- Bloomfield, CT, USA

I applied for a remote job and was contacted to set up an interview with a Mrs. Bella Okopio, via email from Jeff.

The instructions were to contact “her” through signal to set up an interview. It was quick and vague and I was told I scored an 8.9 out of 10 (on what though) it seemed fishy so i waited for the other shoe to drop. When they said they’d send me a check to purchase the products (computer, printer etc.) I had fallen for a similar scam before. Never again. Watch out! They also seemed very unprofessional and did not answer my questions.

After applying on Indeed I was asked to complete the next step which was a personality survey through WorkWolf. Dave Sechler from IMI Integrated messaged me the next step which was:

INTERVIEW INSTRUCTIONS

The interview will be conducted through the messaging platform Signal, which can be downloaded from either the Google Play Store or the App Store. You may also download Signal directly from the web. In order to schedule an interview with our Hiring Manager, Mrs. Bella Okopio, please add her to your Signal contacts at (7865458115 )

Thank you again for your interest in Glades Gas Inc. We hope to hear from you soon.

Best regards,

Glades Gas Inc

Not being totally familiar with current hiring methods I downloaded the app and texted with Bella about the position. After a few minutes was told I got the job but the communication was lacking specifics and did

not seem like a professional way to hire at all. I have not heard from them since and did report the job on Indeed.

I was emailed about a job offer and to connect through teams chat. At the end of the chat Arnold Duncan said that they would send me a check in the mail for all equipment and software I purchase for working for them. I told him that I don’t have the money and told me to come back into the teams chat box the next morning the check in.

They emailed me requesting my bookkeeping services in order to take care of weekly payment for some subcontractors. Then asked me to spend in some office supplies like blank checks, printer, etc. then every Friday they/he email me a list of subcontractors with their names, phish al address as well as a bank info to create the checks, print them and mail them with tracking numbers. So far I’ve paid more than 10k to those pretending subcontractors and I haven’t received any money for my work. Almost all subcontractors address and banks info do really exist so Ive could proceed to print and mail the checks but the one to pay to me has been rejected for my bank. So ha made me believe that he/she/they’re using my services to laundry money at my own expenses.

I received a text message regarding a data entry job paying 25 dollars and hour which I did not recall applying for. The message asked me to join a Teams Link for an interview with a Tommy Seth Hiring manager after searching this person on LinkedIn the profile that came up was a profile that had sent me a connection request a few days prior and certainly not a hiring manager or any company I applied to.

a job offer has all my personal information was supposed to pay me salary on oct 9 and nov 7 3488 per month had me sign a 1099 and legal agreemant all my personal information

- Feasterville Trevose, PA, USA

Exact same thing as the other person who experienced this. Saw a job poster in my college, unsure about why my college allowed this scam job to be posted. Sent them an email. Scammer first texted me using a fake phone number, then asked for an interview using Skype. Scammer texted very strangely, like a robot. I thought it would be a phone/video call, but the interview was purely texts, and the scammer sometimes repeated questions that was already asked before. In the end, I got the job. Was asked to purchase some stuff, searched them up and was confused because I couldn't exactly find them online. I told them this, and they said don't worry, ask [email protected] for the materials, they will let you know the cost and send them to you with your name customized on them. Now I will block them. Please protect yourselves guys.

They first contacted through an online WhatsApp message offering a job. They provided link to login and job required making some deposits and completing tasks. after completing the task, all deposits plus commission can be withdrawn. It continued for a few weeks until I sinked so much money but could not withdraw any money eventually. They have whatsapp group of 22 people of mostly ontario numbers but could be same one or few people.

They pretend they are an advertisement company. They get you to do ‘tasks’ and then you get $,84.00 but to continue working for them, you have to ‘top up’ your account to $110.00. Obviously this makes no sense., but imagine how many people fall for this. There is also another company doing this trying to portray that they are working for Bookings website. And you’re supposed to do fake reviews. These people are so sick. I hope you can shut them down..

I could literally copy and paste the other complaint on this Robert Cooper. I'm so angry with myself for giving him a copy of my license and social security card.

They asked me to open a personal checking account for investments. It all seemed fine and good, I started writing reports, making them sales lists... regular work throughout the first week.

Then they wanted me to open a personal bank account, ask for the account withdrawal limits ... and I smelled fish right there, and berated them, and I'm looking for other employment. I doubt they are legitimate, asking their employees to ... do business through their own bank accounts. That doesn't seem right. So I told them I will work for them if I get paid, I'll do actual WORK, but I will not pull out cash or any nonsense, that's where I draw the line. I don't know if they're fraudulent or not. I'm not a financial professional. So I'll leave it to the experts.

I was contacted about a data entry position after applying on indeed. I downloaded the signal app which I thought was weird. Then from there went through the process when they said they needed my name and address to send me a check to be able to purchase my equipment as well as a video of me stating that I wasn’t going to use the money for anything else. And that the equipment would be mine after a year.

The person reached out to me after i applied for the job two months ago. I was notified by text and teams but zoom or FaceTime call at any point of the conversation. I got approve pretty quickly they ;didn't ask for my resume again like other jobs would do. The employers allegedly names are Steven James and Katherine .

They posted jobs under a business claiming to not be hiring, and when I accepted the zoom meeting it was a travel agent scam. It was not the job listing I had applied for and she even made a point during the seminar to show all the "job titles you might have applied for" in a side menu.
