Thank you for your application to the posting, your resume was received and reviewed. the position is still available, although with a slightly different role as a virtual/personal assistant. Please find the job description below:

My name is Jonathan Fernandez, 56 years old with a young body and mind. I am an entrepreneur, human capital investor, and philanthropist with established business relationships worldwide.

Once you receive the funds, you will purchase children gift items (which will be listed for you) at any nearby shop/store in your area; and send them to a Foster/Orphanage home (which I will provide you with the information), this will serve as your first task as my new assistant prior to my arrival and other upcoming tasks. but you will certainly receive your first pay ($700) for the start-up week with the funds you'll receive.

A man named Robert Cooper approached me via email, with a job offer for Pro-Tech Solutions. He set up a "phone interview" with an "HR worker." The following day he emailed me saying I was approved for the job. He then sent me an email with the log in link and information for a work panel. Everything seemed so legit. On the work panel I was prompted to upload a signed job offer letter, I-9, and a scanned copy of my I.d. He set up 4 days of training, each day doing different task. The first day was research on 10 competor tech company's, the 2nd day was an email response to a specific client with the log in information for a "company email", 3rd was a phone call to a specific client, 4th was a customer service response, and the 5th day he emailed me with a different job offer as management.

Now I have my license and my social number out . I don’t know what this person is going to do with my info.

Please I need help.

I'm always on top of my stuff but this one was good. I did not know it was that easy to fake a whole agency and to waste time fishing documents.
