This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I was hired to do a job and that is what I did. I went through an extensive background check and had to sign a contract. Then I was supposed to use my credit cards that had a good bit of credit so I could purchase products, wait until the purchase posted to my account, paid for the purchase with the company's banking information, routing and account numbers, once the payment had posted then I would package and send the product to the location they sent me labels for. All of this was done through emails and phone calls. But I did some research of my own about the company and I thought it was legit. I would wait until the payment had posted to my account before boxing and mailing the products, not realizing they could use the confirmation numbers to reverse the payments. I even reached out to Barclay's and asked if I was ok with the payments. And I was told they could not reverse them; but they did. Saying I was an unauthorized user for the account! But at the time that I made those payments, I WAS an authorized user for those accounts or they would not have gone through the start with.

Claimed loss: I have loss the use of my credit and my credit cards. If I tried to buy anything very big at this time, I would not be able to afford anything with the credit score I have now

Desired outcome: I just want my credit score and credit history to reverse back to where it was in November of 2023 before this IDIOT got hold of me and made me feel like such a fool for trusting people.
