Description
Cindy Booma reached out to me with a job opportunity of working from home as a project manager. She informed me that the training was paid, 16 business days. She asked me not to use my personal bank account but to open one with Wells Fargo, Chase, etc. She reported to me every morning with the days assignment, sometimes it was to watch a YouTube video on budgeting and wrote a report, sometimes it was research a certain software and write a report, other times it was do crypto currency transactions. She said the company dealt with crypto payments alot from clients and they needed me fo learn how. She would send me an amount, $185 and some change or $115 and some change, she would send that from the company wallet to my coinbase account. Then would have me transfer it from there to my bank account that I opened for my direct deposit to go into, and transfer it from there to my crypto account and then back to the company wallet. As a way to practice such transaction. She never asked me for my personal account information, nor my social security number. She would call me every morning to make sure I was ready for the assignment and then email it to me. On business day 16 of my training, I asked her how much longer my training would be, she informed me it would go until the end of next week, August 8th. I told her that I had bills coming up, and was told this was 16 business days of training then get paid, and I needed to be compensated for what I had done up til this point. She told me she was emailing that department and figuring that out for me and would get back to me. The next morning, she didn't call me as she typically did, and when I tried to call her, the phone is shut off. I also sent an email and got no response.
