They got my information from Indeed and contacted me through email and Google Hangouts. They did fake job interviews and sent bad checks to me claiming it was was for work supplies. Indeed should do better all applications and resume information should be set to private and only can be seen to where you apply. I was robbed out of $3900. These people claimed to be with United Health Group. The email they used was [email protected] and [email protected] The money they had me transfer was to a Chase Bank Account

I was offered a position at Indeed.com as a staffing coordinator, the person stated it would pay $700 a week for the first 3 weeks while training and $1250 a week afterwards to be paid weekly. They stated I would be supplied a laptop and all the supplies. They provided me with a job description and questions and answer questionnaire at first, then a job application to be filled and a 35 question interview questionnaire to be completed via email, afterwards, I had to fill out the bank information for my direct deposit as well as sign a contract, after completing these documents, they stated that I had the job and they would deposit $850 to my account and then contact me to provide me information as to who I needed to contact to send the money to so that they can ship me the laptop and my supplies , they also sent me a link to do my fingerprinting and explained it was for access to the laptop so I can conduct my business. They stated this would be home based job with going to the office at least 3 to 4 weeks. The email used was not a company email as I noticed after the fact. The job was to be done via Career Builder which is one of Indeeds competitors.
