I was contacted via LinkedIn by Susan Jett from Emdeon who offered me a virtual administrative assistant position. I asked for particulars about the post, and she returned my message with some very lucrative terms. She asked for my resume, and I didn't think anything of it since that's how a lot of honest recruiters work on the site. After I sent that document to her [and it doesn't contain any real personal information about me], I received this email:
I am rest assured that you are eligible to take up the position. Your first assignment is a proficiency assignment which will be used to assess your proficiency. A meeting will be setup with you after the first task to give you feedback on your performance and sign necessary paperwork.This virtual assistant position requires a printer and licensed application software. A pay check of $2950 will be sent to you which will cover:
1. Your first week pay of $400
2. The money for the printer.
3. The money for licensed application software.
The printer, papers and licensed application software will be sent to your address by our independent seller after payment is made by you. This is the reason for this check. The printer and licensed application software are essential to perform the virtual assistance task successfully.
Kindly send your full name as it should be on the check, valid mobile number and address of where the check should be sent to.
Sincerely,
Susan Jett
Sr. Talent Acquisition Recruiter for Mid-Atlantic/Southeast Region
This message felt all wrong to me, so I did my research and found these very same "employment terms" on a number of online sites.
