I'll tell you my very recent story, it all happened yesterday.
I was at my workplace (working on a business to get by), during a break, I received a call from an operator claiming to be from a bank where I am a customer. Perhaps tired or distracted, I took it seriously as the operator informed me that there had been an access to my account from Switzerland.
Some of you might criticize me for falling so easily, but I took the matter seriously, starting to provide data to access the account (things that should not be done) until I reached the last piece of information, which I accidentally gave incorrectly. There, fate or something came to my rescue; the break ended, saving me from further potential harm.
I hung up on this fake operator and returned to work. In this case, it was fate because in this account, there were 10,000 euros. Saving 10,000 euros in Italy is like saving 30,000 dollars in America, and this money is crucial for the creation and development of the cosmetic product, as mentioned in my post.
Indeed, from today onwards, I will start using the method introduced by MJ DeMarco in 'The Millionaire Fastlane' to prevent this from happening to me again. Perhaps it won't be a phone scam next time, but it could be anything, which is why one must keep their eyes open.
Thank you all and have a great day, Fastlaners.

If You Want To Create A Cosmetics Line From Scratch, Then Expect This!
In short, what I want is to share this experience with you, which embarrasses me a lot as I seem gullible. However, it might help people in this forum, perhaps with larger capital than mine, to avoid scams of this kind and have a quick decision-making plan to discern the risks involved in a 20-minute call.Indeed, from today onwards, I will start using the method introduced by MJ DeMarco in 'The Millionaire Fastlane' to prevent this from happening to me again.
