Consumer Narrative
I was looking for job online and applied for a job after doing the interview and getting the job they sent me a check to deposit in my account and told me to deposit it and order the work materials as I deposited the check instead of telling me to buy stuff from online store or something they told me to XXXX it to someone and told me that this is the vendor, after that i felt like its a sketchy thing to do and i refused to take the job and then i told them immediately that how do i send your money back and I dont want to take this job and they started threatening me that i am trying to steal their company fund even though i asked them to send it back and i asked them where should i send you a check but they told me they dont trust me and told me to transfer it through XXXX again at that point i got email from thier hr team and told me that they will take actions and file a report and i said i will send your money back as soon the XXXX transfer was completed by me, couple hours later i got notification on my bank account and saw they check they had sent me was disputed and bank had overdrafted my account and took the money from my account so then i realized that they were fraud and they took my money. Attached is the id that recruiter sent me And the transaction picture
