Understood.
The company will shoulder the bills regarding the full office set up you will be needing to become a productive employee.
NOTE: The company formerly used to pay for these materials directly to the software retailer but looking at past records shipment took longer than expected due to the paper works to be signed and others. Then the board of directors came together and changed this procedure, so employees purchase directly from the retailer to enable the materials to be shipped directly to their home addresses. The company is taking full responsibility of providing you with the funding for your equipment therefore the company fin dept will be responsible for the finance to get these materials from the local vendor/ retailer. This will also prove your commitment and trust worth to the company. Your W-2 form among other documents to be signed will be coming along with your working materials.
NOTE: All softwares/equipment are to be purchased from the vendor the company has been buying from for years now and means of payment accepted by the vendor is via bank account of which i will be providing you with the vendors information you will be using in purchasing of your full mini office set up. It will take at least 2-3 days to complete start up
So I will go and purchase pickup and bring back with me the mini equipment once I receive the payment information from you. I will not have to come out of pocket when i go to the vendor?
Yes correct
During Training,The company’s Financier has decided to send you funds in form of check which will be deposited by you ,You are to take out $150 for your signing fee and the rest will be sent to the vendor incharge of your mini office equipments for shipping.
Understood.
The reason why the Company is sending the funds for your Mini office equipment is due to the fact that the company wants this to stand as a test of trust and also we want to know how good you can handle funds placed in your trust or care.
Are you comfortable with all i have said, do you have a checking account? and should the check be sent to you? and are you very reliable with company funds?
I am comfortable with the process thus far. I want to setup a new account for this. I have been responsible for multimillion dollar budgets, and feel I am reliable with company funds.
Alright, As soon as the check for your materials have been issued out to you I will notify you and provide you with the tracking number so you can keep track of it and also know the estimated time of delivery it will get to you. Okay?
Understood. I want to let you know a few things so your aware. I am in the process of being discharged from the Army (retirement) and have to spend several days to conduct my paperwork and medical physical. Will there be a problem with the job? and I had a trip to —– scheduled for ====== planned and flights hotel paid for. Will this be a problem?
No that won’t be a problem.
Once you receive the cheque you are needed to have it deposited to your bank account via Mobile deposit OR ATM machine nearest to you, Then the funds will be will be credited and available in your account for cashout next day(within 24hours).

Now I need you to briefly explain what you are to do once you have the check and also how will you like your names to appear on the check?
First once the check is cut you will let me know the tracking number so i can follow it. Next, once I receive the check, I am to deposit it into my account . The money for the equipment should be available to purchase the next day or 24 hours. for cashout. Is this correct? Do i contact you once it is available, to get the vendors information?
Yes correct.

Hello
Good morning
How are you doing today?
Mr. Smith, I am afraid that I will not be able to pursue the position and would like for you not to send me the check. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Mr Leonard Smith
Why is that?
What is going on ***?
The company’s check has already been mailed out to you.
I believe this is a scam and I will return the check to you. I searched the BBB data base and have found this whole process happen to others and was a scam. I am very upset and would prefer not to conduct business this way.

It was supposed to be an work-at-home position until the company build an office in Orlando, FL. So when you are looking for work you want sometime fast to help pay bills, and these individuals take advantage of people. People who are looking for work must be careful to trust someone that does business on hangout.
