I Could Have Stopped This Cyber Scam, But It Was Too Late - Intro

Cyber threats are the big elephant in the room—everyone knows they exist, but many believe it won’t happen to them. But what if it does? What if one wrong click, one deceptive email, or one small mistake leads to losing your money, identity, or even your business?

Before I begin this journey, I want to answer an important question—why did this matter to me in the first place?

There are already great resources out there to help people stay aware of cyber threats, and I will cover those. But what truly pushed me to start this initiative was something personal… a moment that changed how I see cybersecurity forever.

A close friend of mine reached out in distress—he had just fallen victim to cybercrime. He lost money, and while we were able to recover some of it, I couldn’t help but think—if only I had helped him sooner, he wouldn’t be in this situation at all.

That moment hit hard. Suddenly, I could relate to every single person who has ever fallen victim to cybercrime—the confusion, the panic, the helplessness. And I realized that if this could happen to someone close to me, it could happen to anyone.

This is why I started this non-profit initiative—to spread cyber awareness, to educate, and to empower individuals and businesses to stay one step ahead of cybercriminals. My goal is simple: to make cybersecurity understandable, accessible, and most importantly, actionable.

So, if you want to stay safe in this ever-evolving digital world, join me. Let’s learn, let’s stay aware, and let’s make sure we all remain Cyber Evident.
