Description
I received an email saying Aldevron wanted to hire me so I filled out an application with a resume. Weeks later I received a texted which instructed me to send my email and I did for a zoom interview. When it was time for zoom interview I was dressed and ready but instead the interviewer Mr. Kay Clifton only messaged me where he told me a supervisor would be calling the next morning early morning. The next morning I woke up to a call at 7am and that was the second flag. But I prayed it would be real. After that I was told they were sending out a W4 offer letter and a check for the vendors to receive my home office. I then became extremely confused. The check they sent was for $4950.00 as an echeck. From studying for my securities exams I knew that was the 3rd and final read flag because the check was just shy of $5k by $50 which would make it suspicious for any bank to not want to cash it. I then did my research to find I’m not the first person.
