Description

I was contacted my Mary Hunner, they stated they reviewed my application and if I was okay with it to contact the job recruiter Vic Houndman. Once I contacted Houndman he emailed me a set of questions that sounded like legit interview questions. After I answered these I got another email from Houndman saying I made it to the next round of the Interview. For this next round ai had to be connected with James Max via Skype. Again more "Interview" questions were asked. I was offered the job a few hours later. I was emailed an Offer Letter, a Welcome Letter, as well as direct deposit and tax forms. All forms looked legit. I was connected via text by Max saying that they were gonna send me a check via email that I needed to moble deposit so i could get the required software for the computer they were going to send me. The check came with $2000 written on the line but $4900 in the box. The check also came from a Daniels Creative Jewelry. Not like a payroll company or the company itself. This is were I confronted Max with no response.
