Total money lost $50
Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
A person named "Jessica Aguilar" claiming to be a hiring supervisor from Anthem Inc, reached out to me via email, with a job offer/interview, she conducted an interview via Telegram. Shortly after completing interview, the HR department decided to give me an job opportunity. Next emailed me a job offer/contract letter, and to buy a itue card for the amount of $50.00 for my time tracker program, and that she was sending me a check to buy my office supplies, 2 days later I received a check from a company that doesn’t do any type of business with Anthem Inc, and now she wants me to deposit the check into my personal account and send her a picture of the deposit. Probably so they’ll have my account details and information.
Plus you will have a returned check charge

Type of a scam Healthcare/Medicaid/Medicare
I received a computerized call stating that they had good news for me. I called the number back and it stated that I was the winner of a $100 Walmart gift card. I then hung up the phone. The next day, Saturday, August 24th, the business called back, but just said to press "1"., they had my first and last name. I called Anthem to see if this was true, and they told me that they would notify me by mail about my Anthem account.
