So I met this guy on Meeff. His profile says he is 33, Chinese, but living in Germany. Which does match his phone number and he also occasionally talked German to me, but I don't speak nor understand it super well even though my language is quite similar.
I've been trying to figure out in what category I need to place him so I made a thread for him. It's very fishy even though I'm not quite have figured out what the scam really is. It's still something I like to warn people about.
So he told me he worked for Zalando and that he was doing a part-time job for them.
[19:29, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: I am helping Zalando with a part-time job, I hope you have time to learn this part-time job with me
[19:29, 06-01-2021] Me: What kind of part-time job are we talking about?
[20:37, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Help online shopping platforms to evaluate
[20:37, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Do you know, we help them increase their visibility and sales so that more people can discover their products
[20:38, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Then they will pay us
[20:38, 06-01-2021] Me: How does that work?
[20:39, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: We just need to help them win good reviews by selling poorly-selling products, it’s very simple
[20:40, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: I can give you an account, you help me operate,
He gave me this website:
https://www.sup-money.com/index/user/login.html
His account: 15005933252
Password: aa123456
I was curious so I logged in since it had nothing to do with my own personal information. This is the account:
The explanation of what you need to do ( He showed a German version, but today he gave me one in English too):
[20:45, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Repeat this operation 40 times
[20:46, 06-01-2021] Me: does that make me order the things though?
[20:48, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: no
[20:49, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: This does not require sending goods, it is only used for higher sales of merchants on the platform, so more online shoppers will pay attention to higher sales of merchants and then make purchases
[20:50, 06-01-2021] Me: oohh ok ok I understand now
[20:57, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: You help me finish, I will invite you to eat and drink in the future, haha
[21:05, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Are you helping me beautiful girl
[21:06, 06-01-2021] Me:
what's in it for me?
[21:09, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: You learn, understand and be familiar with
[21:09, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: When you are familiar with it, you can do part-time job by yourself, or you can help me do it, I will pay you
[21:13, 06-01-2021] Me: Alright
[21:24, 06-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Tell me when finished, thank you
[14:26, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: You help me to complete it, I will pay you 100 euros, if you learn this skill, you can choose to do it yourself
[14:26, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: I understand what I said, I will pay you 100 euros
[14:26, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: If you don’t help me, then I don’t force you. This is a good thing. For new things, we must learn. ( He says he is not forcing anyone yet keeps asking me everyday if I helped him with this "job" )
[20:41, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: I just finished my part-time job at Zalando
[20:42, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Do you want to work part-time with me? You can earn hundreds of Euros in 10 minutes every day
[20:42, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022:
[20:43, 07-01-2021] Me: How fun as that sounds you will have to explain to me more how that works and what I'm earning that money with
[20:45, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: The platform is a place to place poorly-selling products, and then we help them increase sales, increase product awareness and increase sales
[20:46, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Those merchants whose sales are not good are all placed on this platform for us to check sales popularity and attention.
Every time we make an order, those merchants’ products will increase sales.
Why do they put the products on this platform for ordering, because people who shop online all depend on whether each product has sales and whether it is well received. In order to make more people know their products, thereby increasing their product quantity and sales volume.
[20:47, 07-01-2021] Me: ok and what merchants are we talking about? Who pays you to do it?
[20:48, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: We help merchants check orders through the sem platform. The platform will pay us a commission. Where does the platform commission come from? Merchants on shopping platforms such as LAzada and Amazon will pay the platform commission. The platform recruits a large number of agents. While we make money, the sem platform is also making money. The merchants who pay the commission are those on the online shopping platform.
[20:49, 07-01-2021] Me: hmmm
[20:49, 07-01-2021] Me: and you do this for Zalando?
[20:50, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Yes, I am responsible for helping Zalando
[20:51, 07-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: So you can also help it check the order
[13:11, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Recruiters [part-time/full-time] are suitable for housewives, students, office workers. 1. The number of recruits is 10/50. 2

. 3. Work content, order a cellular network to support e-commerce, distributors, and improve product sales/familiarity/ranking

[13:13, 10-01-2021] Me: What are you talking about?
[13:21, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Ahaha, the zalando part-time job I said last time
[13:22, 10-01-2021] Me: Aahh ok
[13:23, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Do you do it or help me do it haha
[13:23, 10-01-2021] Me: No
[13:24, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: It’s a pity, it’s great, but you are not interested
[13:25, 10-01-2021] ME: I mean I asked Zalando about it and they said they are not working like this so yeah not interested.
[13:32, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: They certainly don't know
[13:32, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Because this is secretly helping businesses increase virtual sales,
[13:32, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Of course, this is not illegal
[13:33, 10-01-2021] Me: How does that make sense if they are the one paying you for this? Which is what you told me before
[13:34, 10-01-2021] Me: It kinda makes it sound illegal actually if they don't know about this
[13:34, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: This is a universal platform connecting all e-commerce products in the world. Products that do not sell well in e-commerce are placed on this platform so that we can check the popularity and attention of sales. Every time we check the order, the products of these merchants increase sales. Why do they sell products? Put it on this platform to order, because people who shop online depend on whether each product is sold. If there are sales, they will choose to buy their products.
[13:35, 10-01-2021] Me: Yeah you already said that
[13:38, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: Ok, you are not interested, I will not force you
[13:50, 10-01-2021] +49 1590 8516022: You can help me finish it, I will pay you a commission, 30 euros, 10 minutes

I'm kinda sad since he had more pictures on Meeff but when I added him he suddenly only had one, though he added one more to the profile now.
And he changed his profile picture on WhatsApp now too:
Also a strange thing I found is on his WhatsApp he uses the name: Shubert Samuel
