Dearest Sriracha Freaks,

Welcome to Love Hard, Inc. - the new home of Jojo's Sriracha and former Love of Jojo, Inc.

Why the new name? When I named my company Love of Jojo, Inc. in 2012 it was just that - me making the sriracha I loved and sharing it with all of you. I made my first three batches of Jojo's Sriracha in the back of a deli the size of a small closet. Those batches made about 150 jars and it took forever. 

When I found a shared kitchen space that was much bigger, I relied on the help of family and friends who donated their time and energy to help production keep moving. They lugged jars up and down stairs and packed online orders in my studio apartment. I would then wheel those orders to the post office in the same granny cart I used to pick up peppers with at the Union Square Farmers Market.

When it was time to ramp up production, I didn't have the money for the industrial blender I needed, so I turned to my community for help. Together, we crowdfunded $4,430. I didn't have a website, but everyone helped share the love on our facebook page.

As an entrepreneur and general go-getter, it's easy to feel like I have to do everything on my own. Except growing your dream alone sucks. The real joy is sharing the journey with others and learning how to ask for help. This month we will produce over 2000 jars, but I won't do it alone. I'll have my first employee (who also happens to be my little sister) right by my side. She fills jars more precisely than I ever did and makes sure no batch is too seedy. Maybe even more importantly, we make breakfast and lunch together in the kitchen and never hesitate to have a dance party when just the right song comes on.

My company isn’t just about me – it’s about all the people who give their time, talent and energy to create something that we otherwise couldn’t make on our own. We stick to our guns and never release a product unless we’re absolutely in love with it first. Because that’s really the point. Love Hard.

We couldn’t be happier to show off our new website and online store. And if that wasn’t enough, we’re also introducing two new products: zinfandel and petite sirah sriracha infused with Ravenswood wines. We’re totally in love and we hope you will be too…

    My name is Billy Harlan from Texas, USA. I was targeted by a group of individuals who ended up stealing a significant amount of money from me through crypto and Bitcoin.
    It all began about two months ago when I received an email promising high returns if I invested in crypto and forex. They presented detailed earnings reports and trading charts that looked very convincing. Looking back, I can admit it was easy to believe.
    At the time, I had no idea I was being set up. I started by investing just $5,000 and my within two weeks, I had invested $218,000. However, they claimed my investment had grown to $703,000. To this day, I’m still shocked at how they were able to convince me to invest that much.
    Once I realized it was a scam, I contacted the authorities but unfortunately, there was nothing they could do to recover the funds. Not willing to give up, I reached out to a few friends. One of them recommended Morphohack, a private investigator and fund recovery team.
    Their team was incredibly helpful and professional. Morphohack worked hard to help me recover my funds, and I’m very grateful for their support. I’m sharing this in case anyone else finds themselves in a similar situation, there are people out there who can help and you can reach them by email: Morphohack@cyberservices(.)com

    Just as farmers feed pigs to fatten them up until they reach market size, such is the nature of the “Pig Butchering Scam”—a cruel and calculated scheme I recently experienced. It nearly cost me my life and left me feeling hopeless, until I came across SpyHost Cybersecurity Company.

    How did it all start?

    It began when I stumbled upon a widely advertised investment company on Meta (Facebook), promising unbelievably high returns. Blinded by the hope of securing a better future for my children and future generations, I invested everything I had—10 BTC. In hindsight, it was greed and desperation that led me into such a devastating trap. But life sometimes throws us into the worst situations so that we can learn the hardest lessons and gain invaluable experience.

    At this point, I urge everyone out there to be extremely cautious with any investment opportunity that seems too good to be true—because it probably is.

    Fortunately, my story took a positive turn when a member of a social media group I belonged to referred me to SpyHost Cybersecurity Company. Skeptical but desperate, I decided to give them a try. To my absolute astonishment, they turned out to be legitimate experts in crypto asset recovery.

    From the moment the recovery process started, I was speechless. I had heard of hackers and cybersecurity specialists before, but SPYHOST truly exceeded all expectations. Within 72 hours, they recovered my lost funds using advanced tools and software—some of which are only available on the dark web. They described my case as “severe,” making the successful recovery even more impressive and a testament to their expertise.

    SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY can be contacted via:

    [Spyhost@cyberdude.com] or WhatsApp: +1 (228) 313‑3152

    This is the least I can do to show my gratitude—and to help others who might be going through a similar situation. If you’re a victim of crypto fraud, do not lose hope. Reach out to SPYHOST. They are the best in the field.

    Victim of a Pig-Butchering Scam? Here’s How I Recovered My Crypto

    If you’ve fallen victim to a Pig-Butchering scam, you’re not alone, and more importantly, there’s still hope.
    I’m sharing my story to raise awareness and help others who’ve been scammed recover their stolen digital assets. Two months ago, I lost $1,846,000 worth of Bitcoin and ETH in one of these sophisticated frauds.
    It began with someone posing as a popular investor named “Ryan” on Instagram. His account looked legitimate, He reached out offering what seemed like a private, lucrative crypto investment opportunity. Everything seemed real, so I invested. Over the course of several weeks, I transferred significant amounts of crypto.
    Then, without warning, the account was wiped clean. My entire balance gone.
    I reported it to the authorities immediately, but despite their efforts, there was little they could do. Crypto transactions are notoriously hard to reverse, and scammers often route funds through multiple wallets to hide their tracks. Thankfully, a colleague with strong government connections referred me to a professional recovery team called Morphohack. He had heard they were reputable and had helped others in similar situations.
    With nothing left to lose, I reached out and shared every detail I had, transaction records, addresses, communications. The Morphohack team responded quickly and took immediate action. Incredibly, within 96 hours, they traced my assets through the blockchain and successfully recovered the majority of my stolen funds. I was in shock. After everything, I thought my money was gone for good, but they delivered what I thought was impossible.
    I’m sharing this as a lifeline.
    If you or someone you know has been targeted by a Pig-Butchering scam, don’t suffer in silence. Reach out and explore recovery options.
    You can contact Morphohack via E-mail:MORPHOHACK@CYBERSERVICES . COM
    Please share this to help others who may be struggling in silence, there is a path forward.
