Description
Scammer has a fake website posing as a non-profit helping the LGBTQ community with several jobs for hire. I applied for a job that appeared legit. I received an unprofessional call from the owner for an "interview" and was told I got the job and would receive a job offer in the form of a DocuSign. I must sign it within 3 days. I was also told that the company laptop would be provided but at a charge of $400 as the owner was tired of losing equipment. I received the DocuSign within a few hours, but after doing research, realized that the job was a scam and not legit. Later that evening I received an email from the company's assistant demanding that the DocuSign be signed by 12am that night or the job offer would be rescinded. The email included 30+ other applicants with their emails visible for all to see. It was at this point that all applicants were informed of the scam and began stating their decline for their job and disgust at being deceived.
