Description

I was approached about a Supply Chain Manager role and interviewed for over seven hours via Teams. A few days later, I received an offer that seemed too good to be true. Despite official-looking documents, I was asked to buy hardware and software (two of each) and ship them to California, with the promise of reimbursement. This was suspicious since they have an IT office there. When I requested an in-person meeting with HR, it was avoided. I can provide more documentation if needed; I also tried contacting the company in France but got no response.
