Description
I was emailed by someone named Jessica Rendon, who stated that I was hired by Apofore, to start January 19. We exchanged some emails before switching over to the Telegram app (she claimed for secure messaging) and she stated that would need to obtain a software license before starting. I was tricked into depositing fraudulent checks to transfer to Cashapp, again supposedly for security purposes.
