Hi all

I believe I was scam but now I don't know what to do.

I have been approached by an email form Finance Drive saying that they saw my CV on Total Jobs and that I was potential candidate for their company.
This was one the 1st emails:

It sounded all very good to be true but even so I gave benefit of doubt as I made a small search and didn't quite find nothing on their site as suspicious so I decided to go ahead with the registration.

The 1st 2 payments didn't fall through into my account, and to be quite honest I am thankful for that.

But then they asked me for another account number and I said I didn't have, that I only used paypal.

After a few days that instructed me to issue 2 invoices one for $5000 and another one for $6500 through my paypal account which I did, and these payment have been on pending since last week.
`
But this Sunday I received a msg form paypal saying that I received a payment of $5200. for an item that I dint sell or issued an invoiced for.

Again, that put me unease so I decided to look up the company again and i found this site.

So I decided to share my experience and ask for help.
How to report these people?

Thank you

There is no such company registered at UK Companies House, therefore it doesn't exist.

You cannot be employed by them and you owe them no obligation.

It is most likely that the messages that you have received that appear to confirm that you have received payments are 'spoofed' messages sent by the fraudster pretending to be from Paypal and it would be best that you forward them to Paypal for them to confirm the situation.

Do not send any money to the scammer. Even if the money has genuinely been sent to you it is almost certain that it is money the scammer has stolen from someone else. Any legal threats from the fraudster are meaningless as a fraudster cannot take legal action against you.
