Currently, there are numerous scams utilizing Telegram groups, falsely claiming association with various legitimate companies, including Traveloka.

Be cautious when you are suddenly invited to join a Telegram group that claims to be associated with any company. You may be a potential target for these scams.

How the Paid Mission Frauds Work

Scammers collect essential data from potential targets, including their phone numbers. Subsequently, without permission, these contact numbers are added to a Telegram group falsely claiming to be associated with Traveloka.

The scammers then provide daily updates about paid “missions”, promising monetary rewards or commissions to potential victims. These paid missions vary, ranging from surveys, games to installing specific applications.

Victims enticed by this scheme receive rewards in the form of a specific monetary amount or other gifts such as cars, motorcycles and even gold bars. The scammers then entice the targets to claim more rewards by paying or transferring a monetary deposit.

Many victims have fallen for these paid missions. Stay vigilant to protect yourself and avoid being the next victim!
