COMPLAINTS POURING INTO THE PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE
Moreover, hundreds of people from different cities have gone to the prosecutor's office to file complaints against Emir, who also insulted and cursed the victims.
"HE SHOULD BE CAUGHT IMMEDIATELY AND PUNISHED"
One of the victims, Abdullah G., stated that he lost the money he saved for his wife's cancer treatment, while Ahmet Y. said he sent 5000 dollars to Emir to cover wedding expenses. The victims want the person to be caught as soon as possible and receive the necessary punishment.
"WE EXPERIENCED THAT HE IS A LIAR IN A PAINFUL WAY"
Abdullah G., who lives in Ankara, said, "I contacted him at the end of September. I had been following him on social media for about 3 years. He was helping people in TikTok broadcasts, exploiting religion to market himself well. We experienced that he is a liar in a painful way. I do not receive responses when I write to him; he has an indifferent attitude. He thinks nothing will happen to him. I gave him 350,000 TL that I saved for my wife's cancer treatment. He told me he would get back to me in a month and promised profits.
"WE COULD NEITHER GET PROFITS NOR OUR MONEY BACK"
He said I would receive 2.5 times the money I gave. We could neither get profits nor our money back. He has set up a pyramid scheme. He is still finding new victims, and he has many followers. I have also filed a complaint; it is time for this person to face the consequences," he said.
