Hi, i would like to request for information on how to report scams using Whatsapp & Viber apps for doing Lazada Tasks to gain commission. I have sent GCash payments to the Lazada merchants and i was told by the Task Admin that the payment will be refunded to me plus 40% commission. The Task Admin in Whatsapp said that there were system errors and that i need to completed additional tasks. I have made 4 payments all in all, and there was no refund given, even if i told the Task Admin that i just needed the refund of all my payments, and no longer need the 40% commission. Pls help stop scams.
