Company does NOT pay overtime hours. You will work 8-15 hrs on your feet, no breaks, no lunches, and if you're asked to stay and itll put you in OT, they just won't pay you anything at all on that OT pay. Even if your management team requests you to stay.

Texted me about a job opening that is remote. Had me download the Telegram app for an interview just through texting which I found strange. They asked typically interview questions but also asked about my financial institution so I could receive payment. Seemed suspicious.

I received an email about a job offer to work for Atlantis Consulting. Customer Service Officer was the name of the job/position offered. the email had 2 attachments for reading, filling in and returning to the HR department. There was also an online registration they referred to as a Work Panel for a phone interview. I received an email to schedule my phone interview with HR. The phone interview lasted for approximately 30 minutes. A few days later I received a congratulatory email stating that I was chosen to begin training. I was given access to the company website where I uploaded my drivers license, signed an I9 work verification document and signed an work contract. Training consisted of completing web searches and entering the requested info into an adobe acrobat form and uploading to the Atlantis work panel. I was instructed to download the messaging app Signal for fast and easy communication with my manager. I began to question the manager about the validity of the company . After my questions I no longer received correspondence from the manager and could no longer log in to the Atlanis Consulting employee website.

I applied to their fake job on LinkedIn and they sent a fake check to me claiming that they were going to pay for a brand new laptop. They were waiting for me to try and cash the check so that they could hack into my bank account and steal my money. Everyday they rushed me to cash the check.

Germon Investments LLC has a website that appears to be for a software-as-a-service company with years of experience, yet the company is only known to have one manager named Filho Geraldo B Monteiro, and no staff, including Monteiro, can be found on any social media platform. I was contacted by Ganesh Dalvi who provided the following link to a job description which is oddly enough the only publicly available job description for the company: https://germoninvestmentsllc.com/hr/Position_Description.pdf. Note that the URL is generalized to hr/Position_Description even though the position described in the link is for a Jr Service Assistant.

Another indicator at potential fraud is this comment posted by Kaz M. on www.bizapedia.com for Germon Investments LLC:

"Scam. Joining this company they will ask you to receive ACH funds to your account. With those funds, you will buy bitcoin for their customers. Within 30 days your account will be flagged as fraud and closed due to the transactions being used with stolen funds. You will then be responsible for the funds and this company will disappear and not respond to you for help. They are not a legit company. Please do not join."

Company posted listing on indeed, company then sent out an email to begin application process. After process was complete, they sent out direct deposit info. After that training began. During training they resch out stating they would need to use my bank account to transfer money to a broker. Honestly, that sounds a lot like being a mule, i proceeded to explain my discomfort, and how illegal that scenario was. No money was transfered luckilly, but not everyone has the knowledge to know better. I have not heard back since.

Offered a work from home job. Did a text interview through the app Signal. They used the name Jennifer Coleman until the number of 513-549-3801. They offered the job and emailed me a check for $3100 for office supplies. At the time I thought I would be buying them myself. From there they are me to Venmo and Zelle multiples different weird account names. Luckily only the first one worked and that was $500. They tried getting me to wire transfer the money back or put them into gift cards. I didn’t want to do those because I know it’s related to fraud. I contacted my bank and asked them to send back the original check back to whatever bank account it came from. In the process I still lost $500 but I am glad I caught on with out them doing more damage.

They posted a job for $27/hr as a remote receptionist on LinkedIn. After I applied I received a text message from them saying “Good morning! My name is Kristen from Calista Therapeutics, Inc (www.calistatherapeutics[.]net). I'm reaching out to you in regards to your job application for the position of a remote data entry clerk. We are pleased to invite you to interview for this position. The rate of pay for this role will be $27 per hour. If you are interested in this position, please send your resume to my email address hr@calistatherapeutics[.]net . I look forward to hearing from you soon.” I did not end up emailing the resume as when I applied on LinkedIn it was automatically sent. I deleted and blocked the number.

Received an unsolicited text from Crystal "from the HR team at Pulse". They claimed to have reviewed my resume and wanted to set up an interview via Zoom. I never applied for a job at Pulse, and their website is very generic. I'm guessing that they are an MLM scam that acquires our data from job sites. I received a call from 347-514-6772 and did not pick up. Crystal texted me again that she is trying to reach me. This is clearly a scam company.

Fred Russell, World Vision Organization is attempting to make me a personal assistant, and has sent me a check for $2,800 to cash for both my salary and for the needs of what I must purchase in his behalf. I checked on the bank and found no pertinent info on it. Quite sure it's a scam
