Carla’s Story
Carla, a devoted single mother, has faced unimaginable heartbreak. After tragically losing her husband to suicide, she was the one to discover his lifeless body, a moment that no one should ever have to endure.
In the midst of her overwhelming grief, one of her first thoughts was: How will I care for my 3-year-old daughter for the rest of my life?
Despite the tragedy, Carla was fortunate to receive incredible support from her friends, who generously donated over $300,000 through a GoFundMe campaign to help her through this difficult time. But just when it seemed like some light was beginning to shine through the darkness, her life would take another devastating turn.
Carla crossed paths with Jordan, who promised her an opportunity to invest in his company with the assurance of a 20% annual return by May 2024. Trusting his word, Carla invested $150,000, hoping to secure a better future for herself and her daughter.
However, just a few months later, things took a sharp downward spiral. In November 2024, Jordan convinced her to invest an additional $130,000, despite clear signs that his company was on the brink of collapse. By then, he had already taken all of the GoFundMe donations, along with over $40,000 of Carla’s personal savings.
Now, Carla has lost everything—her husband, her life savings, and the generous funds her friends donated to help her get back on her feet. Left with nothing, she’s now facing the grim reality of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy with no assets to recover.
