This all happened in emails, and near the end there were text messages as well and some phone calls.
I was offered a job, which I found this job on Snagajob.com, to drive around Alex's mother around sacramento, as she was going to be moving here from Chicago. I would be responsible to drive her around anywhere and everywhere, and provide her with security, as a chauffeur. Pay was $25/hour, 10 hours a day, and 7 days a week, and i would be provided with a vehicle to drive her in; a Mercedes Benz Cls 550.
This guy, Alex, then stated in the emails that were sent back and forth, that he would send me a check that was to be use to pay the shippers/people delivering the car. I recieved 2 checks from Niello Volkswagen, Sacramento for the amounts of 1937, and 2418 which i recieved on Feb. 24. Iwas told to deposit them in my account which i did.
On Feb, 25, he told me to goto Western Union and wire 3500 to a lady named ANN SCOTT in Georgia to pay for the shipping of the vehicle and the insurance fees, and that $500 was an advance to a weeks pay which he would send to me by Tuesday.
So i did as told, and wired the money to the Ann Scott person in Georgia, and sent the guy Alex the information for the transactions like he requested.
Only to find i had been SCAMMED 4 DAYS LATER
On Feb. 29, i was informed by the bank that the checks were fake, and i owed them a total of 4,473.77 for the fake checks and fees all associated with it.
Chase bank now wants the money that was withdrawn from the fake checks from mee becasue it was my bank account. But i dont have the money. IT WAS ALL WIRED TO THE ANN SCOTT LADY IN GEORGIA.
PLEASE HELP MEEEEE, i didnt do anything wrong to deserve this.
