Guten Tag from Germany! Let me say a few words about myself.

After an accident back in 2018 the weight started to come on. My peak was 126kg, and in 2021 it hit me that something had to change. Keto was the key for me — almost 46 Kilos came off with keto plus a bit of nordic walking.

Then I began working out, put on muscle and by the beginning of 2024 I was very fit. That was when I lost someone I loved, and I ended up in a deep hole. Sport stopped and eating started again. So now I am at 105kg...

Which brings me to why I am a dumbass.

The peptide rabbit hole is what I fell into, mostly on Reddit. Then I came across a comment from somebody saying that "right sources" means the right prices — and not too much. I messaged him privately and we got talking. He taught me plenty about peptides, doses, mixing and so on. His Reddit account was old with lots of karma, so nothing looked suspect.

He named a vendor and passed on the contact. Everything looked fine, the communication was top notch — and I took every euro I had saved and spent it on Reta, Cagri, Klow and BAC. Altogether almost a thousand euros.

Last Tuesday I made 1 payment, and the vendor said the package would get a tracking ID the moment it reached Germany. The vendor also said the shop would be shut from Thursday of last week because of Chinese holidays. Then on Sunday morning I saw the WhatsApp account had been completely deleted — I had a bad feeling and wanted to ask the guy from Reddit. No idea when he did it, but his account was gone too... 🙁 I started digging, found my way here to the real one’s vendor page, asked whether the number was his, and he said it was not.

So I was scammed out of all my savings — I know a thousand euros is not much to some people, but for me it was everything, coming after paying for a burial and so on.

And here I am, starting over: saving money again, gathering more information and hoping for something better.

Thanks for reading my story.

Hope you enjoy your day.

Regards

Willkommen von einem weiteren Deutschen, der gerade erst mit Reta angefangen hat (und von den vielen Infos noch etwas erschlagen ist). Es tut mir leid, von deinem Verlust zu lesen.

Thanks a lot! Fancy swapping notes on Reta? 🙂

Vielen Dank, mein Guter.
 
Das tut mir wirklich leid für dich. Wenigstens bist du jetzt hier auf dem richtigen Weg. Ich würde dir raten, dich hier einfach selbst etwas umzuschauen, dann wirst du fündig.

Liebe Grüße

Danke schön! Klar, ich bin schon eifrig am Ball.

Viele Grüße
 
Grüße von jemandem aus Griechenland, der in Deutschland wohnt!

It genuinely grieves me that this happened to you, and I’m so sorry about the loved one you lost.

I’ve been scammed as well — not over peptides, an entirely different situation — but the sting feels exactly the same. You have my sympathy.

There is a wealth of information on here. The search field is the tool I lean on most: whatever I need, I type it in there — Reta, BAC water and so on. The firsthand experience members share is worth its weight in gold!

All the best for the road ahead.

Klar. Viel kann ich dazu noch nicht beitragen, ich habe gestern zum ersten Mal "gepinnt". (Bin ein Schatz. Zumindest meistens... 🤣). Die erste Ladung Vials kam von einem EU-Reseller, und jetzt grabe ich mich durch den Kaninchenbau der China Vendors, Group Testings "and all that jazz"... weiter.

Yep, I’ve already climbed a way down that rabbit hole haha.

Same to you. 🙂

Das hört sich doch gut an, mit "meistens lieb" kann ich sehr gut leben - haha. 😆 Ich habe gestern ebenfalls zum ersten Mal gepinnt, allerdings über eine "richtige" Spritze statt über den bequemen Pen. Ich schicke dir gleich eine PN!

Edit: Keine Ahnung, wie man hier eine PN schreibt 😀.
 
Hey,

My condolences on your loss.

Fellow German here as well, and I began Reta roughly 2 weeks back. It has been genuinely impressive.

Mine came from a reseller too, which turned out pretty costly, and that is how a bit of reddit reading eventually led me to this forum.

Happy to swap notes on how your first stretch with Reta has gone — just message me.

Viele Grüße

Moin und vielen Dank...

Gern! Leider kann ich dir keine PN schicken. Ich vermute, das geht erst, wenn man eine Weile dabei ist.

Viele Grüße

Ja, das ist gut möglich.

Mal schauen, ab wann das für uns erlaubt ist...

Echt schade, dass eine PN an dich nicht durchgeht.
 
Moin moin, I’m not German myself, though I’ve been living in this country for quite some time.

I have no idea how tall you are, though 126 kg would very likely have put you in class II obesity back then. Any bloodwork since? Someone I know was in much the same spot, and his doctor ended up stepping in once prediabetes showed up. Preventive check-ups are worth doing — the insurance setup in Germany makes it easy (Vorsorgezusatzversicherung), since a small premium gets you a testing budget.
 
I stand 181cm tall. Yes, bloodwork was done both before and after I began reta. The numbers came back far improved, and the doctor was stunned. Nearly every marker is close to normal now.
