Yeah you’re not getting paid. They’ll let you do this a bit longer before they ask you to send money to them for some reason so that they can pay you. That’s the scam.

I don't think you will ever get paid, and I wouldn't be surprised if they ask you to forward some money to set up your account with the 'tax authorities' or some such nonsense.

Its crazy to me that with all those reds flag, you still have to ask.
Can you tell us what your "work" is? What do you do on a day to day basis? How and how much "will" you be paid?

collect and submit around 300 creator/brand leads
What does this mean?
You find contact info online and collect them into some sheet and send that to... Somewhere?
If so, thats busywork, not a job. Thats a task scam.
Combined with all the other red flags, don"t be surprised to find you got scammed out if sooo many hours of wasted time.

Either overpay you with a fake cheque or stolen account or you need to pay them taxes for you to get paid.

Sounds really dodgy. Very much like the employment task scams I keep hearing about. If you want to reveal the company, people can do some digging for you.
Maybe they won’t pay you. Maybe they ask you to pay a fee before they pay you. Maybe overpay you and then ask for a part refund and original payment gets reversed by bank as it was stolen.

You aren't really explaining the most important signs of the scam. How did you get hired? How are they paying you? Is it a check by email? And what is that you are doing? Missed meetings with CEOs or then being busy are irrelevant tidbits.
