I applied for a job on indeed for a work from home position. I was contacted a few days later by someone named Jessica White who was the head of HR for Hill Place Realty. She wanted to set up a phone interview. After we completed the phone interview a couple days later she emailed me saying that I received the position. I then had to fill out paperwork to be hired and to be paid. For the position I was "hired" for was a real estate assistant. She then had me add her on what'sapp to keep in touch and then the next week I began training. It all seemed normal at first typical things an assistant would need to do. Then she just sent me a message stating what my next task for training would be and it just doesn't sound right. So I did some research and found someone else had reported the same number as a job scam. I didn't lose any money but they were able to get personal information that employers would typically ask for

Elite CXS posted a Mystery Shopper job on Indeed.com. I applied and was accepted to become a Mystery Shopper. Elite uses only your credit cards to wire money into your credit cards. Once the money is sent to your credit card, Elite sends you to purchase gift cards, example I purchased 1,000 worth of Apple Store gift cards on my credit cards on the same day the wire or phone transfer was in process. I sent photo of the gift cards and receipt. The wire transfer was declined and I was out 1000. They said that it was an error and tried to phone money into my credit cards again, this time from different banks, and the phone transfer was declined again. Somehow Elite CXS was able to link their Wells Fargo bank to my Capital One credit card without my knowledge. I received an email from Capital One and I called right away to cancel and replace my credit card. Elite CXS is a complete Scam using your credit cards to laundry money.

This person sent an offer letter for a position. First she sent a link to do a test about the position she were offering. It was in the official website of the company. I guess they hacked it. It was so professional and they were using all the branding so I thought it was real until she made the offer without any interview

He sent me a check for 2k to purchase my equipment for work. And the check came back as returned and I had to pay returned check fee.

I was sent a job offer via text 1/3/2023 and the text stated: Good morning, I am Mr. James Smith from (Thirty Madison. )…Your resume has been reviewed for the position of an Administrative Assistant, Data Entry, IT Project, Management, Clerical Assistant and Customer Service and would like to invite you to an interview and we pay nothing less than $30.50 hourly, Kindly reply 'YES' if you are still interested in more info...Thank you.“ I replied yes and then the conversation moved to Zoom text, which raised an eyebrow for me because I never seen a legitimate company ever do this. I was able to get a screenshot of the bogus convo, and what stood out was they told me I would be getting a check for supplies for work I never done. Then asked who I bank with, which was another red flag. Also employers usually don’t want to talk and chat all day after they provided a congratulations you were qualified and hired response. They almost got me but my brain started working after a while.

I was supposed deliver packages to FedEx and ups and I dont feel safe no more I think I am being scammed and I have lost time money and my indentity is compromised.

Contacted me via email through an Indeed application for a remote shipping job. Salary at $2400 + bonuses. I figured it was a scam once packages started coming in and seeing that on the USPS site that there is no legitimate reshipping company.

Was offered a job position through email. Was sent employment contract, tax documents, and there was legitimate work. After "30 day probationary period" all contacts disappeared and email sent that a paycheck was sent in the mail. I never received that paycheck.

Liveops advertising as at home customer service representative position. Applied, received interview acceptance and it turned into ongoing stream of next steps. Paid for a background check then was directed to complete an online enrollment through oforce.com to complete enrollment. Oforce sent a link from [email protected] to set up for payment. (Direct deposit or debit card method) This seemed legit but much too shady to provide all personal information for payroll process. I continue to receive the same computer generated email and text message reminding me to complete the enrollment process.

Was offered employment Through this company told me I’d get a salary of 3150 a month plus bonuses for receiving and shipping out packages May pay day has came and I’m no longer able to log into the account nor have I been able to reach anyone they have a website with a email and number

A person calling himself Alex Richard reached out to me via text message saying that they had reviewed my indeed resume and that I had been scheduled for an online interview through an app called Signal. After chatting with them for a moment they asked for my name, sex, email, and phone number. They also tried to get my banking institution and address.

Was contacted via text after applying to jobs on careerbuilder.com. Text advised me to us google chat and contact m*************************. I did, ***** ******* asked me 20 interview questions, very well written and with out errors. then asked me to wait for response as they were sending my interview responses to the head of the hiring department. I received response that I was a great fit and hired. Was then explained benefits and job expectation as well as training schedule and equipment needs. Was advised equipment would be provided via a company approved vendor. They were going to email me a check made out to me that I could deposit electronically via my bank app and I was to use this to purchase my equipment. ***** asked me for my daily deposit limit and I told her I was not comfortable releasing my banking information. Shortly after I was blocked and communication ceased.
