Thanks a lot for sharing your story.
I think that we all had similar experiences when we started out as investors;-). I once got an e-mail from blockchain.info, well I believed it was from them... They said they had a very high return investment product. I invested 0.10 Btc and thought that it was a great way to get return on my investment. Blockchain.info had a very good name and I believed that it was serious. What I forgot to double check was if the e-mail I got was really from them... Two days after my investment payment, the website simply closed down...
