Description
I applied for an IT position with a different company through Indeed and was rejected, but I was suggested to contact the email listed and send my resume. They "hired" me, but I never received an interview, and they used an EIN that looked real. I’ve been instructed to start receiving packages but never received details on how I would be paid, and when I asked, they ignored me and instead asked about my first package.
