Description
I was offered a Remote position by name, quoting my Indeed Resume. I was then given over to my trainer and coworker who answered my questions going forward. I was led through step by step how to set-up their platform scheme of payment and to get these tasks started. The training gave you some points, because the trainer made a bunch of money training you for commision and you got a little bit of it to start with. then you put more in to bring it to 100 points to start the work. There was a few dollars i had left in my cash app they pointed out. I argued a bit but gave in because I was told it will be returned after the end of the tasks. It was only a few dollars and not my bank account so I was ok for the few Dollars. well then every day i had to take the money back out and put 100 back in through bitcoin. Much earned was sucked up with fees, plus they kept only paying a few dollars a day. I said several times that I won't put any more of my own personal money in. I was assured that from the day i had worked for them 2 days I shouldn't have to anymore. Then I joined the group chat. I noticed another got this "lucky order" and they said their account wouldn't go forward. all the company responded with was to highlight the profits in their screenshot. this made me nervous. I did also think it was odd that many of the coworkers were quite new. I worked 4 days 80 tasks a day reviewing and critiquing apps. Actually giving real feedback, about 7 hours a day to complete. Then I ended up getting one of these "lucky orders" for $694.00 It wouldn't let me decline the "prize". I contacted customer service and they told me nothing could be done but me paying with my own money and they stated that publicly. They said that I had to put in $594.00 to get the bonus money and continue working. They took my $100 I had to put in plus all the extra rates by not letting me keep the working wage in there, so I am out the money and the job.
