While searching for freelancing opportunities I was approached by someone claiming to be Richard Stevens, a Marketing Sales Supervisor at Elexva. The role involved posting rental ads and managing property-related transactions, with $920 weekly pay for working three-five hours daily. An upfront $180 registration fee was required for a company application fee (???).

As the conversation unfolded, inconsistencies arose, including a change in the individual's name from Robert Stevens to Robert Richard. These discrepancies, along with the request for upfront payment, raised concerns about the legitimacy of the offer.

I was approached with a job ad and was told to download an app called signal for an “interview” via chat. From there they asked for bank info, personal info and other things. I was smart enough not to give more info but it was all too fishy so I picked up quick and screenshot everything and blocked them.

Subject: Urgent: Data Breach and Scam Alert - Immediate Action Required

Dear BlueRock Therapeutics and LinkedIn Teams,

I'm writing to bring to your attention a critical and urgent matter regarding a data breach and attempted scam I experienced on April 9, 2025. A scammer impersonated Michael Conway from BlueRock's HR department, contacting me via phone and email about a fake job offer.

Incident Details

1. Fake job offer: The scammer sent a convincing job offer with benefits and payment details.

2. Fake e-check: I received a fraudulent e-check for $3400.00.

Concerns and Questions

1. Lack of transparency: Why didn't BlueRock Therapeutics publicly warn potential victims despite being aware of the scam?

2. Data breach: How did the scammers access my LinkedIn profile and obtain my personal data?

Demands for Immediate Action

1. Investigate and address security vulnerabilities: Take immediate action to prevent further incidents.

2. Public warning: Issue a public warning about the scam to protect potential victims.

3. Strengthen data protection policies: Review and enhance data protection policies to prevent similar incidents.

Conclusion

This incident highlights significant concerns about data security and transparency. I expect prompt action from both companies to address these issues.

Sincerely,

**********
