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.

- New York, NY, USA

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.

- Malden, MA, USA

Sent me a strange email requesting a resume. This is the email "Hope you're doing well. I wanted to get in touch regarding a unique opportunity.

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.

This was a work from home administrative support position. The responsibilities would include:

Receive and distribute mail to clients

Receive and distribute invoices to clients

Prepare and distribute correspondence

Answer email from clients directing them to the appropriate unit.

I was also told that I needed to download telegram messaging to complete the employment application. This is not the first time this type of job has been offered. I got caught up in a job similar to this, but I think it was a different name at the time. I got contacted by the Postmaster General about it being a scam.

Tried to schedule a Zoom interview with me… I had never applied to the company.

- Fort Worth, TX, USA

I applied to their job posting through Indeed. The job offer did seem a bit too good to be true. They had a few people contact me via Email asking to fill out a W-9 and sign an Employee Agreement form. Unfortunately, they did receive my SSI number, home address, and my bank account information.

- Marion, VA, USA

It was a too good to be true job offer and they sent me forms to fill out and a w-4. So they did get my social security number and my direct deposit information
