I was first contacted through email and phone call for an interview. I completed the phone Interview and then they sent me videos to watch and links to download and study . They sent me a link to set up and account to where I would be receiving packages taking pictures to make sure it was the correct item and then resending them back out with the shipping label they sent. I did this only for a couple of days before It got a little sketchy so I researched it online. Turns out I'm not the only person that this has happened to recently.

Contacted offering 2500 a month to receive parcels, collect and re-ship parcels to customers. Then offered promotion to open up our own credit card to purchase customers items and then ship on to buyers. At this point refused to continue working down further research and identified a potential scam. No answer from human resources, contacting police.

Received a link stating make money part-time while doing surveys as a secret shopper. The alarming part was the large amount of money that was being sent off $1882.00. I then received two emails stating the amount being sent what I was to do. They wanted me to purchase gift cards then send them the numbers of the gift cards for proof. The whole thing just doesn’t sound good at all. When I originally signed up I thought it was legit because I’ve don’t surveys before and received gifts and money. But what they are asking is extreme.

They said that they hired me at 37.00 an hour after a very short interview for their company based in a different country. They said that they would send me a check to my house for “supplies” and after questioning they said very basic office supplies that I already had and software. They didn’t tell me what software. After I cashed the check I was supposed to meet them in person to sign W-4s and they wouldn’t tell me where. After that I reverse image searched her profile picture and it was a completely different name, person, and company.

I had recently applied to work from home jobs on indeed and was emailed from Pharmaron stating they were interested in me completing an interview. The interview was conducted via zoom CHAT I was never asked to join a zoom call or anything. They asked me a bunch of questions that seemed fairly legitimate and then told me I would be receiving a “start up check” to purchase home office equipment. I kinda started to get red flags from that and the fact I never had to do any video interview.

The scammer under the name Deborah Henderson offered me a job as a data analyst after I went through an expensive interview process through Skype. They said they would email me a check to buy equipment needed from their third party. My bank flagged the check for $1950 after I attempted to deposit and warned me about the fraud. I shared my name and ID.

I was offered a position as a picking and packing specialist. I was to receive packages, remove labels, and ensure packages were not damaged. Repackage and wait on pre-paid labels to send out via UPS or FedEx. I was told I would receive payment after 30 days. Base pay was $2400 and Bonus was $40 per package sent out the same day. I was owed $4680 and was never paid. I still have several packages in my home now. Without labels so I don't know what to do with them.

Filled out application online for working remote. Entered my information, maybe 2 days I received an email from Laura Adams, giving me information of starting wage would be $30 with an additional $15 training pay but the catch was I needed to download an app called Telegram from Google. I would add HR Manager ID https://t.me/ryanoneil23 my interview code Dol2960. Once they asked about wanting permission to access my personal files and friend contacts I immediately uninstalled and voiced how I thought this was not normal and would be reporting to ScamPulse.com I did not receive any more communications.

I had applied for a copy editor position for an education learning company and went through a chat interview. My contact said that I would need to wire money ($6,165) to pay for my work equipment. Upon further inspection, the check was a fake.

First approached by a "recruiter" by the name of Brannon Wilshere with an email address of [email protected], informing me of a position at Femtec Health Inc. If I was interested in the position to email the Hiring Manager, "Mr. Jeffrey Johnson" at [email protected]. Contacted the person and was set up for a interview but through email only. I didn't provide my social, but public accessible information which anyone would be able to find if they sought through the internet about me. During this time of the email interview, I looked up the company through indeed, linked it, facebook and each account is set up with the names of CEO and staff. As I passed the interview process, an offer was given and a W4 was sent for completion. However, before I would give a SSN, I did a little more digging. I noticed that I could not find a phone number for the employer. They said they recently acquired Ava Women company, but even that site did not have a phone number. I searched and searched but to no avail. I looked up the supposed HQ of FemTec Health Inc, and noticed that the address is to a residential location and not a buisness complex or any of that sort. I tried calling the "hiring manager" who called me when I wanted to negotiate the rate, but no responses. (side note, I emailed the hiring manager about the issue I was having looking for the companies phone number and an appropriate address, but no responses). I'm pretty sure I alerted them, but my wife recommended for me to check the BBB.org. I forgot all about do so, so that what brings me here. When it is listed through the BBB, it states an "F" but unable to review the comments/reviews. I also utilized my OSINT tools to check IP addresses, DNS, etc. Yesterday, everything was clean. Today, there is starting to show an alert. I'm assuming this is a fairly new scam for this group.

Through the interview process and earlier today, they were quick with responses through email. But all of a sudden, silence to my inquiry questions.

I applied for over 50 jobs in a couple weeks and received an email from [email protected] stating my resume was received and I will be receiving a text from “Mark” to proceed. I was then advised to Download Microsoft teams to communicate with my hiring manager. I went through all steps of a typical interview. I was provided with all typical information provided during a typical interview. Job overview, company background, ect.. i was offered the job and advised to fill out the i9 form and sign other paperwork. I was then advised that the company will mail a check to purchase equipment then later was told there was an issue with the accounting department and the check for equipment will be emailed instead . When asked if the check could be direct deposit they then referenced back to the accounting department having issues. The check was emailed and they were adamant about me depositing the check through the mobile app which of course raised red flags.

I received an email about a job opportunity, which seemed too good to be true. I looked into the company and it looks like a legitimate company. I thought the email address the email was sent from seemed odd.... [email protected]. I decided to google the recruiter, Brannon Wilshere and found another compliant on the ScamPulse.com about him, but for a different company. I don't think he really works for any company and is a scammer. Here is the email I received:

I was contacted through email about a job that I applied to. First mistake was that I didn’t actually find or remember this application they referred to. They boasted amazing pay and benefits and said that I would have to speak to another person through a third party app. This was my second mistake. Eventually they got me to deposit a check into my account and then send money to other people under the guise of establishing trust and buying needed materials for my “home office.” They didn’t ask me to transfer more than I received in my time of contacting them.
