Scam Description
I was offered an online job that was high paying job and flexible working hour just like the job I was looking for the moment. As soon as I joined the platform In my first day they added some money to my work account which was required to do app optimization. On my first day I earned about 76 dollar in just couple of minutes, may be within 10-15 minutes of app optimization. 2nd day I earned about 100 dollar. Both this amount I was capable to withdraw the money. The next day they said I have to add my own money to do the task and all these money are refundable with high commission after completion of task. As I was able to withdraw my previous income I trusted that I will get back my money as well, so I continued. First I had to add 100 dollar and then account started to receive more and more negative balance and I was never able to withdraw money rather it asked me to deposit more and more money saying that I will get back everything soon after completion of task. After loosing my all deposit and even my credit card balance I finally realized I was being scammed but the scammers targeted me for more and more money. After that I came to know that a lot of people were scammed just like me.
