Logistics KML is a sophisticated and well orchestrated scam stating to provide compensation for reshipping packages. They have a dashboard set up showing what packages will be shipped to your home, once they arrive you are to verify contents, take pictures and reship with a shipping label provided to you.

I found a job on FB that was work from home. The company Sysco I know was legit so I applied. I was reached out by recruiter and told to download Telegram and they ask for my credit card info. The recruiter wanted to do so much and get prepaid cards. Didnt seem legit so I cut off contact. They talked about someone coming to my home and I knew then it was weird. They did get my address but no additional personal info.

Neither have I ever had an employer to ask me to purchase a money gift card

I recently created an account on careerbuilders.com and uploaded a private resume as well as a public resume. I applied to an ASML Administrative Executive/Senior Data Entry remote full-time positions through the career builders app. I was contacted via email and via text message over having a job interview for that position. I proceeded with the interview, which was done on zoom chat (already skeptical) and was hired within the day based on my response questions. I received an acceptance offer letter that had all of the correct personnel and company logo information. I naturally had a red flag or two, but proceeded to begin training the next day. I was never asked to purchase anything or provide any personal information apart from my name and home address and of course my email is linked to my resume and job search app. They sent me a $4,950 check in the mail and asked me to deposit it so I may purchase my needed equipment. Thankfully my bank places larger checks on hold. I contacted my bank the next business day to claim a possible fraudulent check. They placed it on a 10 day further hold for investigation and contacted the other bank. Both banks confirmed it was a fraudulent check and proceeded to guide me through that process and advised me to not spend any of those funds and report the company.

I never clicked on any hyperlinks or weird addresses during this 5 day process. Thankfully! However, I reached back out to the recruiting desk clerk to tell them all of what I was told and had found out. They immediately went offline and never responded to me. I also tried calling 5 United States office locations for ASML, but found numbers were not active, voicemails that never responded to me, or the phone would keep ringing. I submitted an online contact form the day prior to ask further questions about my job offer. I still haven't got a response. Now I am under the impression the company and the companies website is a complete scam!

Unfortunately, I needed this position along with the benefits and pay, but I am glad I didn't get too far into the fake hiring process. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. I also, plan to contact Career Builders to let them know that that company job openings are fraudulent.

I don't trust the ASML website at this point. No one has contacted me back, there are missing phone numbers. Most reviews add up to a legit position, but I am now skeptical over the company entirely. I'm not sure what the scammer's aim was over all of this. It doesn't make any sense to me. Almost everything added up, but the check and the way they handled the first few days of correspondence.

BBB Note: According to the company's website their Global Headquarters address is: ASML Veldhoven, De Run 6501 5504 DR, Veldhoven The Netherlands +31 40 268 3000.

I was contacted via text as I had signed up ok to text me on job applications. Was asked to interview via telegram app. Sent offer letter and financial info. They sent me a check for 4995 and told me I could keep $150 as a sign on bonus and then use the rest to buy equipment needed for the job via their vendors.

I was approached by the alleged scammer via email for an open position. I did not see this position listed on the company’s employment page, but I figured it was an oversight and accepted an interview. At the agreed upon time, I called the interviewer twice via Skype and received no answer. He then proceeded to conduct the interview with written messages. His responses were appropriate but sometimes felt a little off or automated. He assured me I would have an answer the following morning. The next day I was offered the position, with a generous salary, a bonus, and a promised stipend to purchase a new work computer, phone, etc. I mentioned that I still had some questions about the position. The answers I was given were, again, alright but sort of general or automated. Big questions such as the supervisor I would be reporting to were ignored completely. There was some pressure to send info (name, address, emergency contact) in order to receive the employment offer letter, which I sent. There was more pressure to sign the letter and begin the position almost immediately. I held off and sent an email reply to the offer letter— most of the previous communication had been on the Skype app— with my questions about the job that had yet to be answered. The email address was very general and not name-specific. I have been ignored since this point, which was a couple of weeks ago. The company seems legitimate and I have found the person I was communicating with on LinkedIn (no profile picture) and their name mentioned in a press release a few years back. I read a review elsewhere that another individual felt their interview was with a chat bot, and someone else who said they had been scammed out of a few thousand dollars in purchasing their new laptop, work phone, etc. Not sure if this is a scam or just poor manners.

I was contacted by a man via text message. He had stated that he found me through Zip Recruiter/ Indeed Job Boards. The interview was through Skype via direct message by a different man. He had told me that I had gotten hired as an Executive Administrative Assistant. He wanted me to fill out a W-4 & a letter of employment as well as send him a picture of my Driver's License. I also noticed that I never filled out an application and he had sent out a check to my mailing address. The letter that came in with the check didn't look professional at all. I had told him that I was currently in school and won't be able to leave until I graduate next week. He had emailed me 2 different checks from 2 different banks. He wanted me to deposit the checks; however my bank had detected fraud and closed my account. Not only were these people trying to collect my information but they were also impersonating a REAL company.

On 9/21/22 via Linkedin.com, I received a resume inquiry from someone claiming to be from William Larry Law Firm for a Virtual Assistant position. After some conversation, on 9/22/22, the individual requested that I deposit a check in the amount of $3,950 for "equipment, printer, and first weeks pay" that would be mailed to my address. The position listed on LinkedIn offered to pay $60/ hr or $720 a week for 3-4 hours of work each day for 4 days. I have since declined the position. The profile has been deleted from LinkedIn, possibly because it is a scam. I have attached the email and other information I received.

I live in Calgary Alberta and was contacted by a company called ARTA Inc about 3 days ago through email saying they found my resume on indeed. I was interested in the job and signed an application form, a training document, and gave them a picture of my drivers license. Upon getting a phone call after being in touch through email for the past couple days I asked some questions and the lady on the phone seemed as though she wasn’t able to answer my questions about the legitimacy of the company. She said they would pay the training period over interact E-transfer and upon asking her how the company pays employees after that she simply stated that it would be discussed in the training, I also asked her for more information about the company and she continued to tell me that that would also be discussed in the training, so I searched the company on better business bureau and found the company had been reported previously in 2019 to be an employment scam. Luckily I didn’t give them any of my banking information or SIN # but still very concerned that they have my drivers licence. I’ve attached the application form they sent me as an example. No company address is stated anywhere on the forms, I was in touch over email with a lady named Shazi. I was told I was going to get a call for an interview from her but when shazi phoned me it was from a weird number and she told me I was hired and could start that day without actually doing an interview or asking any questions. I asked her what the training looks like and she brushed it off saying she didn’t understand my question. I asked her some other questions and she didn’t seem like she wanted to answer any of them, I asked her if we get paid bi-weekly or bi-monthly and she said bi-weekly and when I asked her which day of the week we get paid she said she wasn’t sure and continued to brush me off and tell me all I needed to do was sign some more documents she had sent me to set up for Interac e-transfer. I’ve attached the application form I was sent to fill out and sign & they also asked me to attach a picture of my drivers license with it. There was also a training document I had signed which looked really sketchy and then she sent me another document after our phone call asking for information to set up Interac e-transfer, which didn’t seem very legit so I did not sign that document because I realized at this point that maybe this was a scam.

A woman by the name of Nancy Betty Richardson posted about a work from home job on Facebook that I was interested in. She had me download a app called Telegram off of the App Store to contact the hiring manager through so I could interview. I thought this was a bit odd but I’ve been out of the workforce for a while so I went with it. I interviewed with a woman named Bliss Connie through Telegram. Then before giving out any personal info like SSN or Bank Numbers I contacted the business they were claiming to be from and confirmed that they did not actually work there. I have now blocked them completely.

The scammers reached out about a job on indeed. They claimed to be offering medical customer service but the website is construction. When asked about it they changed the subject. After verifying I was unemployed they asked for my bank account information to "verify direct deposit compatibility" When I didn't give them my account numbers they blocked me. What kind of evil person purposely targets unemployed people to steal from? Who purposely chooses victims that are already suffering?

Was contacted by instant messenger informing me that I would be a good fit for a data entry position and that they found my information on indeed.com

Was requested to download program telegram.org so we could do an interview. Went through the interview process via text and was offered a job position. They emailed me a job offer but wanted me to include all my bank information before proceeding.
