I was texted a hello, nothing else. So, I respond hi, who is this. They then reveal they are recruiter, and I promptly inform them that they can reach me by email if they wish to make an offer. She ignored my text, gave the info, then asked to share my number through whatsapp. I immediately reaffirmed to contact by email and am now placing this report because there has been no response affirming or rejecting my request. They are either unprofessional or just a scammer because I made it clear multiple times and it is not an unreasonable request.

It's clear this is a scam - they didn't address me by name or mention where they got my info, immediately asked for a resume but without any detail of the role, etc. Their website seems to be like from the 1990s and no real info on any of the team members (nor are they in linkedin, which is strange for recruiters). Didn't respond to this but googled the name and go this scam report that was previously submitted.

Hi,

Hope you’re doing well. I wanted to get in touch regarding a unique opportunity. For their recently acquired company, one of our private equity customers is looking for a candidate to fill the position of Chief Transformation Officer. An outside third-party agency recommended you to me, and I believe your background is a perfect fit for this position.

Please reply to this email with your resume if you are interested. I’ll work with our client and get back to you with further information about the next step. Just to be clear, there is no charge for candidates.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

I received an email from my cvcc email (******* ****** community college) stating that CVCC was working with this charity and they were offering an assistant part time position. I clicked on the link and filled out the information, they asked for my email and phone number. I the received an email. They then asked for my resume and a copy of my driver license for verification. I sent that information to them, before I got a uneasy feeling and inquired to my college about it.

I received an unsolicited email from "Sarah Williams" at PE Talent Seek. Email was generic and highly suspicious, there is no such company on LinkedIn, and the website is highly suspect. Did some research online and discovered other scam reports by the same "person" at this same "company." Flagged the email as a scam and am reporting them here as well.

Was contacted by an "HR person" with the company - Holly Williams - regarding a job opportunity. Nothing initially alerted me - website seemed valid, etc...so sent my resume. I received a positive response with several openings and a series of general interview questions. This is where I started to question, as the various openings (Call Center Operator, Junior Accountant, Multitask Manager) all paid identical - $30/hr. But, the questions did not require any personal/identifying info, so I submitted. The next email I got was a complete job offer for a Call Center Operator role - offer letter, details on benefits, etc... No interview by phone/zoom/in-person. No other contact. No background check/drug screen. BUT, the email required I send a copy of my "Official Identification" such as Driver's License. When I dug further into the address, turns out it is a co-location office...not really "their" office. I responded to them that it was obviously a scam, and never heard back. *** I have kept the emails should they be needed***

They texted about an interview and then emailed a job offer with a 15 day training period. They emailed a bunch of information about the job and had me fill out an acceptance payroll form. I called the numbers given and only AI answers. Never spoke to a person and when I emailed to have them call me they stopped responding to me.

The scammer invited me to an interview with them for the next day at 12pm EDT via zoom, claiming that I had made a job application to them, and then provided a suspicious link to "comfirm" the inivitation. Another text also claimed they would be sending an email invitation as well, and then signed off as Laura FCS. I had applied to numerous jobs on linkedin a moment earlier so my suspicion is that this scammer took my information from a fake job post.

The full text reads: Hi. (my name) - You're invited to interview with Full Circle Solutions regarding your recent job applicaion, tomorrow at 12pm EDT via Zoom. Click Here to confirm http://appriv.net/?i=Z77Gk1GR

An email invitation has also been sent to you with further information. We hope to hear from you shortly | Laura FCS.

I received an unprompted email from a "recruiter" at PE Talent Seek, saying they had seen my profile and knew that I was looking for a COO role, and they had a client who they believed I would be a fit for. They asked that I send my resume back to them. I did not reply or go further as I'm in cybersecurity and know the signatures of a phishing attempt. Their website exists but is problematic and clunky.

I responded to their job listing ad with my resume via Craigslist (https://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/ofc/d/los-angeles-executive-assistant-to-...⇄ and they contacted me back, "interviewed" me twice (30 mins each call) saying they had a recording of the interview and then wanted to hire me very quickly. I believe they may very well be fraudulently misusing my personal data and obtaining my voice recordings for fraudulent purposes. Or trying to "onboard new hires" to obtain bank information for fraud. The "company" which has no legit CEO or employee footprint online even though they say they were founded in 2020 according to their (very primitive) website and have 200 employees. No official address or phone numbers. No social media or LinkedIn. Also, the recruiter Spencer Cruz who "interviewed" me twice has two strange profiles which look very fake and uses two different names: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61565608074273 https://ph.linkedin.com/in/laurence-salvo-56a818333

There was a LinkedIn job posting for a part-time VA. LinkedIn even included this job posting in their emailed job alerts, as I was not actively searching but was receiving emails from LinkedIn with jobs similar to my interests. I applied and they scheduled a video interview.

They interviewed me via a Zoom link, which I saved.

Then they said they wanted to do a background check and had me submit my driver's license front & back via:

Secure Upload Link: https://echocraftdigital.com/secure-upload/ Password: ************** They offered a VA role, and asked me to sign a contract. I did not and asked them for verification details. At that point, they never wrote again.
