I googled the number and immediately ScamPulse.com came up with an open dispute. I am just adding another email as it seems to be different from the original post but the script is exactly the same verbatim.

I am looking for a job working remote, received a text advising they have reviewed my resume and that I would be a perfect fit. They asked that I download Microsoft Teams and communicate with a Patrick Vandewalle. So, I did, he proceeded to interview me in the teams chat and asked me to hold on and came back saying that they will hire me. The next morning, I received a letter of offer. I got back on teams chat with him and talked some more and signed the letter of offer, it all seemed ok, then he wanted me to use my money to download some software that I would need. I asked if they supply the computer or do I have to use mine, he said they will supply me with everything that I will need for this job, they will cut me a check, meanwhile, am I able to use my own money to get things started and I will get reimbursed. I told him no, out of a job and would prefer to wait on check. He again asked me to hold, he was going to check something with payroll, came back saying that payroll will email me a check and I can deposit via banking online. I was surprised, just red flags all over the place. Next step, he advised that they are affiliated with someone who I will send the money to, and they will have my computer delivered to me in 24hrs and once delivered the software will be email to me to download. Just found that strange. Wanted me to send $1,000 via cash app, well it failed, then he asked that I send via Zelle, just was not comfortable with this. I had to keep sending him screen shots of the money being deposited to my checking acct, screen shot of me sending to Zelle. I declined the job and told my back to deny the money transfer

I was texted by "Sarah Dean" claiming to be the Communications Manager at Bosch LLC, and she stated that she saw my resume on a major job website, and that it caught their attention. She stated different positions that were available, and that she wanted to offer me a "golden opportunity". She requested a response text if I wanted more info. I replied that I was interested in more info, as I have been recently looking for a new job, and the name sounded semi familiar. Once I responded, she stated the job was remote, and pay was $40/hr. This sounded way too good to be true, and considering there were multiple jobs available, it was also odd that she stated "the job pays $40 per hour". She asked me if I had zoom on my phone and what my zoom address was. I reluctantly reaponded with my email, and at that point I started looking up info regarding the "hiring manager" Oliver Simon, as the fact that his business email being oliversimonhr@gmail was super suspect. At that point I stopped communicating, and I deleted his zoom request.

I applied for a remote data entry clerk position on Linked In. Someone messaged me saying to send my resume to [email protected]. After that I got the exact message listed above about needing a PA, $900 a week, etc. It seemed like a great opportunity. I answered a few interview questions over email. He said I was hired and sent me a check. While waiting for the check, my spouse and I did research and discovered the scam.
