Description
I was contacted by an individual claiming to be an HR manager under the name Paul Kent (who is listed on the site of the official company as their Chief Commercial Officer). When I began to get suspicious, I asked how long he'd been an HR Manager, he lied again and said that he was actual the Chief Compliance Officer, which again is not his position. I was "hired" after a text only interview and received an offertory letter from the same email address as the Zoom invite I received to start the interview process, only this time it was under the name of the company's CEO. Letter they sent is attached below. I was "hired" 10/14/25, and asked to report 9 am my time the next day. I did so (this was before I was too suspicious). I was told what to expect for my orientation and training and that the company would be sending me a check that would need to be cashed immediately or by the next morning (text below are direct quotes). "You'll be provided detailed updates to know when you'll be receiving your startup check to ensure that you can have it deposited to your account using any of your financial institution deposit procedures (strictly either by Mobile, ATM, Teller) to ensure that we have you processed detail instructions on how to place the order of the equipment for delivery to your address via our closest courier service okay" "NOTE: Once you receive the check you are needed to have it deposited to your account through the ATM/Mobile App ,Then the funds will be will be credited and available in your account for cash out Immediately or the next morning....Okay?" "We'll be providing you with some (software and hardware, iPhone, Mac Book Pro laptop, fast/secure internet connection, hardware electronic devices and an installed time tracker) to commence your training orientation with the help of our assigned supervisor as the set-up would be needed for you to commence work fully for us."
