I had the same conversation with "EssilorLuxottica". I'm not able to copy and paste the whole convo but I have screenshots. Offered me $48.89 an hour for a CSR position. I wish but total crap. Supposed to check in Monday to find out about my "check".
Did anyone actually receive a check?

I am so glad I found this forum. Thank you for whoever originated this! You saved me from my ignorance and gullible personality. Seriously scammers are ridiculous these days! To go through such length. Life is hard I get it but come on!

You will be receiving the check for the purchase of your working materials. Once you receive the check you are needed to have the check deposited into your bank account and once the funds are available in your account, you are to deduct the $150.00 as your sign on bonus and the rest of the funds in your account will be for the purchase of your working software. I will be here to refer you to the vendor whom you will be making the purchase from. Do you understand this part?

The same thing happened to me yesterday word from word .

I had a very similar interview on Wire today. One thing different was the interviewer. I m told to expect a check which I’m to keep $150 signing bonus and I’m to purchase the necessary software with the remains funds. So far that’s all legitimate I’m to expect a company laptop next week. My trainer will contact me Monday at 8 am. So far I can’t figure what could be the scam. I guess once the check comes and they start asking for me to send them money that would prove fraudulent. Another thing worth mentioning my interview was close to 3 hours.I can’t see anyone spending tat amount of time if it wasn’t legit. I will keep an extra eye on future activity and report back any wrong being done. My daughter is a corporate attorney and has access to better markers than myself. She too will be diligent on any wrong doing. Especially to me.

I just received this email and found it HIGHLY suspicious because there were no qualifying pics or verbiage (see below) I'm very irritated with "Career Builder" for their part in this also - they really could take the time to vet their contacts :

I received the same one, and after checking the REAL website and making contact with them, this is a scam that's been going around for a while. Call me mean, but I sent a copy of the email to their fraud department.

On Wednesday, October 21 I received an email message from a company who indicated they’d received an application I submitted with ZipRecruiter for a job as an administrative assistant. In the body of the email, I was directed to download “Wire” and contact a woman named Mrs. Arianna P. Thomas as soon as I was able. So I did. Mrs. Thomas replied quickly and told me about the job through a chat session that she informed me would take an hour to complete an interview. She described the company, Acticor Biotech. She gave its location in Paris, which matched the description I googled while waiting for her to ask more questions about my work history and myself. The job offered $48.92 an hour, which is almost twice as much as I made in my last position, but I assumed it was because they were a French company. She asked how often I expect to be paid, whether by check or direct deposit, and wanted to know the name of my bank to see if it was one of the banks the company was familiar with. I only gave her the name of the bank because I prefer to be paid by direct deposit. After a lengthy question and answer volley, she asked me to remain on line for 15 minutes while she presented HR with a summary of our online interview. A short while later she returned to the chat and told me that the company was pleased with my answers and would like to hire me. I was told not to be late, and check in tomorrow at 8:00am, EST. At that point I would be sent paperwork to start the hiring process and begin training. I was excited, but also a bit hesitant; I’d never been hired that fast and without a face to face interview. As soon as the chat ended I looked at the results of my earlier search and saw “Scam” associated with it. My experience was nearly identical to the first report I read.
In addition to telling me about the job, she told me the company would provide me with a MacBookPro, and would be sending me a check for the amount of the laptop and the associated software I would need in the position. It also would include an extra $150 for hiring bonus, but I had to make sure to contact Mrs. Thomas just as soon as I received the check. She requested my phone number, address and email address (though I’d been contacted through my email address to begin with). I asked her for her contact information, but I didn’t receive it.
I copied the entire chat and have saved it as a Word document.

- Burlington, KY, USA

I received notice from the phone number via text telling me my resume was found on career builder and they offered me a job making $35 an hour. I was given the email to contact a Monica L Hamilton via Skype and conducting an interview texting over Skype. After some questions I was informed I have the job and they will send me a check in the mail to use and buy software I need for the job and I’m to take $100 as my sign on bonus.
