. I didn’t know where to turn until I stumbled across Cyber Constable Intelligence during an online search. I hesitated. Could I really trust another online service? But something about their approach felt different measured honest and transparent. From the very first call, Cyber Constable Intelligence treated me with respect and care. They explained their process clearly and made no unrealistic promises. Their team launched a full investigation into the scam. What they uncovered was sobering the platform was a classic Ponzi scheme. There was no mining, just a cycle of using new investors’ money to pay old ones. Their investigators traced my stolen funds through the blockchain, tracking them across digital wallets and exchanges. Eventually, they located a significant portion in a Tether reserve based in Seychelles. With relentless effort and negotiation, Cyber Constable Intelligence secured a substantial recovery. I got back $20,000. Not quite everything I lost, but it was more than I ever expected to see again. It felt like a second chance. Cyber Constable Intelligence gave me more than money. They gave me closure, confidence, and the sense that someone was on my side. If you’ve been scammed, don’t suffer in silence. Turn to Cyber Constable Intelligence who know how to fight back.

HOW TRUST GEEKS HACK EXPERT HELPED ME TAKE LEGAL ACTION & RECOVER MY FUNDS
It's a fact: Reddit has always been, is, and will be my source for crypto discussions, security tips, and market trends. Little did I know it would be the same site that helped save me from financial ruin. Some months ago, an AMA thread about Trust Geeks Hack Expert showed up. People asked them anything: from lost wallet recoveries to phishing scams; their answers sounded really detailed, transparent, and full of insight. At the time, I didn't know that their help was near. It all started with what I thought was a routine software update. I had received an e-mail from what looked like a trusted exchange, telling me to install an important patch. The email looked *legit—*matching the branding, formatting, and even the usual tone of messages I had received before. Without a second thought, I downloaded the update and installed it. Biggest mistake of my life. It froze within minutes, and then it automatically restarted. My crypto wallet was empty when I regained access. $200,000-gone. At first, I thought it was some kind of glitch, but as I dug deeper, the cold reality hit me hard: I had been hacked. The "update" was a form of malware designed to drain wallets by injecting malicious code. Panic set in, but rather than spiral, I remembered the Trust Geeks Hack Expert AMA. Their confidence in handling cases like mine had stood out to me. I rushed back to the thread, found their contact details Website h tt p s :// trust geeks hack expert. c o m / -- E m a il : trust geeks hack expert {@} fast service {.} c o m, and reached out immediately. Their response was prompt and very reassuring. They asked for every little detail I could remember-from the time of the installation of the fake update to the exact nature of the transactions I had done prior to this. They got to work, tracing the movement of my stolen funds using some advanced blockchain forensics.
Days went by, and I had my doubts, but they kept me updated. Then came a message that I was praying for; they had recovered my $200,000. It sounded like a dream come true. All stress, regret, and anger vanished at that moment. Trust Geeks Hack Expert saved not only my funds but also taught me a lesson which will never be forgotten: never trust email links. Now, I double-check every update; use cold storage for large amounts; don't click on anything that's remotely suspicious. If not for that Reddit AMA, I would have never found the only team skilled enough to turn my disaster into a comeback story.1 -

LEADING BTC RECOVERY COMPANY-CODER CYBER SERVICES
As a real estate investor, I am always cautious about where I put my money. I’ve learned the hard way that not every opportunity is what it seems, so I usually take my time to do thorough research before committing. When I came across an online platform offering exclusive property deals with high returns, I was intrigued but skeptical. The website, realatorsCA com, looked professional, and the salesperson was incredibly persuasive. He explained that the investment would be used to buy land, develop it by building properties, and then sell them for a profit. This seemed like a solid business model, and the idea of earning profits from such ventures was appealing. After weeks of research, checking reviews, and asking questions, I decided to invest CAD 42,700 in what seemed like a promising opportunity.At first, everything seemed fine. I received regular updates about the projects, and my online account showed “profits” from my investment. Everything appeared legitimate, and I was optimistic about my decision. The website offered easy access to my account, and the platform seemed to be functioning just as advertised. However, when I tried to withdraw some of my funds to see how the process worked, the website suddenly went offline. My attempts to reach the customer service number went unanswered, and eventually, the phone number was disconnected. At that point, I realized that I had been scammed.I felt devastated and helpless. It was hard to believe that I had been tricked, especially after doing so much research. But I didn’t give up. I reached out to Coder Cyber Services, a company operating in Banff, Alberta.
