He Offered A Hand... And Pulled Me Into Hell | Unpacked The Second Chapter - EP12 | S2
Eric Mokaleng's harrowing journey from victim to survivor reveals the devastating impact of betrayal and the extraordinary power of resilience.Growing up in an abusive household while his parents worked in Johannesburg, Eric endured unimaginable trauma at the hands of his uncle and aunt following his grandmother's death, finding solace only in his passion for music and art. When his mother lost her job in 2014, plunging the family into financial crisis, a desperate Eric saw hope in a friend's introduction to someone who promised to change his life for the better. In this gripping episode, Eric courageously recounts how that single meeting led to his unwitting involvement in fraud and money laundering schemes that nearly destroyed his future. He shares the profound betrayal of trust that occurred when he provided personal information to a stranger who exploited his vulnerability and dreams, the shame and fear he experienced upon discovering the truth, and the arduous path he's traveled toward healing and redemption. Eric's powerful testimony illuminates the dangers of financial desperation, the sophisticated tactics of those who prey on the vulnerable, and the extraordinary strength required to rebuild one's life after such profound deception.Do not miss a minute of this story on Unpacked The Second Chapter Season Two, airing every Tuesday at 18h00 CAT, exclusively on YouTube and major podcast platforms.#UnpackedTheSecondChapter Connect with us on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UnpackedShowSA/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unpackedshowTwitter: https://twitter.com/unpackedshowTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@unpackedshowFeel free to suggest the topics that you'd like for us to unpack using our community server in Discord: https://discord.gg/vPhtn8SZB3.https://linkin.bio/unpackedshowJoin this channel's membership to get access to special perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQLNY8wiWxrQm5rFv7TSkHQ/join
