How many people have been cheated by shrimp e-commerce scam?

The e-commerce scam of shrimp skin cheated 11 people.

The job recruitment scam by imitating the e-commerce platform Shopee has caused quite a stir in Singapore. Since December last year, the scam has defrauded at least 11 victims. Considering that scams related to Shopee, such as opening stores and training, have occurred from time to time in recent years, the public has deeply questioned Shopee's supervision and platform responsibility.

Regarding this job-hunting scam, the Singapore police said that it is a new variant of the job 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 cashed out at all, and he had lost all his money.

The e-commerce of shrimp skin has been investigated:

Although the police said that Shopee has confirmed that its platform does not have an application called "ShopeePay", the company's e-wallet ShopeePay can only be used in its own application. However, many people still believe that Shopee, an e-commerce platform, is suspected of unfavorable supervision and should bear certain responsibilities for this scam.
