Shrimp skin e-commerce scam cheated 1 1 person.

The scam of fake e-commerce platform Shopee for job recruitment has caused quite a stir in Singapore. Since June 5438+February last year, this scam has defrauded at least 1 1 victims. Considering that in recent years, Shopee-related scams such as shop opening and training have occurred from time to time, the public has deeply questioned the supervision and platform responsibility of Shopee.

Regarding this job-hunting scam, the Singapore police said that this is a new variant of the job-hunting scam. Victims are exposed to these so-called job opportunities through messages pushed by friends or social media. After the victim takes the bait, he will be asked to download a fake application called "ShopeePay", saying that he can sell products through this program and earn a high commission.

However, before that, they need to buy a cryptocurrency as a deposit to get this opportunity to make money. Then, it was not until the account was frozen by monetary authority of singapore that the victim found that these so-called commissions could not be withdrawn at all, and he had lost all his money.

Although the police said that Shopee has confirmed that there is no application named "ShopeePay" on its platform, the company's e-wallet ShopeePay can only be used in its own application. However, there are still many people who believe that Shopee, an e-commerce platform, is suspected of unfavorable supervision and should bear some responsibility for this scam.
