Complaint narrative:
XXXX contacted by a professor from my University for a research position and he asked me to find out how much a computer, a printer and a projector would cost and once I sent him the approximate amount I said I was no longer interested in the job believing that what he was asking was part of the interview. He then sent me a check and asked me to send the money back to him or else I would face disciplinary action from my school. I then sent him money through XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX for {$900.00} and the same day another amount for {$900.00}, {$950.00}, {$250.00}, and on XX/XX/XXXX another amount of {$500.00}. I believed be was legit because he had sent me reimbursement checks for the money he had sent excessively but the checks would have been returned. I reported this to my bank but the claims have been denied.
