Description

I applied for this job through LinkedIn. The "HR Assistant" Jessica Singleton then contacted me through my email. She invited me to take an aptitude test and then invited me to an online interview. I was then contacted again through email and offered the job. When I signed the offer letter I was given a fake employee portal to log into. I was then sent a paper check through email, that has since bounced, and instructed on buying my software while waiting for my hardware to be shipped. After that was bought I was ghosted with no contact from anyone in the "company". There were no major spelling or grammar errors, the site and employee portal looked legit, I found the company on LinkedIn, and I even went to the extent of making sure that what they say that they are researching is really being researched. I quit my job for this opportunity and am now looking for a job without having a job. This will effect my ability to support my family.
