Left to celebrate Donald’s life are his children: Gary (Mary) Smith of Oelwein and Kathi (Bruce) Behrens of Oelwein; his granddaughter Brooke (Jacob) Dudley of Oelwein; his great-grandchildren: Lainey, Brynley, Hudsyn and Mavrick of Oelwein; his sister Jean Smith of Albuquerque, NM; his brother Jim Smith of Indiana; and several nieces and nephews.

HOW I FULLY RECOVERED MY FUNDS FROM CRYPTO SCAMMERS

It is truly amazing what you can achieve with the right information. I’m truly grateful for the service of AstraWeb Cyber Security Network, which was able to recover my cryptocurrency funds from fake investment accounts. Losing $184,000 of my hard-earned money was excruciating and devastating when I thought I could earn more from investing in cryptocurrency, not knowing that I had fallen for a scam. I was able to contact AstraWeb Cyber Security Network when I did my research online and came across their website www.astrawebcybersecurity. net
I saw that AstraWeb Cyber Security Network has been helping many victims like me to recover their funds.
I’m truly grateful for their service and I commend them for being professional and trustworthy.

It's been five years since I began working as a nurse here in Canada. I enjoy using Instagram for fun and entertainment, and one day I linked with a Chinese user. The guy was amazing and informed me that he was into binary trading and that if I invested a small amount of money—say, $4,000—I would have enough money in a year to purchase a home and a medical facility. In due course I made a choice to invest, but after six months when I tried to withdraw, I was asked for more. Throughout this time, he encouraged me to keep investing, and I had already invested $100k USD with him on his broker platform because we were in a relationship, which really gave me confidence in him. However, it was too late to realize I had been scammed after he successfully ripped me off and put me in a debt of $180k. This really stunned me, and I wasn't feeling well at all. This experience devastated me because I put so much faith in someone and this is what I received in return. After speaking with prominent IT professionals, I was referred to Coder Cyber Services, which helped me retrieve the money I had spent with the false broker. I am incredibly appreciative of Coder Cyber Service's assistance. I'm glad I was able to recover the money I mistakenly invested. I'm applauding Coder Cyber Services for their great achievement.

Everywhere on the internet is all about cryptocurrency investment, I never had any idea on how it's done, and also alot of people were into it and earning money while in their homes, i was intrested and made up my mind to invest with the hope of earning money myself. I approached a group of online traders to enlighten me more, and after spending some time with them, I received assistance in making investment and had to invest and eventually upgraded to the mega scheme, but I was unaware that the company was only reaping me off my finances and that all the reviews I had read online about them all were fake until it came to my notice after investing {430,068.00} Usd and haven't made any intrest in return, i had to stop investing and asked them to atleast let me get some part payment to pay off my mortage, they refused and it became an issues oh how i've ended up being fooled by these fake investors.. i reported to the police but it wass all untraced because they blocked me on every of their platform. after explaining to my coleague regarding the issue, she introduced me to Mr. Jamesmckaywizard a genius hacker and recovery expert who had once helped her to retrieve some money she had previously lost to some romance scam on facebook.

All of these brokers and account managers should be avoided at all costs. They took over $80,000 of investment capital from me, and they persisted in asking for additional monies before approving and processing my withdrawal request. In the end, I lost all I had invested. The customer service staff had rejected every attempt to contact them. Moving on was quite difficult and devastating for me. Thank heavens I listened to a broadcast that explained how scam victims can use Coder Cyber Services to get their money back. After contacting the provided information for advice, I received a response within a short period of time and was asked to provide all pertinent legal information regarding my investment. I immediately followed their instructions accordingly and to my utter astonishment, successfully got my money back. I declared that I would not keep this information to myself but would instead divulge it to the public in order to help all victims of scams recover their lost money. This is a significant victory over this online scammer. Thank you Codercyberservices(@)execs. com for your excellent work on this.

Many have come to the conclusion that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies cannot be traced or recovered but it’s incorrect, it can be traced and recovered with the right tools and resources. I was one of those who didn’t believe in it but I was able to recover my Bitcoin after I sent a huge amount to the wrong address with the help of a recovery team called CYBERWALLFIRE. I thought all hope was lost for good but with the intervention of CYBERTRACE, I was able to trace and recover my Bitcoins. Truly remarkable work by CYBERTRACE and I highly recommend their service.

Bitcoin scammers are becoming more sophisticated and many people are falling victim to scammers and being a scam victim can be depressing since you are given empty promises. I have been on a quest to search for a way to recover my $60,000 from http://usdtuxaf.com , a Bitcoin investment trading platform introduced to me by some guy on Facebook. After the highs and lows during the course of the way out, I did send a mail to Software Specialist at (markwizard(@)solution4u(.)com) to retrieve my Bitcoins. We spoke through Mail and he explained to me what I needed to do to recover my funds, I said I would get money back in no more than 12 hour but after 24 hour nothing i thought I had been victimized again, I was so surprised a little above 75 hour I wrote and asked for my wallet address and boom he sent my money I couldn't believe my eyes Through his excellent work, he helped me recover a significant sum of my investment back. Therefore, with all assurance I urge you to contact him directly with the above information to ease and recover your stolen money / BTC.

I was convinced by someone I met online to invest in crypto.They had access to a team of analysts that gave good signals on when BTC would go up. First
I tried with a small amount just to confirm and was able to withdraw a couple of times. This indicated the signals I was being given were growing. I
decided to put it all in including college money. That is when everything went bad because I tried to reach the person and he had blocked all his contacts
I tried everything until I was referred to CYBER RETRIEVE. They truly helped me to recover everything at an affordable fee and I was elated.If you in need
try them on

This refers to anyone looking to get their hands on cryptocurrency that has been stolen, lost to internet scams, or taken by reapers in binary options and forex trades. This is ideal for people who want to recoup every penny they lost to online fraud. Please thank me later if you contact Tech savvy hacker for a successful recovery. Due to ruthless attackers they were able to escape with 5.BTC from my wallet, which caused me to experience trauma and melancholy at a time when I most needed assistance. During my online study, I discovered Tech savvy hacker, a very reputable and trustworthy recovery agent. I'm grateful for the hack agent's assistance in helping me recover what I lost and in revealing the criminals' identities, and I'm also providing their contact information with anyone else in a comparable predicament who wants to reclaim money they lost to an internet scam. Contact this expert in cryptocurrency recovery at: Techsavvy@hackermail.com & WhatsApp/ text. +1 (514) 907-1514


Thanks to Tech savvy hacker for your help
