I was contacted by a "Francis McGregor" about a remote home position where I would be receiving, storing, and shipping packages for the company. I filled out a W-9 form and gave them my social security number and personal address. I felt like it was a scam so I decided not to go any further, but I am worried they are going to do something with my SSN number.

They messaged me about a data entry clerk position from linkendin. Wanted me to do a test online (did not give any personal information.) Then messaged me the next day telling me that I have the job if I choose to accept and that they'd send me a check to get all the equipment that I needed for the job. The co-founder of the company that was supposedly supposed to hire me (heart genomics) was actually the co-found of a company called heart genetics.

I have been in search of a remote job. I recently received a message that stated “ Good day, I’m ******* ******* I'm contacting you in regards to your resume reviewed by our Company (CytImmune Sciences Inc) from Indeed. We’re excited to invite you to interview for the position of a Data Entry Analyst, working from home with a pay of $27 per hour. We would like to know if you’re Interested?” Since i had been on indeed these past few weeks i thought it was real, i looked up the company which was real as well. I then agrees and was sent this “ Thanks for your response. You‘ll be redirected to the HR manager for more information about the position and company. The job interview process will be conducted via Signal messenger which is free and easily attainable. Do you have Signal private messenger app?” After downloading the app I received this “ Great. You can now Search and begin a chat with the Interviewer on Signal private messenger saying “I’m ready for the interview”, by Using any of the details below. Name; ********* **** ****** ******* +1 323********* Let me know once you’ve sent a message, so I can provide you with an Interview code.” After receiving the code I went through an “interview process” where i was asked questions, told about the company, and they even used the companies website. I was then told at 8AM EST the following day that they would have my decision. That morning I woke up sent a message and was told I was given a Job offer. They then went over more specs of the company. I was also told that equipment would be paid for through a different vendor. What raise my red flags. What is that? They said because of the delay in their courier services the check will be sent through my email. I then asked how that will work and received no response

I applied for a job on indeed.com for a remote opportunity. Michael from xremote jobs then contacted me and schedule a zoom meeting. The meeting went well and as was set to start with the company for remote work May 1st.

May 2nd, I received the documents from xremote jobs such as a w9 form and a docusign contractor documents. The first paragraph asks for my banking information and mentions that it approves withdraws from my account in any errors which raised the first red flag.

Further investigation on this xremote jobs leads me to a Michael A White in Dania Beach Florida that has opened 6 other businesses within the past 6 months. The business address also points to a home address.

Attached is the contract that was sent through docusign. I believe this guy either targets employees other businesses posing as the BBB, which is the work that was called and also is mentioned in the contract.

I did a mobile deposit of the check but something didn’t feel right and I rushed to my bank and made them aware of the situation. They may have to put my account on hold because of it.

Someone posted on a military spouse page stating that positions were open at their workplace. They ended up getting me in touch with their Hiring manager to which I was interviewed via a series of questions on Microsoft Teams all in text form so no face-to-face and no audio calls. After my interview, they instructed me to wait 20 minutes so my interview could be reviewed by the "Head Department". After waiting the time limit I passed the interview and scored 94% out of 100%. The Hiring manager, Jacob Richardson, instructed me to monitor my email tomorrow as I would be receiving my offer letter. I would also be receiving an Apply macbook laptop as well as the funds to purchase the required software for the job. One thing to note is that Jacob Richardsons Microsoft Teams account came up as Keving Mclane. I am trying to make contact with PPG HR department but it is Saturday and they open at 0700 on Monday.

I was contacted via email from a posting on LinkedIn, I was the position was Supply Chain Logistics and that I could make $3500 every two weeks I was sent 1099 and W2 forms but they indicated not to include my SSN they said after 2 weeks they would provide me with a company credit card and essentially I would be purchasing items and mailing to various locations. For the initial 2 weeks I was told they would pay off my credit cards and then in turn I would purchase these products and that I'd receive an additional $1,000. I was suspicious but initially filled out some of the paperwork, where it began to get suspect is paying off my credit cards and me purchasing items I'd still be in the hole for the balance on the cards but I don't want to have any fraudulent charges on my credit report. Why do people do this?

Primex first contacted me through rext. I was then asked to download the telegram app and add the username (Anton Shammas). The interview was completed via that app. It was a normal interview process. After the interview I was informed that they found that I was a suitable fit. For the week after that they kept in contact. I was sent my employment package. This included paperwork to fill out for my direct deposit, employment acceptance, and code of conduct signage. I was then sent via UPS a check to deposit and use to purchase my working equipment. (online/work from home job) I was then asked to purchase a printer with part of the check and then to send certain amounts of the check via cashapp and zelle. The contacts given for cashapp were $karenFigeroa90 and $Melmescill4 aka Melissa Sandoval. For Zelle the contact given was [email protected] aka Karen Fabio. They then attempted to make me purchase Bitcoin and the wallet I was to send this to was (bc1q550g0nawt7xrcnn2kxj783le93s2wqgjr8hjl9) . At this point I became suspicious so I went by my bank. I was informed that it was in fact a scam.
