Bogus Job Offers and Fraudulent checks
I received a job offer [online] from someone calling himself Bill Evans of Rock Health. They sent me a formal notice of employment to sign and a W-2 form. They also sent me a check for $4,850.00 to deposit via ATM into my account to purchase equipment to work remotely. First there is a real company named Rock Health and Bill Evans is the Managing Director. However, the communications were through gmail Hangouts and there was only concerns for the processing of the check. I took the check to my bank who verified it was fraudulent. They sent me the check via fedex. So be aware its a scam. I have notified Rock Health but don't be duped its all a scam. They preying on the most vulnerable in you time of need for a job.
Thanks for sharing. I'm glad to see more people reporting on job scams. The more people that are aware, the less likely fellow Jobcasers will fall victim.
