请问HN:我母亲被诈骗,所有积蓄都被骗走了。我该怎么办?
今天是我人生中最糟糕的一天。我们住在一个靠近柬埔寨的国家,正如你所知道的,这里简直是骗子的天堂。今天,这件事发生在我的家庭身上。
我母亲接到了一个骗子的电话。他们告诉她需要处理一些税务问题,并证明她的银行账户有足够的资金。在短短几分钟内,他们就欺骗并操控她输入了银行的动态验证码。她所有的积蓄现在都没了。
更令人感到悲剧的是,去年我为我们国家的一个政府部门设计并帮助他们建立了一个大型系统。这个系统可以追踪全国范围内的资金流动,了解资金的来源。我对此感到非常自豪。这是我一生中最大的成就。即使没有人知道我建造了这个系统,我也觉得没关系。
但现在我无法保护我自己的母亲。我无法保护我的家人。我的系统可以追踪资金,但几乎不可能把钱追回来。
当我去警局时,仅在一个小区域内,一天就有超过20个案件。一个勤奋的学生把全家所有的钱都汇出,以为是用于大学费用或出国。一个老工厂工人失去了所有的退休储蓄。许多人失去了一切。那时我意识到,我所建造的系统,我曾引以为豪的系统,是远远不够的。
我自己的积蓄也没了。(我母亲被骗借了很多钱并汇给了骗子,现在这责任在我身上。)我原本对未来几年的计划是:做开源工作,写关于数学和编程的书,创建一个理想的Go网络框架,回馈社区。现在这一切都没了。
但这不仅仅是关于我。我仍然可以重新开始。我有足够的力量重建我的生活。但谁来保护像我母亲这样的普通人?或者一个贫困的学生?或者一个工厂工人?还有那么多其他人?
我可以构建系统。我可以建立可以扩展到整个国家的分布式系统。但这又有什么意义呢?我该怎么办?
我已经阅读Hacker News 12到13年了,有时会用其他账户发帖。我现在在这里写信是想向这个社区寻求建议和帮助。
如果有人有类似案例的经验,或者对现实中可以做些什么的想法,甚至是关于如何在这样的事情之后继续前进的建议,我将非常感激。我会将这个账户保持半私密状态,因为根据上述细节,我认为我国家的一些工程师可能会认出我。

Today is the worst day of my life. We live in a country near Cambodia, and as you know, it is kind of a dream land for scammers. Today, it happened to my family.<p>My mother received a call from a scammer. They told her she needed to process some tax issue and prove that her bank account had enough money. In just a few minutes, they tricked her and manipulated her into entering banking OTP codes. All of her savings are now gone.<p>What makes this more dramatic is that last year I architected and helped a government department in my country build a big system. This system can track money flows across the whole country, to know where money comes from. I was very proud of this. It is the biggest achievement of my life. Even if nobody knows I built it, that was fine.<p>But now I cannot protect my own mother. I cannot protect my family. My system can track the money, but it is almost impossible to get it back.<p>When I went to the police, just in one small area, there were more than 20 cases in a single day. A hardworking student sent all their family's money, thinking it was for university fees or going abroad. An old factory worker lost all her retirement savings. So many people lost everything. That is when I realized that the system I built, the system I was proud of, is not enough.<p>All my own savings are gone too. (My mother was scammed into borrowing a lot of money and sending it to the scammers, and now it is my responsibility.) I had plans for the next few years: to do open source work, to write books about math and programming, to create a dream Go web framework, to give back to the community. Now all of that is gone.<p>But this is not only about me. I can still start over. I am strong enough to rebuild my life. But who will protect people like my mother? Or a poor student? Or a factory worker? Or so many others?<p>I can build systems. I can build distributed systems that scale to a whole country. But for what? What should I do?<p>I have been reading Hacker News for 12 to 13 years, sometimes posting from other accounts. I am writing here now to ask for advice and help from this community.<p>If anyone has experience with similar cases, or ideas on what can realistically be done, or even advice on how to move forward after something like this, I would really appreciate it. I will keep this account semi-private, because with the details above, I think some engineers from my country may recognize me.
