I received a text offering a biweekly check of $500.00 to allow Budlite to put one of those magnets on my car to advertise for Budweiser for 3 months. I was supposed to confirm my address and then receive my first check for $1000.00 in the mail and when the people who were hired to apply this wrap to my car. I was told I needed to have the check cashed and have cash on hand for the installation fee (cash only). Too good to be true, I replied with a picture of a man behind bars. I told them I didn't have a checking account and that I referred their text to a scam unit.
I had IRS calls three times and a job offer from an artist to take care of his accounts and book trips for him. I actually received the check for $1800.00 with instructions to take my first $600.00 out and send him the rest. He bothered me for a while to cash the check, I replied as soon as he sends me the information on his business account because I was not using my personal checking account. I reported him and now I have the check frame it reads my very first scam & probably not my last.
