Below is chat copied contacted by "Marcia" @ Manpower Recruitment in USA regarding an online digital task optimization position. You'll see the details of the job. All of this was via cryptocurrency - you would purchase crypto via online via crypto.com, strike.com, coinhub.com, and others.
Long story short - You start each day with $101 in your account (all via cryptocurrency) and as you complete 40 task you earn commission and then withdraw the funds from your account.
On day 3, the trainer "Hannah" via whatsapp encouraged that I deposit more $$$ to earn larger commissions. This is when it got really heavy. As I was optimizing the task, my $1500 deposit became negative -60k+ and Hannah kept saying if you complete these task you'll earn a lot of money - 8x the amount. Like a dummy, I got caught up in the scam and deposited funds over and over. Each time I met the negative and proceeded to next task the negative would increase even larger. I borrowed money, took out loans, etc to pay the negative balance in hopes of regaining my money plus a generous gain.
Eventually I got to a positive balance, however I was told that because it took me so long that my "credit score" on the work platform had dropped below 100, so I had to deposit more money to get my credit score up.
At this point I was so anxious and fighting anyway possible to recoup my money. I followed along, each time. I was told now that I had such a large amount of money in the platform I had to upgrade to VIP2 which to do that I had to deposit more money. Then when I finally got to the point of withdrawing money (5 weeks later) I was told my funds were frozen. Then was instructed to pay 10% of proceeds to unfreeze my funds - paid that amount and went to withdraw and told my funds were frozen again. Then instructed to pay another 10% - Finally my husband stepped in and stopped me. Previously my husband was not aware of this scam as I hid it from him as I knew he would be so furious. I was trying to recoup my money to keep my husband from finding out. Now the platform said I have to deposti 10% more to have them transfer the funds VIA WISE -
Lots of details are not included in this, however I have screenshots of every conversation (via whatsapp with multiple players within this platform). Also screenshots of every transacation with to and from addresses and hash numbers.
