My friend linked his Riipen account to Google, and soon after, his Riipen password was suddenly changed. Later, he noticed suspicious login attempts on other accounts like Microsoft, which makes it seem like someone may have gotten access to his Riipen password and started trying it on other websites.

I’m not saying this is 100% caused by Riipen, but please be safe. Do not reuse the same password across different accounts. If your Riipen password is the same as your email, Microsoft, school, banking, or any other account, change it immediately.

Also turn on two-factor authentication wherever possible and check your recent login activity on your important accounts.

Not gonna lie, some of these Riipen Level UP projects are wilding😭

You click on a project thinking it’s a student learning opportunity, then suddenly the company wants:

market research, competitor analysis, social media strategy, branding plan, customer acquisition plan, implementation roadmap, final report, pitch deck, reflection, and probably a handwritten apology to their Q4 revenue.

Like bro… this is not a “student project” anymore, they just doing cheap labour cause payment is capped at 23/hr or around that and no overtime
😭

I’m not saying every company is bad. Some are actually fair. But some of these project scopes feel like companies discovered a student labour cheat code.

Anyone else seeing projects with like 8–10 deliverables and thinking, “wait… am I getting experience or am I being outsourced?”

If anyone knows I would really appreciate if they can let me know and others as well as I’m trying to get in one of the programs.
