I’m looking for a job working from home. They texted me in regards to this job. The young man said I could meet with a Mr Adam nelson on telegram. He would explain the job in details. I downloaded the telegram he explained I would be a data entry representative for a pharmaceutical office. They would supply me with a check with every thing I needed to do the job. I also had a lil interview. The next day they sent me the on board papers I filled it out all my personal information. The next day I received a check for almost 5k which was suppose to get a laptop scanner printer and tracker. I was to deposit it into my banking account send them proof and then take out 150 for myself as a sign on bonus. Then go shopping on their website for these items. I took the check to my bank they said it was a fake check
