I was also scammed in the same manner as my fellow victim, Kayode glory oluwasegun, but of a larger amount. I will start by describing how the business is played. It is like a sales task.
You will purchase items from the store with real cash, but the items will nt be sent to you. After you complete your purchase, your money will be refunded with commissions as your gain. They claim that the actions are to increase sales of product and at the same time, increase the visibility of products. They also claim to partner with Amazon, Alibaba, SNAPDEAL, MYNTRA and other e-commerce businesses. So, there seven VIP levels to it. The first two VIP levels (i.e, VIP 1&2) are considered as probation levels while the remaining, I guess the real business. I was scammed on VIP 3. VIP 3 comprised of 10 order task. I started with #20,000, after I made the first four orders, on the fifth one, I was asked to top up balance with #19,586.88, so I did. I was able to complete the 5th, 6th and 7th order. Again, on the 8th order, I was told to top with a bigger amount: #71,675.91 and I did. When I thought it was the last, just immediately after the 8th order, on the 9th order, I was told again to top up balance with #167,735.91, and that was the point I stopped. Then, it dawned on me that I have been scammed. As funny it may sound, I attempted to withdraw the money I had accumulated on my dashboard, but I couldn’t.
