One thing of note when I applied was that they asked for an alternative email address. After applying, I was told that I was accepted and the next day, was asked to deposit 2 checks each worth $1650. I was told that excluding the $350 I was to be paid that week, I should use the rest at a BitCoin ATM and send him a receipt of the transaction. (the email itself has be pasted below):
"Hello my_name,
How are you doing today? I am glad to let you know that our first task will begin this week as I will be having a presentation with my students so I want you to visit a bitcoin ATM for me. Your purpose is to buy some bitcoin (which can be purchased at any BITCOIN ATM) and the aim is to receive a receipt which I will need for my presentation. The purchase is paramount for my presentation as Bitcoin ATMS are not the same in how they handle limits, purchases as well as verification so all that information and much more are what’s needed to complete my slide. The process is quite simple, as long as you are able to locate a bitcoin ATM, you will be able to carry out the task as all instructions are stated on the ATM. However, I do not expect you to carry out any task with your personal funds so I shall be informing the account department to make payment out to you and it will cover for your weekly pay as well as additional funds to purchase the bitcoins at the ATM. You are to deposit the check into your account as soon as you receive it for funds to be Processed. You will be deducting your $350 weekly payment from the total payment you will be receiving to carry out your first task. I will need you to mail some letters for me as well before the week runs out. Meanwhile I will wait for you to confirm if you can locate a Bitcoin ATM around you before I will inform the account department to make payment to you so we can spring into action.
Sincerely,
Frank Garza
Senior investment Director Coinbase Global Inc.

After feeling something was wrong, I ended any further contact with Frank, then went to my local bank to have the checks bounced. I can also provides images of other text messages and email conversations with the person in question.
