A woman identified as Lora Smith has broken down in tears on TikTok after allegedly losing $2 million (approximately KSh 260 million) to a man based in Kenya who reportedly disappeared the moment the money landed in his hands.
In a video, Lora described how she was persuaded to wire the enormous sum to the individual after he allegedly convinced her he was a verified agent.
She said she trusted the arrangement completely, only for the man to vanish without leaving any trace once the transfer was complete.
Lora said she had no reason to doubt the man at the time of the transaction, explaining that he had presented himself as someone she could rely on professionally.

The moment the money cleared, however, all contact ceased. She could not reach him through any channel, and nothing has been recovered since.
The tearful clip, shared on her TikTok account @lorafig2, shows Lora visibly distressed as she recounts the experience, her voice breaking as she describes the magnitude of what she allegedly lost.
