I was approached on Facebook about a work at home job with this company. Upon getting in contact with Mr. Thomas the company HR Manager he told me that he will be sending me a check to my email, all I was to do is print it out and deposit it into my checking account using my mobile app. They sent me a check that was for $1,850. After the check was deposited he told me I had to cash app the funds to a vendor name Cheryl Garcia. This is where things fell apart, the cash app wouldn’t allow me to send the money and ultimately the checks bounced. It is all a scam and they get very angry in the process.
Wow, the exact thing happened to me. His “name” was Jerry Brogdon and he completed an interview immediately. The checks were not able to be deposited so they asked if they can do it as me instead and that I can change my log in once they were done. That’s when I knew something wasn’t right and sent them on their merry way. Very sad to see companies scam innocent people who are trying to make a decent living. NEVER send personal info to these people!
Like the ones before me I am looking for a job. I found a job on Snagajob.com, was contacted today from someone name John Clarkson offering me a job. I needed to contact him via Google Hangout and after going through the interview I started to get suspicious of the whole thing. If you are going to buy my equipment, why don’t you send it to me, why send me a check to cash and buy myself. I found this site and now getting ready to contact Snagajob.com and tell them they have fraudulent jobs listed on their site.
I just had “John Clarkson” email me as well, telling me to download something called Telegram so we could conduct an interview. It felt fishy so I’m glad I found this because you’ve proved my instinct right. I had also applied to the job through snagajob. On there it had listed the company name as Amazon but John Clarkson says he is from Sitel Group, which is a legitimate company but he obviously is a scammer.
