Total money lost $900

Type of a scam Employment

I initially received an email offering me a job at Mckesson from a man allegedly named Josefa Cisneros Montana ([email protected]) saying that I should reply with my resume. I sent the resume and then I was contacted by text by a man allegedly named Marshall Scott (3157912371 and 6603120698), who claimed to be an HR supervisor at Mckesson. He sent a check by mail to my dorm and told me to let him know when I received it so that I would get further instructions. It was a cashier’s check for $2,150 that appeared to be from tucson federal credit union. He then claimed that that $1800 of the check should be sent through Western Union to a supplier. Since my account was new, the check was put on hold for five days so I could not use it immediately. He then instructed my to use $900 of my own funds one day and the check would be reimbursement for the rest. The next day, he claimed the supplier needed another $900 and that that could be solved through giving him the code for nine $100 iTunes gift cards. After that had happen, I found out from Western Union that the address attached to the transfer was involved in fraud and that the funds would be refunded to my account. I also was able to find out through a "tucson federal credit union cashier’s check" search that they had had a problem with scammers sending fraudulent checks and through copy pasting the first few sentences of the initial email into google search that McKesson also had a problem with fraudulent job offers. The scammer does not know that I’ve discovered him and is still asking for nine more gift cards once Western Union refunds the money.
