This is a complete scam. The company behind “athotel” recruits random people into WhatsApp and Telegram groups, offering €10 to leave fake positive reviews, and then disputes the payments to steal the money back.I was added to one of these scam groups today. Out of 30 members, only 2 or 3 were actually in German-speaking countries. The rest were from India, Turkey, Slovakia, Nigeria, the USA, and more, yet everyone was instructed to write in German to make the reviews look local and authentic.They advertise a “40% discount” on hotel bookings, which is totally unrealistic and clearly bait. The website is shady, and there’s no real service behind it. You won’t get a valid reservation, and you’ll likely lose your money or have your data stolen.All the positive reviews are fake, written by people who were paid to post them, and then scammed themselves.To protect victims, I literally had to write a script to flood the scam group with warning messages and disrupt their operation.Avoid this company at all costs. It’s not a travel service, it’s a fraud network.
