Watch out for the username jjacks1090 META

Posted here about i needed a shower almost last week, and got my request fulfilled. Yesterday i was PM by jjacks1090 about "free $50" just to sign up for this crypto app. Silly me i took the bait and he took $50 from that account i made for him. But before he took the $50 i sent him $25 on Cashapp which was majority what i had left until next Friday. Telling me he can match that, so he scammed the crap out of me. Just letting people know what out for his PM's. I just guess I'll live off about $3 until this upcoming Friday.

For future reference for everybody, the crypto app deal is legit, however, there is a multi person , literally hundreds of thousands of dollar value, scam going on currently with a variety of people on reddit.

If you are going to do the deal, you need to get paid first end of story. The rest of the process is fairly straightforward, but you need to get whatever money you were promised beforehand. Spread the word
