[IN] - New kind of telephonic scam

Today, I got a call from an unknown number. The person on the other side started talking like he was a good friend of mine. I formally asked for his name and said, " Sorry, I have not saved his number and cannot identify him". Then he asked me to guess his name, and when I guessed, he claimed I was right.

Then he told me that one friend is trying to deposit the money in his account, but he is not able to, and would like to send the amount to my account and then transfer the same to him. I told him why he cannot use his close friends/family members to do the same; then he replied that his friend can't even send the money to them.

Then I realised this might be a scam. I asked him when we first met just to make sure that he is the one claiming the identity, and then he called it off.

Launched Gamopanda - Loyalty Gamification Platform

Hi, While all legacy loyalty software offers points as a medium for customer retention, I launched Gamopanda last month with a focus on gamification with features such as Streaks, Challenges, Milestones and Rewards. The roadmap includes Missions, Badges and Leaderboards.

I believe the future is Gamification, which can inculcate habits in a user to visit a brand multiple times increasing customer retention and ultimately revenue.

I would like to hear honest feedback from the community and being a solo founder/engineer, I would like to know how to crack the distribution of the software. Currently we are available on Shopify and Wix app stores and being API first, it can be integrated anywhere be it Hospitality, Hotels, Restaurants, Gaming, etc.
