I too joined this company saying they do flagship for Amazon through aliexpress. Their name being seashells1 (https://www.seashells1.com) Got this link through TikTok
Send me a link ,training on how to shop and pay with my own money for items.
I was making money and able to withdraw small amount 2 to3 hundred Rand.
There are 5 tasks with 8 units in each task. First lot of tasks were low so I made some money. The following day I decided to do the second task that too was low amounts I then ask my manager for another ot of tasks, The started off low but by the time I got to the 5th task, 7th unit It was R8900. But I had to finish my work so I deposited 10K into the private account of individuals. Which I did. The very next task jump up to R36666.65 I felt the blood drain from my face and felt nauseated. But I wanted to finish my task so I borrowed 38K from my brother to complete the task. I sent screen shots after every transaction to my manager. She the proceeded to tell me that before I could withdraw my funds that I have to pay tax. “Paying taxes is the duty and responsiblity of every citizen” she said. Which I duly did.
I sent my manager screenshots of the transaction, and she told me that I could draw the money out in 2 hours. 4 hours later my monies still didn’t reflect in my bank account. I checked my account later and I got a screen pop up saying that “withdraw name is inconsistant, suspect of theft by others, in order to ensure the safety of your property, the account has been frozen, please withdraw after unfreezing”. I have to pay 10% of the total amount . I contacted my manager and she told me my account name and banking detail were not the same.
I used my pension and sold my motorcycle to make upthose amounts.
I would like to get what I put in out, I don’t care about the larger amount (even though it looks good and it would come in handy).
Lets hope other ppl will read my story and prevent the same mistake as I made. Lesson learn.

I’m left with two tasks to complete and I had ran out of cash .
Me too I wish I can just complete and get my money .
Don’t even attempt to complete as you won’t get ur money it’s always the after the thing whereby more and more money needs to he deposited stay away as u will loose every cent u put in
Has anyone tried to court complain and did anyone get anything back?
Almost stepped into the seashells1.com trap myself. If it wasn’t for the complaint of Tee Jay and others, I would surely have been duped by these scammers. After telling them the seashells site is down, they sent me a different link to log in https://www.azerbaijan9.com/#. Been receiving WhatsApp messages from different numbers each day following up on progress with funding my account. Blocked and reported all of them. Best of luck guys in retrieving your funds. I’ve been there before and know the feeling. They prey on desperation!!!
hi
the same thing happen to me is there a way we can get our money back
If only we knew their offices it would have been better. I’m also facing the same thing of being scammed
I am also facing the same thing guys.. Right now I am desperate to make money and pay the people I borrowed knew from as I am unemployed and was trying to make some money.
Is there anything we can do
I’m also on that same sh*t, more expensive task requires more money to be deposited every now and then. They blocked 🚫 me
Yho guys i just borrowed a money to deposit i don’t think i will. I already used all money i had in my bank account
I lost 300k guys, we need to deal with these scammers,nobody ever get their money back or earnings
This happend to me 2.i put R32 000…I need to pay my taxes according to them..then I cab withdraw..but I read someone paid their taxes BUT STILL COULDNT WITHDRAW
Same happened to me!! Lost a huge amount of money!
I also lost 17K spoke to Everly Suarez,(which i know now its not the real name) they blocked me. Can we trace the people we paid the money too? i used al my funds hoping to get the commission. So Sad.
Their contact numbers was 079 9282665; 071 552 9876 & 060 766 3878
Hi guys I also have problem with seashells i left with 2 task that I didn’t finished I asked them to take their profits and give me my money back they said is not possible,I have to finish my task first (I want my money back)
Is there someone who knows how we can track those account we deposited to so that we can get those people.
If so I’d like to know
