At first, they added me into a Whatsapp group and said to give reviews and earn Rs 50 for each review and after completing 3 reviews and added me to a Telegram group to ask the receptionist to pay Rs 150 by sharing the screenshots of the reviews.
I received the Rs 150 and then they said they are recruiting different IPs to assist in speculation of cryptocurrencies and after completing the task the merchant will share the revenue and profit.
They asked to deposit Rs 2000 and after following some steps in the task I will get Rs 2800. And I received Rs 2800.
There were a lot of screenshots of the money received and paid to different accounts with the present date and time of transactions in the Telegram channel which looked trustworthy.
The next day, they gave the Rs 150 for the review and then there was the sharing economy task and I was asked to deposit Rs 5000 and I will receive Rs 6500 after task completion. and once the task was completed, they said the merchant has given another task where the prepaid amount is Rs 38000 and once can’t leave the task in middle and there are 2 more tasks where the amount will be randomly selected by the system. I wasn’t able to withdraw the money and some people in the group paid the amount and hence I did the same as well.
The next task prepaid amount was Rs 98000 and then there will be a withdrawal task of Rs 6,28,000. I told them I can’t deposit anymore but they convinced me that I will withdraw Rs 11,47,500 after the task where my profit would be more than Rs 4 Lakh. People in the group paid and withdrawing money and sharing the screenshots of money received.
Since, I didn’t had any money left, I was stuck and couldn’t think of anything…Then they asked me to take instant cash loans to withdraw the money and pay back after withdrawal. I agreed to that and took instant loans and didn’t knew that the interest rates were so high but I did not had any other options left and took a loan of Rs 7 lakh and paid the money for withdrawal.
While withdrawing the system said declined and I couldn’t believe what was happening and they said since the amount is more than a million, you need to upgrade your account to VIP Level 2 and then you can withdraw. And to upgrade your account to VIP 2, you need to deposit Rs 13,25,000. They said the company will pay Rs 5 lakh and once I withdraw I need to pay the company back their 5 lakh.
And I still believed it as a lot of my money was stuck and I was a fool not to have understood that I was being scammed. I deposited Rs 13,25,000 but took some time to arrange the loan and asked some friends and relative to lend me some money.
And then when I deposited Rs 13,25,000 the amount showed Rs 30 lakh and I was asked to do the withdrawal but again the system declined saying my credit score is 98 and when asked they said since you took a long time for the withdrawal the system downgraded your score for the safety of your funds.
And Now they are asking to deposit Rs 8 lakh to upgrade the score to 100. These people are heartless and playing with human emotion’s and lives.
Please help me recover my money as I am in a huge amount of loan and don’t know what to do.
