I had invested some of my savings in a cloud crpto mining site happy miner. But they have shutdown their service since a week. I've been savings up since 2018. Now I've lost almost 25.000 dollars. At a time when I'm just recovering,it's couldn't have come at a worst time. Depressed

@Laurakemunto Unfortunately that's the truth. Scammers are pretty smart to peep into every place.

so many investments that offer very high interest and you have to be very careful in choosing, most of them are used for gambling so that when they go bankrupt there are no reserve funds to return investors' money.

I have heard this viral video of people being scammed that's why I hate these things for sure. Am sorry about this is there no way you can reach out to them and maybe try to sort this out?
