I came across an Eatigo job opportunity through WhatsApp and was asked to "like" a restaurant through the web/app. After liking the post, I received a small commission of SGD $15. Subsequently, they asked me to complete a special task to increase my commission from $15 to $20, but I had to transfer money to the "merchant." Ultimately, I was scammed out of close to $2.8k.

I've heard that this is a relatively new job scam out there, so please be careful.

Below are examples of the text:

Group projects (2-3 orders)
A friendly reminder from merchants: As per the requirements of the Eatigo app, we are recruiting members from different countries to assist major hotel companies with reservations. Limited spots available!
