Side job 'product tester' — tasks first, then a deposit

A WhatsApp offer promises €200 a day for simple tasks. Small payouts really arrive. Then you must 'unlock tasks' and deposit your own money, which never comes back. Some victims are also used as money mules.

Warning signs

Hired with no interview, offer via WhatsApp
You must deposit your own money to earn
Payments are routed through your private account

What to do

Stop immediately. If other people's money passed through your account, tell your bank and report it yourself — otherwise you may be investigated.
