Type of a scam: Employment

On November 5, 2020, I applied for the position of Administrative Assistant at a company by the name of Duden Furnitures based out of Germany. I initially found their job posting on LinkedIn.com, and was redirected to ZipRecruiter.com, another job listing site, where I forwarded my resume to them. On November 6, I was contacted by "Karry Steinier, Head of HR Department ([email protected])" asking if I was still interested in the position. On November 9 at 9 AM, I received an email from ZipRecruiter that the job posting has been closed. I hadn’t responded to the previous email yet and decided to follow-up with them to see if the position was already filled, saying that I am still very much interested. On the following day on November 10, I was forwarded a job offer to sign before the interview. This seemed out of the ordinary but the email said the signature is a formality before the interview so I read the job offer, which seemed legit, and sent the signed copy back to them on November 12. I heard back from them the same day and was told that I will be contacted by their manager for an interview. On November 16 around 1 PM, I received a call from a number from Edmonton, Alberta (7809132852). When I picked up, a man called "Billy" from Duden Furnitures wanted to have an interview with me. I thought it was odd that they didn't schedule a time with me prior to the actual interview but proceeded with it. We talked for about 20 minutes and he said that he would be in touch with me shortly in regards to the application. Almost 2 weeks later on November 27, I received an email from “Karry” again saying that my application has been approved. The email contained an Employment Agreement Form and a TD1 Form that they asked to sign and return, along with a copy of my photo ID. I was ecstatic that I got the job, got overly excited and returned the signed forms along with a copy of my Ontario Photo ID on November 28. The email didn’t have the Job Offer Letter attached to it, and I only thought of re-reading it after sending back the forms. That’s when I realized that a part of the letter seemed shady where it said “Your company will present you with a debit card for payment operations (5-7 working days). During the probation period, you will be able to receive money in your bank account from our accountant”. It seemed strange that my personal bank account was to be involved in company transactions, and I forwarded the job offer to a friend of mine who is a recruiter. He helped me look into the matter and did some research to figure out that this is a scam. On their homepage (www.duden.ca), the links to Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest did not work nor the phone number listed on the website. All the job postings on multiple employment websites had disappeared as well. That’s when I realized I had given out my personal information – SIN number on the TD1 Form and the information on my Photo ID – to a scammer. At 10 AM on November 30, I received another email from “Karry” congratulating me for joining their team. It said that my direct head is Purchasing Manager “Hailey Errington ([email protected])” and to contact her to let her know when I can get started and that she will give me all the necessary documents for work. I have not responded to the last email and called the police to see if I can file a report but was told that can only happen if monetary loss has occurred, and was advised to avoid further contact with them. While I haven't lost any money as I didn't actually start working for them, and although it looks like their ulterior motive was to use me for their fake cheque scam rather than steal my personal information, I’m concerned it may be misused now that they have access to it. Furthermore, looking through the emails again, I noticed there was another name “Voss Moebel” written next to Karry Steinier’s name, which could only be found in the very first email she sent. I found out that there is an identical website under that name (www.vmoebel.ca) claiming to be a German business with offices in Canada (Quebec) as well as in the US (Nevada). Voss Moebel should be investigated alongside Duden.
