TaskTelent = Fraud Aug 29

A company, named TaskTelent (https://www.tasktalent.org/), assigned a job with two files for En -> Zh-TW translation. The contact is Kathrin Walter with the Email address of kathrinwalter@tasktalent.org.

A company, named TaskTelent (https://www.tasktalent.org/), assigned a job with two files for En -> Zh-TW translation. The contact is Kathrin Walter with the Email address of kathrinwalter@tasktalent.org. The agreed charge is £8500 in total, in which £4250 will be paied at first once the first half portion is delivered. After the delivery of the first half portion, Kathrin conducts the payment very quickly (in one day). However, there is no notification of receipt of that money after one week. Then Kathrin mails to me and asks the condition of receipt of money, followed by providing me a link to MutualTrust
Credit Union (https://mutualtrustcreditunion.com/) and asking me to contacting MutualTrust for receiving money by myself. However, MutualTrust suspiciously asks me to pay £254 as a refundable fee for security check. I refused and then asked Kathrin to solve this issue or send me £254 for such a "security check" in a "refundable" way (I will return £254). However, Kathrin resued all of the solutions and insists on asking me to provide £254 at first. Obviously, this is a fraud.

有家TaskTelent (https://www.tasktalent.org/)採用MutualTrust Credit Union付款(https://mutualtrustcreditunion.com/)，款項為4250英磅，但這個MutualTrust Credit Union卻要求我先支付254英磅，理由是洗錢防制之類的安檢，我懷疑是詐騙，已檢舉給台灣警方，有空時再看看有無駐台英國辦事處可以幫忙通報回英國，以免更多人受害。 ▲ Collapse
