Victim Location 44067
Type of a scam Employment
I applied to a job ad for a graphic designer position. They texted me about a job interview. Interview took place over google hangouts messenger. I realized the actual company I applied had an identical website, word for word and picture for picture. They requested a copy of my drivers license, which I sent. They then sent me a contract to sign. All my interactions with the alleged Ms Patricia Bailey and a Jena Kelleher were on Google Hangouts. They sent a check to purchase equipment for a home office and then asked me to use my funds to buy the equipment until the check cleared. I found that suspicious and checked with the BBB.
