Scam Description
From a discussion thread at the Media Matters for America website:
“I’ve made ??$64,000?? so far this year working online and I’m a full time student. Im using an online business opportunity I heard about and I’ve made such great money. It’s really user friendly and I’m just so happy that I found out about it. Heres what I do.:) AND GOOD LUCK.:)HERE====)> ????????????????.??????”
Which should raise questions galore, especially with regards to whether the poster (who signed “jennifer415”) is actually a paid “singer” for the company in question … whether the earnings claims can be considered typical among participants … and whether such may actually be exploiting vulnerable and otherwise unemployable persons in the post-pandemic socioeconomic climate, especially so in lower-income and economically-challenged communities and among sich as cannot otherwise find work in the community.
