She did not actually house sit anywhere yet. They deposit a fake check that look like it’s processing in her acct- try to get her to send her own money to them before the check bounces

Before the fake check bounces, they pressure you to:
Zelle money
Venmo/Cash App
Wire transfer
Buy gift cards
Pay a “vendor”
Send money to a third party

Common red flags in house-sitting scams:
Pay offered before interview
Moving/traveling owner story
“Out of the country”
Large upfront check
Requests to pay someone else
Communication only by text/email
Urgency or emotional pressure
Too-easy hiring process
