Scam Description
I had applied remote job on indeed. After few weeks, this company contacted me through email saying I got the job without any hiring process and interview. That was a first reg flag. However I communicated with this person who claimed to be HR Manager and told them I am interested for that position. Then He said his company will send me a check to purchase computer, mobile phone and printer to start my job which was another reg flag. And after I received the check, he instructed me to deposit the check into my bank a/c. This is how I encountered that I am being scammed.
