Type of a scam Employment
After responding to Amanda's email showing my interest, she sent me more details about the position (please refer to the attached file position_overview.pdf). The offer was a home based position and she said as soon as they look through the online application, one of their Human Resource managers will call me within 2 business days to conduct a brief interview. I submitted my application following the application link provided in the file and 2 days later November 5th 2020 a representative, a man with an Indian accent called me for a brief interview with basic questions.
The next day on November 6th 2020, Amanda sent me another email with an attached file containing the link to invite me to create an account in their back office system (https://backoffice.corecapitalassets.com/signup). She asked me, once I would have finished the creation of my back-office account to contact Kate Higgins using my personal message board. Kate Higgins ([email protected]) was my personal manager.
I was in contact with Kate exchanging emails in the back office system for training, instructions, tasks and guidance. I spoke over the phone with Brian Fuller (phone number 215-845-9455) 3 times, for procedures and tasks and requests. Brian was the Office Manager and indeed the only person I could talk to.
I was required as full time employee to do 4 business weeks + 2-4 days for final determination. I have never received a final contract.
During my training, I was asked to open a bank account for work and training purpose in order to withdraw in cash the money I will receive to purchase Bitcoin at specific ATM machine in my area, for clients investments, and send the Bitcoin to specific wallets.
I have done 3 small transactions of Bitcoin purchase with the money 3 people sent to my bank account using the service Zelle. The people are Nelson Petcher(sent $100), Lionel Rose Stredel Prosperi(sent $75), the third transaction was a wire transfer from Bank Of America industrial LLC(sent $455). I purchased in total Bitcoin worth $300 via 2 different online websites and 1 Bitcoin ATM.
After working my schedule from 9am to 5pm every day since November 9th, I have never received my salary, beside $200 as first part of my salary paid on December 3rd 2020 via transfer on my work bank account and $130 I received as bonuses for the tasks I have done. To reiterate, I worked over two months for Novenburg Estates, and have not received payment for hours worked to date!!
On December 9th 2020, Kate Sent me an email offering me a new opportunity. The opportunity was to become a Business Account Owner, in order to deal with corporate clients and larger investments amount from $30,000 to $90,000. Becoming Business Account Owner I would receive increase of salary rate From $27/her to $35/hour and bigger bonuses. Kate needed me to confirm my interest in the opportunity by confirming my personal information such as first and last name, correct mailing address and my SSN. She told me they needed my personal data for application filling and LLC registration.
Business Account Manager was an extension/upgrade of my existing position of Assistant Manager.
I declined the new offer and asked to work normally, the time to master all the contour of my work as Assistant Manager.
So I continued to work normally and on December 11th 2020, Kate told me to monitor my bank account for possible funds allocation.
I didn't receive any funds until December 14th 2020 she asked me again to monitor my bank account for 2 mini deposits from clients in order to verify my account in the system for future transactions.
The same day on December 14th 2020 Brian called me to require that I answer to Kate, and I told him I already did letting her know that I didn't receive any money. So Brian asked me to send Kate a screenshot of my bank account, what I did.
I continued to monitor my bank account every day, the transactions never showed up, until December 22nd when my online account access stopped working.
I called my bank Wells Fargo on December 23rd and I have been told my bank account was blocked for fraud suspicion. And I had to make an appointment and visit a branch to unblock my account, what I did on December 30th 2020.
I the meantime I sent numerous email to Kate via the system from December 21st 2020 to January 12th 2021 to inquire about my salary, my employment status, my account blocked by the bank, information about the origin the amount and the purpose of the wire transfer I received...
Kate never answered to all of my concerns. After a Google image search of Kate Higgins picture from her back office profile, it appeared that the picture corresponds to a different name Holly Hirshfield.
I came to the conclusion that I have been scammed and immediately reported my experience to the police who offered me a case number. This apparent scam is unusual as no money exchanged hands...YET. It began with them offering small amounts of money to invest and then I became suspicious after increased requests for more personal information that made me more vulnerable to being victimized.
