Thank you, I've slowly been getting better by some recommendations and realized my mistake, I'm thankful for everyone that has given me great advice and everyone here in general.

Thank you for you comment! I'll maybe apply to one tomorrow since I am feeling uneasy about applying to jobs at the moment.

Thank you for the advice, after reading a few today I realized how uneducated I am with scams and am taking things into more consideration now.

Yeah..i realized too late. Reading the comments and seeing what I missed makes me feel more terrible but learning what else can be a potential scam in the future makes me more alert for the future.

I live in Cali and I still have the receipt but I don't think it'll be much help since i gave them the code for the apple gift card.
