Who can represent my brands on ozbargain? preferably someone with an established account there.
Who can represent my brands on ozbargain to share my discounts regularly? Need someone who is established and familiar with the website.
Recently, I found a link on Instagram about boosting product data for OzBargain. Someone contacted me on WhatsApp, claiming to be a trainer. They told me I needed to finish 40 orders per day to help boost product data. They said I would earn commissions after completing 40 orders, but I had to pay upfront for some products with higher commission fees, with the promise of getting my money back along with the commissions.
I paid $2800 upfront to someone named Sharlee Wilson for fake purchases, hoping to get my money back with commissions. After each payment, they asked me to buy and pay for more expensive items, promising higher returns. Eventually, I ran out of money to pay for the more expensive items, and now all my money is gone.
This fake purchage managed by Oz Bargain can destroy anyone. Be careful. If anyone knows how I can get my money back, please let me know.
I forgot to mention that the website they use to boost 40 products per day is external link Depending on the initial money in your account, they offer more expensive items, which you must pay for, hoping to get your money back with commissions after 40 orders. I had more than $4000 in my account: $2800 was my own money, and $1200 was commission. They offered me a $10,000 product, which was beyond my financial capacity to pay for the fake purchase from Sharlee Wilson, who appears to be one of the founders of Oz Bargain.
Since I couldn't finish 40 orders, they won't even return my own money.
Please be very careful.
Yes it's a scam. Please see the discussions we have here external link It's best to contact (1) police (2) your financial institution on the possibility to reclaim the fund. We need enough people (those who fall victim to this scam) to report to the police to create a case. If you have deposited the money to an Australian bank account, the receiving bank should have some KYC data, that they will be able to provide to the police.
So you don't know someone named Sharlee Wilson from Oz Bargain?
No.

A random customer shares our discounts there and brings some decent sales to us. But I am not quite familiar with the website itself. How can I find someone to represent us on ozbargain? Like a small freelancing opportunity. Message me or skype: live:contact_74046
Did you find someone?

I refer to this comment here by Colin https://www.productreview.com.au/reviews/02666a09-5857-3a52-a467-e6c3053164bd
What are the other alternative sites? Product review lists sites that aren't really alternative community moderated deal sites.

Thanks Kay for the suggestion. I looked at the websites listed there and could only find one that topbargains is a community deal site and it's mostly dead with posts back two years ago. Buckscoops doesn't have community driven deals but does have dead facebook groups linked.
Anyone help further?
Has anyone been put in the penalty box even after getting pre approval for a classifieds post and asking if it was ok and getting a positive answer?
