Scam Alert: Fake "Dthree Digital" Telegram Job Groups Impersonating Our Agency
Dthree Digital does not run task-based jobs, paid online work, or trading programs. We do not recruit through Telegram. If someone has invited you to a group offering work or earnings under our name, it is a scam.
We have received several reports from people contacted by a group impersonating our business. We want to set the record straight and help anyone affected take the right steps.
What the scam looks like
The scam uses our agency name to recruit people for fake "virtual assistant" or online task jobs. The pattern reported to us includes:
- An invite to a Telegram group named "DThree Digital marketing agency"
- A recruiter or admin, using names such as "Danielle Catalonia," who assigns "tasks" and promises earnings
- Instructions to deposit money and trade on a third-party platform (one reported example is "weexonline")
- Funds being frozen after deposit, followed by demands for more money to "unlock" or "withdraw"

This is a known scam structure. The earnings are not real, and the deposits are not recoverable through the group.
How to know it is not us
Dthree Digital is a web design and development agency. To be clear:
- We do not offer task-based work, commissions, or earning programs
- We never ask anyone to deposit money or trade on any platform
- We do not recruit or onboard through Telegram
- We have no staff named "Danielle Catalonia"
Our only official channels are:
- Website: dthree.com.ph
- Email: hello@dthree.com.ph
If contact comes from anywhere else under our name, treat it as fraudulent.
What to do if you have been contacted
- Leave the group and stop all contact with the recruiter
- Do not send money, including any "fee" to unlock or withdraw funds
- Do not share bank details, OTPs, or personal information
If you have already deposited money:
- Contact your bank or e-wallet provider immediately and report it as fraud
- File a report with the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group (acg.pnp.gov.ph) or the NBI Cybercrime Division
- Keep all evidence: screenshots, receipts, account names, and links
Verifying it is really us
If you are unsure whether a message is from Dthree Digital, reach us directly at hello@dthree.com.ph or through dthree.com.ph before acting on anything. We are always glad to confirm.
