Hindi ba masyadong too good to be true yung offer na kikita ka sa pakikipag interact at pag upload lang ng photos and videos? So pwedeng ginagamit nila yung mga data na nakukuha nila mula sa users para ibenta. Anong masasabi nyo dito?

Too good to be true talaga. There's no possible way of income para makapag giveaways sila ng pera without proper sources such as ads, AFAIK they don't even show advertisements on their websites eh. Pure and flat social media platform ang offer nito tapos may 'money' involved which is alarming kasi napakaraming pinoy ang mahilig kumagat sa mga ganitong easy money schemes. Here's my breakdown kung bakit dapat maging aware ang lahat sa pagdownload at pag gamit ng app na ito (some is also based on the reddit post):

My worst found clue why this is alarming, if you would read their Privacy Policy, makikita rito na may mga blanks especially when it says anything about their contact. Yes they have their contact indicated sa page, pero blanko at kulang kulang sa may Privacy Policy mismo!^[1]
Their contact number is a HongKong Phone Line, location is a legitimate Office Centre named Servcorp (which is possibly where they rent their office), but the most shocking is...
Their indicated location in their website is fake! attachments are below;

This is the indicated location in their website:

This is the location when you look it up on Google Maps

So basically, their location is not even on the street name they've indicated! We don't even know if the number is legit.
They only accept Filipino users??! We don't know for sure. but if it was so, this is a total redflag.

Honestly, yung Data Theft is common, even facebook and google manages to do the same hideous activities as the Lyka did. For many users na nagtatanong bakit ganon, it is mostly for an algorithm that is used for suggestions and advertisements, a better user experience kung ikaw yung nagdedevelop. Pero gaya nga din ng Facebook, maaari itong ibenta ng kahit na kailan, mababasa din sa Privacy Policy nila na rights nila yon especially kung business partners naman nila. Yep, it is alarming to that point and on, but ang ugali talaga ng Pinoy is basta may perang invovle sige lang nang sige. Undecided

Sa tingin ko is tulad lang ito ng Peraswipe, Media buzz at iba pang application na maari ka kumita through invite ang kaibihan lang dito ay para itong social media kung saan ang kikita ka through exchange ng like din also pwede ka mag donate, well ngayong pandemic hindi na ako mag tataka kung ang ilan sa mga pinoy ay try itong application regardless nalang yang permission sa media files at camera nila alam naman namin hindi mahilig mag basa ng terms and condition ang ilan satin at ang mahalaga ngayon kumita, money > security kumbaka ang madalas lang naman conscious sa privacy ay yung knowledgeable sa internet at netiquette, feeling ko mawawala din yang hype ng lyka app wait lang tayo mga ilang linggo sure tatamadin yung iba dyan gumamit kasi bagal ng progress.

Apparently, Peraswipe and MediaBuzz both can earn from advertisements and paid contents. Lyka can also do the same, but from this point on na wala ads na pinapakita ang Lyka, it is impossible to generate a revenue to be rewarded sa users just by simply downloading and engaging on it. Para na ding naniwala ang pinoy na may pera sa paghinga lol
