Initially someone with a no.+201276137915 reached out me on What app for some part time job, saying her name is Shweta Rana from Kicstarter Ltd their company works with Youtube merchants who are willing to fund their visibility, i thought this is simple and started lining their Youtube pages, in sudden they asked me to join in their Telegram channel, i thought ok fine and joined in their telegram channel. They started giving me few tasks, now the task is to follow Instagram accounts, i thought that is also simple and started doing that, on 1st day they paid 350 rupees for this, in sudden they started asking to trade in the 2ns task with the amount of 1000, provided a link : https://cmyywkroz.buzz/#/, i thought 1000 should be fine and invested in sudden they asked to invest 7000and after 8000 and they told me that if you want your 16000 you have to invest more 20000 and I invest but I don’t get my amount back after they told me to invest more 80000 and you get 30 % more communication if you don’t invest so your money is gone so I also invest 80000 more and next day they told me to invest 200000 if you don’t invest your money is gone if not the whole amount will not be paid back. They are playing tricks with innocent people and cheating them, please help to stop this. Few Telegram accounts for your reference, the people who had contacted me, attached their ids here :

I also trapped in this situation I lost my 168000 rupees they told me invest again of 200000 to complete it. But still I don’t pay, please be careful
I also trapped but I paid upto 20k for getting this with commission they asking me to pay 65k to get all amount back saying that it is the last task. By seeing all your comments I am doubting and taking one step back. I have all the chat messages from them assuring that they will return if I pay 65k. I dont know What to do ?
Did you paid for the last task ?
Today I also got whatsapp msg from +261332118225 this number stating below
“I’m shreya sharma a recruiter from kickstarter Ltd. our company works with youtube merchants who are willing to fund their visibility, so we need to recruit a lot of co-employees to click likes and followers.
The job is very simple, all you need to do is like the youtube merchant and take a screenshot and send it to me,”
They have a group name Rainbow VIP,
In that they used to give 22 tasks per day. Most of those task was to give 5 star rating to the link which they provide. Few tasks are merchant task. In which they have a chart from 3000 to 150000, I initially deposited 3000 rs for a merchant task mission 1, then they will provide link to invest this 3k to BTC bitcoin and within 10 minutes that will show 30% commission. Then they will check if the order is closed. If closed they will say task appears 0 , other wise next order comes with deposit value. In which I got 20k further to pay. So I paid to end the tasks and shown with commission. I thought the task would end. But they did not say that will end. Then again the order extended to 65k. We were put in a seperate group of 5 members including me. Except me all paid 65k with screenshots and after then the task appeared 0 and all took their commission for their payment. I got stuck with no funds.
They still saying that it is the last task of the merchant order and get the commission. But I am in dilemma and thinking what to do. !!
I asked them to pay me in advance, to which they declined. Hahah! I just knew they are scammers. I just blocked their number
One of there fake number +27834225702.
I too got stuck in one of these tricks. Thank god I saw this post and read all the comments. I was just about to lose 1000 rs. But instead after reading this I tricked them by acting all innocent and ended up making 450/- rs. Profit instead. Thankyou guys.
This very fraud company. I also trapped.
