And now important - we got the Carmela thing. The niece girl. Approximately in one month Mikaela says that the paypal Cuore made for me was made in his niece name and then Mikaela suggests I'd pay 100 usd to THIS GIRL and manage the paypal myself. So this is where we transited from "we want no money but only tutorials" to "pay us money every month". Pay attention here. This girl was supposed to get 100 usd. Not Cuore aka Giuseppe Esposito. I agreed to that as I was fed up with recording videos and sending files that were not the ones he wanted ( I was stupid as I was not realizing they've been just doing it on purpose to make me finally pay ) but I made a clear condition: if I pay that amount, those people i.e. Carmela and Cuore should have NO ACCESS to this paypal. No paypal password, no email password, no telephone number. And then I found out something shocking - Mikaela didn't actually have an access to this paypal. She said she would "try" to log in to that paypal as "maybe" had the password! MAYBE. And then she said when she sent me those two payments they DID IT TOGETHER WITH CUORE online. Together, Carl! Just recently, she told me he didn't even know she sent it. Gosh, I was so stupid to keep trusting her when I clearly caught her lying but I just could't believe that such a big creator could be a fraud and I basically trusted her way too much.
As for the part with me managing the paypal myself. At one hand Mikaela said she's ready to give me the password so I could log in to the paypal account myself. At the other hand she was saying she is not sure I could log in from Russia and I would probably need a phone code that would be sent to that girl's phone number so we had to be online together and that could be complicated due to "different time zones" (I have only 2 hrs difference with Italy so call it another BS). Actually she was asking that quite many times, like she wants to know if I can log in from Russia or not. From my side I knew that in the current situation in my country I can not log in this paypal account anyway as even with a VPN it could lead an account ban - this is what I've read on paypal forums here and I didn't want to risk it of course. So Mikaela having control of this paypal account and managing the payments herself was the only safe option for me and that's how we agreed on. I was sure I could trust her as she'd already been helping me with my Sellfy payouts for a few months, also as I treated her as a friend I could not think she'd take an advantage of this access. Also I'd like to note that all this time my Sellfy's money had been basically in Romy's paypal which I also had no access to and didn't intend to ask for it as I totally trusted her - Romy I mean, she'd been my best friend for years. I definetly was deluded here and thought that I could trust Mikaela as much as Romy. Mikaela was never a friend. She was and is an opportunist seizing any chance to use people for her own benefit. But at that time I could not even think about it.
Anyway, Mikaela confirmed she was going to be the only one who has the control of this account. That these people (Giuseppe & Carmella) don't even care about it. That this Cuore guy doesn't need anything, he is only happy about his niece getting some extra money every month, lol. Niece. Not him, pay attention here. That Mikaela has never had any issues with these people since 2016. That they are a good family. And I trusted her despite the fact I caught her lying because I was ... stupid. Or way too naive. Also because the day I found out all this my imvu payout had already been on its way, I just couldn't stop it. I did not want to think anything negative. Also as anytime Mikaela would send me the money from my Sellfy store I received everything correctly and never had any problems so I just assumed I could 100% trust her.
Then we proceeded with each payment every month without any issues. We also chatted a lot like regular friends, exchanging some photos of our pets. Everything was ok until the beginning of June.
