# A job that asks you to pay in.

ID: SA-076
Type: Actual website capture
Audience / at-risk group: Job seekers and online task workers
Subject: obsidian-group.org

## Lesson
A number on a dashboard does not prove that withdrawable earnings exist. Do not send money to release supposed wages.

## Source findings
Desenmascara publishes a Fraudulent assessment of 100/100 for obsidian-group.org, based on attributed financial regulator warning. The verdict is the third-party listing's, reported with attribution, not an independent finding. 9 security vendors on VirusTotal independently flag the domain as malicious. Follow the report for the full rationale, evidence and any later correction.

## Limits
This case was added automatically from a dated, attributed source assessment; it is not an independent investigation by this project. The capture does not prove customer losses, operator identity or AI generation. Signals such as a young domain or shared hosting do not prove fraud on their own. If the source withdraws the verdict, this case is withdrawn too.
