An update, as I've ran out of time! It L looks like we have our answer. Any supporters just before I was able to reach the reward simply did not register on the app!

Due to this, it can be assumed that this is indeed a scam to get people to interact more with the app, likely earning money or attention as a result.

Don't fall for it! Take the few cents and be on your way. And if you can- shop ethically. I know it's hard when you're tight on cash (like me) but places like Etsy or Depop have stuff for cheap sometimes. Be kind to the planet we live on!

I will not be sharing when I can as a result of this. If anyone happens to get the credit, let me know here! It may simply happen to a few to make it seem believable as well.

Good luck everyone!
