Description
They start offering a part time remote job from home in an MMS message and then ask if you want more information they will send you a message in whatsup. Then in whatsup they send information about the job which they say is $100 to $300 a day. It is for a global application Slashdev. Then they give you the http url for the application and the person in the whatsup gives you a call and "train you the first day where he/she deposits $50 and start clicking on a button on the application that supposelly increases the count of the product offered and it gives more posiilites for that company (like coke or home depot or other) to go up in the google search position for that product, bu each click costs some money like cents or more depending on the money you deposited and at the end of the day they deposit into a crypto currency the money you made by pressing they application button. The trainig gives you $90 dollars but the next day you need to start with $100 and you make $200 the next day you need to deposit $500 and you end up with $900 and so on, the more you deposit the more a ck=lick gives you, almost dobling your money, but it never goes down so you calculate that when you deposit $5000 you will end up with $10000 but that id=s not true because that day you run into scenarios where the $5000 are all used and you are two or three steps before you finish the task and can collect the money, so if you want to collect you need to finish the task so you need to deposit $3 or $4 thousand more in order to continue, I deposited the $5000 to star and because they say I had to finish the task I had to deposit $3000 more and one more click and the cost went up and I had to deposit $5000 more but the task go stuck in that I had to have $16000 in order to finish it and if I do not deposit more I could not finish it and collect the gaining. Well I could not find any more money and they disappeared after three days of back and forth messages. When you start you are joined to a whatsup group that supposedly cheer for you and they do the same and make a lot of money they say. At the end they try to force you all of them, sayin that that is the real world that you have to keep depositing money that they had done the same. I finally lost it, I send all information I had to FBI and other agencies I found in the internet but nobody called me or did anything to help me, I am reporting this today here, because it happened again, I was approached by this lady, who I think is fake and offered me again the same kind of job, so I think they started to scam again.
