Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
I received a text asking if I’d be interested in making$500 weekly by having a decal placed on my car for advertising purposes. In that text there was a link sending me to a page on weebly.com so that I could fill out some general information. The next day I received a text from a different number than the first stating that I had been approved for the job. Of course I get my hopes up a bit. Who wouldn’t right now with the way the world is right now. The person then proceeded to tell me that I’d be receiving a check in the mail for the amount of $3000.00. Sure it came to mind that that was a lot of money and that o was told $500. Nothing about$3000. But I went along with it. He said when I received the check I was to deposit it. Wait till it clears the bank then take my payment of $500 and send the remaining amount to the company who’d be making the decal for my car. Sure thing today I received the check for said amount of$3000. With it came directions for me to text yet another phone number completely different from the other two that I had received the check. I did. Now I have someone from both phone numbers blowing my phone up asking and telling me to go deposit that check. Major uneasy feeling about all of now.

Texted me to see if i wanted to earn an extra $500.. advertising for Venom Energy Drink when you agree they send you a check for $2000 which 1500 of it goes to the person putting on decals. But me being very suspicious of everything asked the bank teller to check if the check was real and of course it was a fraud so please dont cash or deposit any checks to your account. Make sure that it is not going to come back and swipe you of your money.
