Total money lost $2,400
Type of a scam Employment
I received an email about making extra money by completing surveys online. They had mailed me a packet of instructions to complete with a cashiers check of $2400 through a Kentucky bank which cleared in 24 hours. The packet explained that I had 24 hours to complete the directions to do my shopping and keep $300 from the check and the remaining $2100 dollars went into Ebay cards in which they had said to purchase. The directions stated to take pictures for "proof of purchase" for the Ebay gift cards which was texted to them and mailed to a New York address. I took the money out of my bank account then 3 days later the check bounced/was returned and the Ebay cards were already redeemed.
