STEER CLEAR FROM THIS COMPANY AND THIS INDIVIDUAL
I have been working with a Darin C Wright for the last 2.5 weeks. Went through the interview process, presented and signed offer for a position with Sutherland.
Darin sent out check for $2800. to purchase equipment for the position. Believe you are aware. It was sent to me instead of vendor which I thought to be odd. He later told me it was a ‘test’ to see if I could follow instructions.
The bank thought it was suspect and after over 3 days classified it as fraudulent.
Promising to rectify- Mr Wright did nothing and then requested I send moneygram to vendor with as much as I could afford. This was $300. He stated I would be reimbursed, also for all the time I spend dealing with this issue. I wired the money. He then came back and stated I had to wire another 250$ (which I did not have) He promised everything was to be reimbursed by a form he would send. I sent him all my bank statements which did not reflect the extra money to send.
Mr Wright did NOT send any forms and cut off all communications. I believe his actions were very deceitful and unethical and was literally scammed out of over $315 not to mention the hours worked for no pay.
I am putting together a plan for worst case (BBB report, internet reviews-glassdoor, indeed, etc, and making contact with leadership, etc)
I have attached the log script of the scammed conversation on hangouts
