Description

I was contacted about a potential position with Lumen Technologies. The original email asked me to download Teams so I could be contacted by Mary Pamela Lincolnwood. I was asked many questions and told to hold on the line for 20 minutes while she contacted Lumen with the information. She responded that Lumen accepted my resume and she would be forwarding a check to purchase critical office items for the position. She emailed the check with rediculous instructions which made me nervous and I began to check online about scams. Her name and all of the information she provided checked out to be a scam. I have the chat details and all emails if you want them. Thank you
