I'm having trouble how this can be "unbeknownst to her" when she's the one "accepting deliveries of company laptops" and she's the one who "operated a 'laptop farm' from her home". That's enough of her involvement for her to know it was for fake Americans overseas.
This has been going on for years. A company conducts a phone interview for a consultant, then someone else entirely shows up to work and they don’t know shit.
Big defense contractors are preyed on.
Pure stupidity on her part!
Unbeknownst my rear. She is a traitor and criminal fraud. Besides, what does a waitress/massage therapist have to do with IT jobs? Is that in itself not a red flag.
I keep having multiple people saying they want me to consult for a company interested in investing in a medical device company.
They insist I have to communicate using WhatsApp, which I politely refuse and then they ghost me when I recommend 4-5 other methods.
WhatsApp has had security issues previously so I’m very reluctant to use it and when people refuse to use anything else it makes me even more critical of it.
