Job Scam
i was introduced to this friend by my mother's friend for a job – the number (+60
1112198241) whereby one can earn commission by helping the seller to purchase order using a system that is auto generated and will match it according to the money that is deposited.

To summarize – we are being issued orders within one click and will be intelligently matched orders and be earning non-stop commission.

So firstly, had deposited SGD $300 into the account and we were instructed to paynow 98527515 and send a screenshot to the “Customer service” +65 85738125 and we will then receive an instruction to go into the app “Club Factory” and go to top up and then put in the amount that we had paynow to the person and include the screenshot in the app.

So everything seemed fine when I had received 2 orders amounting to $899 which is insufficient as I had only topped up $300. Hence, I was told that the consecutive orders which are the 2 orders have to be completed in order to proceed and I had to top up $900 to complete the order and the money will be back into the system account and I can continue to proceed.

To my surprise , I got a double order again and this time it amounts to $1099 and I had to top up another $1100 and I had to transfer to UOB 37039291?? REN ZENGSHA?? as I have to message the “Customer service” to get the account to transfer to always before sending the money.

After the money was in the account, I continued and to my horror, 3 orders in a row came in together and amounting up to $1997 and this time round I had to top up $2000 and I was assured that having multiple orders is normal and the max is 3 orders. The orders started to get more and more expensive, and the person kept rushing me to find money to complete orders as there is a time limit to it.

After which I requested for a refund/ withdraw and I want my money back total $2300 and the “Customer service” said it was unable to proceed with my request and couldn’t get back my money. After repeated request to withdraw, she said that she need to communicate with the seller and need to apply for me and keep making excuses till the point that I mentioned that I will be going to the police, she threatened me that if the company have any losses / damages I have to take responsibility as they will hire lawyers to sue me and the platform will fully cooperate with the police investigations as all transactions are being recorded down and there is an SOP that they are following.
