Possible scam from expertIQ and or law firm?
Got hit up by expertiq, met with retaining attorney, they chose me. Great! Never worked with his before so I'm trying to vett everything best I can. Emails check out. Attorney and firm check out. But they want to pay me via credit card to my venmo or wire me funds, with wire details over the phone. I decline, request payment by check instead, and send over retainer agreement through expertIQ platform file share with no response (yet).
Just wondering if others have successfully used this platform, and provided a W9 without consequence. I am concerned about uploading my SSN, even if it's on a W9, and even if it's through experIQ's file share.
