Type of a scam Employment
I received an email on my job emails at work, saying "if you’d like to make extra money while working as a Survey Agent, you’re paid to shop and evaluate businesses around you, payment varies between $550/$650 for each survey completed". So, I sent my contact information and was contacted by email and was sent a check for $1660 along with instructions to purchase BestBuy gift cards and a cashier’s check to Feeding America for $50.00. I deposited the check and it cleared on May 11th and it cleared on May 16th. I was still concerned and not trusting this so I called my bank to tell them all about this. They pulled the funds from my account. There were too many red flags, one red flag is enough!
