Dear, opeyemi.

Many thanks for the quick reply.

To achieve our goals, we intend to hire aspiring administrative assistants and other professionals specializing
in software testing, supporting clients, and doing market research.
We are glad to provide you with further information on what we are expecting and searching for.

Our company is focused on completing the following tasks (and we hope, you will help us get them done):

1. We expect you to carefully explore the top US-based digital asset exchanges and bitcoin ATM providers that offer
services of exchanging a virtual currency. We are also interested in finding global cryptocurrency exchanges licensed in the USA.
Such providers and exchanges may be built in our decentralized messenger and blockchain-based wallet with an intention
to facilitate investments and trading process. The following tasks will be included in your operational plan:

Testing cryptocurrency exchanges such as Google Pay, CashApp, Localbitcoins, Venmo, Kraken, etc.
Comparing them with each other by analyzing functionality, security and convenience
Consulting, supporting clients and helping them carry out operations

We also expect assistants to perform a variety of administrative and marketing tasks.
Our experienced employees will help you get the work done by providing you with the most important information and adequate training you need.

2. Here at Barco, LTD, your job responsibilities will revolve around:

Assisting and consulting current and new investors
Explaining clients how to exchange their money for Bitcoins and other digital assets
Advising on investments and most effective deposit methods

All new employees are asked to undertake a corporate training course, which will take them a month and will be free of charge.
During the training period, you will learn to complete your job tasks, trade digital assets and find out the differences between
cryptocurrency payment methods. This period is fully paid, and you will also get a bonus after having passed the training.
We proudly announce that our clients from the US are 100 % satisfied with domestic investments in cryptocurrencies we help them make,
because we provide them with faster and easier operations comparing to global market players from other countries.
We aim to make their investments even more convenient and secure, which is why we are to test several different payment methods and ways of
exchanging money for cryptocurrency in the USA, including such services as Zelle transfers, ACH, Venmo, Google Pay, CashApp, Wire transfer,
Quick pay and many more.
We plan to integrate some of them in our crypto wallet, so we count on you to assist investors, test the exchanges and find the best ones
for saving our clients’ time and money. During your training period, you will be able to try some transfer and payment methods without
spending a dollar. After completing each task, you will be asked to write a report. Depending on the results, we will choose the most
suitable methods and technologies that will be built in our system. By the end of the year, we will start selling Barco tokens,
so we expect you to become a pro in the near future.

and our team will support you and help understand the job’s requirements.

Dear, opeyemi.

Thank you for signing the contract.

We would like you to add Preston to you contacts. His cellphone number is +447549805442
It is linked to his WhatsApp account, so you have to download the app to communicate with Preston.
It is important because he will supervise and help you during your first month.

You can also send us your number, and he will add you to his contact list himself.
Please inform us of your availability to work from Monday to Friday.
We need to schedule daily transaction tests and keep track of time they take.
As soon as you are ready, we will start our 1-month training course.
We pay 100 % of salary for new employees undertaking the training period,
and you will also have a chance to get bonuses for completing additional tasks.
Since you are a new employee, you will be given the simplest tasks to understand our business concept,
and Preston will be there for you to help and answer your questions.
Your goal on the first month in a new job is to LEARN TO HELP CLIENTS MAKE INVESTMENTS AND EXCHANGE THEIR MONEY FOR DIFFERENT CRYPTOCURRENCIES.
Barco aims to become one of the market leaders, along with Viber, Telegram, and WhatsApp.
You will have to create accounts on several exchange platforms, such as Zelle, ACH, Cashapp, Wire, etc.,
to make online payments and try different payment methods that we are going to use for exchanging money for our company’s tokens.
That is why you will be asked to write reports, and we will analyze the results of your work.

Here is the list of work instructions design to ensure your working process is effective and consistent:

1. You need to create accounts on the following platforms:

• Localbitcoins.com
• CashApp
• Venmo
• Paxful

In the near future, you are expected to discover new apps, services and website that are used in the USA.
The platforms listed above are free to use and essential for completing your tasks.
Using them, you will make test transactions to be able to consult your future customers as well as to write reports.
We hope that you will soon become an expert which is ready to develop new investment strategies and answer clients’ questions
about Bitcoin ATMs and cryptocurrency exchanges.

2. You will be asked to create an account on Zellepay.com. Zelle is one of our potential business partners,
so we plan to build their advance payment system in Barco messenger to help our users make the fastest and cheapest investments.
Our aim is to help Zelle improve, which is why you will test the APS not just for us but for them, too.
Their app is free and easy to download, so it will not be a problem to you to use it, test it and write a report.
In the end of your training period, you are expected to become an expert in everything about Zelle and to be able to help our
clients meet their investment goals by using it.

3. We have appointed Preston to be your personal assistant. He is an experienced professional which knows all about physical
and digital cryptocurrency exchanges. Preston has been working in this industry for many years, which is why he has all the skills
and knowledge needed to work with online exchanges and investors, help other employees and assist clients.
Barco has lots in common with WhatsApp messenger, but our app is even better – it has a built-in crypto wallet for storing different
types of digital assets at the same time. So, during your training period you will be asked to communicate with Preston using WhatsApp.
Please remember to download it on your phone and add him to your contacts. You can also send us your phone number linked to this messenger,
and Preston will add you himself. His number is +447549805442

I am 100 % percent sure you are going to make a new PROFESSIONAL for our US and Canadian branches, A REAL EXPERT in cryptocurrency exchanges,
and A PERFECT ASSISTANT for the most important customers.

We are glad to have you on our team.
Await your reply.

Sincerely Yours,
John K. Robinson

The company is Barco-Chat. They advertise that they are an "instant messaging/social app allowing access to a blockchain community." Part of that includes working with cryptocurrency.

I saw a job posting online to be a part-time administrative assistant. I applied and received a reply from someone identifying as John K. Robinson, he said he was the hiring manager. After going back and forth via email, I was told that I got the job and was sent, via email, an employee contract to read and sign. Considering that it's a very strange time in the world (Covid, etc.), I did not think it was odd or suspicious that a company would be operating this way (especially since the job was listed as remote). Upon starting my first day, I was assigned a trainer named Preston Diop (i didn't find out his real last name until later) and told that we would be communicating via Whatsapp. He said that he was a trainer contracted by the company, he lived in London, and he would be my contact and support during the 1 month training period. The first training exercise was to download a variety of ecommerce apps and apps that allowed you to exchange/move cryptocurrency. Preston said that he was going to transfer funds via one of the apps for training purposes. I would be learning how to exchange USD to cryptocurrency, so I could advise clients on the process in the future. Without requesting permission or notifying me beforehand, Preston sent a significant amount of money via Zelle to me (in my personal account). I asked Preston if it was normal that a personal account would be used for training purposes and he assured me that it was totally fine. I felt very uncomfortable with the fact that a significant amount of money was sent via Zelle from a company and person I didn't know. I decided to do more research and found that Preston Diop was listed on a cryptocurrency scam website as as a blackmail scammer---he was listed multiple times for the same thing. I determined that it wasn't a good idea to continue with the "training" or the position, so I said I was going to return the funds to the original sender. Since Zelle is built in to the Chase Mobile App, you have no choice as to whether you can accept or deny a deposit--unlike Venmo that has a second step before funds are moved to your account. Once I realized this was likely a bigger scamming operation, I contacted Chase and informed them that I was likely dealing with a scammer and I wanted to know if they had the ability to return funds via Zelle. I didn't want anything to do with the money, I just wanted it out of my account so I could cut off contact with these people. Chase informed me that they did not have the capabilities to return the funds and I was told to ask the original sender where to return the funds to--they said there was nothing they could for me. I did as instructed by Chase and contacted the sender and asked where to return the funds. Email information was provided and I started sending the funds back. Unbeknownst to me, the scammer filed a fraud claim against me with their bank over the funds they had sent me and that I had refunded. My account was frozen and locked, I was put under investigation by Chase, Chase was even less willing to assist me with this issue despite reporting it well within 24 hours, I've had to file 3 separate claims with Chase just to get them to investigate the situation, and since I no longer had the available funds in my account (money was returned to sender), Chase stated I'm responsible for the total amount and debited my account. When I asked Preston why a fraud claim was filed, he blocked me on Whatsapp. I have not had contact with them since then.

This is a scam of the highest violation. Not only was I left to completely fend for myself by my financial institution that prides itself on "fraud protection all day, everyday", but the scammer got away with it. By preying on desperate people just trying to earn an honest living during uncertain times, they are able to get ahead with their scams and leave the victim to pick up the pieces. If you see a job listing for any position at Barco-Chat, it's FAKE. DO NOT APPLY. They will use you, violate your bank account, and leave you even more desperate than before.

Below is the email I received from John K. Robinson upon my hiring:

sorry dear

- Portland, OR, USA

I received advertisement about a job opening at Barco-chat and I applied for administrative assistant position through Barco-chat website. After receiving job offer, I signed employment agreement with them and start 1 month training.They asked me download WhatsApp to talk with Preston who is my trainer. Preston requires me to link my bank with Zelle,Cash App and Venom to practice transfer money so I can help the clients after passing the training period. They transferred money to my bank account through Zelle and ask me to transfer money to Cash App or cash the money out to buy Bitcoin and send all the Bitcoin to their wallet addresses which they provided for me. I did 4 transactions for them. At the Bitcoin ATM, when I need to pass registration process to buy more than $900 Bitcoin value, Preston instructed me tell the investigator that I bought Bitcoin for my personal investment to make the process faster. After I successfully used cash to buy Bitcoins and sent for them, he asked me for my bank account information to make wire transfer for more practices. I feel something wrong with my job because no legal company uses employee bank account to process the money and tell the employee said for " personal investment ". I researched online to see if anybody in the same situation as me and figure out many scam jobs out there have similar the concepts. I called the bank and they said that I definitely got a job scam and those money I cashed and transferred completely gone. The company probably stole other people money and transferred to my account to make clean money for them. The money transferred to my account will soon be reversed and I would loss that amount.

sames!
