Total money lost $200
Type of a scam Employment
I was contacted via email about a work from home opportunity and I was given an online interview. Then I was hired after one day. So they sent me a check of $4850 so i can buy the supplies that were needed for the job. My bank held the check but allowed $200 to be avaliable. So I had to let the “company” know. They told me to get an iTunes card of $200 so the vendor can load money on it so they can get my supplies while the my check was on hold. So the check bounced and now I am in the hole $200 in my account. The “company” is not responding to me anymore.

I was contacted by email stating that the company Falck Group saw my resume online and was interested in interviewing me via messenger online. I was offered the job to work from home. They are going to send me my paperwork and a check via mail. The check is for me to purchase the software that is needed for me to do the job. I’m feeling skeptical and unsure about this company and job offer. This will be a dream job to work from home, but I can’t afford to be scammed.

Someone claiming to be with the Falck Group texted me about a job. They insisted upon an interview via instant messenger and immediately gave me the job. The vocabulary and grammar was incorrect most of the time. It seemed too good to be true and they said they would send me a check but that it would have a different company’s name on it.
