Email received for WFH job oppurtunity from Nexit Software. Sent employee agreement. They requested image of DL & W4 tax form w/ Social security #. Next days requested install of Telegram for communications. Requested thru telegram a task to receive $6,000 of Bitcoin to bank account to purchase equipment like laptop, scanner etc.. I refused that, then next day through Telegram requested to purchase gift cards for their employees they would send funds for. I didnt reply and after researching URL and other fraud alerts it wasnt legit. I didnt complete any transactions w/ them but did send copy of DL & Social # on tax form W-4.

They offered me a position to project manager after I applied for one on Indeed. They offered training and good pay, nothing to outragauroes, but still good. They had me send over my ID for background check and had me do "training", it started out innocuous but quickly devolved to them trying to get more personal information out of me and my bank account.

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.

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***

I never applied for a job with this business. But they have been scam calling me and texting me almost every day the past couple of weeks. They are wanting to get in contact with me about the job I applied for, I don't know how they got my number or details. I saw they had an ad on Indeed but the business is false and they call multiple times a day.

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.
