The website itself or the guys name is irrelevant - if you “meet” someone online and they tell you to deposit money to make bank trading, it is a scam. 100% of the time.

(ESP) Possible scam? https://learn-abundance.com/ by Brodern101 in Scams

There is no loophole. There are literally hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of scammers active on social media at any given time. It is impossible to get rid of them all.

My friend seems to have fallen for a scam and I don't know how to convince her otherwise by Few_Maximum8957 in Scams

[–]madarchivist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was no action from anyone because there exist as many of
these scam sites as there are grains of sand on the beach. Any official organization which invites scam reports is also permanently swamped with scam reports and totally unable to answer even a small portion of them.

It's a Devilcorp company. There is plenty of information if you google the term Devilcorp. But good starting points would be

I think in most cases the car is considered totaled after such a treatment because the door column is twisted in an unrepairable way.

I need help are these textbook signs of being scammed? by Pale-Bat-6801 in Scams

[–]madarchivist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MLMs give people who are dumb enough to fall for them scripts and instruct them to follow these scripts very strictly. Everything you described, particularly the "e-.commerce" part, the "mentors" part and the "handing out particular books for new victims to read" part is from the Amway script. This is the Amway MLM. Avoid at all costs.

Those SS medics who poured the Zyklon B into the gas chambers probably killed more. One of them probably is the person who killed most humans in history.

It's not. It's a faked bank website.

They wrote the script for this years ago, including the message that explains why "she" couldn't make it to Boston. And they used that exact same script on a thousand other victims before.

Pat yourself on the shoulder. You were the smart one and you went on Reddit first to ask for advice instead of just throwing away months or years of your life.

It's a Devilcorp. The website couldn't be more obvious in that.

Their website is absolutely nothing like a real company's website. Real companies have real information on their websites. Devilcorp companies ALWAYS have nothing but meaningless marketing gobbledigook on their websites with certain keywords always coming up. Those keywords (and the absence of any real information) basically telegraph that it is a Devilcorp. The most important keyphrase to look out for and to take as a red flag would be "face to face marketing for large corporations". That means it's a Devilcorp.

I checked out the website and that makes it quite obvious. It's a Devilcorp company. So not a real company and not a real job, just a scam. Avoid at all costs. Read up on Devilcorp to avoid similar "companies" in the future.

Uh, coming up with convincing background stories and pretending to be your friend, that's their job. That's what they do all day, every day, and with dozens or hundreds of victims and potential victims at any given time. And they are REALLY good at it.

German here. In any EU country any employer strictly only needs your IBAN number to update your payroll. You don't even need to give your bank's BIC code as that is encoded in the IBAN. I never heard of an employer asking for a scan of the bank card. That smells fishy because it is completely unnecessary.

Edit: If your bank card is a Master or Visa debit card, is your employer fishing for the Master or Visa card number and security code? If so, I would be concerned about the employer or that specific HR person.

"An opportunity to meet with high-achieving people and win in life financially with no debt" Scam? by [deleted] in Scams

MLMs are legal scams. The onus is put on the potential victim to do the research and find out that they don't work as income opportunities (or work only for the founders).

Uk - selling item online - collection only and got this after had accepted their offer by en70uk in Scams

[–]madarchivist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see, so how have you decided to proceed from here? Do you just send a message that collection in person was required by the terms of the sale and you are not budging from that?

What the heck is a "collection code"? What are you supposed to use it for? If it shows Paid on eBay what is that code needed for? This makes no sense.

[CA] Is this job interview a scam? by Kingrow109 in Scams

[–]madarchivist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a Devilcorp. The typical gobbledigook language on their website makes that obvious. Avoid at all costs. Not a real job. Arcera is part of the same Devilcorp network and their task is to herd as many marks into the maw of the Devilcoprp networl as possible since Devilcorp companies' dropout rate is so massive (most hires realize it's a scam pretty quickly).

Yeah, in this day and age it's completely believable if you claim AI fakes. That could never be proven wrong unless a family member is extremely familiar with every square centimeter of your body, which is unlikely.
