was texted asking if i would be interested in job with kaplan, did a text interview over the skype app. skype name is live:.cid.78a5f8391bob8958, some misspellings of words and misuse of grammar. i attempted to contact kaplan (which is a legit business,) but was told they could not release information unless authorized by the employeewhen i googled his image, he came up as a plastic surgeon. i queried him about that, he said he worked in wyoming prior to being hired by kaplan, i tried to look up his physican verification, and it showed any clark wayne as being licensed as a physician in wyoming, past or present, i told him i wanted proof he was employed by kaplan and have not heard back from him. he had a long list of office equipment i would need to purchase thru an approved vendor and would then be receiving funds from the "company's finance insurance department" to only be used with a vendor he refers.
