THE APPLE WATCH SCAM 📱

The "India Gates Moving" scheme promised to reward people for walking daily, claiming you could earn enough points to get a free Apple Watch or even have your money refunded. To join, you had to buy an Apple Watch (around ₹47,000), and you could either pay upfront or through EMI, with the idea that walking 8,000 steps a day would earn you points that would eventually translate into cash.

At first, everything seemed fine. People walked, earned points, and thought they'd get their money back. But soon, delays began. Rewards that were supposed to come in weeks took longer, and then stopped altogether. People waited for months, but the promised refunds and rewards never materialized.

The program was linked to big names like HDFC Ergo, but despite these partnerships, users were left frustrated with no resolution. Some tried to "hack" the system by having others walk for them or even using their pets to rack up steps, but the points still never showed up as promised.

In the end, it became clear: this wasn’t a legitimate program but a scam designed to trick people into paying for an Apple Watch with no intention of refunding them.

Lesson learned: Don't let shiny promises blind you! If it sounds too easy to make money, it probably is a trap. Always do your homework.
