Frequently Asked Questions
How do "Part-Time Task" scams function on Telegram?
Victims are contacted via WhatsApp and redirected to Telegram. They are given small tasks (like rating hotels or liking YouTube videos) and paid ₹150-₹500. They are then added to VIP Telegram groups and coerced into "prepaid merchant tasks" (investing money to get high returns) which lock them out once they deposit large sums.
Why is Telegram popular among online scammers?
Telegram allows users to hide their identities, delete chat logs for both sides, and host massive channels with minimal registration friction, making it a primary medium for fraudulent promoters.
Are VIP Trading Advice channels safe?
Most "VIP Trading" channels offering stock tips or crypto signals are fraudulent. They use fake screenshots of huge earnings to get subscription fees or deposit funds into unverified trading applications.
