I replied to an online post by an admin in a trusted facebook group for a work fro

home gig. She directed me to download the signal app and message this number You will undergo a text to text online interview with the company hiring agent now.

Here is the hiring agent contact :(402)-739-1625

Add the agent contact via the app

Send in your code:Aq8y

and proceed

Then Brandi Coates asked me a few questions, said I was hired. Asked for a copy of my ID and then a copy of my credit card so they could "top it up for equipment purchases". Thats when I knew it was a scam. The radial website has no work from home positions. I also messaged the original admin on facebook Tashia Pauley if her questions were normal. She was obviously in on it too because she said it was normal and I had nothing to worry about.

I saw a post on Facebook offering a job and to message if interested which I did. "She" informed me of what the job duties would be and asked if I was still interested. I was. "She" proceeded to give me a code and stated that I would be sent to a hiring manager and to give the code to the manager. "She" stated I would need to download the Telegram app as this is how management communicated with employees. I followed all instructions. A "hiring manager" responded and further explained job duties and asked for my qualifications as they pertained to the position. The "hiring manager" then proceeded to ask interview questions that seemed legitimate and relatable to the job position. I answered and then was told that my answers would be sent further up the chain to see if I'm approved for hiring. The "hiring manager" then returned to say that I was approved for hiring. I was informed that I would need to give the company access to my Facebook page as my first role would be "Facebook recruiting" and there were some groups the "team leader" that I would be working with would need to add. I was also informed that I would need to purchase, but would be reimbursed for, company approved programs and laptop that would not

only be used for my job duties, but also to track time for my pay. I was informed that I would have to make a $300 payment for all necessary materials via an Apple gift card. Assuming I would be receiving apple products, i.e. laptop, as they stated they would be sending it once the downloads were completed, I purchased the card and uploaded $300 and sent pictures of code to "her". Fortunately, gift card was damaged and some of the digits were missing. "She" seemed almost desperate and pushy wanting me to go get another card elsewhere. After speaking with Apple and having "her" be continuously persistent that I get the missing digit or another came, I came to the realization that I may have been scammed. I stopped communicating with the "hiring manager" at this point.

The next morning I received a call and texts from the "hiring manager" still trying to receive funds at which time I let "her" know that I knew this was a scam. "She" tried to deny it. However, once I realized "she" had changed my Facebook password I was very sure this was a scam. All communication with the exception of the I initial introduction to the "job" happened via the Telegram app. I have had no further contact with the "hiring manager" after I informed her of my belief that "she" was a scammer..

I applied for a job with a staffing company, and they offered me the job and sent me a check for my software I needed to start the job, I then deposited the check to my bank and now my bank account has been cleared out and has a fraud alert on it. Luckly my bank is trying to help me resolve the issue, but this company needs to be delt with, so another innocent person don't become a victim like me.

The scammer is posing as an online clothing brand, looking for models. They offer $5000 a month to post 1-4 pictures on your social media pages. There’s a $50-$200 “insurance/convenience fee” to pay before receiving any clothing. There are multiple counts of people sending their money and never hearing from the scammer again.

Brandon A. reached out to me on a freelancing platform Upwork for an online job. He asked me to accept an invitation on Skype for an interview with Eric Butruff. Eric asked me questions about my skills and work. He sent me a work contract. Later, Eric said that he was going to send me an e-check and I had to deposit it in my bank. Once the funds were available, I would have to send the money to the vendor. I deposited the money in my bank. The check was cleared and the funds were available. The next day Eric asked me to Zelle the money to the vendor Jessica Wesner (920-252-9006). I sent two payments of $500 and one payment of $1,720. The check which I had deposited in my bank was returned as a fake check. Eric also sent me another with the amount of $1,720 and wanted me to buy Apple Gift cards. He also asked me to send the money via Zelle to Anton Dakhtayar. Eric also wanted me to forward the $1,720 payment to the following bank. The wiring information in below.

I responded to a job ad on Facebook. The scammer deposited $1800 into my account for "equipment" after I refused to get Apple giftcards they hacked my bank account and forged a check from Master's Hand Christian School as if I wrote the check to myself. Remote deposited the check into my bank account. PNC Bank filed an affidavit and the check was returned to Redstone Federal Credit Union. RFCU is now saying that I am responsible for the $1800

I was contacted thru Zip Recruiter about a job-did a brief Microsoft Teams interview (which was weird since it was via chat) and then 48 hours was told I got the job under Human Resources. Was told orientation was two weeks and that I needed a projector and that the company would send me a Mac to get started-etc. I was then overnighted a check from Servicemaster Restore with an address of Servicemaster fire and water restoration by S$R (weird spelling) 1501 Railroad Street, Glendale, CA 91204.

Says check is issued by US BANK. I called US Bank to try and verify the account and they were unable to do so over the phone. I do not believe this is a real check but part of a scam where I am to deposit the check then purchase items.

The check came with a poorly written cut piece of paper that said: Hello and hope this Meets you well. The Enclosed check is for purchasing of the needed supplies to get started with the JOB. Email your full names to Mr John Walsen. As soon as the check is received for Authorization of Deposit before you attempt to deposit the check. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT TO REJECTION OF THE CHECK AT THE BANK.

SEND A COPY OF THE DEPOSIT SLIP TO THIS EMAIL ADDRESS

[email protected]

Please Ensure to follow all instruction carefully

Thank you

I found a remote job through Linkedin. I applied and received an offer for $25.00 starting out with 2 weeks of training then $57.00/hr after. All communication was through zoom/text through Office Space. After I asked for more information, so I could file my two weeks notice with my current employer, they kept putting everything off and told me they would send the official paperwork accepting the job offer. They said they would need me to deposit a check first, to buy all my work equipment. I was not comfortable giving my bank info to a company that I haven't signed any contract with. I didn't want to quit my job without having everything signed and documented. I decided to look up the phone number for the business under their name on Google. I called their HR dept. and they confirmed they have received multiple calls about a false job listing. Then I told the scammers I was not going to deposit any checks. I wanted answers to my questions and asked them to contact me via phone, which they never did.

I posted my resume on Indeed and Linkedin. I was contacted by email by Henry Hudson, HR at RVO Health to be a Data Analyst Assistant. I completed an employment application. He said I would need to purchase equipment through a third party. I've been going back and forth with Fatima. They emailed me an $1800 check, which I deposited into my checking account. Then on Monday I withdrew the money and wired the money to Cody Brantley in Oakland, California. My bank contacted me to say the check wasn't any good. I am making arrangements with them to pay back the money.

I applied to a job on LinkedIn as a part time remote bookkeeper. The company website was legitimate. The job wasn’t. Because I sent in my resume, they had my email address.

They sent me an email inviting me to interview for a part time remote bookkeeping job through Microsoft Teams. They used a different legitimate company for this job invitation and they impersonated an actual employee from the company that you could lookup on LinkedIn. I contacted the employee to find out if I was actually messaging him. He told me no, that it was a scam. I gave the employee the Microsoft Team messaging link.

Prior to this, I went through the interview and things didn’t add up. They asked me interview questions and then said that I had the job. They didn’t ask me to take a skills test. They didn’t ask for a second interview. The person sent me an email with an employee contract and a blank I-9 to fill out and sign. They asked me to send it back. I told them that I needed to think about it. Then the scammer told me to contact him back the next day at 9:00am. I never got back to them.
