 I was contacted by a man named Henry Meeks. Claimed he was from Australia and moving to my area in MI. He claimed he got my contact info from care.com, which I thought was odd, but I figured that someone must have used my text app number on there before I got it so I gave this nice gentleman the benefit of the doubt. I have kids of my own, and I am recently unemployed and good with children so I thought why not? I can be a nanny. Well stories kept changing and the biggest red flag was that the day before the check arrived, he told me instead of me going grocery shopping for his family before they arrived, I would be instead "wiring the rest of the funds to his wife's store manager" I received the check which was $2350 and my first week pay was the $350 and I was told to wire $2000. I took check straight to bank to be looked at. Sure enough it was a scam. He told me to deposit via ATM or mobile banking so that a bank teller couldn't see check I am sure. I don't even have a bank account. What a fraud. His stories kept changing. His "husband" became "wife" the "apartment" they were moving turned to "house" which i checked up on and it was still up for sale. Then his "2 year old" became a "5 year old" lol. The check I received was from the law offices of George castrataro which turned out to be a real person and place. Either he is involved or he doesn't know that he is being used for checks being written. Seeing how people are making complaints about this guy, I'm leaning more toward he knows and is involved. If he isn't I apologize. But I hope this report reaches out to people. I hope it saves more people from being ripped off by "henry meeks" so sad. Targeting young struggling people on care.com or any other website. Beware! Don't be a fool and deposit this bad check into your account or send money to these people! I'm glad I was not naive enough to fall for it. I may have been years ago when young. But not now.
