Description
Recruited me online for a car wrap advertising logo for the athletic brewing company. The company sent me a 3560 cashier check , I deposited the check in my bank. The company hr director sent me emails telling me what to do. Once the check cleared I went to the post office, bought a 2500 money order to pay for delivery and installation of the car wrap. I went to fed ex shipping store and sent the money order. Went home and checked my debit card, balance, the $3560 check had been put on hold, this morning it's a charge back. I had called the issuing bank of the cashier check and they said there's no evidence of the check number, but the purchaser was one of the company's CEO.
