Type of a scam Employment
I acted on an online job opportunity that I felt would be great for my disability and with decent pay! The pay didn’t seem to be too good to be true; but a pay that would get you out of a rut! So, I proceeded with the application process which asked for a selfie along with my driver’s license and PayPal info which was my email address. That was it! I had to buy a postal scale for boxes that I had to open and repack to take to the post office. They told me after I submitted my application; that it could take a week and a half or longer before I would start work. They said that I would be issued a manager that I would have to contact once the boxes were shipped to my house and for other issues or problems. So about two weeks pasted and not a word! So I emailed the guy and never heard anything since! I was looking forward to this job being that Social Security stopped my benefits for no reason. I have been without an income since 2015! And for these people to say that I had a job with their company made me feel thankful and secure to only get disappointed and bitter! I googled this companies’ name and found that it was stationed in the UK and they were a moving company! They didn’t seem to deal with the postal service. So it appears that these people are using another company name for their scheme! I emailed the UK company to get some kind of info or to warn them; but heard nothing from them either! Thanks!
