00:00Here's the wild story of a founder whose own family tried to steal her entire company.
00:05So have you ever had your family try to steal your success?
00:08It's a total nightmare.
00:10Welcome to my channel, HerWarning.
00:12It all started with this one text from her cousin.
00:15They were dividing her company.
00:17And then, bam, an email from her brother.
00:20The subject, Sunvolt Family Reorganization.
00:23He just declared himself CEO, said there was a family vote she'd never even heard of.
00:28So she checks the shareholder registry, and her name is just gone.
00:32Completely erased.
00:34And then this.
00:36Locked out of her own system.
00:37This wasn't a mistake.
00:39It was a coup.
00:40You know, looking back at old emails, the resentment was there all along.
00:44Just pure jealousy.
00:46Her lawyer dug in, and what did she find?
00:48Forged signatures and a whole email trail.
00:51Okay, so with proof in hand, Heather drove right to headquarters to confront them.
00:55Showtime.
00:56She walked straight into that boardroom and laid down the law.
01:00No way.
01:01Their big claim?
01:02A $50,000 loan.
01:04A loan she'd already paid back, with interest.
01:07Then she just read his own words out loud.
01:10You could have heard a pin drop.
01:11That was it.
01:12This meeting is over.
01:13Get out.
01:14And security made sure they did.
01:16Right away, Heather secured everything.
01:18New passwords.
01:19Two-factor authentication.
01:20The works.
01:21But of course, they weren't done.
01:24Six months later, they sued her.
01:26A total desperation move.
01:28In court, though, it was a slam dunk.
01:30The judge saw right through it.
01:31Case dismissed.
01:33And to add insult to injury, the court made them pay her $15,000 in legal fees.
01:37And the ultimate revenge?
01:38A year later, Sunvolt was worth $50 million.
01:42She won big.
01:44If this story hit home for you, please like, comment, and share.
01:47It really helps support her warning.
01:50Her story really proves it, right?
01:51Success isn't just winning.
01:53It's protecting what you've built.
