Report

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I was contacted via Facebook chat for a virtual assistant position and offered employment and benefits. But, they wanted me to provide all of my personal information and I did not feel comfortable with that so they told me that they had my information and that I would be able to just simply verify it. They surprisingly have my social security number and my credit card information! And, they took $500 from my credit card account.

A so-called company grabs your job search info from online. Emails and texts you saying you've been chosen to interview for a position with their company. Is evasive about the job description and salary. It ends up being a "round Robin interview" with numerous candidates to apparently get your email and phone number for their marketing data. Then you don't hear back from them, although they state they'll get back with you within 24 hours. Very underhand and deceptive. Beware!

I was offered a position, and then told I needed to send money for the computer equipment.

I sent money by cashapp, and then deposited money into a bitcoin machine.
