I got an email from this woman telling me to contact another woman named Kathleen telling me she wanted to schedule an interview with me for the admin job I applied for. I responded to the email, stoked that I had heard from someone after weeks of nothing.

The email I had gotten responded to was this:

"Dear Hannah,

Thank you for getting in touch. This is a full-time position, but it can also be done on a part-time basis depending on your availability.

Your responsibilities will include but are not limited; running errands, supervising and monitoring, scheduling appointments and flights, and keeping me informed about my schedule. You will also act as my point of contact when I am unavailable, handle regular contacts, and oversee my financial activities.

I am a retired real estate attorney and entrepreneur. I sometimes invest in the real estate market which requires me to travel inside and outside of the state while I am working on different independent projects. I live about 15 miles away from your zip code, and I am 65 years old.

Currently, I am in Montreal, and I will return in two weeks for a formal interview with you and to fill out any required paperwork. Post COVID-19, this position does not require you to come into an office. I am willing to be flexible when it comes to fitting this role into your other commitments. The hours are flexible, and the salary is consistent, although some weeks may require more of your time.I do have some things that you can help me with this week if you are available.

You will be receiving $1550/week, health insurance, 401(k) plan, and paid time off, which we can discuss in further detail when we meet. If you are interested, please fill out the following to get started. You must reside and be eligible to work in the U.S.

Full Name:
Full Address:
Apt #:
City/State/ZipCode:
Mobile (For SMS):
Current Occupation:

I look forward to discussing this opportunity with you in a couple of weeks.

Best regards."

I'm not sure if it is a scam but it sounds to good to be true. Please be careful.

- Napa, CA, USA

Job listing asked me very extensive information about my identity and then afterward sent me a direct message informing me i would have to lift 150 pounds on the job.

- Birmingham, AL, USA

They had me send over resume and cover letter to consider why I am a good candidate for the position. With all my personal contact information. Then sent me an email two days later saying do I accept the job offer as a CSR/ Data entry with managing, organizing and scheduling different supplies, events and travel. With a pay of 25 a hour. They said I needed certain software to be able to secure my hours worked and scheduling for data entry position. That said they will pay for equipment because it has to be a Mac book and will send a check through mail or direct deposit with secure bank.

- Gainesville, FL, USA

Scammer offered a job but wanted me to pay for the equipment and refund later.

- Hiawassee, GA, USA

Money laundering/employment overpayment scam.

- San Jose, CA, USA

Applied through the online job search website called Indeed. The company was posing as AT&T, the listing stated as being a listing from AT&T for an account associate. I received a text message the next day from (747) 316-3394 stating once again that they were from AT&T and were contacting me in regards to the account associate position and were looking to schedule an interview. In the message they also included a second number to contact if I had any additional questions (408) 637-4962. I scheduled the meeting through zoom and continued to say they were from AT&T. The same afternoon they messaged me again saying they wanted to move me to the second phase of interviews with a different manager but this time in the message they stated they were from Tidal Management not AT&T. I looked up the company and saw reviews from other people stating a similar story saying they were impersonating Verizon to get you to submit applications with them.

An imposter that goes by Karen Luna offers a job however she doesn't want you to sign any legal employment documents. Instead she's wants you to cash a check that supposedly for equipment. 100 percent scam!

- New Iberia, LA, USA

I was contacted by a "recruiter" and then directed to Nexus Wifi's "HR Manager" using a code to "sort" my position. He went by Faulkner Michael Reuben, and proceeded to host an interview through text on the telegram app, in which he asked for me to respond swiftly after each text.

Told me to contact her on telegram account told emailed me a check and asked for my direct deposit for the payroll department.

I was recruited on Indeed.com about a potential sales/marketing position.

Two phone numbers were used.One phone number was local and the other was out of Sacramento,CA.

I was notified to either accept or deny the position.I chose to accept the offer on Sunday, 6/2/24.I was surprised that I received a text the same day they wanted to interview me which I thought was suspicious right away.I chose not to accept it so we changed the date to Tuesday,

6/4/24.The interview was conducted at 10:30am and lasted four minutes.I was told it would last 10-15 minutes.

The job description was extremely vague and he asked me questions I would have answered on a job application.He stated two of the biggest clients they partner with are Costco and AT&T.I was told I would receive notification of a second interview within 24 hours and that didn’t transpire.

- Eureka, CA, USA

I applied for a graphic design position on Indeed.com. A person by the name of Will Bryant reached out to me through email with detailed information about creating artwork for a COVID-19 education project he was working on. They gave examples and offered to sign contracts, paying upfront after seeing some of my work and agreeing to work together. I began designing them pieces and they refused to give any feedback on the artwork, later they said there was a Phase 2 of this project and they wished for me to take it on as well. I agreed, and they then sent a cashier's check of 13,600 for a total payment for both phase 1 and phase 2 of the agreement. After cashing the cashier's check at my local bank, they later said phase 2 was delayed and asked for a refund of 6,800. After clarifying with my bank, they stated the check never went through and had indeed been returned to the sender. The tracking number that was used for this cashier's check is #9405581589978627940071. This person operated within a reasonable manner for freelance graphic design work and while I was impressed by the charge amount, they volunteered information that led me to believe it could be legitimate work. Especially with a fake indeed profile.

Applying for jobs on indeed and thought the email seemed suspicious for a company. They texted and emailed asking to watch a TEAMS video. i did not do anything.

I applied for multiple (Remote from home) jobs on Indeed as a Data Analyst/Data Input Rep. I received a text message job alert from Jane Joseph phone # 1-854-254-4443 that my resume was reviewed and to reach out to the hiring manager via Telegram Messenger @RubalcalvaAguilar_Takis-Biotech_HR. I did this and had a very extensive questionnaire to fill out (my interview I guess). It seemed very professional and informative about the position. I then received an e-mail from Henry Thompson ([email protected]) a offer letter and onboarding paperwork which included a detailed job description wages and benefits, Honor Code/Privacy Policy/ W-4 tax (SSN) form and a direct deposit (checking acct info) form and request for a copy of my drivers license to be filled out and sent back. The recruiter claimed he was from Italy which the company is located and has US affiliates. They have all my private information now. I then was UPS NDA deliverd a check for $4991 (Zion LLC-Idaho location) to deposit in my bank account. It cleared bc it was less than $5000 (which I did not think of at time) Keep $150 sign on bonus and then (all through Telegram with Rabalcalva Aguilar) requested to PayPal JoshuaKolford1 (computer vendor) $1000 and then to get a money order for $3300 from Post office to send to Karen Figueroa at 515 Bellmar DR Houston TX 77037 via UPS NDA. Not do by post office it will take too long and requested no signatures at delivery. That all began red flags especially when the telegram contact kept rushing me and wouldn't send me any credentials of his etc. He did have my Resume from Indeed that he sent me. He was harassing all day long yesterday and day before. I notified my bank that I thought it was fraudulent (they are looking into it). I filed a report with FTC and Ohio District Attorney. The phone number of my so-called supervisor Alfred (740 number) I called went to a vague recording then this guys kept calling my phone non-stop while the telegram guy was getting upset with me for doubting him. In the mean time since I completed what he wanted me to there is another check enroute to my address for $4995 (for a software upgrade they forgot about the day before). It will be here 4/1/24 which I plan on taking to bank to give to them for an investigation. The Rubalcalva Aguilar thinks I am going to do what he asks on Monday so I am keeping in contact with him to not lose touch. I did download the whole Telegram conversation with him this past week to keep for evidence. Today he wanted me to Venmo $300 to Mario Delgado-116 but I told him the app was not working I'll take care of Monday. This needs to be investigated. I reported everything I could and have been checking my things religiously but they have my identity so who knows what they will do with it.

I applied for a job on indeed.com for a remote position. I received an email asking me to download the signal app for an immediate interview with a fake person named Mrs. Altura Itunu

How do you know that the person in question is a fake name? And did you install the Signal Messenger app to officially talk with the person? Apparently, you didn't so unless your GOD there is no way you could distinguish if the name is of a fake person.
