- Newark, NJ, USA

I applied to a job as a virtual assistant for the company "Kairos" on the website "Indeed" and was messaged by the job "Kairos" to send them my resume at [email protected], so I did. I then was asked to answer a few questions as an email interview, and I did. A couple days later I was told that I had received the job then asked to fill out the official application, direct deposit form, a picture of a government ID (front and back) . After completing those, I was told that they were being processed and that I would be reached out to by my "manager, Mike Cairns" for orientation the following Tuesday. When Tuesday came, my "manager, Mike Cairns" reached out to me via text message and explained the things that I would be doing for him as his " virtual assistant". I was told by "Mike" that I would be starting at the company on the following Monday and was to check in at 9AM everyday Monday thru Friday via text message. When Monday came I texted as directed and he took 2 hours to respond but did assign me work to my email 3 hours later. The assignment had been to extract names, addresses and the last four numbers from people's social security numbers from W-2's and put the data on a google doc, excel or word document. I completed that for Monday and was assigned another one on Tuesday but a much larger amount of W-2's. Then next day I was told that a check would be on it's way to me and that $500 of that check was mine as my "sign-on bonus". Thursday morning the check was delivered to my home by Fedex, the check amounted for $4,750. I let "Mike" know that I had received the check and sent him a picture of it, he then told me to deposit the check and send him a picture of the deposit receipt. The check had a different name on it, it wasn't "my company's name" so I was suspicious. I then called the bank that was on the check to verify that it was a legitimate check, when I called the banker was also suspicious and let me know that she would call the account holder to see what was going on and she would email me. A few hours later the banker let me know that the check was not legitimate and that I had been scammed. I did not tell "Mike" this information in fear that he would do something to my bank information and use my social security number, but I did shut down my bank account and stopped messaging him.
