The job itself is not described in full by anyone. The promotional process is outrageously quick paced and feels more like a pyramid scheme. To clarify they are not asking for personal investment. The company has only existed for one year, yet totes many connections they claim to have. The link to their website on indeed also redirects to a bitcoin site.

Started as a text message to earn money $500.00 a week advertising their product on the door of your car. Then I heard nothing else, till a flat rate envelope arrived with a check enclosed for $3,150.55 from a company I never heard of. Then I received another text to my phone with instructions to deposit check taking $ 500.00 out plus $100.00 for gas money and then send the balanced WHEN requested to the car specialist that would design the door plaque/sign for my door.

I was told I was hired as a package inspector and I did work for them for a few weeks, but trying to get someone on the phone or to respond to an email was like pulling teeth. They kept asking me to fill out a W-4 form, but because of the experience I was already having with them I did not. I voiced my concerns about the company being legit and the way business was being handled and they said oh well you can work for a while first to make sure you’re comfortable before providing the W-4. They also provided me with a employee identification number to verify through the IRS site and what looked like some legit legal papers to prove legitimacy. Thankfully I didn’t give up my social security number or bank account info. Sadly they do have my number, address, id, and email. The picture is where I had to login everyday to report package info and where they posted packages to be inspected and shipped. As the payday started approaching I was no longer able to log on and no one will answer calls, text, emails, etc. I also want to add that I was sent to pick up packages from Fed Ex by the company, but the package fid not have my name on it so Fed Ex would not release it to me. I reported this to the company and they sent me back with authorization letters that included the id of the person who’s name is on the package, a note stating I have permission to pickup, and they were also notarized. Fed Ex still did not accept this and would not release the packages. This was another red flag for me. I believe they knew I was on to them because I was very upfront about my concerns with them.

facebook post listed on my account "seeking dependable housekeeper". When contacted thru facebook, people were told they would be helping list real estate. Photos of a listing at the address 1528 7th Ave, Watervliet, NY 12189 were shared with those who contacted the scammer. They then were told to go to facebook marketplace, under "home for rent," and fill in the house listing.

The scammer then shared contact email: [email protected], and phone number (213) 373-3078.

The scammer sent me an email on 10/8/22 about a remote job opportunity for Data Entry Assistant and said they received my application from LinkedIn and they wanted to schedule an interview for Monday 10/10/22. I accepted the invite and chose 12pm for the interview. They confirmed with instructions for the interiew and a welcome letter on what looked like company letterhead which included more info about the job, benefits, compensation and equipment listed for the job. The instructions were to download an app called Ring Central in order to do the interview. I assumed it would be on video and discovered it was done on the messaging/chat side. They immediately explained the interiew through long messages, gave more info about the job and asked 9 interview questions that had to be answered in a reply. I sent my answers and they said they would contact me the next morning which they did email an offer letter to me and onboarding instructions. I accepted but asked how does the process with getting the equipment work because what I read sounded suspect. They replied stating the company would mail the equipment to me. I followed the instructions for the "Home Office Registration" which included giving them my home address and cell phone number. Next, they instructed me to do an assessment which turned out to be to write an essay 400-800 words in response to an interview question: What administrative mistakes have you made in the past and what did you learn from it? Once they received that they said I would be compensated $100.00 for my time and I will receive a start up check in order to purchase the equipment. I received an email today with a long list of instructions and a pdf attached of a check front and back for $4,950.00. The instructions said to print, sign and add Direct Deposit only and deposit as an mobile deposit to my bank then wait for further instructions. I did not respond to that email. I immediately called my bank to tell them what was going on and they confirmed it was a scam. I deleted the Ring Central app and reported the last email I received with the check attached as Spam on my gmail account. I called the company and actually spoke to the woman from the emails and she said they are aware of the scam and that they have been getting a lot of calls for the past week about it. They added they do not have a job opening for a Data Entry Assistant. I reported to the scam dept of my bank with the check attached. I will report to LinkedIn and the other job sites I am on.

I been looking for a work from home job and was contacted about wrapping my car with a company logo and they would pay me $600 a week, I decided to go for it and they sent me a check before they wrapped my car. So once I received the check I notice it didnt sound right because no one came to wrap my car. They asked me to deposit the money and send some back to them but I think its a scam

He said he was a HRM and was hiring for Lowell Herb CO. When I looked him up all I could find was he was a CSR for that company. He sent me through an interview process which he proceeded to ask me personal questions and personal info. Asked several times the name of my bank specifically my local bank. Wouldn't accept my prepaid card for direct deposit and then said I was approved for hire. Never gave me a correct position title, nor asked for legitimate work related information. This was a scam to get my bank information.

Applied for job on job site, was told that I would be hired for work from home and would need equipment. Was sent checks through email to deposit and then asked to send that money to "approved vendor" through Zelle and then by buying gift cards and then sending them over email.

EmployI was asked if I wanted to work from home for wonderment well-being for a nice offer of 38$ an hour with paid training. Was asked all the same questions as the other scammers about being able to self manage and I would be sent a check to buy my equipment. It all looked very legitimate but it’s alll the same questions.

Seems like they are using well being and medical companies that are based in other countries

Long story short is i was sent a list of interview questions and answered them. Within a couple of hours i received an email (that i've pasted below) stating i got the job and i was to receive a check in the mail to purchase equipments for my work from home office. I was skeptical at first since they didn't even run my BG or even ask for references. First red flag was the check they sent Fedex didn't delivered it because they suspected a scam. I contacted them and let them know that something went wrong with the delivery and they wanted to send the money via mobile deposit. I quickly google searched the scam and found other people with previous experiences as well. I also called the actual company and confirmed that they were hacked. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM..

They contacted me via email saying they saw my resume and were impressed. They mentioned they were creating 2 new positions they would like me to apply for, both were work from home jobs as my resume states that’s what I’m looking for at this time. They requested I create a zoom and add this email [email protected] . They stated the entire interview process would be done via IM on zoom. I found it strang because the email this came from was [email protected] . I searched Indeed with no sign of them then I searched ScamPulse.com with no sign of them. They do however have a fake website saying they are global with no phone number to contact or email posted in website. Only multiple social media platforms. I’ve copied the email and added it to my notes so it was all small enough to fit in on page that you could read.

This company reached out to me on Indeed. Emailed me with a job offer. Seem sketchy so I asked if it was a legit job offer and they then called me finding my number on resume. Calls after calls talking to several different people from supposed different department they collected my information and told me I was hired. Was suppose to send a link for a portal for packages to pick up or being delivered and it never happened. Called back left emails after emails. Luckily they didn't get any money from me so far because I never gave bank account information but as far as all personal information they have of mine. I will continue to report this company and continue to keep watching my background and credit score making sure they are not using my information.

Was on Facebook and saw a posting about a work from home job. I looked on the page of the person who posted it to see if they were real and of course they were 'live" at the time so I figured it was legit. I was sent the link and told to download Telegram which I did. We text all day with the hiring manager and they asked me for info any job like name, address, social and I gave it to them. I was then told to text again in the morning at 8am. Once 8am came I text the hiring manager and was told to download another app called "strike" which I would get paid and to input my direct deposit. Once I submitted my bank info the hiring manager I was texting became inactive and photo change to a ghost. My friend tried texting and it wouldnt work for her either. That's when I realize i have been scammed.
