Scammers are sending job-related messages to people’s numbers. Such people who are looking for jobs are quickly falling in the trap of scammers. As soon as people talk about jobs, scammers say that they have to like YouTube videos and can earn up to Rs 5,000 a day. In the beginning, scammers are also transferring some money to their accounts to assure people. As soon as the person is sure that the work is right then they start taking it seriously and from here the real game starts.
After a few days, scammers tell people that there is a problem in payment transfer, so they should download an app so that the payment can be done. Through this app, scammers get important information of people and then from here they blow their money.
