I received multiple emails stating that the company wanted to discuss my qualifications, I had multiple phone calls with the recruiter and the shipping department manager, Leo and Paul and Elmer, both supervisors for the shipping department. I was instructed to watch some short videos, advised that I will be on probation for 30 days before getting a paycheck. I received packages at my home and picked up packages from various UPS access point locations, after packages were received, I took and uploaded photos, downloaded new shipping labels and sent out packages either via USPS, UPS or FedEx. The company offered starting base salary of $2250, with the ability to earn $100 for VIP pick up packages and $40 for packages processed on time. The company, documents and employee dashboard all appear to be authentic.

Applied via LinkedIn and was sent acceptance for employment. Contacted through phone, email and text and submitted W4 & direct deposit information for payment.

Job was receiving and shipping packages, logging onto dashboard 3 times daily for $75 per day and $45-$100 per package.

Was told it would be 1 month before payment and on pay day my login stopped working.

Unable to reach anyone via phone, text or email and now my personal information has been compromised.

Seemed legit, very spooky how these companies can scam job seekers so easily.

I was emailed about a work-from-home job listing on LinkedIn. The company is listed as Freight Shipping LLC. The job was for a package inspector where they sent packages to your home and then you would repackage and send them back out through either UPS, FedEx, or post office. They explained they worked with customers overseas whose payment methods certain stores didn’t take or didn’t ship to overseas addresses. Everything seemed legit, they had a website, called me for a phone interview, emailed me training videos on how to operate their dashboard, emailed me from payroll to provide my bank information for direct deposit and to fill out a W-4 form as they explained I would receive a W2 at the end of the year. They had me upload a copy of my driver's license, front and back and a picture of myself holding my driver's license. I signed an employee contract as well. I received a few packages but soon realized that the addresses on the shipping labels I was downloading were tweaked and were all to addresses here in the states. I began doing more research and quickly realized that it was part of a reshipping scam. They have continued to contact me daily via email, phone, text, leaving voicemails asking to finish the packages that are on my dashboard and asking for information on the last package I was suppose to receive.

I shipped out quite a few packages and my dashboard reflected all that I was earning including my $2250 salary plus $75 per day when I sign in. When it came time to pay me, all of a sudden my account no longer worked and I could not access my dashboard. None of the phone numbers worked to call them. There has been no response to emails either.

I was offered a shipping job and I accepted it thinking it was legit. After the first couple of packages I received I notice something off so I research the company and it was no such company. I told them to stop sending me packages and go away, they have been harassing me every since
