Report

I applied for an Audio Engineer (remote) job position on indeed.com. I was contacted via email by the "company" with a response for a job interview close to a week later. Everything seemed legitimate. The email was from the company name. The email address it came from was supposedly their talent scout who supplied an e-mail contact for Microsoft Teams for the interview. All contact information looked like legitimate company contact addresses. I was supplied multiple documents that described the position and had a very involved interview process. Everything I received from them was well presented with company logos, beautiful design, and professional wording. After a couple days after I was sent another email in the same manner offering me the position and contact for the HR manager. I was then given a very professionally designed confidential offer letter which I was to print, sign, and return. I was also supplied tax documentation to fill out. I was directed to a team lead for training. I kept a 40 hour a week schedule during the process for over a week. I was given specific assessments for my skill set and even was asked to write an article to provide knowledge that I was competent in my skills. I was notified that I would be responsible for an iPhone and iPad to connect with the company through their secure server. I was not told that it would be part of the training process. This was all listed in the previous documentation provided to me earlier. I struggled to find the funding for the devices, but was able to come up with it eventually. There was no pressure or rushing. It was all very compassionate and supportive conversation. In the mean time while I secured my devices we continued with other tasks to not fall behind in the training process though it had already happened slightly. All communication was very business like and very well spoken. Nothing that would give me any red flags. Having gone through the process I had been through I did have a couple doubts, but no "scam" would take that level of intensity. Plus, all the contact information seemed legitimate and when I had googled it I was brought to the company website. Everything was connected. Nothing seemed off. After I head been able to order my devices because they weren't readily available I was told I would be receiving funding from the company to reimburse costs for them and other items I would be receiving that second week. It was to be a direct deposit into my bank account which I had been supplied a very professional form for. I cannot stress how well it was all presented. I was supplied checks through company email to deposit via mobile deposit into my bank account and the rest would be via direct deposit in two to three days. The first two checks were accepted with no issues. I even received full funds from the first one. Everything was used to provide setup and purchase of what had been previously described to me in documentation and restated in conversation. Once I had my devices set up properly I would be able to connect via secure servers. I was asked to purchase Apple Gift cards for authorization of software on my apple devices. I did have a "red flag" moment when asked. I resisted at first and explained my position. Due to what I had already been provided for documentation, professional conversation, and that this job was a remote position I felt it was just overreaction and moved forward the next day. Due to covid restrictions, I was asked to ship my devices to an accredited software installer. I googled and verified the address before sending them. It all still seemed legitimate. I shipped out my devices though nervous about it. Then next morning after having deposited a third installment check I was notified by my bank that my deposits were fraudulent. I immediately stopped the shipment and had it returned. Thankfully I was able to do so. I had previously made an attempt to connect with my team lead via direct message on Facebook to verify their identity, but deleted the message due to feeling it was unprofessional. The morning the fraud was exposed I was able to find a direct line to the company via google searches to verify employment because I was told there must have been some mistake with the checks and it was being handled. I needed more answers and went directly to the company. I was able to contact them directly shortly after via phone and discovered I was not their employee. I have recently moved from the east coast to Tucson, AZ and I now have no bank account, no job, and I'm feeling extremely betrayed by this whole situation. I am taking the necessary steps to return my purchases and attempt to recover lost money. This has left me in a pretty bad spot in my life and getting out of this won't be easy. I only hope and pray that my story here will help someone else avoid what I have encountered. The scam cost me my personal info, banking info, address info, and more. I have already filed a report with the FTC and provided was much as possible to the actual company itself for their own protection in this matter.
