I was contacted by a hiring manager stating they reviewed my resume on LinkedIn. I do have a LinkedIn acct and have applied for that job. They had a zoom interview with me, they sent me a employment agreement stating what the position is and what the company offers. They then sent me a check in the mail for 3881.00 stating it was for working materials. I deposited the check. Thankfully my bank detected the scam and blocked my account. I did not give any banking information or social information to these people. They do have my name and address and phone number. I had done my research and the company name is real. The hiring manager They are impersonating is a real person on the website of the enverus company. The red flag was the check came from a auto repair shop in MA. When the company is out of Texas. I immediately called my bank. I will now be dealing with the financial crimes unit from my bank. I'm sure this will be a long process.

My husband received a letter asking him to send $25 cash to Beckett group, located in S Suburban, Il. It said he could make $18,000.00 in six weeks. The $25 covered the cost of the Beckett group mailing 200 copies of the same letter to a list of people he said he had. Then you send him back a portion and he will mail out 2500 and so on. It said it was guaranteed. Is this not a pyramid scam. It said that you would get a 4% rate of people that would do the same thing you are doing. If you wanted to earn more send $65.

I was approached with a job offer. James Anderson sent me the interview questions and said I was approved. After sending him a copy of my ID he then proceeds to ask me for my username and password for my bank. He said he needed to monitor the funds being put into my account to purchase their equipment. Once funds were deposited I could then change my bank information. Fortunately, I did not provide him anything but would like others to be aware.

Received a text saying they received my information from Indeed. Had an “interview” They offered me a work-from-home job starting at $30 an hour. The company was called Eleusis Ltd. Told me they would pay for any supplies needed and would do so by mailing a check. I received the check within two days for $3,880. The letter that came with the check sounded off. There were grammatical mistakes and a lot of different fonts being used. As well as the pages being numbered. I looked up the address where the check was from and it was a random house in California. The “bank” it came from was also not real and the Wells Fargo logo on the actual check was warped. Gave it a quick Google and most of the people on the letter were random names. Glad I didn’t deposit the check but up until I received the it everything seemed pretty legit.

They posted a job on Indeed and emailed me back the same day saying they wanted to interview me. For the interview, they interviewed me through this app called Signal. They told me I was hired and that they would be sending me a check to purchase my equipment and software for the company. I received the check and took it to my bank to verify if it was legit or not and it was counterfeit. These people need to be stopped! They made it seem so real! I chatted with someone going by the name Regina Anthony. The address of the company is saying it is out of NC but when you look up the address it’s for an apartment complex. When I did some more research it says the company has been around since 2013 so they may have been doing this for a while. She even provided benefit information that a job offers including a great pay such as $24.95/hr! I also asked if she could call me and she ignored my question and said she wouldn’t take too much of my time and went on to explain that I would be receiving the check and provided the tracking number.

Also contacted by text by Wendy Taylor and then redirected to interview with a Jesse Villiers. Standard interview but when offered the job I was quoted a pay rate of $30+ per hour for a remote Customer Service job.

I was a bit concerned by that. Then he said I will need specific computer equipment and they will send me a check. I would then be expected to buy the computer equipment.

That seemed very suspect but the interviewer did not address my concerns- just assured me it will happen soon.

I thought it over and it seemed too much like a scam. I declined the job. I did receive two emails from them about the job offer - but did not open these.

Scammer advertised a remote work from home job. I applied for the job, was "hired". Only correspondence was through telegram texting. They would call through this app however, when I would answer the call would drop. They stated in the job description that the co.pany would furnish all materials needed for the job. [ laptop,and software]

They asked for personal information to do a background check. So I gave them the information. They emailed me a check for 1200. And asked me to print it off and mobile deposit through the bank. I did as instructed. The company then asked for two payments made to Michael Guthrie in the amount of 600.00 each for shipping and installation of software on laptop. They also stated that the money would be reimbursed. After sending money via debit card The bank called and informed me that they had refused the check due to an issue with the routing number. This resulted in an overdraft of my account. I brought this to the company's attention. I stated that my pay would need to be direct deposit going forward due to the fact that the bank would no longer accept a check from this company again. I started asking questions and they told me that my materials had been shipped. Then the following day they contacted me again wanting more money. I asked them for the ETA on the package they then stated that Apple would have to have full payment before it would ship. I asked more questions and they stated that I would be receiving my pay via mail. I asked them more questions and their answer would differ every time . This is when I contacted the Real company and asked them of the hiring process and mafe them aware of what I was experiencing. They stated that they never ask for money and that the only correspondence was through phone calls, video calls ,and email. Never text. So I then contacted the FTC and filed a report. Put a credit freeze on my cards with one of the three credit Burroughs. The IRS was notified as well.

I got a text from someone named “John Chapman” working for “Eleusis Holdings Ltd.” offering a work at home job, they asked me to download the App called Wire to do an interview. We did a full interview and I got the job. Then they sent me a check to order supplies needed to work from home. I deposited the check, pulled out cash to send to their vendor via bitcoin, then that night the check bounced and I became responsible for the negative balance on my account.

I was contacted by phone number, 321-207-6133, through text by someone calling themselves, Jaime Gonzalez, stating they worked with Carelon. They told me to contact Mr. Roberto M. Nini via Skype for an interview. They said to only do chat for the interview. I downloaded Skype and contacted this person with email address, [email protected], on Skype. They did a very long interview process, made me hold for ten minutes while they said they discussed the interview with the HR team and then told me I was hired. They sent me a contract to the company that included the Carelon logo on it. Then they told me I needed to have certain types of software on my computer in order to work but that the company would pay for all of the software. They gave me a list of needed software and then told me that they would email me a check to deposit so that I could purchase the software through their vendor. The check did not go through right away and my bank placed a hold on it for 7 days. I told them this and they seemed in a rush for me to get the deposit, so that I could purchase the software and “begin working”. Then they sent me a smaller check for $400 because I told them the hold was possibly because of the amount of the check. I deposited this check as well and the same hold was placed on it. Then they asked me if I could cover the cost of the $2,100. I told them no. Later they asked if we could at least cover $500. I told them no. I told them I would contact my bank and ask them why the checks were being held that night and get back with them. I wanted to contact my bank anyway to inform them because I still was not sure if this was legitimate or a scam. I contacted my bank and spoke with someone who told me that the checks were good. Then I thought maybe this is really the company. So I contacted Roberto Nini back that night and told him that the bank said the checks would deposit in three days and that I would keep them updated. The next day, I received an email from capital one saying that I needed to call them. I looked on Carelon’s LinkedIn for an email address for an actual employee from their business and saw that their emails ended in, carelon.com. I double checked the email of the person I received the contract and checks from and their email address was [email protected]. So this was a purchased domain name made to look like Carelon. This is when I knew for sure this was a scam.

It was a work from home/remote opportunity via Facebook. I was asked to download Signal, which I have now learned is an untraceable app for messaging. They did a 12 question interview, which was vague. You could not contact anyone, everything was communicated with Signal. They asked for my name, phone number, picture of myself and then my driver's license. Then they asked for my bank, to make sure it coordinated with their payroll. Then, they asked for my log in and password information. We did not give that to them and stopped the communication.

I was offered a work from job from Outsy LLC located in Florida but they are a national company for customer service representatives. I did a zoom interview with someone but they didn’t have their camera on. I was also communicating with someone on telegram about the information about the job. I filled out paperwork for them as well via email. All the paperwork looks very professional and real that’s why I believed it was a real job. After I officially received the job, they started describing to me in “detail”, they used, about helping clients with cryptocurrency. Then asked if I ever used it myself. Told me I had to make an account to move forward and then would link my account to the corporate account. The account was somewhere in Oregon and I got suspicious so I unlinked the account because I did not want to be accused of fraud especially since the Robinhood account was MY name and not the company name. During the time they asked me to create my account they kept asking for screenshots of each time I finished filling something out via telegram.
