"This platform are scammers"

This platform are scammers. Don't believe in them because you will loose all the deposits you make. In. case you arrive at the end of the tasks (covering with many money), they will froze your account and ask you deposit another 8000 USDC for change to the VIP4 for recover your money. Don't believe them if you do it you will also loose the 8000 USDC. I hope the can change the money they stole me in medicines.

"Get rich quick scam"

Get rich quick scam. This is how they operate:
You are getting contacted on WhatsApp by a recruiter with an Indian number who falsely claims to be from a reputable local in this case European headhunting7 staffing company. They offer a full-time/part-time position. Once you confirm your interest, the hiring manager contacts you by WhatsApp and explains that the role involves Search Engine Optimization to enhance the visibility of certain hotels on booking platforms by leaving customer reviews. No phone interview/ all communication via chat. The hiring manager conducts "training" by providing access to a platform where you select pre-written reviews that are supposedly posted.
The interesting part is that there is money involved (without obvious reasons) and it is more set up like a casino, while you cannot win.
This is how it works:
You get an initial balance so you can start providing the "reviews". They assign a batch of 40 reviews to you. Once you start it, you cannot stop or cancel. Before you submit a review, it shows you a room rate, for example, USD 95. You submit the review, and you get 0,5% (USD 0,48) of this amount added to your balance. Once in a while, you get "lucky" because you get a combo. This means you get 6%, but the room rate is not USD 95, but 395. So your balance becomes negative and you cannot proceed. They are asking you to top off the balance, so it becomes at least 0 so you can proceed. The first time, you are adding just a few USD, but this is when they try to hook you. The room rates depend on your balance. so whenever you are starting a batch you have an exponential rate increase. Every time you complete a batch, you need to contact customer service to "reset" you account. You think that you keep it low key and start with a minimum balance that they gave you firsthand. Customer Service gives you the already your "salary" of e.g. USD 599 for 2 days of work when they reset you and there is no way you can cash this out before starting your batch. Within a few minutes, you run into exorbitant negative balances. So you need to add thousands of USD tho get your money back. And even then you can be sure you get lucky with a combo on the 39th task.
As the other reviewer said, they try to engage you with a WhatsApp group where everyone shares screenshots of all the money they made and that there is a limited-time offer to get extra bonuses as the company celebrates its birthday.
This is from the scammer's best-practice handbook.
The company is called Stratify Limited and they pretend to be working for or with hotelscombined. You will find the scammer at stratifylimited.

"Scammer group"

Well-organized scammer group. Their logic seems to earn the money. But they steal the money from user. They removed my account and my contact on what'sapp group channel. I lost my money.
I investigated their wallet address and group users. They are writing the fake chats on group. Please don't believe it. All scammers. Please don't use this site. Terrible.

"Hotelcombined/Orbitz = SCAM"

In the beginning it was fine Rating Hotels and withdrawing commissions , then as went on and started loading more to rate, the figures started going UP and being in negative you had to put that amount to match it in order to withdraw & now I have no contact from anyone and both sites are inactive. I have reported to Wise on transactions as have had no response from Action Fraud since Nov! If anyone has another way of retrieving funds please let me know

"This is a very intricate SCAM"

This is a very intricate and impressive scam, it seems as if you get commissions for rating hotels online, but you have to top up your account in order to continue rating.

From what I understand, on day 3-4 you will encounter premium hotels which will put your account in negative in order to review them, meaning you will need to keep on spending your own money by topping up your account in order to continue rating hotels, which inevitably leads you to becoming negative.

Luckily this is my first day of the scam & I have withdrawn my initial £50 deposit followed by the commission I earned for the first day of reviews.

I believe this scam was first impersonating HotelsCombined and now they are impersonating Orbitz.

I am still in the “Orbitz” telegram group right now, I have confronted them but they are all denying it and telling me to “believe what I want to believe”.

Is there anyone who has been scammed by these same people and want to speak about it?
