Task Force Blocks Digital Platform Snapboost
The Task Force for the Eradication of Illegal Financial Activities (Satgas Pasti) has halted the business activities of the digital platform Snapboost. The application offered social media monetisation and used a C2E (Click to Earn) system, luring users with the promise of income through liking and sharing content on various social media platforms.
Satgas Pasti Secretary Hudiyanto stated that the illegal activity allegedly used an investment scheme modus operandi involving tasks to like posts on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, or TikTok. The public was required to deposit money upfront in order to receive a commission from these activities.
Furthermore, Snapboost promised daily income, bonuses based on membership tiers, commissions for recruiting new members (member get member), and prizes such as motorcycles and cars for members who deposited funds in certain amounts, Hudiyanto said in an official statement on Tuesday, 28 July 2026.
Upon investigation, Satgas Pasti found that Snapboost had no legal entity or business licence in Indonesia, and the application or website used was not registered as an Electronic System Operator (PSE) with the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs.
The task force also found indications that the perpetrators periodically changed the link addresses or URLs using different names, whilst maintaining the same appearance, features, and operational mechanisms, suggesting they are interconnected.
Based on these findings, Satgas Pasti has ceased the activities by blocking access to the application and its links. The task force is also coordinating with law enforcement officials for further legal proceedings in accordance with applicable regulations.
Members of the public who have suffered losses from these activities are urged to immediately report to local law enforcement to expedite the handling process. The task force also reminded the public to always be cautious of financial activities that promise high returns in a short time or are illogical, especially those requiring upfront deposits and operating through sites or applications that frequently change their link addresses.
