Description

I was contacted through the text from Layla about seeing my profile and wanting to give me a remote job offer. I texted her back. She explained to me that it was a remote online job. She also told me she had to set me up with a tutor for training. In order to do that she had me set up a zoom workplace account to get a hold of the tutor. I set up the zoom account and Layla had the tutor get a hold of me. Shaana Violeta got a hold of me and started training. She set me up with the Kroger website had me use her training account. After the training she had me set up a account for myself. I did a few of the orders and then all of a sudden this Lucky order came up and in order to finish the orders I was doing I had to make up the difference with my own money. I did make money but i ended up having to put it all back in, in order to make up the difference. I did some more orders and then another Lucky order popped up but i didn't have the money to make up the difference. So I told her I couldn't do it and she basically told me to use my mother's credit card to make up the difference. When I told her i didn't feel comfortable asking my mother for that kind of money after my mother already put in a 1,000 dollars in she said when you make the money you can buy your mother an iphone17 and small gifts to make her happy. Being i couldn't make up the difference of 10,9999 she said she wished she could help but unless I came up with the difference I couldn't finish my orders. So the 2200 that I put in myself I cant even get back. The image below is the first page of Shaana Violeta's certificate for Kroger. I also have each of Layla's and my conversation that I screen shotted along with Shaana's and all of the transactions I did on Kroger as well.
