Victim Location 70073
Total money lost $500
Type of a scam Employment
Got email from Indeed Jobs offering employment. I applied on "CareerBuilder Job Application" and was instructed to use a phone app from then on to communicate with company. Was told I had position with Mitsubishi Chemical Corp. and had to send 2 $250 gift cards (actually had to supply the activation codes). I was then sent 2 $7900 checks, which raised a red flag, so I took them to my bank but did not deposit or cash them. Realized I had made mistake, I contacted Internet Crime Complaint Center and filed complaint with them.
