This is how it all started...
He said he was affiliated with IBM and works as a leading wholesaler in supplying computers and also worked in tech support. He had contacted me because I was job searching and he said he was in need of a personal assistant. I was offered money to be sent directly to my bank account. When the money didn't show up in my bank account I confronted him and he sent me a screen shot of an email from his boss by the name of "Andrew G" that read:
"Hello Dave! The company secretary (SARAH) got your forwarded email concerning payment of your last completed projects, I'm personally very sorry for the inconveniences this delay has caused you especially now with your new personal assistant (My Name) who also needed to get paid yesterday as stated in your email. Just as you know the company's procedure with sales and payment, especially when clients are happy with the services and more machinery are being requested! The company are pushing payment till next two weeks which is enough time for all staffs on contract to finish with their works. SARAH got your forwarded banking details for your paycheck and you will be notified on the 31-5-2019 for payment. Sincere apologies to you from the company for the inconveniences this has caused! Thank you for understanding and committed work towards growing the company."
He said he would pay off my credit cards and help build up my credit score. The payments went through and he said he would keep paying off my balance as long as I kept buying him Google play gift cards. He asked me to send him pictures of the Google play cards and the redemption code behind it. A week later I noticed the cards he had paid off had returned. I confronted him about this and said his company had to change accounts but he reassured me he was going to pay it all off. He provided me with multiple Chase bank account numbers and routing numbers saying they are all from his company.
I have his first and last name... He sent me a picture of his ID for proof but the quality is very bad. I reported it to Google and the Federal Trade Commissions...
I have contacted Chase but they redirected me to settling it with Google first...
Would I be able to settle with Chase? They have closed all three of my credit card accounts and have not been helping me much with this matter...
I really don't have the money to pay this off.. My last resort would be to file for bankruptcy.. I am 26 years old and the only thing I have to my name is my car. I just got my credit score to 804. I also have student loans that still haven't been paid off.. Would you guys recommend this as the best option for me?
Please help :(
