Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
Posted a ad offering my services looking for side work or any odds and end jobs, got contacted by a lady by the name of Lorri Amber who claims to work for a company called cipla limited, offering em employment for working at home. So played along hoping it was real since I needed the work, they expected me to download the phone app “hangouts” which is where the conducted the “interview “ after some time passed I was “hired” in and promised such things as good weekly pay, was told I would need office equipment and that they would loan said money to me to pay to a second or third party in which I would be receiving said equipment from. They started asking me for my bank info, my bank apps email and password for direct deposits. I felt it was odd so I told them I couldn’t access my account at that time and if there was any other means of payment. They told me they would email me a copy of the check and all I would have to do is get it printed out and do direct deposit from my phones bank app. I got the copy of the check and realized that the names of the check was from The bank of Crossville and under that it stated A branch of the First National bank of pileville which made me start to question it more considering pileville isn’t a county of TN. So I called the bank of crossville TN and haven them the cashier checks information and was told it’s a fraudulent check.
