Empowr is a social platform that incorporates a number of obvious scams. The first scam is the concept of 90 day maturity on all money coming into the system. If you are a vendor as I am, the proceeds of anything you sell are paid to your earnings pile, and not to you. To make the scam effective, any and all expenses are charged against the oldest entries first in a way that insures empowr will never have to pay any of their vendors or people who provide serives through empowr.

In my case, I had approximately 150 orders in the first three weeks. I went on an purchased the items and had them sent to the buyers. It was only after I sent the items that I was told about the 90 day maturity policy by empowr. It has now been over three month since those initial orders went out, and I have not received a penny of reimbursement from empowr. This is how they rip off vendors and service providors across the planet.

In almost 9 months I have an earnngs pile of over $97,000, yet I have not been paid a penny of those supposed earnings. I talked to another citizen who had an earnings pile of over $150,000, and they had not received a penny either, This brings us to the second scam that empowr is running. They tell everyone that we need to protect our account with Paypal so that we can receive payouts, but the reality is that doing so opens your personal bank accounts to a multitude of unapproved and unexplained charges that are completely uncontrolled. To protect myself, I had to disconnect from Paypal. When disconnected from Paypal, empowr refuses to make any payments.

The third scam is the issue of platform fees. These fees become quite large and can only be paid through your Paypal account. In my case, my platform fees have mounted up to $3414 so far, and those have to be paid from outside sources. The earnings pile can't be used. In my case, empowr will not pay any money out until those fees are paid, and even then, it is questionable as to whether or not I would ever receive any money out of my savings pile because it is unknown what other tricks empowr has to not make payments.
