Job offer on Indeed turned into money transfer request
I found a work from home job on Indeed.com for an appointment scheduler. They contacted me through Microsoft Teams and said they would pay for all equipment and services. Sounded legit at first.
They sent me a check and then wanted me to do money transfers through Cash App and Apple Pay. I sent them $1,795 before I realized what was happening. The address they gave was in Mt. Vernon, PA. Now I can't get ahold of them.

Got a message about a work from home job, lost over $120
I got a message about a work from home job through Indeed. They said I needed to buy an iPhone 17 Pro Max for the job. They wanted me to ship it to an address in North Dakota for some guy named David Stover to put apps on it.
So I paid for the phone, it was $124.40. I sent the money and then I just never heard back. The whole thing felt off. The contact was a phone number (206) 369-1904 and an email, [email protected]. The address they gave was 918 4th Ave S Apt 2 in Fargo.
Now I'm out the money and there's no job. No reply, nothing.
