Scam Description

This was not clear, but the job offer was:  Meta Advertising and Marketing Consultant.  Email below, was missing after Alessandra Brantley sent it; I copied and pasted it before:

(The identifiable information that she, or whomever has, is one of my email addresses)
This is the next email I received from Alessandra Brantley, after I had responded, that I was not interested. Notice, that her name is not on it:
Hello,
Actually, They just take $1 and that’s Refundable. Because they need information to Verify your Details. You have to use the Link Because these 3 Bureaus Are Connected with our Company. So We can Check your Criminal History and Background Records. Please Send a Screenshot once you Done.
Thank you!
__________________
When I googled her name, there are other scams using the same words, but sent from different names/emails.
I have also reported this to the FTC and LinkedIn. The position, may have been through Linkedin; I am not positive.
My LinkedIn Profile, has some personal information, most of my background, education and work experience.
I read of one person, doing the credit check one of these asked for, and she had $34.99 deducted from her bank account, and I do not know if this continued. And, obviously, if anyone sends $1, they can wipe you out of your accounts.
I have no idea what state she is operating from, or if she or whomever is in the United States. I don’t have a phone number, so I entered all zeros, to proceed with your process.
