Type of a scam Employment
I was told that I would be a Data Entry Clerk, would work from home at $35 an hour, $20 an hour while training for two weeks, 401(k), vacation, and could work 30-40 hours a week. I was then told that a check for "working materials" would be sent to me, and to be online at 8am the next morning.
The next day, I went online. We greeted each other and then I was given a tracking number. The HR Manager asked for me to check the status of the FedEx mailer. It was due to be delivered at 12pm. He sent me a message around 10am saying that the package had been delivered. This showed me that he was also tracking it.
I received a check for $4820 via FedEx Overnight, and was emailed an employment offer letter. He immediately began to rush me to go and deposit it. I was suspicious, so contacted my bank. The Rep did some checking and found that the routing number was not legit.
I told the "HR Manager" about the issue, and he still tried to get me to deposit the check. He gave no explanation for the issue, nor did he attempt to resolve it. He immediately wanted me to try making the deposit via my phone. He then asked if I could use my funds to purchase the "working materials" needed to work from home (Apple laptop, All-in-One Scanner, software, etc.). My start date was to be Wed. of next week, so he wanted me to be ready to work.
I told him that my bank would not accept the check, and that I was not going to use my funds, and wished to speak to his manager. He gave an excuse for why his manager was not available, and then said that I was not following his directives, and said that he was going to have to cut me off.
He then gave me a story about buying my equipment thru a "company certified vendor" and asked if I was familiar with Zelle (a fast way to send money). He quoted that $1000 was needed for the materials.
I finally cut to the quick:
The companies name is on none of this paperwork or the check. Large companies such as Temonos would use company letterhead, company checks, and ship using the companies heading on the packing slips. And, if you were from Temonos, you would have used a service such as WebEx to interview someone. So that you and the person being interviewed could see and speak to each other. This was not done, nor was the service used secure. If I am in error, please allow me to communicate with a manager or representative of Temenos.
I'm sorry, but I will have to bow out of this. There are too many red flags for what is supposed to be the world's #1 banking software company. You seem to be more interested in my depositing this check or my spending my own money to buy equipment and software. I was responsible for setting up meetings and remote interviews at my old job, and what I have seen so far is not professional, and what I would expect from a company such as Temenos or its representatives. This feels like a scam. Sorry to say.
This check does not even have a phone number on it. This not how a large company would present itself. I am suspicious. Make me feel comfortable here.
Also, the person who sent the FedEx package has a gmail account? A large successful company such as Temenos would have its employees use their corporate email account and not gmail.
After this, he vanished from the chat session.
I later noticed later that the offer letter came from [email protected], another flag........
