Inuutial email recd on my Penn state email address . Scammer posing as Professor Avanzato offering a part time internship. When I responded I am interested I was reached on my cell phone and given a trial task. At the completion of the trial task was offered the job. He obtained in the process my resume which has my personal details such as address emsil and phone

Then also requested my bank details such as routing and checking number

Sent me a photo of the front and back of a check to deposit . I deposited the money

Only then felt something is fishy so googled

Now understand this as a scam

The company is pretending to be a staffing company, targeting corporations and individuals. They are using information from legit companies, including, falsified documents indicating diversity status.

I was approached by text by a person named Laura regarding open positions for “Full Circle Solutions”. I was then corralled into a group interview, hosted by a Scottish man named “Ryan”, where the microphone function was turned off and we had to turn on our video. We were given vague descriptions about immersive events and then we were asked to fill out questionnaires in a short period of time. We were told only those who filled the questionnaire would go on to the “next round” and shortly after the the phone call was ended. I did not give them any further information but I did have my time wasted and I’m afraid others may become victims to phishing scams. Lastly I cannot locate a legitimate website for Full-Circle-Soultions inc.

Below is the questionnaire: **************************************

Got an email about a job

Asked that i download signal to speak to the Hiring Manager - Hannah Moore

Downloaded signal and spoke to “her” but the whole conversation was off. They tried to get my personal details so they could send me “work equipment”. At that point u decided to do some research about the company. Realized it’s a scam

They contacted me about a job application through indeed to be a data entry specialist. Diane Norman texted me from 6308399670, asked me to download the signal app, and then I was talking to Stacy Tirado on Signal. I was given some basic info about the company and then told the whole interview would be through Signal. I was sent series of questions and at the end decided to google Stacy Tirado and found nothing about her. Then I googled 4244292709 and saw somebody else’s experience with this number which was very similar to mine. The other person said a check was sent to them to buy supplies for the new job but then it bounced and they were asked to pay out of pocket.

I received a text message from the number (713)-955-9777 from a woman named Ashley advising that Veridian Global received my application and would like to schedule an interview through Zoom. I attended the "interview", in the zoom call, there were about 190 people attending, The "hiring director" did not advise his name and said that the job salary would be $70,000.00 salary, direct deposit weekly and the job would not require any type of monitoring as this would be done on our own time. He advised the zoom interviewees to be prepared to pay for a certification since the job is regulated by the government. He said the cost would average up to $200 and that we are to not go outside of the company to get the certification. He then advised to go to this website: http://www.veridianbio.com and fill out the form and it would determine if the applicant would proceed to the next hiring steps.

I applied for a nursing job via Indeed. I got a text message at 6:09 PM, which should have been my first clue. Text message came from 571-543-8835 identified himself as Sourav from Pacer Staffing. I looked him up online and found a LinkedIn and FB for Sourav Garg for Pacer Staffing. We set up a time to interview for the job and he never called. So I googled the company and found a website called the number it took several rings to answer and when the person answered they had broken English and did not identify the company it was apparent that this company was not legit.

Same as all the other reviews, here. Approached about a remote data entry position by someone supposedly named Christine Patterson (HR Assistant). Googled and found a whole bunch of old stuff, including a bankruptcy court doc also listing Martin Shkreli?!, but the website doesn’t populate in Google search. Got a little sketched when “Christine” said we could proceed without me seeing “the offer letter”.
