"Earn by doing tasks" and fake online job scams
Commission for liking videos, writing reviews or "completing" orders: small payouts at first, then you must deposit your own money or USDT to unlock bigger "tasks".
Last reviewed: 15 October 2026
Red flags
- "Part-time job" offers from unknown numbers on WhatsApp or Telegram
- Unusually high pay for trivial work
- Deposits required for "prepaid tasks" or "combo orders"
- More money needed to release money that is stuck
How it works
A message arrives from an unknown number: "earn Tk 2,000–5,000 a day from home". At first you like a few videos and really do get some money. Then you are added to a Telegram group where "prepaid tasks" begin: deposit your own money or USDT for higher commissions. Soon a "mistake" or "combo order" appears and you are told to deposit more to release your funds. The cycle never ends.
What to do
- A real job never asks you to pay to start working.
- Other group "members" posting earnings screenshots are often part of the scam.
- Once your money is stuck, do not pay anything more to "recover" it.
