Scam Description
I was contacted by someone claiming to have gotten my information/resume from IowaWorks.gov, they offered me an interview for a job. I accepted the interview, was interviewed and then subsequentially hired. They gave me contact information and sent me hiring forms to fill out (job offer, direct deposit forms, W-4, I-9). After this information was received, they then tried to send me a check digitally from another company for ‘office supplies’, and assigned tasks like write a paper on ‘ways to attend to customers in an organization in order to ensure customer satisfaction’.
