Erika Turner (if that's her real name)
Complaint 340934 Details

On June 17th i received an email regarding an online job interview. i was told to contact the interview via google hangouts or yahoo messenger. i used google hangouts since i already had the app.long story short i was "hired" for the company CSC. she told me about pay, i was working from home, they would provide a laptop, printer, etc., i would receive a start up check, i would begin training the next morning at 8am EDT. on the following saturday she sent me the tracking number from USPS the tracking number was 9470101699320015351493. the package was delivered on saturday june 20th. it included a check in the amount of $2,415. it came in a priority mail express mailing envelope. the only address found on the envelope besides mine is:
Ninosca Rosario
Labcorp
323 West 77th Street
Kansas City, MO 64114.
but it also has a zip code on the envelope that is 20853 which is Maryland I believe.
she told me deposit it into my acct, so i deposited it into my account using the atm(since it was saturday)the first $200 was made available like always with any big check. monday june 22nd she gave me my training assignment like usual but later she told me i would be needing to purchase software from the vendor. i would be reimbursed on friday the 26th along with my first pay is what she said. the software was said to be $450. she told me send the money via western union. she told me send it to the name David Powers Philadelphia, PA 19134. the mtcn for the transfer was 910-779-7112. the next day she told me the receiver was unable to get the money. she told me to get a refund & send it again this time to Betty McElyea Palm Bay, FL 32908. that mtcn# was 211-591-5434idk why i didn't just keep the money but since i had the $2,415 check that was now posted to my account i didn't think anything of it. on june 23rd the check wasn't showing in my account anymore the bank placed it on a hold until july 1st. i informed erika she said that they made the funds available to me yesterday so just wait until the hold was off. on june 24th she told me i would be needing to but a G1 Time Tracker to calculate the amount of time i have devoted a day for work & that it calculates my hourly pay. so i googled "G1 Time Tracker" & the first things that popped up were links that said SCAM. i clicked on them. they had had the same conversation i had with an employer but were hired under a different company. they also had lost money. their interviewers had diff names. some ppl actually sent the money for the tracker. i was so upset...i still am. to top it off i checked my bank account, the check had been returned!!! i called the bank they said it was a bad check & it was being sent back to me. i told her & asked her was this a scam & asked for my money back. the only time she replied she said "sorry i am in the board meeting currently logon my phone. i will message you shortly". never heard from her again. when i try to chat her on the computer it says restricted. i'm sure there is no way for me to get my money back, but these ppl should be stopped. i emailed the REAL CSC to inform them & they told me i should also file a complaint. i have proof of everything.
