How the victims got cheated

After contacting those who are interested in the ‘job’, they would be instructed to signup for various memberships of websites and mobile apps to perform some task which promises great rewards.

There syndicate offers a variety of membership levels, $10 for a low commission membership and few thousand for high commission membership.

Basically, it means: “You pay more for your membership you will earn more”
