Scammers scamming

By Anonymous - 30/04/2021 07:49

Today, I got a call from my bank, saying that the cheque I deposited in my account bounced and my account is now -$2900. The cheque was from a work-at-home company, who asked me to deposit the cheque, then send them some of the money through Cash App to buy office supplies. They won’t answer their e-mails. FML

I always pray my mom never falls for ssomething like this. I always wonder how they fall for it, but then I see it happening over and over again. Why would they need you to send them money for office supplies if they gave you the money?

It does to desperate people. I know it sounds silly to someone who has a stable job and no financial problems, but once you're strapped for cash you'll grasp at every straw.

I have financial problems and no job, and have been looking for work from home, but BECAUSE I need money, I have refused to accept jobs where you have to pay them to get the tools. It should be pretty obvious that those are scams. Still, I'm sorry it happened to you, OP. But use this experience to learn from it and avoid repeating the same mistake.

A company that asks you to send them money is only there for you to call the police about them.
