Description

I was contacted by Sarah Middleton, the "HR Assistant" at Respirogen, Inc. ([email protected]) about a data entry position with their company. I went through the interview process and was offered the position - signed an offer letter and everything. The position "required" access to software in my name. I was issued an expense check for the amount. I deposited the check, it became available in my account, and I purchased the software with "Sarah Middleton's" assistance. It was paid for through a cashapp transaction. I was hesitant to complete the transaction, however, I justified in the moment that it wasn't my money. Three business days later, I was notified that there was a freeze on the account that issued the check to me and the money used "to purchase the software license" had, in fact, come out of my account. The www.respirogeninc.com website is fraudulent. The company is fake. It is a SCAM.
