Description

I was given a job offer by a person claiming to be from theAPPsolutions company, which is an American Company (which I searched. Do not know if there are other companies named the same and there was no logo provided by the scammer). However, the number that is listed on my WhatsApp is +84 92 605 02 29. The '+84' is from Vietnam. I asked very basic questions, like name and job specifics. The person claimed their name was Nikki from Human Resources, but gave me no last name. "Nikki" could not give me specifics on the job. I was given a very vague description like "job is simple, non-technical, and no work experience required. This is an online job, no location, no time limit. etc." They claimed that you could make $100-$500 a day for just 1-2 hours of "work", and $5,000-$9,000 per month depending your role and whether you prefer part time or full time work. After asking over and over about job specifics, I was given this answer, "Our job is like shopping online. We usually see traders with high sales and high rankings. If there is a product, we will consider buying it first. As a result, some merchant apps do no have sales and rankings and users do not browse." "Nikki" really pushed for my age saying that the company requires you to be between the ages of 20 and 70. To get more information, I responded "I am between those ages," but Nikki wanted a specific number so I said 69. They then followed up by asking for my WhatsApp account number, which I have no idea what that means. Their response,.."Excuses me, Can I add you with the same number on WhatsApp?" This confused me. We were already talking on WhatsApp. So that means nikki isn't using WhatsApp? I got bored and didn't want to continue the conversation, but had I they would have someone else contact me.
