I am deeply sorry about your experience with the loss of your Hive earnings. It's quite sad that if a person perpetuated this act, they most likely would not consider it a wrongdoing because their minds have been conditioned to see it as "hustling."
To continually curb this, we must hold people accountable for their actions, speak against fraud of ny kind, organize seminars to enlighten the young ones on its dangers, and like you mentioned, help provide skill acquisition centers to build them up vocationally. Happy to know you've been doing your part in shaping the collective mindset of thise around you. Have a great day.
