Scamming - Fraud
I was contacted about a data entry position with construction group. They said it was $35 an hour which already seemed sketchy. They wouldn’t call myself. They used teams to do an “interview” the name on Microsoft teams is Mrs.Lochie Korck. She said they would send a check to me to purchase some pretty expensive items to get started and sent a check in the mail. I called my bank and they confirmed this is fraudulent. The account is no longer open. I reported to them and now here.

I was contacted by DGB exact same address in Luxembourg. Offered the same $35 an hour for an Administrative Assistant/Data Entry position. The person who contacted me was Mrs. Rene Louidort. The interview was ligit questions but through Microsoft Teams app. It's a scam. The interview went on until approximately 10:30 in the evening from 4 pm that afternoon. I began getting suspicious when I asked if I needed to fill a job application and didn't receive a reply. Also notice the language. Sometimes broken English. "I'd" be right back instead of I'll be right back. I stopped before I got too far into it.
This person who contacted me on Signal app said his name was Mr. Mahnesmith Schuler and said he is interviewing for Administrative Assistant/Data Entry job for $35 an hour. He asked me real interview questions but it’s the location I’m worried about that the corporate office is from and the site they provided. He said DGB group in the field of ISOBAT and the office is 8, Rue des Artisans L-3895 Foetz Luxembourg. Need to find out if this is a legit company.
Scam. I was also contacted for the same position, same salary, exact same address. They apparently send you checks with a fraudulent account. Not real
