Description

they did not give an email address, but also used a What's App phone # 646-271-3410. I communicated with someone named Kelly. She offered a job with flexible hours for an international marketing company. The job was to do product optimization for major companies. She said there would be paid training & quoted a very lucrative commission schedule. Once I finished the "training" she told me I did not meet the minimum required profit & would need to make up the difference before I would get paid. I kept questioning her to confirm that I had to pay something up front before I could get paid. I told her this seems like a scam. She denied it & tried to explain how it was legitimate. We communicated numerous times for about 4 days via What's App. What she had me do was log into their system, then rate various products (household items, appliances, clothing, tools etc). I was only given 2 options. I was to give them either a 5 star rating of excellent in every aspect or 4 star. I had to do this without actually having the item, but only with a photo of it. My final communication with her was that this needed to be reported as the scan that it is. I said it was as scam to the people you are trying to recruit to do the work & it is a scam to the people you are trying to trick into buying a product by giving it a 5 star rating when you have no way of knowing if it is. That was out last communication. She never responded to that. That was Friday, January 9, 2026. I refused to pay when she told me that was the next step, so I never lost any money. The scam is in posting false reviews of products to boost sales!
