That is not sophisticated, as 7 news says. You have to be brain dead to fall for that.

This is not elaborate at all. Instead, she’s massively stupid. The news story should be “Very stupid adult fails to maintain control of life assets and instead donates them to strangers online.”

I’m sorry this woman lost her money but writing fake reviews for hotels ( for a fake business) is on the nose.

She was happy to write fake reviews, but is shattered to discover it’s not a legit business? Idiot.

The most damming aspect of this is that she was prepared to write fake reviews for hotels.

A good 50% + of scams are on people being greedy and diving into ‘too good to be true’ money making schemes.

That was the quickest I’ve ever lost sympathy for someone in my entire life.
“I want money for my big party. I know! I’ll write fake reviews that people will book their real holidays based on, because it’s all about ME and MY big day!”
The gofundme: “I was involved in an online investment scam where they stated I could make an online income which isn’t necessarily an unusual way of making money these days”
Wow, she sure spun that to her advantage. I guess “I wanted to scam people but not get scammed myself” doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Shame she chose to gamble her wedding fund away. Perhaps it should have been used for the wedding plans….

The term Sucked In doesn’t get used enough these days. What was she expecting? And to have the audacity to start her on scam by starting a gofundme is fucking W I L D

Yeah yeah, collective responsibility on all of us to support those who might not have had access to the same education, and thus fall for these scams. yeah yeah, it’s the banks fault and the need to “stop this from happening”…. honestly there comes up point when for me personally, people need to take responsibility for their own actions. To call yourself a victim here is a giant fucking stretch.
>*By the time she had completed all the reviews she had spent about $300. The money, plus $50 in commission, was transferred back to Campbell the next day through a Crypto trading platform.*

Jesus christ.
>*“I (was) pressured into continuing and by the time I completed my reviews I had spent just under $35,000.”*
>*Once Campbell was finished, she was then informed she needed to pay $10,000 to upgrade to a “pro” reviewing account.*

If you’ve dumped 35k into something of free cash, you are already above where most people are at. Some would call you rich already.
>The post was an advertisement for an online job with Virtuoso, a legitimate travel company, writing **fake reviews for hotels**, which Campbell thought she could easily do.
Who would have thought that getting paid to write fake reviews could go wrong?😂
She even had the nerve to setup a Gofundme page to try to recover the money she lost.

Holy fuck, the amount of red flags she blew through is insane.
$100k to write fake reviews. C’mon man… It’s just not realistic lol.
Then needing to pay to do it. How would that make any sense???? Why would it cost money to post reviews? Just strange.
Being paid in crypto the first time… Conveniently untraceable.
The huge amount she racked up after that… She got far too deep into it before she had any sort of critical thinking. Just insanely stupid.

First of all, she accepted a “job” that was so fucking unethical in every sense. Writing fake online reviews for hotels she had never been to.
Payment through crypto platforms. The reg flag was waving right there in front of her face. Real employers need to pay your bank account, tax, provide a payslip. Uh….
Now she wants the bank to pay her back and people to be sympathetic? I just can’t.

If your fiancé get’s scammed out of $35,000 of your wedding money due to her own greed, the best thing you can say to her is: “It’s ok honey. We didn’t need that money anyway. The wedding is off. And I’m off too. Good luck with your life.”
