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.

Sammers Email: [email protected]

They approached me via text because I was seeking a job. The interview process was extremely fast. Got the "Job" in less than an hour

Try to coerce me into buying an unknown product that I was told I need to work for them. Got aggressive when I said I wasn't comfortable paying 200+ dollars for the product. Instantly ended the call and cut all ties.

Whole hiring process done via email. I was hired without speaking to a live person. They offered me the position and stated they would send me a check to set up my office. No contact info or anything remotely professional about the emails.

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.

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.
