Hiring managers of a global corporation will at least know proper Grammer. Wanted to interview me by texting thru Teams. Asked strang questions like the other gentleman mentioned about credit card debt and post paid phone service. I'm glad I did my research before any of my personal information was given.

Never met the interviewer; I only answered a questionnaire on their website and answered prompt questions for job-related activities and problems for a remote data entry clerk position. First, they have me deposit a check of $4500 for "work equipment" then they want me to Zelle the vendor for the work equipment or purchase multiple Visa gift cards from either Walmart, CVS, or Target for $500 each. I have not done this. Using ring central to communicate with the hiring manager "Kelly Lonesberry"

They sent photograph images needed and the information needed to post for ad. After creating the ad for apartment for rent i immediately was banned from viewing, purchasing, or selling again on Facebook marketplace.

Discovered through a YouTube video, Remotasks specializes in AI testing and programming. On July 27, I registered and created an account. Their website assures nearly $200 for completing the onboarding process, which I accomplished on the same day, receiving a payment of $6. They promised tasks and daily earnings post-onboarding. However, no tasks were assigned even after a month of waiting. I contacted their support multiple times, inquiring about both the absence of tasks and the payment. While they responded once, they claimed my region lacked access to their website. This contradicts their statement of support for the United States. Despite successfully signing up, completing onboarding, and receiving $6, it appears likely that I fell victim to a scam. I had given them all my information such as bank account and address.

I posted my resume on Indeed. I sent my driver's license and filled out an application to work for Avanade. The job title is Data Entry. Last week I had a 2 hour interview with Pam Greenstein through the Microsoft Team app to see if I was qualified for the job. I received an acceptance letter and a check for $1487 dollars, but it is written against a different company. They are telling me to deposit the check so I can buy a laptop and a printer. They said I would have a probationary period of 30 days before they decide if they will keep me.

Something felt off. When looking for work someone contacted me with multiple job openings. When I told them I was more experienced a management role magically appeared. Was sent a link to interview on the spot. Also not a thing. Said I could speak the next day, was told 8am. They clearly don’t want you thinking too much. I asked a job script and link to page of who I’d be speaking with. They went dark.

My front and back of license photo was taken as well as screenshots of my card balances and my address. She hacked a woman named ***** ******* on Facebook from pembroke ma. Asking for people to help out with a company Nielson. At home at first part or full time data entry position. The Katie person sent me to Microsoft teams to go through the process of hiring. I was told I was hired and then started asking how I would like to be paid and what days I wanted off. Then said they would send me all the equipment to start training but then asked me about any credit cards I had that had a balance to be paid and I questioned why and this Elizabeth meador said the company would pay my cards off so I could put the equipment on them then the company would be in charge of paying the cards for now on. I needed to send screenshots of my card balances and a copy of my license front and back but then I got concerned and said I was not going to work for them and then got sent some weird texts about being ruined and to calm down and do what she was asking me to do as well as open an account with Verizon. She sent me photos of herself

I’m contacting ScamPulse.com to inform you all of two emails I received this morning from scammers after I’d applied for remote positions at two companies recently. The emails were from scammers pretending to extend interview offers to me. The first was from someone pretending to be a David Williams from Professional Tax Consultants, Inc. and the second was from someone pretending to be a Christopher Lee Devault from Digiprint Ink Ltd. I’ll first explain how I knew these were phony HR emails. I knew this because of the grammatical errors within them, it came off like a template with only a few pieces of information here and there being different in these two separate emails, and the email addresses containing a bunch of numbers and symbols and appearing nothing like real, legitimate email addresses. I’ll attach screenshots of the emails so that you all can see what I mean by that. Now let me go into why, besides the general concerns and frustrations due to this, its even more so concerning and frustrating for me. I applied to these two companies within the Indeed system, not externally on either one of these companies own websites. I also have always had my resume on my profile set to private so that it is not searchable and the only folks who can view it are ones from the companies I’ve actually sent applications to. So with that being said, I have no clue how in the world these scammers got ahold of my name, email address, the names of a couple of the companies I’ve applied to recently, and the specific positions I’ve applied for in order to send these phony emails pretending to be from the HR departments of these companies. Now I’m reporting this so that, at the very least, other people know to be on the lookout and know what’s up if they receive emails from scammers pretending these HR employees from these companies.

I’m using some of the original post I’m piggybacking off of but the exact same thing happened to me. The job opportunity was for a Data Entry Clerk (Work From Home) position for Starkey Lab Inc. that I saw on a local Facebook page. I responded to the ad through Facebook. I started contact to inquire about the job on August 14 and that I was interested in the position. I contacted Janet Raymond who made the original post. She told me to download Microsoft teams for the interview. She gave me Sally Doyle’s name and her email. I was to reach out to her through Microsoft Teams. I then proceeded to have a chat interview through Teams, and was told I was offered the position. I had to submit pictures of the front and back of my driver license as well as a picture of me holding the license. I also had to complete an incredibly basic application. She informed me that I would be sent an apple laptop and that they would provide the money for the software to my account for the software needed to work for them. The funds were supposed to be used to pay for a bunch of software that was needed for the position minus $200 that I was to keep myself for a sign on bonus. She said she would refer me to the vendor that I would purchase the software from. She then said she was going to connect the accountant to the chat to get my information. I told her he would have to call me and I didn’t feel comfortable continuing the conversation through messages. From this point I searched online and found the original post on ScamPulse.com about someone else being scammed. So i contacted Starkey Labs and was able to leave a message for someone in the HR department. I looked for available jobs on their website while i was waiting to hear back and found there were no positions like this available with them. He contacted me back (his name was *****) and informed me that they were aware of the scam and they have contacted platforms like Microsoft Teams about the scam in an effort to stop them since they are fraudulently using their company’s name in an attempt to scam people.
