The Dudes

Type of a scam Employment

Contacted via email about resume on indeed. They were offering a commercial lines account manager position and asked if I would be available to work for a trial period of 10 days and then do an interview either at their office or over Skype. They sent a lot of information about the position, the job responsibilities, information about the company, and a website to read all about the company. They also sent contracts and official paperwork that was stamped and signed by the company and HR, everything looked very official and professional. They explained they are a company that sells music software and their customers purchase it using bitcoin. I had agreed to try the trial period and she explained about managing multiple candidates during this trial and that we will be assigned tasks and taught slowly over the course of the trial how to do more aspects of the job and that the trial would be work from home but we would be in contact through phone and email and have to send reports of our tasks. She explained over the first part of the trial we will not be in contact with the customers yet but that a specific case would be assigned to us and they would see how we interact with the client and sell the products. For the first day she called and spoke with me and explained that her “financial department” was going to transfer me money and she would go through the process of how they accept the payments and process them/want them transferred to bitcoin. I was contacted by my bank asking about the transfer and they explained it was stolen from someone’s account in Quebec. at this point the woman stopped responding to any emails or calls when I tried to contact her after finding this out.
