Description

I have been applying for remote data entry jobs through LinkedIn, on Monday June 9 I received an hr email from Jessica Crowell with intellimedix llc asking for my resume. I sent my resume and then she had me do an online assessment, then once I had completed that they offered me the job. I researched the company and found their website which looked legitimate. I received a job offer letter that they had me sign and send back, and then further communication took place with Jessica via the messaging app Telegram where she sent me a video of herself welcoming me to the company. I was told they were going to send me a check so I could purchase the software needed to do the data entry work, and this was when I started to get suspicious as I heard of these check scams before. I looked at the check and it was for $1,800.00 which is a ridiculous amount for a single licensing cost for software. I reached out to Jessica asking about the amount and her answers were very suspicious leading me to confirm it was a scam.
