PREPAID TASK SCHEME/SCAM ON TELEGRAM

Good day!

I would like to report a scheme/scam. I recently got a message from a random contact in Telegram if I can join their group to earn money and I knew it was a scam. I joined so that I can screenshot and report it to you. Firstly, you complete a task and they will send links for you do. You will simply follow/like the pages and then send proof to their so called “receptionist” and once you completed, they will send you money via gcash or bank transfer. After that, they will send a message that if you want to continue you have to pay for this kind of amount.

Good day!

This is Danielle La Torre, and would like to report a scheme/scam. I recently got a message from a random contact in Telegram if I can join their group to earn money and I knew it was a scam. I joined so that I can screenshot and report it to you. Firstly, you complete a task and they will send links for you do. You will simply follow/like the pages and then send proof to their so called “receptionist” and once you completed, they will send you money via gcash or bank transfer. After that, they will send a message that if you want to continue you have to pay for this kind of amount. (Please see attached for your reference and records).

I lost 3,000 pesos for this and hopefully I can refund it via gcash but have to report to you for further action. I hope you can help me with this kind of scams cause this is very alarming.

Let me know if you have any questions or infos that you need to know that I can help you with.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you!


Best,
Danielle
