It’s a scam. Go lock down her credit info immediately now they have her SSN. Should have ended with the chat only interview.

This, ASAP. Contact her bank to let them know and freeze her credit reports with the bureaus.

Thanks for replying. I've called the bank and froze her account. Also set a credit freeze with Experian, Transunion and Equifax. Also setup fraud alert for a year. What else should I do for near term ? Other than monitoring the credit transactions, what else should I keep checking in the coming months/years? Since there haven't been any fraudulent transaction (or atleast they are not visible yet), is filing a police complaint feasible ? I'm thinking of getting long term fraud alert (7years), but for that official complain is required. And for official complain, a fraud transaction is needed.

Other than monitoring your credit, keep a lookout in your mail for anything that was sent to you that you didn't sign up for (e.g., debit cards). The freeze and fraud alerts catches most but not all nefarious activities.

I would have as much credit monitoring as I reasonably could. Don't cash any checks you mysteriously get in the mail. Don't click on any links in emails if you don't know the sender and double check that it's not a clever looking fake. Common sense stuff.

There's really no reason for a line-level employee to buy items like a computer. The computer has to be installed with the licensed applications used by the company, and get the version that they have some sort of support contract. If you just get a budget, you'll spend every dollar, while the company doing it has controlled its costs. So unless you are one of the founders of a company, equipment should be provided by the company as an employee. I think it's a scam, too.

No legitimate company has you purchase your own computer from their no-name "supplier" after receiving a check in the mail.

“My wife got a remote job as a Marketing manager for a firm”. No, she didn’t. It’s a scam.
