[9/12/2024 12:01 PM] SCAMMER: Hello! I am Alexia, I heard from Leslie that you are looking for a job, do you have time to learn more about this position?

[9/12/2024 12:38 PM] -ME- : OK

[9/12/2024 12:41 PM] SCAMMER: Ok, thanks for your response. Let me explain the details of a job to you now. If you have any questions, you can ask me.

[9/12/2024 12:41 PM] -ME- : OK

[9/12/2024 12:44 PM] SCAMMER: Our company specializes in hotel bookings and offers various assessment roles. We have developed a work platform equipped with an advanced algorithm that enhances the visibility of hotel bookings we manage. This system helps generate real traffic and improve the ranking of hotels that have recently experienced higher occupancy rates.

[9/12/2024 12:55 PM] -ME- : OK

[9/12/2024 12:58 PM] SCAMMER: okay, now let me tell you what you need to do.

[9/12/2024 12:59 PM] -ME- : OK

[9/12/2024 1:03 PM] SCAMMER: In this position, you’ll need to complete two sets of tasks daily, each set consist with 40 hotel orders. The system will assign these orders to you, and all you need to do is click "Submit" to upload them. The system will then handle the rest by analyzing and processing the orders based on each user's unique network IP and process them accordingly.

[9/12/2024 1:44 PM] -ME- : So the job is just clicking [SUBMIT]?

[9/12/2024 1:47 PM] SCAMMER: Yes but it plays a crucial role in improving the visibility and ranking of hotel bookings. Your work helps ensure that the system can accurately process and analyze the data, which in turn supports better outcomes for the hotels we work with.

[9/12/2024 2:01 PM] -ME- : OK

[9/12/2024 2:06 PM] SCAMMER: Great, Now if you don’t have any other questions about the content of the position, then let me tell you about your job income and start training, ok?
[9/12/2024 2:08 PM] -ME- : OK

[9/12/2024 2:14 PM] SCAMMER: Your total income includes a basic salary plus commission. You earn commission by completing two sets of evaluation tasks each day. For each hotel order, you can earn between 0.25% to 1% commission. For example, if you evaluate orders worth $100, you could earn up to $20 in commission from completing two sets of tasks.

[9/12/2024 2:17 PM] SCAMMER: And the basic salary is calculated based on the number of consecutive working days after completing two sets of work. The salary structure is as follows:
3 days: $160
5 days: $500
15 days: $1,200
30 days: $3,300
In total, if you work continuously for 30 days, you would earn $5,160.

UPDATE: Tuesday, September 17, 2024, 2:53 PM EST - The scammer has not let up.  He/she just sent me this BS motivational message on WhatsAPP:

"Good afternoon! Remember, every small step you take today is a step closer to your bigger dreams. Keep moving forward!"

🤔: Perhaps this scammer just finished browsing a Tony Robbins book or something.  RIDICULOUS!  Like these words are going to make me more likely to fall for this scam. 100% CRAZY!

I'll probably be back with another update soon.  I have a feeling this person is not going to quit!  Stay tuned...
