Provided a fake job offer to try and get a e check cashed for $2650.

I was applying for jobs online .... I received an email from [email protected]. I was told my resume was reviewed and I was a great candidate for the positions they were offering. I was told to install "Signal" and given a phone number/name to add to contacts and reach out to this person, Jeanine Jacobsen from Cisco. I went through a whole interview process on Signal, a messaging app. I was “accepted” and they then said they would be mailing an over night check to my home that was to be used for "materials, supplies, etc" that I would need for the online/at home job. I got suspicious when they talked about this check coming and thought it was too good to be true. I immediately searched online and found this is a SCAM and they luckily only got my name/email address./phone number and the name of my bank which they stated at the end of the interview was to verify that bank name was necessary to ensure they could do direct deposit with this bank.

I immediately texted them that I was looking online and found reports of this being a "scam" and I was told it was not. When I started asking other questions and threatened to report this, they immediately stopped responding to me or answering questions. I then contacted my bank to advise them of this possible scam and then proceeded to contact BBB.

They have all my information all of it. They would call when a package didn’t get sent out on time. I have receipts. I have phone numbers and emails. They have a website that shows what you send out and how you get paid. They also say send this out on time get high pay , don’t be late or no pay.

I was contacted by a recruiter for hussie Models via text message and asked what was required for the hiring process. The recruiter told me there would be questions and I would need to send a few pics but no nudes. So I send her all of my personal information that would be on an employment application and she then says now I have to send full nudes. I question this because it's clearly stated no nude photos. I tried to call the recruiter but she didn't answer and told me she was going to black list me because I was trying to understand why she said no nudes but now it requires nudes for hiring. She told me she was going to label me as a scammer claiming I had no intent on applying for the job when I already sent all my information before she stated nudes were required. She told me she has the ScamPulse.com in her contacts and encouraged me to try and report her. She didn't answer my calls, all interactions were done through text and because I didn't send nudes to some random person texting me she threatened to defame my name on the US model search saying I would be listed as a scammer because I couldn't get an accurate explanation of the hiring process.

Approached young individuals with interviews for an on-site training marketing position working with large nonprofit organizations such as Amnesty International. Asked for name, address, and phone number in first “interview” and pushed to immediately schedule another interview for the next day.

For a company that says they’ve only been around for a year, they talk about these large contracts they have. They are also supposed to be a marketing firm but their company social media has no followers and little content. Their website is stock and basic with no team introduction or any noted awards.

I applied for a Tutoring job on INDEED. The next day I got a text from the job and they told me to add their number to my MS TEAMS app for interview. I did. The interview lasted 30 minutes and was all text through MS TEAMS app. I was told to get on MS TEAMS the next morning at 8am to see if I got the job. I did get on Teams and the same guy said I was hired and will be working for BANIJAY Group out of Paris France. 40,00 hr tutoring BANIJAY Employees' children. he said all equipment would be sent to me but then said I would receive a CHECK and was to deposit it into my bank and send him a photo of the deposit That's when I knew it was a SCAM. HE HAS MY PHONE, ADDRESS and EMAIL!!!!!!

Job offer found on indeed claiming to scan medical records for a remote position that they’d be sending me equipment for job after sending all my personal info they then would start onboard process but only one number worked for entire business and any time I spoke with someone they weren’t allowed to help or tell me anything and even told me they had no manager at some point and my only point of contact would be one person. Who wouldn’t explain why everything they were doing was so sketchy but wanted me to fill out more and send more information for them to finish process. Big language barrier makes it seam a bit more sketchy because it’s apparently based in California but the numbers to company didn’t match address numbers. The location online looks like a ware house and then I knew something was up when the alleged manager of which ever department told someone to email me and gave me a number to WhatsApp to speak with them.

It was a job offer, everything seemed legit until, I was asked to print out a check, then I knew it was a scam.

They set up a job position through the baldwin county alabama for lost and found animals. They put me through an interview, never provided a phone number or anything about the company, sent over a check that had no address or phone information about the company and wanted me to deposit it. I did. And then had me download telegram to have me send a photo back showing me that I did it. Then they pushed me to spend my own money for materials. I said I wasn’t doing it. That’s about where it ended. View the attached photo of check

Person acted like an HR representative for Steris offering a job and sending fake I-9s, W4s etc.

I found out about scam by contacting Steris and confirming if the job offer was correct. They confirmed person does work there but someone else is acting as them and scamming people.

This business I worked for did not pay me. They keep on sending fake transactions. Never came into my bank account. They are not responding now to my emails.

They texted me saying they had a data entry work from home job paying really well. To conduct an interview I had to download Microsoft teams. Where they asked questions and then sent me a cashiers check for !2500 dollars to purchase equipment. Like a computer etc. and then said I could keep the rest. The check was fraud. I asked at the bank. Don’t fall for it!

I received a message on MSG from a person named Mr. Frank, who had reviewed my résumé and got me an interview. He told me to install private messenger and gave me a code for my interview after I finish the interview a few minutes later, they told me I was hired. The next day they asked for my full name, address, city, state, ZIP Code, cell, email, front and back picture of my ID, and a headshot photo of myself. It started seeming sketchy that they hired me so fast and that they where gonna send me a huge sum of money to buy materials. So I started my research.

This was for an online job, Jordan Johnson contacted me through telegram gave me instructions he sent me a check for $4900. Wanted it deposited into my own personal account but through the atm only and then give him a copy of my receipt that I deposited in to. I told him I wasn't putting it into my personal account I'll open a new account and he then told me no i was crazy the conversation has been saved.

I was approached off of LinkedIn, and had a text interview over Zoom. The mans name was Retna Sedweave. He got a picture of my ID, & my address. They sent a check to my email to purchase supplies for the job. I had a gut feeling it was too good to be true & I’m very glad I got on here.

- Pensacola, FL, USA

Thought I had a work from home job. Was told equipment would get sent to me. I knew something was up when I was asked to print the check from my home computer. I said I was uncomfortable with that so they said they would mail me the check. I got the check in the mail, and I called the bank to verify the check. It was a fake, so I am glad I didn't deposit that check. The woman that I was communicating with was basically telling me to deposit the check anyways. I told her that she was on the BBB, and not in a positive light. Still waiting on a response.
