This scammer contacted me offering a job and attached a job agreement and form to fill out, trying to get my personal information and signature. They provided a fake website, with fake contact information and a fake work address. If you call the building of the location provided, they will tell you there is no suite 128 and that it is a scam (many people have called them asking the same thing)

Stupid me fell for this scam . The lady said I would be paid a lot of money per hour to work from home (until the office opened in "my city" next month. I worked a couple of days and the day after Christmas the lady I had been communicating with said she had a "special assignment" for me. She said I had to make a payment to the hostel that students would be staying at when they came to visit Calgary. She said their "company vendor" would be sending me $3000 via e-transfer and I would have to go and pay the hostel $2900 because I could keep $100 for "gas and lunch". When I refused to go to the coffee shop address she gave me, I asked for an email address to send the funds back to. She gave me [email protected] I told her that I was keeping what was owed to me for the hours I had worked and would send back $2450. She didn't like that but I did it anyway. Then I had a hold on my account because someone had claimed that I had fraudulently transferred money which is completely backwards. Luckily my bank knew I was being honest and released the hold. Please do not be as silly and gullible as I was, if you get an email from this company saying they are a student exchange program and you got an amazing (sounding) job DO NOT RESPOND! they are evil criminals.

I was initially contacted by a woman who called herself Caroline Dias, the email stated that the HR Dept. Reviewed my resume and wanted to offer me a position as Administrative Assistant. She said the office was in Winnipeg but they were opening an office "in your city" next month. They said I would be paid $27/hour and after 4 week probation it would be $32/hour. Looked kind of legit but I had my doubts since they did not want to interview me. That night , my fiance and I attempted to find this "company" online but couldn't find anything. The next day they emailed again but now there was a website listed as well. I stupidly accepted the position and she wanted me to work from home making power point presentations to describe Calgary . They were apparently a student exchange company and I was to create presentations to talk about the perks of living in Calgary. Then I asked if I could get paid for the days I had worked because it was xmas and I was broke. She said no the first time because the accountant was off that day. The following Monday I asked again about being paid, she responded by giving me a "special assignment" which was to receive an e-transfer for $3000 to pay for the hostel where students would be staying when they arrived to canada the following week. I accepted but had a bad feeling so I kept what was owed to me for pay and sent her back the rest of the funds. I told her that I wasn't comfortable and suspected criminal activity. She simply said *ok thank you" and I blocked her and deleted the telegram App that she asked me to download to communicate with her from. Thank goodness I didnt lose any money but I didn't want to be involved in a money laundering scam which I'm sure it was. I was just the middle man so they didn't get their hands dirty. Beware of this company everyone. How mean of people to do to honest people looking for work. ??
