Description

A recruiter (Lynn Coates) sent me an invitation to potentially work with a new company that handles different aspects for crypto startups and has an initial offer for commissions based on consecutive days working for minimal periods and then upon completing each set of tasks per day once you get to five days you’re guaranteed $800 for example and them upon completion of 15 days of tasks you’ll receive say $2100. Of course the whole time you’re “working” all you’re doing is clicking on a taskbar and simply by clicking on the “next” button you’ll quickly get the taskbar to 100% to which you must enter your username and password and security information to clear the taskbar and allow for the next set of data entry requirements to be added to the pool of available data sets to be used to complete your next task set. I was even directed to use a specific “training coach who was my contact and consultant for every training session and directed my needs to fulfill the requirements and continue to follow the process of building up my personal profile. My coach was “Amily” probably because they misunderstood the commonly used name, Emily due to the lack of understanding with the language barrier. All communication was done through WhatsApp. Which made them look legitimate as well because WhatsApp designated them as “accredited partners” Or “Verified Business Partners” which I was able to get associated with my profile just by declaring that in my profile bio. No verification needed to be “verified”as a business entity in the crypto space.
