Scam Description
This is the message that I received via text …(Alert From Appello Pharmaceuticals, inc. You made it to the Next step for the position of Remote customer Service Representative/Data Entry. You are required to download and set up Microsoft Teams. Add (Carmela McGowan) by using the link below: (https://teams.live.com/I/infite/FEAcTjTkz10ccjiEQE) and connect with her for your interview. Job ID: (APEL-24). Best of Luck ) I downloaded the app, communicated with this Carmela, they have my phone number, email address, home address, they even went so far as to say that they set up an email account for me with the company, sent me an e-check to cover cost of purchasing office equipment for the job. I have contacted my bank and alerted them to the situation. I really hoped this was legit…people should be ashamed of themselves.
