Type of a scam Employment
Contacted me due to resume posted seeking employment. Began series of emails about the position and opportunity. Also received one international call from "Kristin Nilsen." As the scenario progressed I was offered a position and next contacted by "Espen Wagner" who was stated to be the Senior Project Manager I would report to. He then sent a series of emails about purchasing equipment through initial or "trial projects."
It was stated that the company would "credit" a major credit card of mine through their account and I would make the first 2 or 3 purchases this way until I received the company provided credit card. A lengthy PDF was sent about the use of my personal card(s). Something is and was amiss. I asked for certified funds or a wire transfer and then they stopped communicating. Please see the attached emails. The "HR Director"- Kristen sent 3 or 4 training modules that I was to study and complete. Meanwhile a list of equipment was to be provided me to source, purchase, and ship to their European locations. The opportunity stated they had 5 offices abroad and were to open 12 new US offices. The position was related to be in 3 phases – part-time, full-time, finally Senior Supply Manager.
