Total money lost $200

Type of a scam Employment

I was contacted by them first via email and told that I was being offered a job. Immediately after expressing my interest, I was given the job and told to expect equipment in the mail within the next two weeks. Rather than equipment, I recieved a check for $2,400.90 and was told by one of their representatives that I would have to purchase the equipment on my own from their check. They refused to give me information about my actual job position and kept insisting they would call back after the weekend. After depositing the check into my bank account, I discovered that my bank balance immediately dropped to $0. The check was a Bank of America check with a company logo of Array Enterprises Inc.
