Insurance-Connected, Inc. Contact Person is Tiffany Clark, claiming to be the Hiring Manager, HR Administrative Operations and Support Department, offering at-home work as Key Account Manager.
I, too, answered an ad for an at-home admin asst job and received an email from a person claiming to be the Hiring Manager, Tiffany Clark, for Insurance-Connected, Ltd based out of the United Kingdom. I filled out an
application and sent her my resume.'She' answered back stating that the position was filled but she stated there was another position that was best suited for me. I was offered the position of Key Account Manager.
"You will work from home until we open our US branch. This job is possible because our company has its headquarters in Kenilworth, United Kingdom. As such we do not yet have our offices in the US. Until we do we will always need representatives to take care of some financial matters. This position is exclusively telephone-based until we open our US branch. The problem we are facing is the time necessary for our company to receive the funds from bank transfers paid by our US Customers. It takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks to clear these funds in the UK. Being our Key Account Manager you would speed up the process tenfold."
I deeply researched the company and found it to be legitimate, so I signed the agreement, a W-4 and registered to their email software to begin my work.
My work was to receive payments from customers, not to collect payments. Then to transfer via Western Union the amount to a person, an address, and a country defined by Tiffany Clark's instructions. I did one transfer which
started to smell bad... The amount which I received for the transfer was withdrawn from my account two days later... I immediately issued a STOP PAYMENT to my bank. The bank received right away a serious warning about
the amount being fraudulent and block my account. I sent questions to Tiffany Clark who answered with "not a problem... We'll meet with your bank HQ when we'll be in New York. Do not worry, the second office to be opened in the US will be in Florida... I have been relocated in the US... We'll meet soon... Etc."
On March 27,12 the Insurance-Connected, Inc. Website and email software disappeared... tiffany Clark disappeared.
I was a victim, as probably many others. Those people are super-scammers! Everything I checked looked real!!! I asked to meet with them, they said that we shall meeting end of March, after the opening of New-York office!
As I was not 100% sure the position, I kept track of most of the email from the Insurance-Connected, Inc. Software. All their emails looked imaginably 'true'!!!
