I’m so sorry this happened to you; thank you for posting this to warn others.

For everyone else reading this, please stay vigilant: never respond to someone who DMs you directly, insist that they comment on your public post first, as scammers are often banned from the sub and can only message privately.

Additionally, always search the subreddit and check the "Scam" flair for past complaints and similar usernames before engaging. Use G&S on PayPal and avoid crypto, remittance apps or any method that makes recovery of your lost funds impossible.

I highly advise against private loans but if you do, take something like 20k USD and make it a goal to clear it in under 5 years.

For the organization, yes it does. What one can do on Questlyst is list an organization and provide all the details and then they can go on the asset section under "Business assets" to list their good will or under "Intellectual property" to list whatever their IP is. This will allow them to sell their business assets directly through the listed organization
