Description
I was approached by text for a job opportunity with a complany called cloud it Guru. Online this appears to be a legitimate buisness but its not. This is scam website and has nothing do with the company IT Guru. This was a job for marketing optimization. I was trained by a mentor, or was the scammer. The mentor attempted to gain as much information from me as possible. The scam was based on fulfilling task daily. These were not really task but simple repetitive clicks on the computer requiring no work or thought. In the beginning you completed the task and took the money out of the "platform" and pulled it back to your crypto wallet. I initially put 3K into the platform, and pulled out 7K. But then to complete the last set of tasks, needed to add another 5K into the platform to complete the set. Without completeting the set you could NOT withdrawl your money. The scam was obvious then because I was asked to then put another 17K into the platform to complete the tasks. The scammer was trying to see how much I would put into the system. It look like there would be huge profits of grerater than 50K. But this is a total scam, there is no money there and there, I was never going to have the funds to get the set to close. The company name used was work.clouditgurudata.com. They use the whatsap to do all the communication and work with you to get the money into crypto currency and into the platform. They have a working group that looks fake on whats ap called Cloud It Guru
