Description

I was initially contacted by text message from 18063681808. The text said it was Madeline from Dice. The text said "We're offering an online job opportunity with daily pay ranging from $50 to $300. It's a great fit for anyone looking to earn a steady income quickly or explore new opportunities. These positions are available to individuals aged 23 and above. This opportunity was recommended via WhatsApp. Would you like to learn more about the details of this job?" I responded Yes. They said a certain Emily will contact me on WhatsApp. Emily contacted me on WhatsApp. She said she works for an app promotion company (Sensor Tower), and the role is "App Optimizer". "The main job is to use our real IP data to improve the ranking, downloads and exposure of merchant APPs in the app store. Ultimately the company gets paid and pays us salaries and commissions. You must complete 3 sets of 30 apps every day." I expressed interest. Emily walked me through the training at a training account on website at realtydady.com. It consisted of giving five-star ratings to 3 sets of 30 apps. After that, I was assigned my first task. I was told in order to start, I needed to deposit $36 to bring the account balance to $101. I was told once the task was completed, I would be able to withdraw $130. So I deposited $36 in crypto currency and completed the task. After that I was able to withdraw $132 back to my crypto wallet. All looked good on day one. On day two, I deposited $101 to get started. After completing a few tasks, the system said I needed to deposit another $121 to proceed. I was promised if I deposited $121 and completed the task, I would be able to withdraw $420-450. So I made that deposit as well. The next deposit requirement was $756. The explanation was I had received a "lucky task" with a higher bonus and commission, but I needed $756 to complete it. This was required in order to proceed or withdraw any money. Once I did that, they claimed some tasks were incomplete and I needed to add $1000 to fix them, and all my funds including the $1000 will be returned to me. I added the $1000 and then they said my credit score had dropped and I needed $2000 to repair it. I pushed back and my "trainer" Emily offered to help with $500. Within a few days, I send them the $1500 balance to "repair the credit". The assured me once the credit was repaired, I would be able to withdraw all my funds (which totaled about $4500 at this point). After sending the last $1500, I tried to withdraw the funds. They said I had made a withdrawal request in the middle of their credit repair process, it had interrupted the process, so I needed another $1000 to complete the credit score repair and withdraw about $5,500. I eventually sent the $1000. I told them I just needed to withdraw my funds, I did not need to complete any more tasks. They said that was fine. However, after the account balance reached $5,500, customer service continued to block my withdrawal request. They said the reason was that I had attained the threshold to upgrade from a VIP1 account to a VIP2 account (threshold was $5000). So they said I needed to upgrade to VIP2. I said Ok. They did the upgrade and said because I had upgraded, I needed to complete 10 more tasks as VIP tasks come in sets of 40. I told them I just wanted to withdraw my funds. They said it was not optional. So I proceeded to complete the optimization tasks on 10 more apps. On the 10th app, it said I had hit a "lucky task" and I needed to add $8860 to complete the task and withdraw my money. At this point I realized for sure that they were manipulating the system.
