Has anyone done this? Is this a scam?

A company by the name of JPL Independent %26amp; Co LTD contacted me via e-mail if I was interested in a job with them. The job would allow me to work from home. By going over their web site http://jplindependent.org/index.php it seemed good to me so I agreed. They don鈥檛 ask for money what so ever only for my contact information and Bank account number to which they will deposit my paycheck too. So I e-mailed them back the completed application and my resume. They emailed me back to day telling me my training start tomorrow and via internet so one will be contacting me as well. If I have any questions to call this number (781) 241 9930. Well, I called and its not a working # and 781 area code appears to be located in Lexington, MA, when the website indicates the company is located in Buxton, Derbyshire overseas. Now am scared because they have my personal information and account # (not my SS# though). What can I do? Or What should I do? i dont want to know about any other work from home site, only if this is a scam!





Also they e-mailed me these instructions:

That doesn't necessarily mean it is a scam, but with the other information it sure sounds like one.





Here is what you need to do.


1. Halt all further communication from them. Don't give them more info about you until this is settled.





2. Tell your bank. Depending on how much info you gave them, they might not have enough info to actually get money out of you. You may have caught them in the first steps. Tell your bank exactly what you gave them and they will know if it is enough to be dangerous. They can then place a hold on your account or whatever else is needed.
