Data Entry Job Scam in www.gog-group.com

It started as a post for a Data Entry Clerk job posted on our community Facebook group. It says that is open for those who wish to work from home. I clicked on it and messaged the one who posted the job opening and then I was "endorsed" to someone who messaged me on WhatsApp. I then communicated with a certain Elias Carter (she said she will be my mentor for this job) with mobile number 778-576-9180 and then immediately started the "training". I was asked to register to their site https://www.gog-group.com which she said is an "apps optimization site" that helps boost/optimize apps in AppStore & PlayStore. Basically they say, we as data entry clerks are going to get commissions when we complete the daily tasks. I went for it and logged in at an account given to me with Username: Elias5158 and Password: 51585158. It seemed harmless at first because it was just clicking and that's all to it. After some time during the training, the account shows a "negative balance" which requires a "recharge". Elias, my mentor, went on by depositing certain amounts of USDC cryptocurrency into the account so I may be able to continue with the tasks. She has deposited an amount of about 2194USDC. After finishing this initial training, I was asked to log in to my own account with Username: MCMFLORES and Password: Elia$5158. This went on for days and indeed, I was actually able to withdraw my commissions via Newton Cryptowallet. I was able to withdraw a total of 850CAD as my commission, therefore it seemed legitimate at first. However, come March 25, and I am basically on my 3rd day of training, I was asked to do a "recharge" of certain amounts - it started with 582CAD, 270CAD, 1185CAD and the last one was asking for a much higher amount of 2210CAD. I had to stop on the 4th as I thought it has gotten way out of hand. This is where I told my mentor Elias that I don't have that amount of money and that I wish to quit and claim the money I have initially deposited. She then went on saying that it cannot be cancelled or changed once there is a "negative balance" on the account and the only way to deal with it was to give in to the "recharge" amounts required by the website, making it impossible to get the money I have sent. I am still in contact with her via Telegram and WhatsApp and is still a part of the Telegram group that they have created for the ones doing working for them. Right now, I definitely know that I was scammed to it and I still see a lot of Facebook posts claiming to be a legitimate work from home job, but ending as a similar thing to what I have encountered here in https://www.gog-group.com.
