Victim Location 06119
Type of a scam Employment
I responded to a Linked In Ad for administrative support. A person calling themselves Lee Gardner sent me a fedex with a check in it. He asked me to deposit the check into an account. Then once the check clears, he wanted me to send a money order to a third party claiming it is for an international delivery. I have deposited the check, but it has not cleared. I got a call today from the bank saying that it is a bogus check. Fortunately I did not yet send a money order, as I was waiting for the check to clear. I did a search on ScamPulse.com and it seems that one other person has submitted a claim on ScamPulse.com and their email is EXACTLY the email that I received.
Same as other one. Claims to offer $600 to help with business needs.
