Description

Today on January 31st 2024 I applied for a remote job on a website called ecom-appdev.com, shortly after I recieved a text message on the mobile app WhatsApp by a lady named Jessica saying that she was the recruitment manager, she then asked for some info about me and if I had a local bank account, after that she then offered me 2 different online jobs the first one was assisting online merchant/ e-commerce to improve their brand reputation and product sales and the other one was assisting app developer on promoting app to get a steady stream of downloads and users, she said the salary would be $100 to $300 per day and $3000 per month for full time. I said I was interested in assisting the apps developer job so then a few hours later I was then contacted by the person in charge her name is Isabella she then told me about the company called TOXSL and said that it covers a wide range of business areas including software development, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and gaming and entertainment.TOXSL's research and development center is dedicated to providing innovative technology products and solutions to the world. TOXSL has worked with Flutter, React IS, django, NGULARJS, Kotlin, OpenCV to help major software vendors improve their apps with low user numbers and ratings on the Appstore/Playstore to improve their apps' data reviews. She then sent me a link to this website www.toxslcanada.com and an invitation code to sign up and register for a work account after that I had to sign into a training account with a phone number she sent me 7501311882, I was then supposed to complete 30 tasks and when I got to task 7 there was insufficient balance in the account to complete the 30 task so then she said that it was a bundle and said "Normally, we get 1.5% commission, but if we get the "bundle" we get triple that, 4.5%! This is a "BUNDLE" with higher commissions than regular orders! We get x3 times the commission! This is the system that randomly assigns orders for a bundle that may have 0-4 apps, and for each app we get x3 commission. The current balance is negative because the quantity and unit price of the "bundles" are higher than usual orders, so we don't have enough to cover them." She then asked me to do this "Can you find me the customer service here and say I want to deposit money to account: 7501311882 and they will give you the developer's wallet and then you send me the wallet and I will deposit the money myself." She then sent 391 of the cryptocurrency USDT to the training account so I could continue completing the tasks, this then happened again on task 24 she then said "Oh, this is getting another bundle, lucky you, so we'll get even more commissions" so then she sent 112 more USDT so that I would be able to finish the tasks in the training account. I then finished the 30 tasks and she then transferred and gave me 25% of the commission from the training account to my work account it was 57 USDT equivalent to 57 USD. She then told me to switch on to my work account and complete the 30 tasks and that then I would be able to with draw the amount in the account, as I was doing the tasks before I could complete the 30 it said insufficient balance so I then sent 35 USDT which is $50.51 CAD from my Coinbase wallet to the address that the customer support on the chat sent me, after I completed the 30 task I tried to withdraw the 113 USDT like she said I would be able to then the customer support said "Dear, since you are a new agent so you have to complete at least two sets of tasks before you can apply for withdrawal" they then reset my 30 tasks for the day so I then tried it again because I already had put $50.51 CAD of my own money into this so I then attempted to complete the 30 tasks again and as I was doing it the insufficient balance happened again so this time I had to send 125 USDT which is $170.25 cad to be able to complete this second set of 30 tasks and withdraw my money and earnings so far so I sent it again to my work account and this the Etherum address customer support had told me to send it to Address of Erc20 Deposit address : 0x5d3a501feCafAf24d99ae4DC04f0D5F4f5205161 after it was recieved they updated my work account and let me complete a few more sks but then again before getting to complete the 30 task it happened again and this time it was even more to be bale to complete the second set of 30 tasks it was requiring me to send 341 more USDT which is $460 CAD so this is where I stopped because it seems like an endless cycle. Also they have a group chat for the workers with 20 fake accounts in it on WhatsApp so it made it even more convincing to me and believeable with how they were all chatting and talking/texting in the group chat making it sound more legit. In total I've lost $220.73 because of this scam , I hope there is a way for me to get my money back
