He asked if I had any credit card debts or hospital debts he said that the company would help pay them off. Then he sent me a big list of items that would be essential for the job and I asked if he was going to have them get delivered and he said no the money would be transferred via direct deposit and then I would be paying for them from their vendor and at that point it didn't make any sense. I also took screenshots of the conversation before he deleted the conversation

Fake job offer claiming to be a WFH job for Sutter Health paying $30 an hour. They sent the flier about the job I’m uploading and also the emails asking me to download Ring Central and chat with them for 50 minutes. I assume their end goal was to send me a check for me to buy the work from home equipment listed and then send a link from where to buy it and either they receive the product or money and then the check bounces.

The guy contacted our business through our ScamPulse.com profile saying he needed work done. I recognized pretty quickly that it was a scam. He wanted to send me money. When I let him know I knew he was trying to scam me, he threatened me in a very rude manner.

I was contacted by a recruiting agent via text message, they asked me to download Skype and message Nelson Smith Cox And gave me an interview code. He asked me interview questions and it all seemed pretty legitimate but the process was very quick and i was “hired” immediately. It seemed suspicious and after googling Apex Scam and Nelson Smith Cox i saw other people had been scammed. I went to Apex website directly and they said on their website they will not conduct interviews via message and only use email with the company name.

I was contacted via text message about a job offer working for Kenneth Martinez from Big Fish Payroll services. It was a job working from home. I had to purchase all the items in order to do the job. A printer, printer ink, printer paper, check paper, tape, glue and envelopes. I was promised a monthly salary and to be reimbursed for purchases made for the job. After a month and a week I was emailed a check for myself as payment. I didn't attempt to cash the check because I became suspicious. I ended all correspondence with the man and found out later the check I was given was fake.

I was hired as an Human Resource Assistant to begin 11/28/2022. The Chief Financial Advisor, Robert Broermann sent me a check for $4891.60 to send money orders to purchase equipment through their vendor for home office supplies. The check was deposited through my bank and then didn't clear. After it didn't clear, he informed me their was a stop on the check the day he wanted me to send out the money orders. I want an explanation for why this company is trying to steal my hard earned money with trying to get me to send out money orders before money has gone into my account and then to stop the check so that it never was accessible to me.

I was looking for internships through the Chegg internships website. I applied to multiple jobs and suddenly after a week, I got a message on my phone stating that I was scheduled for an interview with Janus capital group company for the intern role. I was super excited I was told that I would be interviewed by Tiphani Kreuger and Stacy Greenleaf via zoom...But I received just a zoom text message and was asked to fill in the answers for the set of questions and send them back within 30 mins. I completed it and sent it to them. They told me I got the job and that in order to start working I needed to

get a few materials they asked me to deposit a check worth 2000$ in the bank via the app and not visit the bank in person. I was so dumb and I did as they told me to do after 2 days they asked me to send around 1900$ to a computer dealer through Zelle and I made the transaction later I was told that I will be getting the devices needed to start the work at my residential address. After 3 days, I was again sent 3000$ check and was again asked to repeat the process. When I checked my chase bank balance they had debited 2000 $ from my account, on inquiry I came to know that I was scammed and it was a fake check. The person kept on asking me to transfer 2500 $ again via Zelle to the dealer and not worry about the previous check amount since the company will reimburse everything back. But I didn't do it, I went to the nearby police station and raised a complaint.

But even the police officials at west Bloomfield- Michigan did not help to find the culprit even though I provided all the details including email conversations, the Zelle ID of the scammer, and the phone number used. Instead, they closed the case stating that they won't be able to find the person. But the scammer is still using the same number and is active on telegram. But there is nobody to catch hold of him !!!

I submitted an application through indeed for a graphics design position at Procter and gamble. A Tracey Grabowski contacted me back about the job offer and done an email interview and offered a job and money to help start my home office. When I questioned about the check and where it came from I was told nothing else was available and my offer for a job had been taken away. I contacted Procter and gamble themselves and they said to contact you guys. I am very disappointed and hurt by this. I never put in my social security number.

On Sept 27, 2022, I joined Continental Post, 5301 Hamilton Blvd., #9, Theodore, AL 36582 (888) 565 5180, as an independent/remote "supply chain operator/manager" of their Shipping Department. The immediate supervisors were Cale West. Mngr, Shipping Dept. (251) 317 9854. [email protected]. The next supervisors are Karl Wilford. Suprvsr, Incoming Pkgs. (251) 317 9856. [email protected]. and Favour Tyson. Suprvsr, Pkgs & Shipping. (251) 317 9857. [email protected]. The dashboard they set up for me was at this URL in Gmail: https://dash-continental.com/user. On the above date, I complied with their request for me to take a picture of myself holding my OR Driver's License and send it to them in an email. I also gave them my physical address, email, and phone number. "Tasks" I did for them included picking up packages from my apartment manager's office, and receiving packages at my apartment that were dropped off by UPS. I also Picked up items, such as iPhones and Mac Books from two local Apple Stores. When I received a UPS or FedEx package, the task was to remove all labels from the box, take a picture of the contents, and put the new label on the box that was downloaded from the dashboard. I then shipped the package out to a recipient that was different than the one that was on the original label on the box. If I would have had a label printing printer, it would not have cost me anything except fuel for my car and the costs to have items boxed and shipping labels printed at the local UPS Store. Originally, I was told the pay was $2400 a month, paid after 30 days. There were bonuses I was told I would be given for driving out to various places where I would pick up an item, or items, have them boxed and shipped out with a new label. On 11/06/22, my salary and bonuses had reached $2400 and $1200, respectively. (In the past, working for OTHER COMPANIES --NOT CONTINENTAL POST--I had worked on projects where payment was to occur after the project was completed, whether that was for weeks or months.) So, it did not seem extraordinary that they said they'd pay me in 30-40 days for all the work I did --which they did not do.

I was initially emailed by [email protected]. I responded despite seeing the generic email address as well as the numerous spelling and grammatical errors within the email. They then sent me over to the other email address listed prior, [email protected]. I filled out a quick screening questionnaire that was entirely about my personality, work experience, as well as a few questions towards my definitions of words like "Quality" as jobs may do. I have yet to be asked for personally identifiable information however if I am I'm very cautious towards doing so. They stated that "the pay is $45 per hour and training is $25 per hour and will be getting payment weekly via check or direct deposit, depending on which you prefer." but also gave me inconsistent hours working anywhere between 20 hours and 40 hours a week. There were also questions on the questionnaire such as "do you prefer getting paid weekly or biweekly" that they immediately contradicted in the email that followed the questionnaire submission. The strangest thing of all of it is how quick they are to respond; it almost seems like it's just a bot on the other end, but there's too much information that is right on what I've been looking for to be a purely automated scam. They had my name as well as a job very similar to what I have been applying for on LinkedIn (Remote game design/development).
