Amazon Online Mall Task Platform — I was deceived and scammed

Website:jumia789.xyz

I saw a Facebook advert on 1st April 2022 for an online work from home part-time job. I contacted the company through the phone number on the advert.
It was a WhatsApp chat. She said she was Natasha, my part-time receptionist. She further explained that my work was to help online stores like Amazon, konga, jumia and the likes to increase sales by taking orders and in return, get a refund of my capital and a 20% commission.
She said I will need to choose a package to start with and make a deposit to the account details that will be provided on the site.
I started with the lowest package and deposited one thousand (1, 000) naira. I completed my tasks and applied for withdrawal but she said the financial department was under maintenance and it would take up to 48hours.
She advised I continue working till the maintenance was over. She said since I already have two thousand naira there, I can deposit five hundred (500) naira to make up to the two thousand, five hundred naira required for the next stage but I told her I wanted to confirm that it's really paying first before I can continue working.
After some days, I was able to withdraw one thousand, nine hundred naira because one hundred naira was deducted as their charge.
She asked for the next package I was going to pay for but I told her my fears, I told her I was having double mind as there are lots of scams online but her reply made me change my mind, she said, “okay, I won't force you, let's just say you lost a good job opportunity ”
I finally decided to continue. I made payment for the two thousand, five hundred naira package. She confirmed it and also told me she has applied for a senior tutor for me who will guide me through the next tasks and take me to earn more commissions. She sent me the telegram link of the senior tutor; https://t.me/Gbemisola125. This was on April 13.
I chatted Gbemisola125 on telegram and she told me she has requested for tasks for me, 8tasks in total.
She said they were high paying commission tasks and it can't be cancelled or abandoned halfway, and that if there's a difference in the price of goods I'll need to make up the money by recharging my account. I started but got stuck halfway because of fund, I chatted her but she said there's nothing she can do, I just have to make up the money. I managed to make it up with the help of a friend. I recharged six thousand naira. After two more tasks, the request came again to recharge fifteen thousand naira. I chatted her and she said I should recharge that it's the company's rule and cannot be changed. She assured me my money was safe with them. She sent me their authorization certificate from Amazon and screenshots of withdrawal records of other workers, this gave me confidence to continue. I again, recharged the fifteen thousand naira and continued. After two tasks again, the need to recharge again came, this time, it was thirty three thousand naira.
This was already on the 14th as I couldn't complete it on the 13th due to fund.
I was still trying to find a means to get the thirty three thousand naira before she told me the platform's recharge system was undergoing a temporary maintenance and so I should wait till it was over before I complete my tasks. By now, I've completed six tasks, had just two tasks left. And I can't withdraw till the 8 tasks are completed.
I held on, waiting for the maintenance to be over but I never heard from her again, she has been offline since then.
I tried reaching the one that referred Mr to her but she too has been offline as well.
On 23rd April, I logged in to the site only to find out all the money I had there was gone, my account was reset, all records were cleared. My account now looks exactly as it was when I first registered, with just my registration bonus of three hundred and forty naira.

Thank goodness, I have screenshots of my account before and after the reset.

This is the two WhatsApp numbers they used to chat me

I'm also a victim to these guys, only my case is a bit different. On 13th of April I stopped doing the tasks when I was told to deposit fifteen thousand naira, I couldn't deposit because I didn't have money to continue, Gbemisola (the telegram instructor) said there was nothing she could do to help and even said I should borrow from my friends and when I withdraw I would pay them back, honestly I contemplated it but then I realized I had played the fool long enough. About a week after, their site(https://www.hew8896.com/) was inaccessible and Gbemisola was also unreachable on telegram. I decided to text again on the 27th of April, there was no reply, today being June 19th, she replied the texts and asked me to pay N5, 000 for liquidated damages, I've been texting her for a while now because I'm determined t retrieve the money that they scammed me of. I'll attach screenshots of the chats and the account number of the person I was told to send the money to. If there's anyone who can help, please do because these people will just continue defrauding others. I understand there isn't am easy method to make money, I honestly thought it was a legit platform because they were registered under Amazon and Amazon is a household brand even here in Africa.

I used the AMAZON MALL TASK PLATFORM to start with 3000 and eventually 60000. They were requesting a 90, 000 commission before releasing the $13, 000 USDT that I intended to withdraw. The withdrawal has already been done, but it hasn't arrived in my account yet. I had to ask Rykabalan (https://t.me/Rykabalan) for assistance in order to get my money back because that was the money that was saving my life. They also advise me on which reputable company to invest with for good returns.

I have the same situation but the thing is I stop between 3000. Which demand me to recharge another 2, 700.. Is it possible for us to get our money back???? It's a scam..
I was scammed by an identical "Amazon" platform supposedly based in Hong Kong. I had my suspicions about it from the very start and took screenshots of everything. Firstly I have since established that Amazon, or indeed any large e-commerce site like eBay or Lazada etc. do not approve of this kind of artificial increasing of sales and thus internet rankings. There are other unethical scams such as brushing that do the same. My recharging levels were higher so I ended up losing about $6, 000. There were constant obstacles to block any withdrawals, commonly suddenly increasing the value of orders that were supposed to be matched to my available balance. Then "customer service" would offer to "compensate" some of the value and expect me to recharge the rest. I was enticed onto the platform by a woman claiming to be a successful businesswoman working for Amazon who had also made a lot of money on the platform. On one occasion she offered to recharge for me to clear the order and then subsequently when I tried to withdraw some money I was informed by customer service that the system had detected a third party payment and I was required to recharge an amount one third of the value of my available balance to verify my account. And they also required me to pay 15% tax before I could make any withdrawals. The obstacles just went on and on. I was hoodwinked by the businesswoman and once my eyes were fully open I was able to tell the scammers, her and "customer service", all the obvious mistakes and telltale signs of a scam such as no Terms and Conditions presented when signing up and they kept on telling me that I had to abide by the company regulations...and claiming to be Amazon, the largest e-commerce site in the world. And supposedly as a legitimate Amazon customer service they never addressed me by my first name or gave their first name, which is standard procedure with any online customer service now. They were able to change my password for me...who has ever heard of that? No additional logging in verification steps such as a one time password even though they kept on referring to maintaining high levels of security and protecting the accounts of all members of the platform. I feel stupid for being led as far as I went but at the back of my mind I knew that I was gambling but decided to see it through so that I could get 100% confirmation that these "Amazon" tasking platforms are all scams so that I could dedicate myself to publicising this type of scam because there is very little searchable reference to them online; in fact mostly just complaints like this one but never mentioned in lists of Amazon scams. I am now aware of 3 countries where this scam is occurring: India, the Philippines and Hong Kong. I traced the site in the Philippines from complaints like this one but the site has since been taken down. The Hong Kong scamming site that scammed me is still up - https://amazonus.vip/index/user/login.html
Dear Sir,
I was introduced to this platform through an add through Instagram and WhatsApp message for part time job. First they made me add Rs.200 to their account and successfully transfered back Rs.450. Then they made me recharge and amount of 1000 and again 100 and after task completion transfered 1500 successfully to my account. After this started the fraud practice. They alloted me similarly a 6 task and asked me to recharge by starting with Rs.500 and then it increased till it reached Rs.1, 30, 000. Now they tell me its freezer and I have to pay again 63, 000 to unfreeze it.
Please help me to get my money back. I had to lend the money from friends and family to complete thinking it will be refunded.
They have contacted me from the phone number
