Below are the list of materials needed for this position since you'd be working from home: 4 in one (fax, scanner, copier and printer), Zebra ZM400 Bar-code printer and cards, 4 drawer cabinet and office desks, HP Pavilion HDX18-1180US 18.4-Inch Laptop (2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Quad Q9000 Processor, 4 GB RAM, 500 GB Hard Drive, Blu-ray Drive, Vista Premium) Peachtree Complete Accounting Software, CYMA IV for Windows Accounting Software, MYOB Business Essentials Accounting Software, QuickBooks Pro Accounting Software and a Time Tracker.
Are you familiar with any of these?

I am not familiar with most of those, I have used an older version of quickbooks.
Those are the working materials you'd be needing for this position. The company would provide you with a start up pay check for the purchase of these materials Note the check is strictly for the purchase of your working materials and will not be deducted from your future wages , you'd be making the purchase of all your working materials from a certified vendor we have been using for years now.Okay
I googled the laptop to see costs and found several reddit posts about a scam that essentially followed this exact layout verbatim. I also saw a couple reports of this scenario happening on this site. At this point I stopped contacting the representative and am reporting it.

They mention that due to logistic issues they are unable to send equipment, I would get a check from them to purchase the equipment from their supplier. Extremely sketchy and fake company. Or someone using their domain/company to try and scam others.
After I called them out as a scam, the guy blocked my contact. Be aware when job searching!

After I work with them for 16 weeks this equipment will be mine. However, all of the purchase order has to be under my name. They emailed me the check and asked if the funds had been posted on my account yet. Luckily, my bank flagged it suspicious, so I asked the recruiter to stop the fund. The recruiter never asks why or response to anything after that.

Then I was rated an 8.5/10 and offered the job. I then was educated on the extensive equipment I would need, and how they would supply it for me.
When I asked for documents and records, they refused.

My mentee is a first generation college student who just graduated and is looking for his first job. He is unsurprisingly adamant that "this must be a real job" because the prospect of making this much money this fast is so incredible. I obviously do not know that this is a scam but I am incredibly skeptical. And the idea that they would prey on him enrages me the likes of which I have never previously experienced. If there was ever a time for the ScamPulse.com to seek justice in this world, I feel like this might be that moment. I am happy to assist in any other way that may be helpful.

SUN PHARMA <[email protected]>.Later on, the person emailed me again from a different address: [email protected]
The person told me to download skype and sent me also 2 skype link that unfortunately, I opened it. Gave me information about the company and the job. Dr. sapna purohi asked how I want to ne payed {Direct deposit or check), I chose by check. He asked me again if I want tone paid weekly or every 2 weeks.
He said that the job was remote, asked me my full name and where I bank. because the company is not in United States, I asked him if he was in United States, He ignored my question first and he said that he was in United States.
I remembered that first time when I saw his email, It was late in the night so I downloaded Skype that night and the next, he called me at 7am, then we started to text on skype more than 2 hours even though he said that the interview won't take long. After he said that I was hired, he told me that I will receive a check to buy materials that I will need to work with.
He would call me any time and end the call before I answer it.
So I answered texts that he sent me around 5pm saying that I was expecting his email where he said that the check was sent via UPS.
Coming home in the night, I received an envelope inside was the check of $4550.00 and a letter (see the image). The check and envelope look very suspicious , I will never deposit something like that in my account, I heard stories...
The letter is from John Lewis, no emblem or logo of the business on the letter, my name is not even motioned and said to contact [email protected] and contact my supervisor employer hiring manager immediately. At this point, I just delete skype from my phone, I hope he doesn;t have access on my laptop when I opened links that he sent me.
I know he will try to contact me, I won't answer his emails again</[email protected]>

I did get the signal app and spoke with "Mrs.Iris Pendleton", who I'm pretty sure is a bot of some sort.
There were never any other points of contact, which was suspicious, but even more so after they sent me a long email about being hired, and towards the end there was a sentence that went like this: If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at .
The company SEC page does not list www.wostoneadvisorsltd.com as a website, although the company itself is listed as a part of EPF Inc.. I believe this is a highly developed scam that is using a real company's information.
Initially, there was a LinkedIn page associated with the website, but it has recently become "unavailable".
They did not try to get more information about my bank other than its name. But they did request that I buy work-from-home office supplies. They said I should receive a check tomorrow because the UPS had a delay yesterday. From the beginning, I had planned to have the check "checked" out by the bank. I will definitely be increasing the level of caution towards this check if it arrives.
This scam appears to be piggybacking off of a real company and information about its business practices. If anyone else receives this scam or other scams, I would recommend that you also report it on BBB because it may reach a wider audience of people who are looking into the company.
