- Killeen, TX, USA

I was offered a work from job from Outsy LLC located in Florida but they are a national company for customer service representatives. I did a zoom interview with someone but they didn’t have their camera on. I was also communicating with someone on telegram about the information about the job. I filled out paperwork for them as well via email. All the paperwork looks very professional and real that’s why I believed it was a real job. After I officially received the job, they started describing to me in “detail”, they used, about helping clients with cryptocurrency. Then asked if I ever used it myself. Told me I had to make an account to move forward and then would link my account to the corporate account. The account was somewhere in Oregon and I got suspicious so I unlinked the account because I did not want to be accused of fraud especially since the Robinhood account was MY name and not the company name. During the time they asked me to create my account they kept asking for screenshots of each time I finished filling something out via telegram.

Scheduled interview for WHF position via Skype chat, never called or did video interview, only over chat. Pay seems too good to be true at $30/hour. Offered job on the spot and was told to purchased multiple software programs and report the next morning to start. Never received any paperwork documentation.

The person called and asked me to receive packages and mail them off to a different address

I was messaged about a job for a customer service/sales position. They said they were “Bottazzi Blondeel LLC”, a European jewelry store expanding to the US. They sent me a legit looking job contract, job description, and even had a small application and interview process. Used email addresses ending in **********************. Gave me phone numbers and set me up with a sales manager to train me. Spoke to the “hr manager” and my “sales manager” meant to train me. Both just ignored questions when I asked them and continued talking about the job. I was to do a paid probationary period of one month before being permanently hired. On my first day of probation I was asked bank information as they required i make purchases for the company with money they sent.

The position I accepted was for InStyle as a Proofreading assistant. I found this on Upwork, but at this time, I was wondering who the client was or the name of the position. Upwork hides all client information until the client has picked your proposal and moves into the interview stage. All my contact with the "client" has been through a skype chat because the "client" claimed our time zone was different. I didn't think of this then since I knew Meredith had a location in New York City, and the team could be based there.

I received an offer letter via email, eagerly accepted it, and signed it. After I signed the offer letter, I sent it through the skype chat to my "supervisor," who called themselves Michael Brent or Brent Michael; that's what it looks like on my end.

They ask if I have the items needed to start a 3-day orientation, and I say no, then they send a few fairly scripted messages and a check to cover the costs of the items. I am supposed to use my mobile banking app to deposit into my account.

Once the funds arrive in my account, they want me to pay the local vendor responsible for shipping out the materials - a computer and a laptop with the company's enterprise software loaded in on it since they don't have an online version yet.

They informed me payment could be made through Zelle; we tried that, and it didn't go through. We keep trying other apps - CashApp and PayPal. Then they ask for Apple gift cards in increments of $500. I immediately decline, and my phone rings; it's my bank saying they blocked a fraudulent card on my account. Then I pull the plug and tell the supervisor we will not continue until I can verify the check. What makes me incredibly suspicious is the payment methods and how pushy the supervisor was for me to complete the transaction.

The scammers offered me a position as a Stocker and Packer to receive packages check them and make sure they're not damaged before the customer receives any items.

+2

Sent me a bunch of expensive items to reship and did not pay after i supposedly worked for a month

+3

They posted a job as an outbound call center position with day one benefits.

I and the other 10+ trainees didnt find out that the position was Inbound only until partway through training and that day one benefits meant day one After training.

After further investigating they have been doing this bait and switch scam tactic since at Least 2019 posting job ads specifically stating a job role but then surprising candidates that it is another after they are hired.

Offering the job of purchase manager. Initially, asks for some information regarding my background.

Received text message "Good morning, I believe this is (name)?" -- I am Harry Johnson an interview supervisor at Quartet Healthare, I can (sic) across your resume on Careerbuilding and I will like to offer you a video editor/content writer position. Let me know if you are interested to learn more about the position. // I then researched contact name and message bits for potential scam reports as found here.

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 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.

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 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.

+3

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.

+2

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.

+2

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.

+1

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.
