If there is no written proof that you have issued a blank cheque the person who is receiving it could be doing it on their own. Tell them that you want to do this in writing.

How did you get the job offer? I’m guessing over email? Reply to their trail saying that you accept the offer and don’t give them the blank cheque.

Under no circumstances should you give a blank cheque to anyone.

I cannot comment on that as I don’t know how good they are at catching such criminals

In my personal experience, in both cases where my relatives lost money, no money was recovered.

Unfortunately not a lot can be done. My grandparents have lost a significant sum of money due to online scams. They have not got their money back.

All I can say is be there for your mom and try to educate her on how to stay safe from such scams. Teach her about the common scam practices.

Also be sure to scan her devices for unwanted apps, spyware and malware.

Short answer, no, the money is gone.

Long answer, you can file a cyber crime report, escalate to bank etc. in hope of getting the money back, but you and I both know that the money is gone now.
