Scam Description
I was applying for jobs on Job Seekers and i was contacted by this company to have an interview with them over Skype for an Administrative Assistant (Remote) and we went through the whole interview process and i was given the position. I was told that I would be working remotely, and I would receive a check to purchase a laptop and the required program that I needed in order to do the job as well as $250 for a sign on bonus. So, I called BBB to see if this was a legit company and the agent couldn’t find any information pertaining to the company and it was just too many red flags, like I never spoke to someone directly it was via text on Skype.
