Description
Received email Novocure Inc. that my resume on Career Builder has successfully passed our initial screening for Data Entry Clerk, Remote Customer Service Representative and Administrative Assistant roles. Interview Details: Team or Zoom with a verification code and HR operations Manager: Mrs. Ashley Manzo. I researched the company and found Ashley Manzo on LinkedIn. I went through with a Teams interview. It was very detailed with questions and answers. No personal information was provided other than name. After a couple of hours of the interview process I was informed I received the job and an offer letter would be mailed and to provide the preferred email. The next morning to report back to HR on Teams at 8am. I received the letter and the FW4. It seems legit and filled out/signed and returned. Logged on to TEAMS. Went through with a couple more Q&A's and will be provided a check to purchase their computer, printer, time tracker, headset, and shredder. Went back and forth regarding the check sent via email or check mailed. I wanted the check mailed and provided address. Ashley Manzo checked in the next day and provided the tracking number and asked that I keep her informed when I had it to move to the next step. The check was mailed by UPS and my husband looked at it. It was cut from a Sharratt Construction Inc. 171 Saxony Rd. Suite 206 Encinitas, CA 92024 for $9720.00. There was no mention of Novocure. Did not add up. Ashley TEAMS stating she knows the check has been delivered. I looked up on BBB and saw the exact thing happen to someone else with Ashley Manzo. I am not depositing the check. They do have a picture of me, my address, and tax forms. I do have LifeLock and will be reviewing all my credit after this.
