Help recoup Jantra's life savings stolen from her
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Jarrett, and I am fundraising for my fiancee, Jantra. She was recently scammed out of her entire life savings in Thailand by a man impersonating a police officer.
Jantra is one of the kindest souls I’ve ever met. She’s been saving her money since she was old enough to work after starting her own ice cream business to help support her and her family. She managed to save close to $24,000 since starting her shop at a very young age.
Her parents are farmers in a remote Karen hill tribe village and make a small amount of money from selling their crops during harvest time. She wanted her parents to have a better life and left the village when she was very young to acquire a better education to help her start a business that would offer her a way to save money to keep food on the table for her family.
As for many others, her life changed course when the ice cream shop had no more customers due to the recent world changes. Luckily, she had her life savings put aside to help support her and her family during even the most difficult of times since the ice cream shop had closed. This was until she received that phone call from the man impersonating a police officer.
This man threatened her life and livelihood before draining her life savings with years of jail time and physical abuse. He even somehow acquired her bank account number and account balance before contacting her to appear to be a real police officer. We only found out afterward this was an elaborate scam by professional scammers recently caught doing this throughout Thailand. Jantra immediately reported this to the real police, who managed to track down six people involved, but the money was already transferred overseas. There was nothing we could do.
She has been devastated ever since this happened. I and a few others have been doing what we can to help support her emotionally and financially to help her through this.
This financial support would mean an incredible amount to Jantra, myself, and her family. Jantra was planning to use part of this money to finish building her parent's home in the village she started to build before Covid.
Your support would mean the world to us in so many ways! Even a dollar will help us get closer to our goal. Love and gratitude~
