So, I have been struggling for a job for months now. I just now have been getting calls back. So I was hired by this man named Michael. He said he was a entrepreneur and also did real estate. Apparently he's a busy man and travels a lot. Like as of now, supposely hes in Europe for the next two weeks. We planned on meeting for the first time when he gets back to Texas, where i live. I am his personal assistant. My first job to do for him is buy toys and donate them to a orphanage home. He wants me to do this once a month. He said he will be sending me a check in the mail, then i can go buy toys at ehatever store i want and go donate them. However, he said he will tell me the name of the orphanage home and anything else i need to know when the check arrives at my house.

I got the check today. Its a $3,500 check made out to me, with the bank First County Bank on it or some shit. When I received it, I immediately texted him. (Apparently he's hard of hearing or something ) and said OK I got the check. What's the name of the orphanage home, what kind of toys do I buy (like age group), and asked him if I cash it out or what. He said no, I need to deposit the money into my bank account. I was like no, I'm not comfortable with this I need to either receive a cashiers check, money order, or you just tell me that I can cash it out at your bank.

Still waiting on a response. He's in Europe so I have no idea what time it is there, but he hasn't replied. I started telling my family and friends and they said don't do it it's a scam and how I can get in trouble and lose a lot of money. I have no job, living on savings and have a kid on the way. I can't afford to go through a fucking scam. It's sad that this is the only job I can get with all my certifications and job background. All I get is a scam.

He's also paying me 520 dollars a week. I work 5 hour shifts, and only work 3 days a week. So it's good money. I would like to find out if I'm getting fucked over or not.. I really need this job, if it's legit. I don't know.

So please someone give me advice on this. What do I do. I'm not doing anything right now. I'm lost.
