A paid internship scam cost a local college student thousands of dollars.
Clayton Justice said he answered a job listing that appeared to have been posted by a Drexel University professor in October. It offered a paid internship as a research assistant.
"They were offering $500 to do some research on pharmaceuticals," Justice said.
The internship offer was supposedly being run by Drexel University Economics Professor Dr. Marco Airaudo.
Justice, who is a biomedical engineering major at Case Western University, jumped at the chance - but first ran the email by his mother, who is an attorney. #scammer #philadelphia
