Yeah a review post from Facebook ads

I still find it hard to believe that people will fall for anything that's advertised on Facebook.

Sure, if it's Mrs. Goggins from the village selling a chest of draws for a tenner, that's more than likely genuine.  But aside from the genuine local "for sale" ads, pretty much every ad you see is either fake or scam.  I really do struggle to believe that people still fall for this rubbish.

plus the one who posted a review about this app on Facebook ads was a female ...  (I'm pretty sure if the profile was a guy, I wouldn't get baited so easily like this) 

Why?  You do realise that sexism is a somewhat outdated concept these days?

I think this syndicate combine this type of scam with the so called  "attract the opposite gender scamming" since after I contacted this person who advertised the app, we moved to WhatsApp and talked about a lot of things, shared daily life photos, personal experiences etc for around 2-3 weeks before she later explained the app in more details etc and suggested me to try invest in a small amount first. All her photos and informations about her workplace etc were consistant in terms of date, location etc and it made me blind to gave it a shot to the app. 

this kind of scam still exist since there still a lot of ppl out there who are vulnerable to this, and shame on me I'm one of them

Sexism might be, but being attracted to the opposite sex is still very much alive !
