Overview of the Scam

Fairaction Management has received reports that a group of scammers is using the name of Fairaction International within a WhatsApp group called "Fare harbor". These individuals often contact people through social media, particularly Facebook, and then invite them to complete tasks to earn rewards or money. As part of their deceit, they ask victims to deposit small amounts between $50-$100 into our charity account under the pretense of collaboration with us. Subsequently, they direct the victims to deposit larger funds into a cryptocurrency address via platforms like Bybit.

The only legitimate way to donate to Fairaction is through our official website (https://fairaction.ngo) using the donation form available on our web pages.
