Scam Description
I was applying for a data entry job. When they contacted me told me they had reviewed my resume they thought I would be a great fit for their company. I was told to download the Google Chat app, login and talk with Desiree Crews. I did that. We went through a series of questions and she/he told me about the benefits and the hours. Seemed to be legitimate. She then told me to hold on that she was going to check with the HR department and when she came back online told me that I had been hired. They were going to send me a check so that I could buy the equipment that I need to do the work. Unfortunately I fell for the whole thing they sent me a check and then wanted a screenshot of where I deposited the check. I did all this and then realized it was a big scam. I called my bank and had them to put a stop on that check. They had their investigators look into this. I didn’t lose any money but the following week my Facebook messenger account was hacked and I can only believe it was these people Desiree Crews and Patrick Taylor (Financial Officer for the company) spoke with him regarding the check and deposit -could be 2 people or maybe just one person behind this scam. I hope that no one else will fall for anything like this. i know that I have learned my lesson
