As others have said below, how can WE avoid the scam if we have no idea what it looks like coming at us? Very nice that the back is supporting and covering the money.
Can you say anything about WHO is vulnerable, or is it anyone at any time?
Fair point! I should’ve mentioned the main thing I’ve learned: no matter what recent genuine conversations you’ve had with your bank and no matter how much the person calling you seems to know about those conversations, always verify it is genuine by hanging up and calling the bank back instead 👍🏼 I was vulnerable because I’d had issues with my card previously. It is not clear whether those issues were related to the scam to make it seem more genuine or a separate incident
@@LaurenJumps OK thank you very much for the genuine response. What you said TOTALLY checks and will help people: always call the institution yourself, be it bank or brokerage, to make sure it is really is them initiating the contact. Great tip.
I think your experience can help a lot of other young people not fall prey to this, and it is great to see your success not get hampered by it 👍 🤗
@@LaurenJumps I know crooks may buy your private infos on the dark web to trick you. They won't call you empty handed
@@LaurenJumpsI had the same think happened to me few months ago.
Hi Laren, you're such a cool girl, at least quit your job and come to visit you from St. Petersburg
I like the fact that Lauren is authentic and easygoing and kind. She’s like a talented next door neighbor with whom we can have coffee every once in a while. 😊
I'm really pleased you didn't change the intro. It's important that people see that life isn't all glamour and excitement, that there's hard work and worry behind success.
Too many people in media give a false impression by hiding the behind the scenes stuff.
Not deliberately perhaps, but it still gives a false impression and impressionable people believe that their lives don't compare.
That was a long winded way of saying 'Bravo You' for being honest and authentic. I'm always impressed by your ethics, even though you probably don't realise you're demonstrating them 😊
You're the second youtuber I know who got scammed. Thanks for being open about it (or as open as you think prudent) and glad your bank came thru for you.
You're such a positive inspiration, a Truely beautiful young woman. Its sad that there are greedy people out there wanting to take advantage of Your success.
Chin Up, keep smiling and know that You have jumped Your way into everyone's hearts
You're allowed an off day when its needed
MuchLove

So this is confusing - so Lauren got scammed, not sure how - how will I not get scammed if I dont know how Lauren got scammed? Just glad it worked out
See the pinned comment
As a small buisness owner, the one thing is for sure, employees are the biggest X factor for any employer. Take your time, be patient, be on gaurd for people with bad intentions and jealousy ! Took me years to put a good group of people together and still deal with two out of ten that are difficult! One example is one of my best employees of 5 years tells me his wife AND girlfriend are both pregnant! That old adage of don’t make your problems my problems don’t really work too well lol!
Lauren, I know that your platform is how you make money now. And I am so happy for you!
But don't think you have to be this perfect woman all the time. You sharing this vulnerable moment with us is incredible.
I will never think less of you for your content. If you have to take a break, then do it. And for those that want to scam you, tell them John Wick said hi.
This girl is the definition of having the "it" factor!!!
What I love the most about your vlogs is that you are more personal. There is more to you than the jumping, and everyone knows that, but you share bits of your thinking, your feelings, and your personality. The early morning start, the things that trouble your mind, the amount of mental work and pressures whilst doing that work are all wonderful insights into how a down-to-earth person copes with becoming something more, to so many people. The different days shows you are just a person with all the same everyday struggles and it is always refreshing. It also shows how important that positive, happy, energetic Lauren is in the short videos, not just wowing us, but inspiring a better day with that infectious smile. Keep on being you, and best wishes on all of your endeavours.
I saw your channel here a few months ago and I liked the content of the short clips, that you do. Ii am not having any other social media and the time or will to watch how girls like you, Lauren, are living their lives and what they do on a daily basis. BUT I have sent some of your short clips to my seven year old daughter, who is now your fan and started jumping rope! I am writing this to express my awe of what you do and my admirations to what an athlete you actually are, as I have watched also a part of your video while on a vacation!
I also must point the fact that your boyfriend/husband is amazingly positive person and I am happy to see how you are having fun together while making all that stuff!
Thank you for the inspiration and keep on going!
It’s hard to admit publicly when you get scammed. Good for you for warning people.
I think you’re one of the most beautiful and honest people that has ever made a video and I hope you never stop and I’m sorry you went through what you went through and the people that did you wrong I hope they suffer for everything they did because it’s only right you don’t do good people wrong you keep working and keep on struggling because your videos make me happy
It actually IS really important to detail scams. It does NOT help people to do it, it helps others from falling for them. Hang in there!
Lauren did discuss this with me above, and with ANY institution: call that institution back on the phone number you have for them. Never verify yourself on an inbound call.
all over the place is EXACTLY what we love. Please continue with this format, it seems more like what most people's lives are really like. Makes you more of a real person. Thanks so much Lauren. I really enjoy the "British-isms".
Hi Lauren , I'm so sorry you got scammed , but delighted you got your money back, I've been watching some of your videos since I've been recovering from aml blood cancer I had a bonemarrow transplant and I was in intensive care and nearly did not make it , im on the mend now , so I just wanted thank you so much for what you do , and you helped me get through, just remember your a absolutely kind person , take a bit of time for yourself from time to time , as life is so short and goes quickly , bless you Lauren your one in a million , 😁
my favorite thing about Lauren is that she’s really intelligent and thoughtful. She obviously has business savvy.
Don’t beat yourself up over this incident it can happen to anyone, you’ll get over it and you won’t get scammed again.
Lauren You really are inspiring. Glad to see your doing well and what you have so much passion for. Love how you share your stories.
I wouldn't feel bad Lauren, you did okay. On a complicated scam level it ranks a 7 - 8 out of 10, 10 being the most severe. At My Bank a 3rd party fraud office called when something happened...On the message they wanted me to give them all this info... I looked up the number and the name of the company ...I was like wait a minute that doesn't sound like my bank, nothing matches. I called the bank and they even had to call and check on it.... They confirmed the business that called Me was indeed their fraud dept.. Many times legitiment calls can look like a scam, and a scams can look genuine... You didn't do anything wrong Lauren I assure You... I Love You 💜💜💜
😮hope you and all your loved ones are doing well and you guys stay healthy which is so much worth more than wealthy..God Bless you 🙏 your husband and all your loved ones..please keep up all the hard work that you guys continue to do with your videos 😮
Your jump routines are just simply nothing short of amazing and mesmerizing! Thank you for the smiles.
Great vlog Lauren. It just shows us a snippet of your life, which is all we need to know. Im sorry about you being scammed, but I'm happy you got the money back😊. Hard work always pays off, and bigger things will come your way. Btw, loving the eyebrows😁🤣
Lauren, you’re experiencing what every hard working, “built it myself” business owner experiences…those long moments of introspection. It’s tough, but you’re up to it. Make well thought out decisions, learn from any mistakes, but…don’t spend time second guessing your decisions. 👍
Enjoy your break Lauren. You deserve it.
You are amazing, Lauren. You always give me positive energy when I see your smile. I always keep smiling 😘
Just keep being real with us. You’d be surprised how many people fail on RUclips because of situations like this. It happened to me almost 3 years ago and I’ve been broken ever since. You’re stronger than most
A someone who owned a business an turned their hobby into a business. Always keep your passion an why you started this before the business side of things because business has a way of taking the passion away just saying keep the passion 😊😊
Thank God you were able to recoup your funds. It really hacks me off that anyone would do that to you. I’m glad you were able to turn it around and make it positive and get the lesson from the experience and move on. Don’t apologize for showing your realness. I appreciate that you take the time to do voiceovers to your videos and all that goes along with it. It’s not just like talking about it and it happens! Great job, as always. Thank you ❤ and I agree - LOVE those 2 colors and the jewelry. I’ve had pierced ears for 53 years 😱 and I feel naked AF without earrings. Like seriously. 🤷🏻♀️
Thanks for sharing! Hope you are well too! Respect your diligence!!!
So glad your star continues shining bright!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Lauren, bc you're the best at what you do, don't mean you're immune from stress n shitty days (no-one is) you kept on tho with a smile, your 'all over the place ' blogs are why ppl love you (they show you are REAL) please keep on doin your stuff n stay 1 jump ahead of depression, show ppl attitude matters ✌️
People don't understand that the prices of things are never going back down. This inflation is deeper than we think. Those buying groceries are well aware that the real inflation is much over 10%. The increments don't match our income, yet certain investors still earn over $365,000 in stocks and assets. Wish I could accomplish that.
Financial planning is like navigation. If you know where you are and where you want to go, navigation isn't such a great problem. It's when you don't know the two points that it's difficult
Very possible! especially at this moment. Profits can be made in many different ways, but such intricate transactions should only be handled by seasoned market professionals.
Having an investment advisor is the best way to go about the stock market right now. I was going solo, but it wasn't working. I've been in touch with an advisor for a while now, and just last year, I made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.
Finding yourself a good broker is as same as finding a good wife, which you go less stress, you get just enough with so much little effort at things
I'm surprised that you just mentioned and recommend Ms Sofia Rachel. I met her at a conference in 2018 and we have been working together ever since.
Sounds interesting. I was planning to invest some few £ in some coins, stack them up and leave them for a few years, but seeing this changed my mindset. Thank you very much
Hey Lauren. Sorry to hear about the scam. That’s just awful. Stay awesome and motivating. A certain amount of anxiety is expected with all the increased responsibility of changing your business and increasing your outgoings. Try and counter this with some relaxation / meditation calming activities and talking to trusted people. Re taking care of your voice:
- Stay hydrated
- Drink plenty of water, especially when exercising.
- If you drink caffeinated beverages or alcohol, balance your intake with plenty of water.
- if it’s raspy, drink warm water or hotter water (or herbal tea)
- Take vocal naps-rest your voice throughout the day.
- Use a humidifier in your home. This is especially important in winter or in dry climates. Thirty percent humidity is recommended.
- Avoid or limit use of medications that may dry out the vocal folds, including some common cold and allergy medications. If you have voice problems, ask your pharmacist which medications would be safest for you to use.
- when speaking be conscious of volume and vocal strain. Keep it low and relaxed
- don’t talk for a long time in loud environments (think about ambient / background noise)
- try Vocalzone lozenges… a lot of people who sing or act use them.
- stay hydrated.
*** trust yourself*** and don’t let some A**Hat scammers steal your confidence. You are inspiration for a lot of people with good reason.
Yk when you said, you're grateful because your health is fine, your family is fine, and at the end of the day it's just money and you can take it back.. it's very inspiring. We magnify the things we're thankful for instead of focusing on the issue too much which will just somewhat causes D. Great wisdom there. :) Thank you :)
Nice to hear it got sorted out.
Been watching you for four days now, love the bloopers the routines, your jiggly bits(wink). you've even somehow made me buy a mat and skipping rope from Amazon today, to lose some timber.keep entertaining us and wish you the best ,sod the scammers .
First time I catch your Vlog! I enjoyed you seem like a wonderful person, sorry to hear about the scam. I know I told you already but YOU and Jump rope dude and Rush inspired me to start skipping been 4weeks now. Thx again for all your hard work. Scary to trust other I going through that right now.
I´m sorry to hear you got scammed, but I´m glad you got it sorted at the end. What you said people saying "you seem fine" etc. that sentense always p!sses me off. What people see, rarely is the same as how you feel, on the inside
Love your honesty and your portrayal is real not glammed up ❤❤
I am so sorry to hear you got scammed Lauren. It seems scammers are everywhere these days. I hope everything works out ❤
Sorry to hear you got scammed, Love your videos, from city of Anchorage, Alaska, hope everything is ok and you get through it, Love
You are a positive representation of a professional speaking leader. D Loise surely does pick professionalism.
You are amazing with your routines. The energy and passion you have is outstanding. Don't give up
Glad you came out of the scam okay. Big learning experience. They get more sophisticated all the time. New angles. Love your work. Your a great ambassador for health and fitness, motivation. More power to you.
Great Vid thanks Lauren - Thanks! Really interesting to hear about the reality (the Good AND Bad!!) of developing your business. Props to the bank..eventually!! 😆
Duck am 50 years old and it's great to see a young lady getting the most out of life we all see how hard the work is but you will reap the benefits mate well done u ,,
I’ve been lovinggggg your slow mo videos. I started skipping last year after discovering you and I loveee it. I used your app as well. Still work in progress but I can say you have definitely taught me a bunch of tricks . Still haven’t had the courage to send you video proof 😅
Great Video Lauren, I'm 67 in a few days so I don't jump rope, The things i love about you (and your RUclips content) it's all ways happy and puts me in a good mood, I love the effort you put into your #shorts, thanks for sharing
QUESTION: where did you get your oven mitts on your oven handle? Those are so cool. I’m sorry you got scammed. People these days can be so grimly. 🙏❤️. Hang in there 😃
Authentic! Sometimes it's better to remain 'small & simple'. All the best
I absolutely love your shorts and now waiting on my first jump rope since elementary school!! I'm so excited and nervous but you make it look so fun
Stay safe and hope everything is ok with you..... Don't trust no one.... Great show everytime.....
Thank You For Being So Real!!!!
Hey Lauren!
Ohhh...😮I'm so sorry that you got scammed...😢
Love Fancy Feats, maybe more 101 jump rope vids?😉
I like your vlogs ❤
Glad to hear it, thank you 🫶🏼
I cannot imagine having significant criticism for what you do as IMO you have been as professional and so dedicated, constantly emanating positive energy at every turn, and working so hard to provide good content for multiple generations. My wife and I are so afraid of scams that anything at all that looks suspicious is either reported or discarded ASAP. I hope you and yours have a relatively carefree and fun vacation; although I cannot know all the work you do to keep the ball rolling, from my point of view you obviously work so hard to generate content and IMO you deserve time off! :)
Thank you very much for sharing what is going on in your life.....I can relate... just take a breath and keep moving forward... you got this
Lauren, dont feel so bad. Its happened to me as well. It was 2 years of me helping her, hearing promises, trust me trust me she would say, im not like those other bitches. Well, she got me good. I wont say how much, but she cleaned me out. So yes I understand how you feel, and I cant believe there are people out there that do not care about what they end up doing to someone. Keep on smiling!1 You are an inspiration!!!
How are your eyebrows made of eye lashes...? ❤
Life isn't always fun and games. Hope those scammers will get their karma. Thanks for sharing!
Sorry you got scammed, but happy that your bank had your back on this. For those of you wanting to know what actually happened, I'll just say this. Unless your credit card company or bank call or text you to verify whether or not an unusual charge on your credit card was actually you, they will not initiate contact with you. In general, do not give out any personal of financial information unless you're the one that has called them.
Lauren, there are a lot of scams everywhere. You can protect your assets by accessing commercial insurance for both cyber liability and crime policies. You are likely at the point where a good conversation with a commercial insurance Broker in your home area would be of use. Suggest that you take a couple of hours and make that happen to protect you and your husband and of course your brand. Given that you are in the UK Lloyds brokers would of course pop to mind.
I loved your vlog. You do tons of everything. Thank you for all you do. Yes, take a break. Everyone needs some rest and private time.
Thank you for being honest ❤
Thank you for being real, and talking about your experiences, love from Vancouver Island, B.C. Canada.
The internet is the root of all evil! Theses things didn’t happen before the World Wide Web. Good luck Laren❤
Unfortunately, crime, embezzlement, and employee theft have been around for the last 200 years.,
I recently honestly had a half million dollars stolen from me through a hack so I feel ya. Took me a half year to get back from it. Still makes me sick when I think of it. Ruined my retirement. Anyway I understand where you are.
My rule is never to give any information or even trust a caller unless I placed the call. Sometimes banks will call me and they’ll say oh it’s the fraud department and we just need to confirm a few details. I know full well that I did a transaction that they’ve flagged up, but I’ll refuse to confirm anything when they call me. I tell them that I’ll call back to ensure I know who I’m speaking with. Sometimes they don’t like it, but it’s better to be safe. They will sometimes say but you can see the caller ID to verify it’s the bank. And I say, do you know how easy that is to fake?
Be strong girl .. just let it go .. it sucks yes…just don’t let it get to you…❤❤
Loved watching you Lauren, you are truly a beautiful person, and enjoyed your natural humorous personality. Keep having fun. Cheers ❤
Have a dad or older brother you trust to help you.. a must as you grow … important.
Lauren you are always great and beautiful you would actually look good wearing a bin liner great blog ❤
Feel sorry for you Lauren! You pretty girl grow up please.😢
Thanks for sharing everything, including the ickies. It’s important, in my opinion, for RUclipsrs to be honest so thank you!!🙏
Always interesting to see if you could pull it off. Good job 👍
loved this "catch up" video !
I like how you can show us your amazing tricks on jump ropes
The most stressing point is when you start to grow. But my favorite expression: Could have been worst
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for this vodeo, an insight behind the face of the social media is always very interesting, glad you got the mo ey back. Keep going!
scammed?! that sucks! you're the best! people are the worst!
Laura, one thing we all should pay attention to is to trust in the natural order of things...if we are thinking all the time we move away from the heart cave...we need to open the heart to merge with the creator...as the east says; unless wd go within, we go without! This is the way to have guidance and wisedom from the creator...by going within we become more of who we are. Our lives will be lesa stressful and you will hv what you need when you need it, things will go smoothly and attract those that will be there for us. Peace and Love.
You are always amazing
Appreciate you 🫶🏼
Sorry for all your troubles, we've been there too. Wishing you nothing but the best. I really enjoy watching you work, youre amazing. Can you do anything about the copy cats of your stuff on Facebook?
Love your videos even if they are all over the place. Great job. Thanks. ❤️❤️
you’re not lucky, you’re good.
🌞 You took a jump and a leap! Well done!
⚘️🕊♥️✨️
You had me at "Cheese solves everything" Thank you for everything you do.......
The days of scams being laughably obvious (like those emails from a Nigerian bank everybody used to get) are over.
You are so beautiful and charismatic I love your videos !!!
Loved the random vlog. More like this please!
She's so fit it's unreal❤
Loved it!
Well done!
All the best of luck Lauren you and your fella are both so proper down to Earth. You genuinely deserve your success as it's all come about purely through your hard work and dedication. May everything just keep getting bigger and even more successful!
I fucking love your energy
Two things here, more important is her talking about building the business
Here is a very odd question, can you take a picture of the ingredients in the UK Corn Flakes? It’s always fun to compare to the crap that’s in the US food
Depiction means the act of something
Nice one Lauren. Yes, great idea on this type of vid. Interesting and laughs to go with it. 😊
Non capisco la tua lingua ma dalle traduzioni sui commenti mi sembra di capire che sei stata vittima di una truffa. Sono profondamente dispiaciuto di questa situazione e spero che si risolva nel migliore modo possibile per te. Forza sempre Lauren!!! From Stefano your italian friend ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
She said the scam situation was depressing. A scam situation shouldn't cause Depression. She might be having real Depression. Lauren I would advise you to see a doctor and talk about Depression. Losing a lot of money pales in comparison to Depression.
