I applied for a job with Ump Attire on the Career Builder website and also attached my resume. I was contacted by email and offered a job by Wendi Norbut. The emails attachments were "Job description", a four page "Job Application", and "Job Interview Questions" which was 35 questions. I went to the official Ump Attire website and on their "Contact Us" page. I asked, if the job offer was legitimate and gave more of the information given to me. Ump Attire contacted me immediately by email, stating that there is no Wendi Norbut at their company and the job offer was not legitimate.

I received an offer to be a transcriptionist. The pay was $40/hour and the hiring process was immediate. I went through a lengthy Skype interview process with "Scott Musser" and the next day they sent me an employment letter, W-4 and a confidentiality agreement. I became very suspicious and asked to speak with someone directly. They told me to "stand by" and never connected me with a live person. It's been a frustrating job search process and there are more scammers out there than legitimate employers.

Good day, my name is Jessica from Apex Group .Limited I am contacting you in regards to your resume which has been approved for the Data Entry Position. You are required to contact

the HR on Signal. Download the app from your Google play/App Store (https://signal.org/install/) Add the HR manager using his Phone Number ( Darrell Myers)  (724) 264-5542) and send a message to her for the interview process. Your interview code is XBGD-77-202-7

This is the initial text that I received yesterday. And they are trying to offer me a job and said that they are going to send a check in my name to purchase equipment for the job. And I had to make sure I use the vendor that they suggested. I needed to purchase a L-shaped Desk, a Black Mesh office chair, a shredder, Apple MACBOOK 12 and a couple other things. They said that once the check was sent off they will provide a tracking number. Then i received another text from another company asking me to download the same app but a different number. I have not commented to anything nor have I signed anything. I politely declined their offer and they are still saying but we sent you a check that’s suppose to come to you tomorrow for training. And they sent a email that I’m suppose to sign and send back. I have not done that. Something didn’t set right with me.

This company had one of their service agents call me and request my social security number to reinstate my account. This agent then stole my identity/ social security number and also stole $760 from my bank account for hotel purchases.

Received a text message in regards to a data entry level position for a job and an interview code. Requesting me to download the microsoft teams app and search the email provided. It sounded suspicious so I decided to search to see if Fred McelHone was on any social media or job links. I could not find him so I searched here and found a similar situation.

I was sent a check for 2950.00 to do a survey at Walmart purchasing money orders for 2400.00 and then use 50 to mail to three different locations and to keep the extra 500.00 . I did not deposit the check but if I had, I have read they would probably have bounced the check and I would have been left owing my bank the full amount plus them probably having my personal checking information

I was emailed a job offer from a company I’ve never heard of, so I emailed them back and said I was interested in the position. I had to email them because no one answered when I called the number provided. I spoke with a man who offered me the position. He gave me details about the company, and a description of what I would be doing. He went out with the salary. He never did mention anything about Benefits and he said that he would send me over some documents to review and one of the documents would need personal information such as my ID and he also wanted me to send a picture of myself holding my ID and he needed my social, but he only asked for me to cover the last four digits. I wasn’t comfortable with the interview. It was just a bit too easy and the questions that he was asking didn’t sound legitimate. I told him that I will review the documents and let him know. Once I got off the phone with him, I went to better business bureau on line and that’s when I found that it was a scam.

They offered me a job interview and claimed it was from my resume on Indeed. I never engaged with them or emailed back or clicked on anything. I’m paranoid about scammers, which is great for me because this is a scam. But I looked at my Indeed account and never applied for Quanta Technology. Then I reached out to the actual company Quanta Technology and emailed them asking if a “Ryan Jason” or “Mr. Michael Anthony” worked for their company because I received an email offering me a job interview but I wanted to go to the source first and ask if it’s legit or not. The company itself emailed me back immediately and told me to not engage and that it was a scam. So all in all, I was right to be suspicious and my paranoia is indeed helpful. Hopefully this helps someone.

On Tuesday, January 17, 2023 at 4:30pm, I received a text message from a person named Anthony Williams claiming that he worked for Advent Healthcare. In the text, he said that my resume for their Business Data Analyst position was reviewed and the next step would be an online interview with their hiring manager, Maurice Fernandes. In another text, he gave basic information about the pay, training compensation, and the type of online work I would be doing. He claimed the work would be all online, I would be getting paid weekly or bi-weekly, and my pay would be $35.60/hour for regular work days, and $20/hour for my 2-week training. Williams inquired if I had the Zoom app because that was the platform I would need to do the online job briefing and interview. He asked for the email address linked to my Zoom account so he could email me the Zoom link needed for the interview. I sent him a text with my email and that was the end of our conversation for that day.

The next day on Wednesday, January 18, 2023, at 7:01am, I received a text from Williams saying that I needed to set up a Zoom account using the email address I sent and to add Maurice Fernandes as a contact once I log in. Shortly after a Zoom invitation was sent to my email asking to connect with Advent Healthcare. Once I was able to log in and connect with Advent Healthcare, I immediately received a Zoom message from Advent Healthcare. The message was confirming that the person was Maurice Fernandes and that they are the hiring manager based out in Miami, Florida. The remainder of this conversation played out through the Zoom chat feature. Fernandes asked for my name, age, and current location then continued to ask employer questions like my eligibility to work in the states, my citizenship, and my wpm average. After the introductory questions, Fernandes begin explaining the job details, requirements, and compensation more in detail. I noticed that the pay had changed according to the amount Williams gave me through text. Fernandes stated that the pay would be $75.60/hour and $40/hour for training. After explaining the information about the company, my pay/benefits, and my duties he continued on with interview questions through the chat features on Zoom. After the interview questions, Fernandes said that he had to send my responses to the “Superior Department” for evaluation. He said that the process should take 15-20 minutes and that I should come back online during that time. About 30 minutes later Fernandes came back online and stated that I was automatically hired for the position and that training would start as soon as HR emails me my paperwork and documentation. Fernandes then asked for my full name, mailing address, city, state, zip code, phone number, and email address to send to his secretary to enlist me on their company registrar. After sending the information, Fernandes said that a $200 payment needed to be issued from me for the software. Fernandes claimed the software was required to fulfill my job duties and that my money would be reimbursed through a signing bonus. When I questioned about this information being sent to my email in more detail, I received a final text from Fernandes saying that their company would provide me with all the information I needed to know. Shortly after, I was no longer able to message Fernandes through the Zoom chat and the cell phone number Williams used to text me, had become disconnected.

During this entire situation, I never seen or heard Anthony Williams or Maurice Fernandes. All interactions were through a text feature (SMS and Zoom chat). Additional information that was given to me during the hiring process was Maurice Fernandes’ alleged email which is [email protected].

The scammer contacted me via phone and offered me a job interview, for data entry clerk. He told me that he had found me on Career Builders. Said that he felt I had the qualifications for the job. He had me download WhatsApp and we started the interview. It was fast paced and I read everything through acknowleged that I read it and we finished the Interview. He told me that he needed to run my responses by the Board of Directors. and that it will take 30 mins. He then told me that it will take until the next day (saturday).

He then told me that I got the job and that I needed to fill out some paperwork. I filled it out It wasn't to damning. He then sent me a list of the equipment and software that would be supplied to me by the comapny. Wanted my drivers license and SSN. He then wanted a selfie of me to determine that it was me. SO for it all still seemed legit. Then he started to tell m that a check would arrive for me and that I was to deposit it into my bank. I was to take 200$ as a sign on bonus and use the rest to by equipment and software for the job. This was my first read flag. This was on Saturday. Sunday morning I get a whatsapp message from him and sends me a picture of himself that looks posed and in a suit. He wanted me to know what he looked like. This was red flag number 2. since this was more like fishing and feeling a tug. He was tugging on the bait. He then asks what I am weraing. This was the final red flag. I reverse serched the image of his picture and found that I was a guy on instagram that wasnt the person he claimed to be a Mr. Micheal GIlbert. He did get my SSN from me which I know better and should have listened to my radar of this isn't right.

The scammers, Mammoth Marketing Group, have been calling a family member about a supposed job for which they wanted her to bid on to provide certain materials and labor. My family member is not a contractor, but works for one. The scammers call at least once a day, using different phone numbers. My family member has not answered the calls, and I block them as they come in. We do not know anything about the scammers other than what is posted on their website and the fact that I have contacted you, the BBB, to confirm that they are scammers.

I was offfered job with Real Health MD (King of Prussia, PA) via LinkedIn and was later emailed once application was received. I was told that I passed the initial assessment and that they would mail me a check to purchase equipment needed for the job. I received a check for $4300 ($4000 for equipment and $300 for a bonus) and was told to deposit the check and wait for further instructions on how to get the equipment from the vendor. The reason the check was mailed was so that I could receive the equipment needed faster than if they were to purchase and send the equipment to me.
