On 1/11/23, I received an email for a job opportunity to work for the Finance Manager as a remote Administrative Asst. She sent me a detailed job description, including rates of pay for the one month probationary period and the full time rate once training assignment was successfully completed. I signed a contract and provided other information as requested, such as account # and routing # for direct deposit. I was to report to her every morning and evening once my workday was finished. She supplied me with training assignments and we communicated daily. I was to be paid for the first month on 2/24/22.She greeted me every morning and acknowledged receipt of my email. My workday started at 9am PST. She would proceed with my daily assignment. I completed each task as asked and sent her receipts of the transactions. The last time we communicated was on 1/23/22. On 1/24/22, there was no deposit made so I reached out to her. She never replied and I have not heard from her since. I am attaching one of the two receipt copies because I am not able to upload both files. Each total $100. I have copies of the contract and many other supporting documents as well.

Alex Getschel reached out to me via email about a job opportunity, he sent me an employee contract and application form that I signed. The first two emails from him were very professional. Afterwards he sent me a employee verification form signed by him.

They had be doing data entry/personal assistant job. They sent me numerous personal addresses of individuals and phone numbers and a random banking info to put into Wise.com. There have been minimal phone calls, no video calls. Only conversation through email or messaging service.

They messaged me saying that they reviewed my application. Then they asked me to download Telegram and message the hiring manager (michaelhrm). They then proceeded to ask interview questions and told me I got the position. Afterwards, they said that I should check in tomorrow. When I realized that I was targeted by scammers and confronted them, they said they are cancelling my application.

I received an email from a Courtney Anderson about a job I did not remember applying for. I was told to download an app called Wire for a phone screening interview (text only) with a Mandy Skye. 2 days later, I was offered the job and sent documents for onboarding. This included a form for direct deposit. Immediately after the email, I got a phone call from "Courtney" saying to fill out the form and send it back, and they would not tell me more information about the job until I sent the forms back. The pay was incredibly good, 10 days pto, holidays off. Job was completely remote and they said they would need me to get a new phone for work but they would cover the cost. They also said all other equipment would be provided. When I called the number back, it was a google voice number.

sent me a text message first, then asked for my email and began messaging me on Google Chat,

- Colorado Springs, CO, USA

Received a text message on 3/17 from an Elizabeth Pearson on the recruitment team on Bio Health Pharmaceuticals after they viewed my resume on CareerBuilder and wanted to set up an interview. They then informed me that the interview would be conducted over the Wire Secure messenger app and to install "Wire" from the App Store. In the meantime, they also sent an email stating the interview would be over Skype and to download the Skype app along with the name of the person (Adams Wyman) would be conducting the interview. Rather than download any apps I used Skype through my web browser and found Mr. Wyman. I then started the chat. I have the chat conversation copied to a word document and at the time I felt it was odd that they interview would be over the chat function rather than using the camera. I've had many meetings and interviews on Zoom/Skype or other forms of digital meetups and they have always been "in-person" not on a chat. That was my first red flag.

The Interviewer claimed to be an Adams Wyman. I looked that name up as through as many avenues as I could find and I found an Adam Wyman affiliated with Bio Health Pharmaceutical but the first name was without the "s" and Adams was just an odd first name. Red Flag #2. By the end of the interview I was accepted for the position, given instructions that I would need particular software, etc. but that I would not be the one purchasing any equipment needed in order for me to do my job. Instead, they would be sending me a check overnight through FedEx and once received they would give me specific instructions as to what vendor to use. This was supposedly a "test of trust." And I would receive an official offer of employment letter as well as a W4 form. I was to sign the offer agreement and complete the W4 and send those back immediately (neither of those I have done)

I received the offer letter through email and that was from Mrs. Joan Gray, Head of Human Resources/Managing Director of Bio Health Pharmaceuticals (I looked her up through LinkedIn and she is head of HR but with a company called Radius Health - that company name did come up during the interview when I questioned that on one of their "benefits" it stated that Radius Health was an Equal Opportunity Employer, the response was that Radius Health was an affiliate that they also worked with, I let it go at the time).

The first FedEx was not received and I was notified by them that they would be sending another package out. That was received and the check was in the amount of $4990 with a "Fund Management Instructions" drafted by the AP/Financial Officer Mrs. Rena J. White. This letter was just printed on a blank sheet of paper when I would think something as important as this should be printed on some type of letterhead. Her "official email" is [email protected] (so far none of the email addresses are from biohealthpharmaceuticals.com or any variation of that such as biohealthpharma, etc.) She also supplied a phone number of 906-256-4084. Red flag #3-4, all of the numbers so far are in the US rather than Australia. Reasonable to think that they have offices in the US but still... Then the clincher was an "Important Notice: Disregard any message informing you that the payment manager has resigned or has left the payment department or giving you a new email to contact other than what you have above, any information of that nature is false. If eventually this letter is shredded or you did not respond to the email on this letter, NOTE: The payment will be returned on payment and you will be held responsible." HUGE RED FLAG AND FINAL STRAW.

I am now going to as many authorities as possible to report this.

The scammer contacted me the same way the first person (who reported this) had stated. Same email format, content, & everything. I had gotten the email yesterday March 23rd because I applied on the 22nd. I did my best to research the company, number & everything, but got very little information. I even tried searching for anyone who might've reported this already, hence why I was hesitant to report it myself first. I would lke to add that I got a voicemail from the same number 518-629-5030 at exactly 11:27am today, the 24th. The person claimed to be Rina Silverman & her voice sounded Indian or Middle Eastern. I wanted to give the company FBADept the benefit of the doubt but now I'm fairly certain this is a scam site for packages. Not trying to throw around allegations of any kind, but these types of companies might just be the reason why packages go "missing" in transit.

They first emailed as an hr recruiter for Amazon using this email [email protected]. They claim to be offering a job where you quality control packages that are shipped to you. They asked me to follow their website link and fill out my information. After giving my address and phone number, they said they would contact me for an interview. However what they are describing for the job sounds like a parcel mule scam and there is no information about this company or job listing anywhere. The website they provide had barely any information or specifics and there seems to be no connection to Amazon anywhere.

I was first contacted via text by a man for job offer. He then told me to download Signal app. From there I spoke with a woman that ask personal questions especially about my bank. After i passed the interview questions. She then sent me an email with a check to purchase equipment. The check was $3000. I did not cash the check due to how old this process was and how she pushy she was for to have it done within a couple of minutes. When I told her I could not do that she then asked if I could buy a prepaid debit card. I also did not do that. I called the customer support number from this companies website and they told me that this was a common scam that was being done under their name.

Sorry for the delayed response as I'm glad to inform you that your first assignment is now ready as promised even though it came a little bit late. It will deliver today or Monday and the FedEx/USPS .

The payment to be delivered includes your first week pay ($400) and the rest will be used for the purchase of some pre-designed art work for the art gallery. I'll send you the list of the pre-designed art work by Monday or Tuesday week as it's still in evaluation process in order to note and ascertain the necessary pre-designed art work needed. I'll be returning on the 10th of the April so we should be able to meet up for a proper interview two days later or whenever you are able to meet for interview after my arrival .

Once payment is received, proceed to your bank and have it DEPOSITED (deposit can be done via ATM or Bank Mobile App as well). The funds will be made available within 24 - 48 hours by your bank and email back as soon as you complete the deposit so that you can be fed with more details. I also want you to send me a copy of the deposit receipt to my email for my record/confirmation. Please write back as soon as possible to confirm you received my email and understand the instructions.

I'll be awaiting your swift response so do enjoy your day,

Best regards,

April Wilson

Scammer sent a fake check for 8,250 dollars, messaged family member through Indeed about working for their company of 40 people.

- Liberty, IN, USA

Received check to be a mystery shopper. Was asked to deposit a sent $2,450 check and then purchase $1,850 eBay cards and keep $500 for my service. I could also keep an extra $100 if done within 24 hours.

They approached me with a job offer, said they saw my resume online, asked me to apply and sign a contract before even interviewing me. They also asked for direct deposit info, as my first training assignment was to transfer me money, turn it into crypto currency, and use that to buy office supplies. They used the Telegram app instead of real phone numbers. Sent videos to prove their I.D. but when asked about the legitimacy of their company they got defensive and deflected. Looked up the website through a trusted source, found it was only registered this month, and had the address and phone number of known scammers.
