The "Part-Time Job" Trap on WhatsApp

"Like YouTube videos and earn money." It sounds easy, but it ends with you losing lakhs.

The Message: "Hello, I am HR from [Big Company]. We have a part-time job for you. Earn ₹3000-₹8000 daily working from home."

This is called a Task Scam. It is currently one of the biggest financial frauds in India.

🚩 Red Flag: No legitimate company hires random people via WhatsApp to "like" videos or "rate" hotels for money.

Phase 1: The Bait

They actually pay you! You complete a small task (like subscribing to a YouTube channel) and they send you ₹150 or ₹200 via UPI.

This builds trust. You think, "It's real!"

Phase 2: The Trap

They add you to a Telegram group. Now, to get "higher paying tasks", you must "invest" money.

Eventually, they ask for a huge amount (e.g., ₹50,000). Once you pay, they block you.
