Payoutproject[.]com the biggest scam ever on social media Facebook, twitter, TikTok, Instagram

A big scam is going on social medias. At the time of writing, thousands of people were scammed and the number is growing.

 The Payoutproject website is a marketing company located in the United States of America. The owner affirms that the members will be awarded after doing some tasks and activities which are given to them.

Many people already complained about the fake business. Unfortunately, the scam business is still growing up around the world.

As always, I love such investigation, I will share with you, how I investigated the fake business and the outcome after.

First of all, I checked the website via webarchive.org (https://web.archive.org/web/20230402014918/https://payoutproject.com/)

Like you see, the website is well design and will attract many visitors, let’s read the “Home page”.

We can see some information about the website and how we can be rewarded and get paid after performing some tasks. Well, I will be rich now 😊.

One important thing on the Home page is “There is no any fee, no any membership fee and no any paid thing. All is free... The main thing is your passion to the completion of task and promote to the friends

Many people will register to gain money fast because the is very easy and  fast.

I scrolled over the website, and found out that they are operating in many socials’ medias such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok.

As many scammers are usually on Facebook, I went through Facebook.com and I found on Facebook that someone published a post about the business (for privacy reason I won’t publish the name). I checked the profile of the user and found some suspicious comments scams and others social engineering threat. That was my first hit.

I found out that the post published by the user is getting more attention and is being viewed by millions of people following with thousands of comments.

At this point, we can see that the scam is word wide and many people are already impacted and will be impacted by this malicious activity.

Now, let’s reviews people feedback about the website via search engine online such as Chrome.

There are many reviews about the website, let’s detailed some of the reviews:

Like you see in the comments from different websites, most of people who commented agreed on one thing, the website is a scam, after investing in the website, the money grow and never received the money back.

This method can be used by the scammers to steal your sensitive data, so if you already created an account and used your PII or any sensitive data removed and changed your sensitive data and password if you used the same in any other account.
