    The headline should be ‘….IGR rose by 15 billion’ and not ‘….IGR rose to 15 billion’. Please check your facts right.

    I was ripped off by a binary option online website in March. I lost about $66,000 to them and they denied all my withdrawal request, and gave me all sort of filth request. It was a really hard time for me because that was all I had and they tricked me into investing the money with a guarantee that I will make profit from the investment. They took all my money and I didn’t hear from them anymore. I was able to recover all the money I lost just last month with the help of Tradersrecovery aT cash4 u. Com
