I Can Claim Daily Rewards-Chapter 2 Shady App
After cursing Jackson to his heart's content, Arlan turned his gaze at the huge building of the construction company.
Bakal Brothers Co.
It was the name of the company and he carved it deeply in his heart.
"What should I do now?" Arlan found himself sitting on a roadside bench.
His parents were farmers who live in the countryside and they used a huge portion of their savings to send him to work in the city. He would be too ashamed to return to his home given his current situation.
He grabbed the phone inside his bag and searched through the social media for companies who are looking for workers.
He only had six thousand pesos in his bank account which was equivalent to 120 dollars. This could only last him for a little more than a week even if he lived frugally.
He had to find another job before he uses up all of his remaining money.
Suddenly, he noticed a strange advertisement in the corner of his phone and accidentally clicked it.
"What the heck is this?" The advertisement directed him to an app that was automatically downloaded on his device. He tried to stop the downloading process, but his phone didn't seem to listen to him.
This made him feel a bit anxious since it was his first time encountering something like this. He was worried that the app was a hacking software that might steal his bank information. "Dammit! Why is this happening to me?! Why am I so unlucky today?!" He muttered through gritted teeth. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝑡
Soon, the downloading process of the app was completed and it automatically opened.
"No! No! No!" Arlan was at his wit's end when he saw that the app was now opening. He thought that it was about to steal his bank information so he felt extremely nervous.
He tried to turn off his phone, but it didn't seem to work. When the app started loading, he gave up and just stared at the screen with a blank look on his face.
The screen flashed and a few lines of words appeared.
[Thank you for downloading our app!]
[You can now claim daily rewards!]
[Do you want to claim your reward for today?]
[Yes]
Arlan stared at the screen bitterly. There wasn't even a 'No' option. He tried to exit the app again, but it still didn't work. He sighed and clicked 'Yes' with a heavy heart.
[Congratulations! You claimed 100,000 pesos!]
(Note: 100,000 pesos = 2000 dollars)
[The money has already been delivered to your bank account.]
As soon as those words appeared on his screen, the app closed itself and he was directed to his home screen.
Arlan anxiously checked his bank account after the strange scenes from earlier and he was stunned when he saw the amount in his savings.
106,000
He only had six thousand pesos in his bank account so where did the extra one hundred thousand come from?
He suddenly remembered the words that flashed on his screen earlier. Didn't it say that he got 100,000 pesos after he claimed his daily reward? Could it be true? Was he dreaming?
Arlan rubbed his eyes and pinched his cheeks before looking at the amount in his savings account.
106,000
"This... What's happening?!" He exclaimed in surprise. He searched for the strange app from earlier, but he could no longer find it. It seemed to have disappeared and there wasn't even a trace of it to be found.
A few moments later, he turned off his phone in confusion. He decided to check if the money in his account was real. To know this, he went to the nearest ATM in the area.
He grabbed his bank card and inserted it into the machine. After inputting his details, he pressed the option to withdraw money. The ATMs in his country have a 10,000 pesos limit per transaction for withdrawal. And the daily limit that he could withdraw is 50,000 pesos, but he did one transactions first to see if the money was real. He then checked the remaining money in his savings account.
96,000
"It's real! No way! Hahaha!" He then made four more transactions to get 40,000 pesos. He laughed joyfully as he clutched the thin stack of money in his hands. It was the easiest money he got in his life and it appeared so unexpectedly. He didn't even know how it happened or how he triggered the app.
Arlan put away the money and kept it inside his wallet. It was the first time his wallet had so much money and it made him feel extremely good.
'Now, I don't have to worry about my expenses for the next month.' He thought to himself.
He hurriedly returned to his apartment. When he arrived at his apartment, he decided to celebrate the unexpected earning by eating some delicious food. He opened a food delivery app and ordered from his favorite food chain restaurant. The total amount of his order exceeded 700 pesos, but he still proceeded with the order. This amount of money was equivalent to a day of his expenses, but he didn't mind.
Soon, the food he ordered arrived. He got out of his apartment building and searched for the delivery rider.
"Are you Sir Arlan?" The rider checked the transaction on his device as he asked with an uncertain tone.
Arlan nodded his head and showed the rider the transaction details on his phone. "Yes, it's me. Here's my payment. You can keep the change." He said as he handed a one thousand peso bill to the rider.
"Sir, you still have three hundred pesos change. Are you sure about this?" The delivery rider was surprised by his generosity. 300 pesos was already a lot of money for him.
Arlan smiled as he nodded his head. He got this money out of the blue and he didn't mind giving a small amount to this delivery rider. "Please keep it." He said as he waved his hand.
"Thank you so much, sir!" The rider muttered gratefully.
Arlan felt good when he saw the joyful expression of the rider.
He returned to his apartment with a bag of delicious food.
