"Amazon urgently recruiting for part-time jobs, you can earn 3000-10000 Rs every day, add Whatsapp: wa.me/+91963XXXXXX"
Have you received this SMS recently? I have, almost daily. This is what this is all about. It involves @amazon, Indian government, @RioTinto! #Thread
The person identifies himself RT-Gold. "Amazon's strategic partner," the person says, asking if I want to make money?!!
"Our company is authorized.. to mine gold," I am told. A certificate follows as proof. "Under the supervision of the government, we face the society & help everyone get more income." "We are Rio Tinto Exploration India Private Limited. This is the company's authorization letter."
I ask the person - Amazon is an e-commerce company, you are talking about Rio Tinto? Answer: "Our project is under the supervision of the government and is classified as confidential work..It can be said that Amazon and the government invested in our company."
More details are always welcome.
"For example, the following police friend, he has earned his first car by joining the company and working actively. As long as you work actively, you can earn at least 30,000 Rs per month."
I won't be downloading the app, but some humor never hurts. I ask him if Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi knows about all this....."Of course he knows, friend," I am told.
The first car “earned” by “police friend” is visible in a video shared. It’s a Kia @Kia_Worldwide. Police friend explains how you can boost your income through the app. Car registration details show it belongs to one G Beema Rao (he has a LinkedIn profile of a cop too)
