Type of a scam Employment
The job would be all online with flexible hours at $29/hour ($15.05 for training period) with a maximum of 45 hours a week and can be paid via direct deposit or paycheck. They went through the procedure of telling me that in order to qualify I needed to be fluent in English, posses Identification (Drivers license or National ID), clear of criminal charges, type at least 30wpm, have a bank account accessible for direct deposit and must be 18 years or older. I confirmed I had all of those qualifications. i was explained what my job would consist of and how the starting process would be handled. I was asked a series of interview questions. All in which I responded to without giving away any personal information besides my name and address.I was asked about my dedication and moral and ethical stand. I was told to hold while my conversation and answers were forwarded to the HR department and then was told that I got the job as an Administrative Assistant and I start on the 12th of September.
I was told that the benefits that came along with the position was: Health, dental, life and AD&D Insurance, employee wellness and 401k plans. Paid time off and holidays with generous company discounts that counts after working for the company for 90 days. In order to perform my job from home I was in need of company supplies such as HPZ1 Workstation Computer(lots of specifics pertaining to the type of computer provided), all in one printer/scanner/fax machine, Norton Ghost, Microsoft Office XP, Headphones, an accounting program, time tracker and a data reader to keep track of my hours. In order for me to purchase these things they were sending me a check in the mail through FedEx that I was supposed to use only for the equipment I needed through vendors that they worked closely with. On top of that, HR was sending me documentation in the form of agreements and contract that I had to send and return. I did this as well. They asked for my email, age, sex, address and phone number, which I also provided.
I was told that for the first 2 weeks that I would be paid via check form but to start my position they were going to overnight me a check to go get set up. This morning around 8:15, I received a package from FedEx with a check and instructions attached. The check was for $2,650 made out to me from a company named Neu's. There was a letter of instructions attached to the check with information tied to a man name James Berges who claimed to be Payment Officer. I was to keep him informed on all things dealing with the money and I was then told to cash the check into my ATM and provide the deposit slip. It was about this time that I started getting weary, so I went into my bank instead of using the ATM and informed them of my suspicions. Together we called the company that was provided on the check and they confirmed that the check that was sent to me was fraudulent. I attached a copy of the information attached to the check. I do have all the paper work I have described saved on my computer and would be happy to provide the rest of the documentation.
After leaving the bank without depositing the check, my phone via text message started getting messages asking me if I had deposited the check yet. I did not respond. Then they tried to contact me through email with the same questions. I ignored them. The first thing I did was contact Neu's and alerted them that their business was being used in a scam. I will be sending them all of this information and documentation to help them protect their company as well. I then contacted the ScamPulse.com on the phone and let them know of the situation. Heartland is indeed a legitimate company who has been accredited through the ScamPulse.com since 2004. I told the representative through ScamPulse.com that I would file a scam report here and I would also contact Heartland and let them know of the situation. i have already been in touch with the REAL Heartland company and I will be sending them all the information and documentation as well. I hope in this attempt that the businesses are not harmed by this scam and the scammers may be crippled if not caught.
Thank you!
