I received a job offer from Dan Lewy at Ifuture Methods Group on 8/27/12 through Job.com and Career Builder.com; I responded by saying that his offer sounded like 30 or 40 other phony offers I had received. I then said, If you and your company are legitimate, convince me - or else I will report your activity, and you'll be blackballed. After receiving an immediate reply from him, with what appeared to be absolutely legitimate solid facts and details, I applied for a "Financial Services Officer" position. The Personnel Supervisor, Sonya Powell, communicated with me via company messaging several times per day, requiring me to login every business day from 9-11 a.m. for possible task assignment, which I did beginning September 4, 2012.

Beginning September 14, 2012 through September 21, 2012, there were three deposits of $3,550.00 and one for $3,555.00 made to my Paypal account, which I then transferred to my checking account and subsequently wired to a third party when instructed by Sonya Powell. In each case, after wiring the funds and submitting the reference number to her as instructed, she added a bonus to my beginning salary, which brought it to a total of $3,200.00, which (as stated in writing by the company) would be electronically transferred into my checking account on October 4, 2012.

Right after the fourth payment arrived in my PayPal account, PayPal notifed me that they had disabled my ability to withdraw or transfer funds from my account due to a dispute filed against me by an EBAY Buyer - although none of the transactions I performed where connected to EBAY in any way.

I immediately notified Sonya Powell, my supervisor, that PayPal had disabled access to funds in the account until I provided documentation that an EBAY buyer had received merchandise he had paid for using my PayPal account.

Sonya Powell stated that she was sorry my PayPal account was temporarily frozen, that she was working on assembling the documents they wanted so access would be restored by Monday, September 21,2012.

What happened instead was that my employee account was disabled. I sent message after message to every email address there was stating that I could not login, and that I had corporate funds that I needed to know what to do with. Of course, Paypal reversed all funds out of my account to repay each of these buyers who have filed a dispute. I finally realized that it was not a mistake, that IFUTURE METHODS GROUP did not WANT to ever hear from me again. How naive of me. I feel like an absolute idiot.

As of today, October 6, 2012, MY PAYPAL ACCOUNT IS OVERDRAWN BY $7,100.00, WHICH THEY ARE ACTIVELY TRYING TO COLLECT FROM ME, and will continue to do so.

And of course, there never was a paycheck coming to me. Just a huge, huge overdraft that I am expected to pay back.

I do have documentation of every single transaction, message and procedure sent or received as an employee, plus a mutually signed employment contract, although a fat lot of good that does.

Like I said above, all I have is a huge, huge negative account balance that I am expected to pay back, and still no job.
