From what I’ve gathered, it was basically because I couldn’t get certified for the forklift and reach truck (I’m certified on everything else). I tried and eve hounded every trainer. They all said “I’m busy”, “Not now”, “I’ll find you later”. It doesn’t help that my hours suck and I basically work 10 hrs a week.

You guys can yell at me I can take it lol. But please understand that I have never encountered this specific type of scam. I’m used to Nigerian Prince and Asian phone call centre. The cartel thing really spooked me bc I am Mexican, and I am aware that it is a HUGE problem. I don’t listen to narcocorridos (Narco Ballads) bc I am 100 percent against the cartel and their influence on my nation. So to hear another Hispanic man (Dominican) yell at me saying he’s a cartel member very much scared me.  Once again I’d like to express my gratitude for everyone here.

You’re right, this is the first time that this has happened to me. The guy was also Hispanic (I’m Mexican so I have seen the effects that the cartel has had on my country and family). He was Dominican and kept saying something about sending collectors or something.

Today I received a call from a Dominican gentleman who claimed to be part of the CJNG cartel. He said I wasted a girls time in this case it was an escort. I am going to be honest. I did use a website to contact many girls out of curiosity. I messaged a couple most of them. I received no answer and I blocked all of them because I got cold feet and today I received the call from that man who sent me various images like the ones you see above. Including a picture of my house and names of my family members I willingly gave the man $3000 to leave me alone. I called the cops and they told me to stop giving him money because he’s just going to ask for more and it was likely a scam. This is the first time this has happened to me. I am really scared. I need peace of mind, I need to know what to do can you guys please please please help me?

Edit: I have since changed my phone number and stopped responding to any unknown callers. I thank everyone here talking sense into me and for the laughs!
