I communicated with Garrett Moore via email for two weeks about a possible job opportunity. The more we communicated the more uncomfortable I was about the situation. I was referred to Mr. Moore via a LinkedIn job application that I completed for Tweit, Inc./ Jennifer Thompson. I was not able to locate a LinkedIn profile for Miss Thompson or a website for the company. She supposedly works for. Below I am pasting just one correspondence with Mr. Moore. I didn’t receive a certified which I have not touched nor opened.

Good Morning *********,

I am pleased to inform you that I have accepted your offer to work with me this week. Additionally, I have instructed my client to issue a payment to you. You can expect to receive a check via USPS either today or tomorrow, containing the following details, which will be your first assignment:

Transaction Details:

Amount: $2498.00

USPS Tracking Number: ********************** Please deposit the check into your bank account today and inform me once the funds are available to you.

In the meantime, I would like you to research evening business flight prices from Toronto to Singapore on March 18, returning to New York on March 25, as I will be attending a business conference there. Any airline is acceptable, but the seats must be business class, and departures should be in the evening.

Airports:

Toronto Pearson International Airport

Changi Airport

JFK

Please ensure that you check your email regularly to avoid missing any important correspondence. Also, kindly confirm your availability for March 27, as I would like to schedule a meeting with you upon my return. Lastly, you will receive your first payment of $1390 on March 18.

Thank you.

Garrett Moore

I saw a job offer on Linkedin for a remote position at a company called "Debt Solutions Today". Interview was extremely unprofessional and used a tactic of building himself up to make the job offer look good. Went on extreme tangents about his personal life, sex life, and became provocative about his sexual health. All of which have nothing to do with the job position. He kept the call going for 3 hours and shared all of his personal life and bragged along with said quote "I couldn't believe when my other employee said I needed to hire someone that I'm connected with and basically in a relationship with besides the sex". He also tried to give me dating advice about how men are horrible but he is a "good man". He also said the company is worth multimillions and lied about his number of employees. After this he tried to set up another interview in his office, but then casually mentions he is not available until the evening.. when the office is technically closed. I declined because of safety reasons and offered an alternative of meeting during his lunch break or in a public coffee shop or restaurant and his demeanor instantly changed and he retracted the job offer.

I was offered a job on WhatsApp to do data and they set me

Up through their site. First 3 days it was small amounts I put in and was able to withdraw but on day 4 much more was needed to continue and once they needed me to put 8000 more in is when I decided enough was enough. Looking online I realized I was being scammed.
