Description

Domain similarweb-global.com posed as a legitimate work-from-home job opportunity. They offered a position as an optimizer with daily tasks, claiming each completed task would yield an average profit of $30 per day. The job required completing 40 clicks to rate a website, with two sets of 40 clicks each day. How the Scam Works: Initial Setup: Each task requires a balance of $100 to complete. They entice you with a $100 bonus to continue completing tasks. Ongoing Requirements: You must have $100 in your balance to start any task. Without it, your tasks are suspended. Their algorithm introduces a "luck order" that incurs costs exceeding $100, halting all work until you deposit the negative amount. False Promises: They promise a $500 salary after five consecutive working days. This scam manipulates you into continually depositing money under the guise of completing tasks and earning a salary. If you encounter similar schemes, avoid them and report the scam to relevant authorities to prevent others from becoming victims.
