Very suspicious to me. I researched Afentra PLC they are located in the United Kingdom. They are a publicly traded company in the oil and energy sector. Their website has no careers opening. Paul McDade is the CEO. I also know a corporation would never use @outlook.com for their email.
When I googled the phone number, it told me it came from West Palm Beach, FL, and that is when I saw others have had the same number contact them. I deleted the number and did not text or download Teams as I already have Teams and did not email the address.

Tuesday, Feb. 21, I got a job offer by a Brian Miller in HR, although it didn't come from his own company email address, oddly enough. We spoke on the phone, but we kept having a bad connection, the call dropped several times, and he was using Google Voice. He had a strong unidentifiable accent and said he was in Miami. I didn't learn much about the company or about Brian's own personal experience at the company, and there's very little on LinkedIn.
When I looked up the company address on the letterhead in the attached PDFs, it's the address of Theme Dresser, a retail clothing shop that carries the Capittana brand, but I spoke with the store manager who confirmed that there's no Capittana office there.

I'm concerned that it could be a scam but am also wondering if it could just be a small company that doesn't have its act together yet, although it does seem like several red flags.
