Metric Flow's Gold membership required me to cover supposed data work

I was recruited for a digital-marketing role with Metric Flow and initially appeared to make money through the service. After upgrading to a Gold membership, the profit figures increased, but so did the amount I was required to cover for supposed data work.

The job mainly involved clicking buttons while the phone and website handled the work. I am sharing this because a job that requires workers to deposit money to continue can create serious financial risk.
