NEW Scam Alert! [bhhfilmes.com website]
If you are on Internet, you will surely have been contacted by scammers trying to get money of off you, or trying to persuade you to invest and make millions!
Most of you directly block those people (and of course you should!). Generally speaking 100% of the persons who send you messages first, are scammers.
When I see a different message or approach, I always try to dig more into what the scam is all about. Why? To warn you. I always search for information online - so if I write about it, I hope my post will come forward to the ones looking for it.

This whole adventure started yesterday.
I got a message in Whats App, in Greek. The person told me that they found me from a Recruitment company and happily informed me that I was selected to become a part of their developing project. Of course, I would be trained and rewarded for that!
This reminded me of the previous scam, so I thought I should try it out and see what it is about.
In this case, I was given a telegram contact that guided me through all the details.
I should join this site https://bbhfilmes.com - sign up and then follow a specific process.
All the time she was talking to me in Greek
Red flags:
- Her Greek was not correct
- When I wrote in greeklish (Greek with English characters, she did not understand what I was writing)
- The site was too poor and simple, they did not even try to make it look better. (I wonder if they fooled anyone)
She was asking me to send her screenshots and then she told me that she paid an amount of USDT so that I could have my commission that was 24$!
She asked me to contact the contact service who then asked for my wallet to pay me the amount.
After that I was asked to join a 'work group' where a bunch of people (or bots) were trying to persuade me that it was a work group.
The final step is that they asked me to deposit 100-5(which was my bonus)=95$ to an account, so that they would return me the amount in whole + my commission!
How cool is that :)
Again, the same pattern as before.
Someone offers you a job.
You are "trained" and are offered a small compensation for your time.
They pay you that amount so that you trust them, and then ask you to deposit (of course) a greater amount than the one earned.
Please frens, be aware and always vigilant.
The only thing the scammers do is trying to outsmart us. They can be creative and very persuasive. This time they were amateurs (The scammer told me last night that she was sleepy and we would continue today, hahaha), but I am sure that there are many smarter scams born every minute.
Has something similar happened to you?
Thanks for stopping by!

The site is in Greek but the amounts are in $. What even is their target audience if they don't pay in EUR and don't name the currency?
I guess someone asked ChatGPT for a scam site and translations for all supported languages. Maybe even the scammer in the chat is just an AI.
Yeah, too many red flags to write them all.

Unfortunately this type of thing is more common than we imagine and they continue because they always encounter lay and naive people.
When people start avoiding these types of scams, this wave of these criminals will likely decrease considerably.
Scammers are everywhere you see, and they come in different ways. We just need to be able to outsmart them all the time.
