A Bit Suspicious - Graphic Designer Pure Watercraft Employee Review

I will preface this by saying this is the first job I've gotten out of school, so I'm not familiar with much. But after I did the interview, I was put in contact with the accounting department to set up a home office. At first I was sent an email check to deposit, then asked to install Zelle to transfer money to the vendors to get the supplies that I need to get set up. I was having several issues, but it boiled down to me going to the bank to find out what was going on. The check they sent was apparently from an account blocked by the bank. I end up being asked to set up another bank account with Wells Fargo which I cannot complete open yet, as I do not have the card yet to set up the account. The accounting department has been very pushy with asking if the card is here, even though I've told them it will most likely be a few days before the card is in. As of writing this, I have already send $500 to the vendors, and am being asked to send $500 more to with the promise of being payed back with interest. However I was skeptical to make the 2nd payment with bitcoin, which I denied since I'm not familiar with crypto whatsoever. I still have yet to get this sorted out and get set up after nearly 2 weeks, and have been dreading that this may be a scam. I can't find anything anywhere else to confirm this, but this entire interaction has been incredibly stressful, seems extremely suspicious, and has left me very paranoid.
