I saw an ad on Facebook. I went to the direct website and clicked on something that made me believe I was applying for a job with Aetna. Next just like the other person I was contacted on messenger by someone named Anderson Jones. They acted like they were interviewing me for a remote position.. They asked a lot of questions just like a job interview would ask. Then they said a hr manager would reach out to me. They sent me a pic of a drivers license from Texas. Said his name was Robert Melvin Poole. I uploaded the license he sent me. I sent him a picture of my drivers license as they asked. Then things got kind of weird. First they asked me for my account password and information saying to send it to [email protected]. They said the company would pay off half my debt because it effects their business somehow. I didn't feel comfortable doing that. So I asked why they cant just make a payment to my credit card without that information. Then they sent me a account number and Routing number Saying its Pinnacle Bank Aetna Business Checking Account. Told me to make a payment with this information and send them a receipt. I got kinda nervous because I didn't think this sounded right so I called my credit card company and asked them how someone would make a payment if it wasn't me. They couldn't verify the account information I was given. They did say if they had my card number that I could dispute anything so I gave them my card number and told them to deposit the amount but they wouldn't. They asked for the last 4 of my social but I wouldn't give it to them. Then I saw this. Im so disappointed I didn't see the red flags right in front of my face but I am also afraid they are going to use my dr license pic to send to someone like they sent me that one. I dont really know who I was talking to. Also after the credit card payment that they wanted me to do they wanted me to pay for shipping they said it was $89 for equipment. When I asked what equipment they said a new phone a scanner and some other things. I already have a scanner so that was something else that was weird. My credit card company asked if I made a 15 dollar charge and I didn't recognize it so my credit card account is frozen for the moment working on getting a new card and fixing the damage :(
