Description

I received a text and email from Sarah Looney (HR Assistant) from Healthcare of Today, Inc. about a job I don’t remember applying to. It was for remote data entry clerk. They asked me a bunch of questions and to complete a personality test and fill out an online form. Then without a phone or video interview I received an offer letter the next day. In the offer letter, one of the conditions was vague. It stated that I needed to buy a program and set it up with my own wallet and they would send me a check to reimburse. The amount was not specified, and the program was not named. They stopped emailing me back once I questioned this part of the document. The following is from their Offer Letter: "1. You will be required to complete an identity verification process. Ms Looney will walk you through this process 2. Before you can commence your training, you will need to obtain a personal license for the software used in transmitting data, specifically for remote work purposes. The software requires every user to upgrade their account using their personal wallet, which must match the name on their account. This is in compliance with the Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) laws. Therefore, the company will issue an expense check to you specifically for the purpose of getting started. You are expected to use the funds from the check only for the purpose of acquiring the license. Our HR assistant (Ms Looney) will provide you with further instructions and references to assist you in getting started."
