Description

I posted my resume on TeamWork. I received an email from ***** ********** ********@mail.uc.edu, offering $550 a week to do various administrative tasks like making or receiving payments or gifts and processing paperwork and keeping records. The position was a home based flexible part-time job. They attached a Google form to the document for me to complete. I shared my name, address, phone, email, gender, age, occupation, and my 2022 Tax return. Then I sent my resume and a description of why I wanted the position. This afternoon, I received a reply from them saying: "I trust this message finds you well. I'm writing to express my keen interest in you being my personal assistant. Your position has been confirmed. Sorry we can't meet before you get started. I am on a business trip in Australia, I will be back in the states by the 28th of next month, but rest assured you can get started as soon as I arrive, we can discuss issues. This is an independent contractor job. I make charity donations to 3 orphanage homes every month. In your capacity, you will purchase some toys and gift items for the orphanage home.
