Description

I received a text message offering me a online part-time remote job with Animalz Digital Marketing. I would get a base salary plus commission. The job was to complete 3 sets of 38 task per day. So I agreed and started my training. After completing the first 38 task, I earned $70 commission. When I click start to do the next set of 38 task, the system did not give me more task. So I asked my trainer why it was not working, She then advised me that I needed to have $100 in my company account before I could proceed. She told me she would walk me through the process to deposit $30 of my own money into the account. I told her "No I should not need to use my own money to fund the company". I then asked how she got my name and number for this opportunity, she said she paid Allegis Group recruitment. She then said "You have $70, so you only need to add $30. After you complete 3 sets of task today you can withdraw it together with our commission. So each day the minimum requirement is a deposit of $100, once the tasks are complete you can withdraw it anytime. I did not make the deposit. The next day she text me and explains that I need a crypto wallet and a PayPal account. Again I told her I wasn't interested. Then she said, "This is an international online platform, our users come from all over the world. Therefore we have chosen cryptocurrencies with better liquidity to pay our salaries and commissions. We are not investing in cryptocurrencies, and your PayPal USD is at a 1:1 exchange rate with the US dollar. I was still uncertain about this being legit. They are very convincing that it is a good easy job. So I talked to a friend and they found the scam information of Google. So I once again declined the offer. Thank goodness before I lost any money.
