Scams
Online task scam
In Turkish: Online görev / iş dolandırıcılığı
An "easy job" such as liking videos or rating products pays a little at first, then asks you to top up an account to continue.
The offer arrives by message and promises good daily pay for simple tasks. A small first payout makes it feel real. Then you are told that better tasks need a deposit, and each deposit is never enough to unlock the money.
A real employer pays you for work; it does not ask you to pay in order to work. Unsolicited job offers on messaging apps are a common way these scams start.
What to do
- Do not deposit money into any "task account". A real job never asks you to pay first.
- Block and report the sender, and leave the group they added you to.
- Check unknown employers through official company channels, not through the chat.
