    Any advice what to do re the Whatapp numbers i have accumulated ?

    Have one for the fake job agency, One for "user support",  Two for my "mentor",  One for the person who said they started new as same time as me,  and one for the group chat.

    was planning to report & block, anything else worthwhile? 
    No harm in reporting the numbers to WhatsApp but you might struggle to convince them of a demonstrable breach of their terms.

    You could try reporting the matter to the police, rather than just Action Fraud, but it seems unlikely that burner phones and crypto wallets would form any meaningful evidence trail to follow.

    Have also emailed the legit Feedvisor company, notifying them of the scam site - got an out of office reply, hopefully they pick it up on Monday.

    And as said earlier, already advised the legit Recruitment agency.
