Description

I was contacted by Zoe at Staffmark Staffing and Recruiting (619) 572-3598 who told me about a permission, I was then contacted by Irene (774) 557-4005, who explained the job was a dropship where I can make a commission off of ordered placed. The next day I signed in and was requested to transfer $11 to bring my account to $100 to start, which I did, I was told I made a commission of $60, the next day I did it again and paid the difference, and thought I made $200 commission, the next day I increased my level I made a $500 and made it making $700 and then it said I couldn't move forward I had to cover the difference. I transferred the amount when my total got to $1930.00 they locked me again and said I have to pay $1943.45 to unlock my account. I reached out and let them know and I kept being told I can only unlock my account and withdraw if I make the full deposit amount. I told them I will not and this is a pyramid scheme, I was then told if I do not pay that amount I lose my money and the merchant will sue me for the difference.
