Then, we chatted on Google:
Good morning Sheri. I am Edward Hanchett, The Hiring manager for ARISE VIRTUAL SOLUTIONS Inc. Please introduce yourself and indicate your location?
I did and gave some background about me.
The job briefing and interview process will be done via Google Chat instant messaging.
Note: During this process, your timely response will be appreciated. Are you ready now? I advise you to read with care. Just follow the briefing and let me know when you are done reading every line. You will be allowed to ask questions later. With each line just respond with an Okay. He then goes into job description of the job title you pick. There were 3 job titles: data entry clerk, administrative assistant or customer service. I chose data entry.
DATA ENTRY CLERK
Main duties and responsibilities are to enter data into computers. This data may be text and numbers. It may relate to customers, suppliers and manufacturers and may be scientific, technical, financial or sales-based. The computer system dictates the way the worker enters the data. The system requires data to be in a specific format so it can produce material such as invoices and analytical reports. Can you handle that? Note: You will be trained by one of the company supervisors that will be attached to you On-line. My supervisors will reach you via email or phone for your position offer-documents and your working papers. Also, they will put you through our company's guidelines under US Human Resources Laws and Regulations if you are hired. The pay is $28 per hour, training is $19 per hour biweekly or weekly via direct deposit or paycheck, the maximum hour you can work a week is 40 hours. You can do 20/30 hours weekly for part time or 30/40 hours weekly for full time. And you will be allowed to choose your working hours yourself for work convenience. You going to work from Monday through Friday and overtime is allowed during the weekend if interested.
BENEFITS : ARISE benefits for eligible workers include: Health, Dental, Life and AD&D Insurance, Employee Wellness. Paid Time Off and Holidays with Generous Company Discounts. That counts after working 90days with the Company. Will you like to be paid Bi weekly or weekly, Direct deposit or paycheck and what bank do you affiliate with?
I said: Weekly and Direct Deposit to my cash app acct. He asked again: What bank do you affiliated with? I told him the bank name only.
Do you have any questions so far before we proceed with the interview? I asked 2 or 3 questions. He answered vaguely. The company’s will provide all the working materials and ship them to your home address if you are hired! We are going mainly to the interview questions and answers section. As soon as you are done answering any question, you are to write DONE. Are you ready now? He then asked for my full name and mailing address. I gave it to him bc I thought, at that time, he was legit. He continued with few more common interview questions which I answered.
You have done well so far and you seem like a perfect fit for this position. I need you to hold on online because i need to forward our conversation to the Head Dept. to enable them see if you are committed and good for this job. Congratulations, the company has decided to give you a chance to work for the company and would like to see your diligence, Charisma, Commitment to this job.
You will be getting your paperwork. An HR document during your orientation and training from your supervisor, you are to fill, sign and send back to us. Also your job offer letter will be ready tomorrow morning and sent to your email. Then I had a couple more questions. Is the job on contract-basis or have taxes withheld? He answered: No on contract
It’s permanent position.
I asked about getting a company handbook. He said I would. Then, I asked
What are the internet dowload/upload speed requirements? He replied,
It will come along with your work materials. The company will provide you with everything needed for this job and it will be delivered to your address. Once your complete working materials are delivered, your training starts immediately. And you will receive video call during your training process for better understanding of your job.
It’s will be stated in the paperwork that will come along with your work materials.
Okay, so I will have a little time to become compliant with the requirements?
Sure. You will receive a check from the company which will be used to purchase everything needed and you will also be instructed on everything you have to do.
My bank will hold the funds of an out-of-state check for 5-7 days due to possible fraud. This was when I started to suspect that this was a scam.
No problem.
I understand that and this is real okay! NOTE: All Equipment's and software's are to be purchased from the company's accredited vendor and that is because all materials will be Customized in your names with the Company Logo and shipped to you via FedEx. And I will instruct you how to go about the purchase. Is that clear? That will be all for today. Be prompt online at 8am tomorrow morning for the delivery details regarding your complete working materials. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your day!
Next day 11/15/22:
After pleasantries, Your job offer letter has been confirmed and will be ready before the end of today. What email would you prefer it’s sent to? I told him. A few minutes later. Sent! Confirm you receive it and get back to me now please. I did and told him that I would review and if ok, will fill, sign and return to Ms Caitlin Paylor. She's the one who sent the employment offer to me.
Received! The check to purchase your work materials has already been mailed out and you should receive it within 1/2 business working days. I will keep you posted with the tracking number immediately I got it on my desk. Understood?
That will be all for now till you receive the check for further instructions. Hope you have a good day!
The next day 11/16/22, he sent me the FEDEX tracking number for the check. Then he started having me track the envelop. It didn't arrive, so the next day 11/17/22 he had me call FEDEX. It had been returned to Ms Payton as "undeliverable."
The check will be sent to you through email in PDF copy (back and front ) because we are trying to avoid delay encountered in mail delivery to home addresses. All you have to do when you receive the check in your email is to print out Both the front and back of the check, endorse the check by signing at the back then process the deposit with your bank mobile app. The funds will be available within 24 hour or less so you can start purchasing your work materials. I believe you can handle that?
Yes, however, my bank is very cautious about mobile deposits and will hold the check 5-7 business days no matter what, especially, since I've had some fraudulent checks sent to me in the past.
Oh I see. Let me notify finance department for another means of funds availability. Hold on please!
Wire transfer and sending/transferring to company direct are the only two ways left. I won't give you my bank info without knowing for sure that this is truly legit.
Give me a moment.
That's when I said: It's been almost 2 hrs. Is this job legit or not. Please don't waste my time! I am unemployed and need to find a legitimate job.
Let me notify finance department as I don’t take decisions on my own.
I started questioning about his location, his finance dept location vs the location where the envelop w/check was coming from (CA). He started telling me that the company had branches all over, but finance dept was in Florida like him.
Friday morning 11/18/22
I sent him a chat that the check was not going to make it in time for training to begin on Monday, 11/21/22.
A new check will be mailed out and you have to be patient please
Monday morning 11/21/22
I chatted Good morning! I've just been reading reviews this morning. They weren't good. Has Arise gotten new management in the last few months to a year? He ignored my question and me for rest of day.
Tuesday 11/22/22
He chatted The check with deposit instructions has been sent to your email. Please, confirm you receive it and get back to me now please.
Received the check and instructions. Whose acct is this check written on? It’s not written on an Arise Virtual Solutions' acct.
He said: Written from Carl Lewis, the sub contract company under Arise you will work online with! Are you done with the deposit now? I told him: No.
I won't send for deposit until my bank verifies it's legit.
I called my bank and forwarded the emailed check to the fraud dept. She got back to me in minutes saying the check was more than likely fraud.
End of scam.
It pulled up a website that has links that don’t work.

Another odd request, but I proceeded, asked what bank I used and that was a red flag.
