Description

I was invited by text to start working online as an independent contractor. The training was all done on WhatsApp by an individual. There is no manual, there is no contract. The training is minimal and insufficient in my opinion. The "work" involves the transfer of your money in the form of cryptocurrency. The crypto is obtained online via crypto exchanges, like CashApp and Crypto.com. The money is 'working capital' on the web platform hosted by FlightPath. Workers aka Users put in a minimum of $100 and view items for sale to boost ratings of views online. [The fancy name for this is "Search Engine Optimization.] Views originating in this setting, with money on the line, is worth more to advertisers than a mere click. There is no opportunity to purchase these items. However, if the value exceeds your ability to cover a certain percentage of the value, Flightpath requires you to transfer in money to cover it. You are assured that you will get it back, it is sitting safely in your Flightpath account, they say. All seems good until it isn't. The line your trainer gives you is that the so-called "Combination Products" you encounter are good luck. However, as you view a few dozen items every stint, you keep encountering combinations, I got three on my last stint. I couldn't pay the amount needed. I was locked out of working viewing items on the platform. When I finally got it paid off there were other obstacles. Whether it was good luck or bad they have a virtual slot machine wheel which I spun and I was awarded a lot of money. However, all of it sits inside that account of mine at Flight Path and they keep inventing reasons why I can't withdraw the money. The first time the ransom was eight thousand. Then the next ransom was six thousand dollars. Which they say they put in my account but that does me no good. I still am blocked from viewing items on their platform, that is, I can't work nor can I withdraw my money.
