Description
It came to my email through LinkedIn. I applied for the job and was verified to have gotten the position. The business sent me an email letting me know that they would be sending a check for $3,450 for equipment and once it was cleared they would proceed. They used Capital One's name and Logo. I became hesitant when they told me once it cleared they would proceed, I feel they wanted my banking information and personal information.
