I feel like an idiot.
Finally got caught by a scam
Contacted to say there was away to make 200-300 GBP a day
They say they submit orders for users to increase app rankings
I was initially shown a demo of how easy it was and given $100 for training,
I then tried myself login and on 'submit' then literally click submit 40 times on various orders.
I did this a few times and made $20 for doing it.
I got greedy and increase my initial deposit.
Now because my deposit has increased I get 'super' orders which take more of my money and because I don't have enough funds I have to top up.
I've now got $5k USD locked up and for my last task I need to top up $17k usdc and then can withdraw again.
Can't believe I fell for this

It's still active, is there anything I can do to them?
Currently have the mobile no. of the person that got me involved in this. He is playing dumb saying this extreme order amount has never happened to him. And their 'customer' support say this is the final top up...
I won't get caught investing anymore, what an expensive lesson to learn. FUCK
Sadly quite a common scam.
Was this CC, Wire or crypto?

I'm so pissed off, I thought I was a wise dude. And saw I gained money doing this initially.
Spent ages googling prior and hadn't seen this type of scam.
All sent usdc via wallets
My question now is can anything be done to this website?

Do not deposit money into that thing in hopes of being able to withdraw those funds
Sounds like they are just trying to size up the amount they can take from you
Classic Pyramid Scheme scam.
Whatever you do, don't deposit more to be able to withdraw because you won't see those money anymore.

Yeah they always say "this is the final top up" or something similar.
Don't fall for that.
They might have a special url for you. Doesn't work for me.
I tried to trick a scam like that once with dev tools, altering all my tasks. I kept getting the one where you 'review amazon products'.
They knew i was lying and I stopped getting the scam attempts all together.
Kinda miss messing with them.
Don’t feel bad, millions of people actually pay companies for health and car insurance every month….and don’t get me started on the ones that vote.

Both are kind of necessary are they not?
I mean with car insurance if you damage someone's Lamborghini and the cost to repair is $100k and you personally don't have the funds that's what insurance covers you for.
Same with health insurance, if you've got a mortgage and you die or are so unwell you can't work your insurance pay out so you don't lose your house?
I'm interested in what your view of the insurance is?
@OP
I think you've just gotta take this as an expensive learning curve, report it to the authorities and move on I think is the only way forward.

I haven't had health insurance my whole life and im almost 40 and im fine. Think about it this way, you pay into something your whole life that you may never use, you dont get anything back from it like an investment for instance AND when you do use it you STILL have to pay out of pocket, and to make it even worse once you meet your deductible they more then likely will DENY you certain operations, procedures, etc. Exercise and a good diet is the best health insurance you need. And don't get me started on the pharmaceutical side of it, its one big racket.
As far as car insurance goes, the only thing someone can do is sue in civil court if i hit someone without insurance. Im already to poor to afford insurance what are you going to take from me 🤣 it also works the same way as you still are paying out of pocket at the time of the claim, Yet your not getting anything back from it. And yea sure ill prob get a $300 ticket for no insurance...easy to fake in court all day long. Pay a $10 court cost and im on my way.
All insurance is a scam perpetrated in part by the federal government so they can get more tax money out of your pockets. First, They tax the companies, second, they tax you when you pay every month, that's 2 more times they make money out of your own paycheck, which obviously is already taxed!!! Why do you think they made it a "law". Its def not to protect the citizens they claim to care about so much.
Anyways i could go on....

I think insurance works different in the states to the UK where I live.
It's a legal requirement to have car insurance otherwise they'll instantly impound your vehicle.
It's also the same with health insurance, we obviously have "free" health care with the NHS. But to buy a house you need private health insurance otherwise the bank won't give you a mortgage.
I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel upset and frustrated. Scams are designed to be convincing, and it's easy to fall for them. Don't blame yourself too much, but it's good that you've learned from this experience.

Na its just a ticket in most states and your on your way. That is insane they wont give you a home loan. That, is tyranny. What does that even have to do with financing a home?
