Description
I got a text message which said it was from Indeed for an opportunity to make some extra money. They had me do small task and then had me do another small task with something else. I had to put money into it and I would get more back. They seemed legit, I was getting commission for some of the small tasks. Once that gave me some lucky mall tasks I had to do 1-3 in order to get me money back. Of course the last task I had to do they told me some bull **** excuse on why it didn’t work and I’ll have to put more money into it to finish the tasks in order to get a refund code. Which means in order for me to get crypto currency. This all happened within a week. They seemed real, legit and felt like I had some hope to make some money on the side. I was stupid enough to fall for it and spend $1,900. I don’t get how people can be so cruel, give people hope and faith. I told them I lost my job, I have kids and I was desperate for money. They took everything I had. There’s nothing I can do because I willingly did this. They win and I have lost everything.
