<prompt> Human: So as the title says, I got scammed out of 2500 a couple weeks ago. TL;DR of the scam: A cheque came in the mail and I deposited it, withdrew cash and transferred most of it via Western Union. I know, Im stupid, but it happened. Lets move past that.I am a student in my third year at a university in Ontario, Canada. Luckily, I have no student loans. My credit card is almost maxed out at about 1000. My bank account has been frozen until I pay the amount oweing back 2479.23 in full. I have about 10 in cash, which is the last of my money until I head to my parents for the summer in 2 weeks. For the sake of this thread, lets assume I have no personal contacts that can loan me the money. I have horrible financial management, even before the scam; the scam just highlighted the issue for me and Im ready to learn.So far, I have tried to apply for a loan to cover the damages so that I can keep my bank account active, but it was rejected. I have no income at the moment, but as my school year comes to an end, Im going to get a summer job.My questions to you guys:1. How can I survive the next 2 weeks with only 10 while staying somewhat healthy if I can. Right now, Im eating rice, spaghetti and bread for most of my meals.2. Are there any other options for me to get a loan so that my bank account doesnt go into debt collection?3. What is some advice or links you can give to help me stay financially on track once I get my summer job? Edit: Im going to start reading the links on the side.  <response>: so the prince in Africa wasnt real? lol..All joking aside.. Based on the above Im going to assume that this needs to be said:- DO NOT TAKE OUT A PAY DAY LOAN!!! they are ALSO a scam to avoid. - if it seems to good to be true, it is. Have you called the bank to explain the situation? Credit Karma is a decent resource to read up on financial health, also read through the sidebar on this sub.
