Total money lost $1,000
Type of a scam Employment
Initially, I was skeptical because the communication was very informal, but I rationalized it as being typical for a personal assistant role. Berard even sent me a selfie along with his driver's license, which showed his full name and address (Berard Michael Joseph Leon, 7818 Barrens Rd., Roanoke VA, ID number T28414689). The person in the image matched the person on the license.
My job duties were outlined as follows:
Donation management
Scheduling meetings
Booking travel and accommodations
Performing market research
Purchasing supplies
My first task was to send a donation to "Habitat for Humanity," with the contact person being Fantashia Wester (252-308-3405). Berard sent me a check for $1,200, which I deposited into my Capital One account. Once the funds cleared, I followed Berard's instructions and sent $1,000 to Fantashia via Zelle in two installments of $500 each, noting in the memo that it was Berard's donation. I kept $200 as payment for my services per Berard's instructions.
Shortly after, I began feeling uneasy about the position and decided to resign. I thought that was the end of it until today (07/2/24) when the $1,200 check was reversed from my account. In my original call to Capital One, I was informed that this could be due to the check being reported as lost or fraudulent. I attempted to recover the $1,000 from Fantashia, but she refused to return the money. Berard also refused to refund me when I contacted him at his supposed phone number (+1843-940-6245).
Using the service "PeopleFinders", I discovered that Fantashia lives at 183 Michele Dr., Athens, GA 30606, works at Recare, and her partner is Willie Wester or Webster (phone: (843) 730-2851). I reached out to Willie, since his area code matched Berard's supposed number, but he denied knowing Fantashia, despite evidence suggesting they are connected. Willie resides at 8755 Fairwind Dr., Apt J3, Charleston, SC 29406, and his email is [email protected].
