Total money lost $2,000
Type of a scam Employment
He was insistent that he know when I deposited the check and when it would clear. When I told him I had deposited the check he told me that the clients decided to not add the extra work and to send back $6800.00 of the $13,000.00. After the check had cleared on May 9, 2023 I texted him how did he want me to send it. First the said to send it via Bitcoin but I don't deal in that. I suggested Paypal or Cash as he wanted me to try Zelle. I didn't have Zelle so I said I'd send it via Cash app. He told me to try wiring it through the app but it wouldn't let me wire the whole amount or any amount at all because my bank, Trustmark, doesn't allow it through third-parties. So I said I'd send a little at a time through the app at a $2000.00 limit. He gave me an Cash app user name that was not his. I asked if it was an associates account. He said yes. So I app the $2000.00. He then told me to just send the $4800.00 through official check through priority mail and told me to use some of the money to pay for it. So I did, that day after work. It was when I checked my account on May 12, 2023 when I found out that the check came back as an "Altered/Fictitious Item" and Trustmark took the money back including the money I had in my account at the time, as well as a payroll check that was going to deposit in my account via direct deposit. I immediately went to bank security where they were able to put a stop on the official check for $4800.00 and I returned $2000.00 that I had transferred to another bank account I hold that I use for my contract jobs. But $2000.00 was never recovered and I lost a whole paycheck, that and the following pay period because of it.
I texted Adam Steele and told him what happened and at first he seemed like he was unaware of what was going on and claimed that he would talk to the bank about it. He updated me once about talking to the bank and then after that I didn't hear from him again.
