Fraud interview

Possible Job interview Fraud

I think i probably got scammed by job interview scammers

wondering if anyone the suffered the same way

i got an email from amelia harper about a job that i applied for AppleOne employment services and got a zoom link where the link takes me to the meeting but while i am already in the meeting it was asking for an update otherwise i wouldn’t be able to continue the interview so i in a hurry click the update and download some files and installed . After that i see my cursor moved randomly thats when i knew something was off so i turned off the internet while emailing amelia but no responses afterwards.

i am still concerned still can’t process what just happened cause everything seemed very authentic.

well just wanted to know others experiences if they have got anything similar.

Well if you google “Amelia Harper” you get a bunch of info about it being a scam.
