Меня кинули на 2,5 миллиона — рассказываю всё

Overview

The video is an instructional story by a reseller who says he was cheated out of about 2.5 million rubles after working for several months with a client named Alexander.

How the scheme unfolded (as described)

• The presenter sells used/new phones and electronics (iPhones, iPads, Watches, etc.) and usually follows a rule of not handing over goods without getting paid first.
• Alexander initially behaved like a reliable wholesale customer:
  • Orders came via delivery services (often Yandex Delivery).
  • Payments were made on time at first, sometimes part cash/part transfer.
  • The presenter says he even visited Alexander’s place and saw his family (including an apparently disabled Alexander), which increased trust.
• Gradually, Alexander’s excuses began:
  • Alexander claimed card freezes/blocks and “frozen money.”
  • After receiving phones/valuable goods, Alexander started delaying payments (first 5–7 days, later longer).
  • The presenter says the pattern escalated to larger orders, with increasing delays and avoidance of direct meetings.
• Finally, the presenter says Alexander stopped paying entirely and disappeared.

Attempts to recover money / investigation

• The presenter went to the other city (Mileus) searching for Alexander—visiting MFCs and notaries, asking couriers and contacts, and physically locating where Alexander allegedly operated.
• He describes learning that multiple people had been cheated:
  • Alexander’s business was tied to alleged “preorders” where buyers paid up front and waited for delivery later.
  • A WhatsApp group of victims reportedly grew to around 1,000 people.
• The presenter filed statements with law enforcement (police/prosecutor), and claims he was forced to provide extensive evidence (printed correspondence).
• He says the case still continues through lawsuits:
  • Some victims and/or their claims targeted him as an alleged intermediary/participant, even though he maintains he only received payment for goods he delivered.
  • He reports legal costs and ongoing court disputes, and that the damage to victims overall was reportedly about 300 million rubles.

Personal consequences

The presenter claims the loss ruined his finances and mental health:

• He says he lost substantial weight soon after the fraud and effectively had to work “for free” for about a year to cover debts and legal expenses.
• He says he lost trust in people and now refuses to give advance payments.
• He also mentions that other victims took loans to pay Alexander, which he views as particularly dangerous and harmful.

Core message / warning

The main conclusion is a warning against advance payments and investor-like/promised-profit schemes:

• Never trust “multiplying money” claims without verifiable legitimacy.
• If dealing in sales/resale, require payment first, then deliver goods—don’t fund someone else’s operations.
• He argues pyramid schemes typically work only at first (early victims receive orders), then the organizer disappears, leaving later victims with losses.
