![]() ![]() To my surprise, I went through the entire interview process and they didn't ask for anything too personal and the grammar and punctuation was near flawless. Immediately had sketchy vibes from it, but I decided to entertain myself by just seeing where it went as long as I was careful not to give any personal information. Mike Burton who was representing Nielson Consumer LLC asking me to contact their HR Manager through Signal regarding a job application that I didn't even submit. If this is a scam, where is the benefit to them? Does it have something to do with that? They say they're going to send you a check, you cash it, and then they get irate because you cashed it? You have no proof that they sent you a check on purpose. What did they mean by that? OK, I know what "you're fucked" means, but how does that fuck me? Someone said this signal app also deletes sessions from your phone. What happens if they send you a check for equipment and you cash it? Someone said you're fucked. ![]() But if this company is in Europe, do I still need to submit an I9? That is the question. If they ask for my banking info before the I9, then nope. "You will get up to 500$ in working every day." Is that normal to put $ after 500? Anyway, maybe plausible. He wants me to download the signal app and he will have the hiring manager get in touch. My resume depicts me as a "Jack of all trades." Still plausible. He listed a bunch of openings from data entry to IT. Maybe he got my resume off Indeed? Dunno.

The only thing I am worried about is the other info I gave them such as Name, Address, Phone, and Email. My bank was able to remove the full amount that was on the deposited check. So now, my bank is working its magic and will give me a follow-up. The representative confirmed that it was a scam because "no job/employee will give you money and ask for it back or have you pay for office supplies." The representative was glad that I canceled the Zelle transaction and the amount came back. I called my bank and told them everything. She proceed with "I guess we have to wait the next day." Thankfully, I entered the email address wrong and I cancelled it right away and told her that there is now a hold. Once it was in my account, she asked me to Zelle the payment to a "private vendor" so they could start working on my order for the work laptop. They gave me a check for $2,200.25 via email and asked me to print it and deposit it into my account via the mobile app. ![]() They conducted an interview and everything through the Signal app. I knew it was too good to be true, but I fell for it since I was desperate for a job.
