I would run for the hills. Were you asked to deposit any funds into the account while opening it, if so, remove the funds and close the same. Normally, with any home based job, the legitimate ones that is, they will not ask you to set up an bank account.
However, certain companies are known for preferring a certain mode of transaction, so the first thing that you need to do is not to transfer any funds into that account. Then you need to verify thje credentials of this company, get a phone number - landline based one, not cell phone. Then call the number to see that it is the concerend company and not a fake number. Then you can tell this company to send you a check or send you funds via paypal, as either should be more than feasible with a real company. Hope that helps.
