Got contacted via text by Lisa Valdes from Cintas at this phone number 559-236-7647 with a job opportunity to be a work from home Data Entry Clerk with a payrate of $28 an hour. I should've known that would be too good to be true but I'm a sucker and gave my email address to accept a Google Hangout/Chats from Natasha Stones at [email protected]. I answered basic interview questions and after saying that I got the job, she mentioned that they would be sending a check over to cover my expenses for working from home. She also asked what kind of payment I would prefer like either direct deposit, wire or check. She also mentioned training the next morning and I said I couldn't do that without getting some type of official offer. She said a letter would be emailed to me by the end of the week. I never officially said I would accept the job. And now today I got a check in the mail for $2450 from someone named Cassandra Ferguson from the Payment Department and she wanted me to text her or email her to say if I received the check and if I cashed it This was the contact info she gave me 253-289-0132 [email protected]. I tried calling her but it only went to voicemail. I've reported all of this to the FTC but man what a scam. I should've recognized those red flags earlier.

Never even applied for a job. They must've farmed my info from a job board. Was contacted by Anita Coleman who claimed she was from Cintas. They offered me $28/hr to work remotely as a Data Entry Clerk. She told me to reach out to Michael Funch via Skype. It seemed too good to be true, but I did and as I waited for him to respond I looked him up on Google. Thanks for keeping me from wasting my time guys. :)

I also was contacted by Anita Coleman who claimed she was a recruiter for Cintas this was via a text from phone number (443)779-5883. I was made the same offer of $28/hr to work from home as a Data Entry Clerk/Customer Service rep. She told me that I would be paid $19/hr during my training period. She said that the HR Interviewer Michael Funch would contact me via Skype. He did contact me via Skype but only messaged me no face to face. He went through his interview process and told me that i scored a 9 out of 10. He told me to log onto my computer at work the next morning at 8 am and my trainer would contact me. It was just to fishy for me that I never spoke or saw a person. I texted Anita the next day and told her that I was not going to use my work computer to log into for training as that was inappropriate. I also told her that I had reconsidered and would not be accepting the position. She said they had already mailed me a check to cover my computer related expenses so I told her I would return it when I received it. She did not respond.
So three days went by and I received a check for $3,989.69
The return address did not even have Cintas on it - it was from Colorado Springs, CO There was nothing in the envelope but a check, no paperwork or anything. The check was from a real estate company in New York that I looked up on the internet and the bank was a Bank in New York and the routing number checked out.
I did message Anita back and asked her which of the 3 addresses I was to send the check back to and she did not answer.
Note: If it sounds too good to be true ... it is!

I was contacted via text to download telegram and then did an interview on there. I posted the conversation on there. They wanted me to deposit a check and then buy software. Luckily i realized it was fake before i gave them any information.

They asked for all my information. They interviewed me like it was a real job and sent me a check via my email of 3450 to purchase equipment for my job. Without a job offer or any other means. The email address seemed fake.

Same situation as stated above. Contacted by Anna Colon and sent a ID for Skype and had conversations with a Michael Funch and Michael Bennett. Got this bogus check in the mail with a random letter than didn't state Cintas anywhere on the letter. By the time I received the letter, I had already seen this site so I figured...time to waste their time and ruin their day. I told them I that the check must have been stolen off my door and if they could put a stop pay on it and reissue. Once I get that check, I'll figure out something else to say to piss them off. This is people's livelihood and when you mess with people's money... you should go to jail. Since I can't do that...I hope to keep them distracted for a little longer.

I have had a smiliar experience. I was contacted by Anna Colon (443-779-xxxx) about a job position. I then was sent over to Skype to chat with a Michael Funch. I did research on this and could not find in LinkedIn or interent search with their names. This is a scam.

Recently I’ve been job hunting on indeed & I got scammed. Since it’s a pandemic right now working from home is sorta like the norm now. So, I applied to multiple work from home jobs. I received a text about a job opportunity from Cintas from Anna Colon. She then give my information to the so called manager Dennis Albert. Who later gave my information to the so called training supervisor Harry Coleman. Anyway I was told that they will be sending a check in the mail to purchase my equipment for the job ? They started acting weird as [censored] about the check. They wanted me to deposit the amount of 3,380.00 quickly. I thought the company was legit because I looked at Cintas website. So I did a mobile deposit. The day after Harry told me he wanted me to send the money to Zelle to a specific vendor for the equipment ? I was like why a specific vendor? ? I tried calling him. Come to find out he has a text now number. So, I went on Cintas website & found the corporate information and contacted them. I was told they do not work from home. I immediately contacted my bank. I realize I was scammed. The bank stopped the transaction.

Received a text message: Hello, my name is Julio Vasquez and I am contacting you in regards to your resume been approved by our company CINTAS for the Customer Service/Administrative Assistant position from INDEED with a pay of $25/hr. You are required to contact HR on telegram. Download the app from your GooglePlay/App Store or telegram.org/dl Add the HR manager using his ID @Joannewhelton and send a message to him for the interview process. Your interview code is JWCT01. I did as instructed and spoke with Joanne Whelton. She asked a series of 10 interview questions. I asked the name of the company I was interviewing for. She stated it was BHRS (Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Services). Then she advice that I would get a response the next day as to if I was hired. Once she told me "congratulations" you were hired I stated asking questions. I asked where the company was located? Who is the CEO? What is the contact information of the company? She immediately left the conversation and deleted the whole conversation before I could take a screen shot. I was asked the name of my bank and how long I'd been with them. I was also asked the company I currently am employed with and how long I've worked for them, and the longest job I've had in the past. However no identifying #'s were given. I did give my first and last name at the time of the interview.

I'm reporting this so that way future potential employees aren't scammed.

I had applied on Indeed for their customer representative/office assistant job. A few weeks later I received a text message to download an app called telegram to go through an interview. I answered all the interview questions even provided my address and ID and then received a text asking for my Facebook account information for them to run ads using my account.

Good afternoon,
I received a text in regards to an application I thought to your company Cintas. They requested I communicate through Telegram which I found odd, but did already have the app on my phone for other reasons. I provided general information, but grew suspicious when I was told that I would receive a check via email to electronically deposit into my account to purchase equipment on behalf of the company to perform the tasks associated with the position. I attempted to locate the company to confirm that this is actually their hiring practice. After researching the information provided, and reading the responses and concerns outlined here, I believe that this opportunity was too good to be true. Please be careful moving forward when apply and responding to ads listing job opportunities and replies from individuals through uncertain means. I have been employed over 30 years and fell for this unconventional means of communicating.

I received a text to contact a Brittany Hoyle through telegram using this ID (https://t.me/BrittanyHoyle), so I did. She “interviewed” me. Then proceeded to ask me to deposit checks into my account & send the money to “vendors” through Venmo, CashApp & Zelle. She then asked me to pay out of pocket for part of the equipment. I started noticing something was off & she asked for a picture there of my drivers license, front and back. I asked for what & why she needed it. She said “because that’s how it’s done” i said “no. Give me my money back.” & she asked for my cashapp Information to supposedly deposit my funds & asked for the codes & my pins. I refused and she told me she was “the one that was in charge. And she told me what to do.”

I refused and she said she wasn’t going to give me money & was done arguing with me. & she’d seen if she’d give me some the next day. One of the checks that was sent I could tell had been washed. She sent me a total of 4 checks. 3 i deposited, one bounced. When I told her the check was clearly washed she told me she couldn’t make out another. I confronted her and she got hostile.

The Venmo, cashapp & Zelle names are as follow:

Venmo : Brandon-Wiese-15

Cashapp: $Sherrie19791

Zelle: Nick Wells ([email protected])

I also received the same email from Philona Hopkins who sent me a link to an app called telegram with an interview with a fake hiring manager named Glenn Elwood. It seems as though they are both located in the UK ( from the names) or native of the UK. Scam artist!

This is an email sent to me by Philona Hopkins. This is a scam.

Claiming to be Glenn Elwood and wants to hire you for a work at home position with Cintas. Then they send you checks to deposit supposit for equipment setup. The 1st is FedEx to you the rest emailed. You mobile deposit which I have never done but due to covid-19, I said ok. Once you deposit the 1st one is on hold, the ones to follow are immediately available and they have you send them to a supposit vendor. I kept record of everything because I have never worked from home and never made these sort of transactions. Again due to covid-19 companies are doing business differently that is how I got victimized by these jokers to begin with. They will ask you to download an app called telegram to communicate with you, but you can't call.

After weeks of applying for jobs and trying to get off unemployement after being laid off for COVID I tried to see if this was an actual offer. The "Interview Manager" gave an actually company website but when I called to company to confirm prior to giving information they informed me they did not have any affiliation with these people. They are taking advantage of desperate people trying to provide for themselves and family.
