Case: Multi-accounting for earning on virtual gifts

Scenario: create 8 female profiles and receive virtual gifts from men.

Infrastructure:

  • 8 numbers (different operators)
  • 8 photos (different women, attractive)
  • 4 VPNs (different IPs)
  • Antidetect browser

Process:

  1. Register 8 profiles over 3 days (2-3 per day)

  3. Active work: flirting, messaging, responding to attention
  4. Receiving virtual gifts (average check $5-50)
  5. Withdraw money weekly

ROI calculation:

  • 8 profiles × 10-20 gifts per week × $10 (average) = $800-1,600 per week
  • Costs: numbers (200 RUB), withdrawal commission (5-10%)
  • Profit: 3,000-6,400 RUB per week (or 12,000-25,000 RUB per month)
