Frequently Asked Questions

Do you really never offer investments?

→ I have never encouraged anyone to invest via social media, and I never guarantee any returns. If you see my name connected to an “investment platform,” it’s a scam.

What should I do if I come across a video or profile like this?

→ Use the “Report” feature directly on the platform and mark the content as a scam or impersonation. If you wish, you can also send me the link via the form above on this page. This helps get the scam taken down faster.

What should I do if I’ve already sent money?

→ If you have sent money, contact your bank immediately and ask to dispute the transaction. I also recommend filing a police report. If you shared personal information, change your passwords and monitor your accounts for possible misuse.

Will you refund me if I became a victim of a scam?

→ Unfortunately, no. Scammers are not connected to me or my team in any way. Refunds are handled by your bank or by law enforcement authorities.

How can I tell if a profile is official?

→ Only the verified, official channels listed on this page are genuine. Anything else claiming to be my profile is fake. If you’re unsure, verify the link here on the website.

Why do deepfake videos exist?

→ Artificial intelligence can imitate a face and voice very convincingly. Scammers use it to appear trustworthy and obtain your money or personal data. That’s why it’s important to stay vigilant and not trust content that presents itself as my personal statement or recommendation.
