After expressing my interest in the job, the recruiter informed me that I had been hired and that my first week's payment would be sent to me along with a list of equipment I needed to purchase. The email instructed me to deposit the check and then send most of the money to a company that would provide me with the necessary equipment.
However, I suspected that the job offer was a scam and did not respond to the email or provide any sensitive information to the recruiter. I am concerned that this job scam could be used to target others and would like to report it to the appropriate authorities to prevent further harm.

Leads Finance”. Believing it to be a genuine job offer, I replied thanking them and answering the questions. They immediately emailed me back, I received a response stating that they were offering me the job and I would be placed on a paid 2 week probation “ You would be placed on a paid 2-week probation in order for the management to access your work ethics, efficiency and salary increment consideration. You will be fully paid for the 2 weeks probation. You will be enrolled for top-of-the-line training that includes online training, and new hire class orientation. Testing your efficiency for the new week is to be in charge of the purchase and delivery of the company's branded materials and equipment for your orientation and workstation. A payment in the form of a Certified Company Check would be issued to you by the company's financial manager to take care of the expenses.” In that same email they asked me to “fill the following information below to enlist into the Company's Register for proper documentation, it is also required by the HR Department. Full Name, Address, Apt/Suite #, City, State, Zip Code, Cell number (For SMS)” they also stated that my “paperwork (USCIS Form I-9 and W-4 forms) will be sent to you via FedEx after the probation period.” Again I replied and filled out the information, still thinking it was a legitimate opportunity. Then I received a text asking “Can you get to Office Depot and purchase a Standard Check Refill (Business)? It's needed in order to print and deposit the certified pdf check which will be issued to you for your workstation and equipment. It cost about $15, send me a copy of the purchase receipt for records and reimbursement.”

Subject: Re: Transfer details
To: Express Services Procurement and Consulting <[email protected]>
Good afternoon,
I'm not comfortable with transferring funds. This is inappropriate and should be done by the billing or human resources department. I would prefer to be paid through Paypal ************************. Thank you!

I want to confirm that I'm available by phone from 10.00 am EST till
06pm EST Monday-Friday.
During the 2 weeks period we are going to start from simple PO (purchase
order). The funds for making purchases will be transferred to the
employee first, so that one can actively prepare for purchasing. You'll
purchase the required goods, package them and ship it out to the
comapny's warehouse. Your responsibilities will be to find the items; to
find a better vendor/supplier and complete shipping. As soon as the
items are found, you should drive and purchase them using Company's money.
We fully understand that you want to be sure that you will be paid for
your 2 weeks time and to take care about our employees families we pay
$1000 upfront to your salary pay. You can get them now or get a full
salary paycheck at the end of your 2 weeks.
We give you Authorized access to the company's checking account and
clear instruction how to get the money transferred from our account to
your card. You will be given our company's bank account number, routing
number and other details to withdraw the company's money and put them to
your credit card. Since, company gives you the money upfront to the PO
purchase, we made a deep background screening. Our company provides the
corporate credit card to work with but it will be in your hands in 15
days from your start because you have to complete the probationary
period and fulfill 8 orders as a minimum. Within these 15 days you
receive the money from the company's bank account to your personal
credit card. To work with a credit card you do not need to give us your
credit card number.
How it works: We clear current balance and you get that balance paid to
shop around with company's money . You will be buying goods quickly at
the same day and we do a next charges pay. There is no interest rate and
you do not spend your own money. To get this process started, you do NOT
give us your card details. Instead of that, we give you a company's bank
account # and routing #, and you use them to clear a certain $ amount
to get the company's money for shopping.
Here is the process one more time:
1) I give you the company's bank account number and routing number via email
2) you use the account to one of your charged credit card (by phone or
online)
3) you do the draw of certain $ amount from the company's account #
(could be the same as your balance is)
4) we wait 12-24 hours till the credit card company confirm the
available credit on your card
5) you start buying the goods from posted company's amount
You can start with one or few cards at the same time.
Please read over the attached file. It explains how the transaction
process works. Let me know if you do understand the process and ready
to proceed with a 1st transfer. You should simply choose a credit card
you would like to start. For example: I want to start with my Chase
credit card with credit line of $8,300 and the outstanding balance/bill
amount of $8,200.
If you get some questions about the process, please call me back .
You can always try this position during the beginning 2 weeks period
like a part time, and make a final decision after.
