Task-Based Scams: From Small Earnings to Big Losses

 

Task-based scams are among the most dangerous financial traps today. Victims start by earning small amounts (₹100-500), but eventually lose ₹50,000 to ₹5 lakh or more in fake investments, upgrades, or "processing fees."

This blog reveals how these scams work, real victim stories, and how to avoid them.


๐Ÿ” How Do Task-Based Scams Work?

Stage 1: The Bait (Small Earnings to Build Trust)

  • Scammers post ads like:

    • *"Earn ₹500/day by liking YouTube videos!"*

    • "Part-time data entry jobs, no experience needed!"

  • Victims join Telegram/WhatsApp groups and complete simple tasks (liking videos, filling forms).

  • They receive small payments (₹50-200) to gain trust.

Stage 2: The Hook (Pressure to "Upgrade")

Stage 3: The Trap (Money Vanishes)

  • The scammer blocks the victim or demands more money for:

    • "Taxes"

    • "Verification fees"

    • "Account activation"

  • The Telegram group disappears, and all money is lost.
