Description

I messaged this lady on Facebook named Tori Fraley Cason. She had made a Facebook post about her company hiring and that I could work from home. Sent me over to Microsoft teams app and said to talk to Michael lanni. I went through my interview and was told I got the job, they just needed to send me a check so I can purchase my equipment for work. They needed to be specially programmed with their software. He then sent me a check (that was fake )to deposit into my account. I knew something was wrong because the name didn’t say cience technologies on it. It said Mansouri design build LLC. I contacted the company and they told me their checks were already used. I then confronted “Michael lanni” and they then said they would direct deposit it into my account… sent me a Jotform link to type my info in. (I already sent them my social and drivers license) which was a terrible idea now that I think about it. PLEASE BE AWARE!!! Do not do send any info to CIENCE TECHNOLOGIES!!! Do not do interviews on MICROSOFT TEAMS APP!!! Make sure to check ALL CHECKS SENT TO YOU for different names!
