It was a job listing that I wanted to apply for a work from home job. When we got to the contract/ agreement there were errors on the contract verses what we chatted back and forth about on Teams Meetings. The chat went on for 2 days and then the contract was sent.

It did not list the correct wage for the training period, so it was revised and resent to me. Then I noticed with that one the position I applied for was not correct, so it was revised once again. when the 3rd revision was sent, I became more uneasy with the process and contacted the ScamPulse.com to inquire. As we spoke more and more red flags became apparent so I did not sign any agreement with this company.

Thank you, BBB, for saving me from a scam.

I received an email from Nicole Cook offering an interview via Zoom. I had previously received similar emails & texts messages with this format (they contact me directly, I had not submitted an application to their company), and they wanted me to purchase the equipment with funds that they would send to my account. Because of the previous experiences, I did not respond to the email. A few hors later I received a text from Sarah George offering the say interview process. Again I did not respond. I feel it is important to pass this information on because in this instance as well as the prior experiences they all said they obtained my information from my profile on CareerBuilder.

As it appears all offers that have been presented to me in this manner were on CareerBuilder I am deleting my account & profile with CareerBuilder.

I received and email from Fusion 360 from Harris Key who said that they were a recruitment manager asking if I was interested in a position. When I respond Yes I am interested in the next step of the interview process. They respond within 5 minutes with a questionnaire and interview questions that I needed to fill out and email them back. Once I completed that I was then offered a position that was different than the original position along with different pay. I then received a email back within 10 Minutes with new hire paperwork. I then Called the company and they informed me that there was no one working for that Company named Harris Key. I then requested through email more information regarding the company I have yet to receive a response. There was no phone call and from the time I responded to the email to when I was offered a job it was a total of 1 hour.

I was contacted via Text and email that they had come across my resume and felt I was a good fit for open position. The email included a link to the Proger website. When I replied that the job they sent me was way below where I am in my career, they replied with a list of other open positions they had which were higher up and higher paid and asked me to download the Signal App, which is when I did a web search. It appears they try to target people looking for a job and then get them to the point of sending in their ID and social by moving things along quickly.

A link to teams was given to me with a code. There was a Q&A interview via chat/ text messaging. Rudolph Cliff a Senior Recruiter at Blueboard interviewed me. He asked for my full name and location. He briefly gave me information on the company. Then told me if hired it will be done through Zoom. A list of all the job hiring. I chose Data Entry. Training would be for one week, 8am- 4pm 2 hours a day for $20/ hour. The following week I would start $29/ hour After the "interview" he said he would contact HR and get back to me within 30 minutes. Which at that time I was hired. He said my offer letter will be mailed to me. In the meanttime, to provide my full name, home address, phone number, email address and date of birth to him so that the secretary can enter it to the company' register. When I did not furnish the information, he asked what was going on. I asked if we could continue the next day since it was after 6pm EST I decided to stop there.

I got a text first but i dont remember the number. The text said to download the app teams. And look for nancy huston and to have a job interviews with her. She asked me questions about the position. Then she said yhey are going to send me a check to deposit into.my bank account which i found out a few days later was a fake check. Nanacy wanted me to send money from my account to a lady name shonnail turner on cash app. Then she wanted a copy of receipt. So i sent her a copy of receipt but no account number or anything personal on account. Then the check is on hold for 7 business day. But my bank contacted me telling me the check is fake. The nancy lady told me to send 2000 cash app to shonnail turner. But my bank denied the tranaction thankfully. Then the lady wanted me to go to cvs for what i dont know because i didnt go. So now i am going to my bank to close out my account and open a new one so these people will not do aything to my account.

I am looking for a job and applying online.

On Jan 8, 2024, I received a message on whatapp from a person names Abigail (+1 470 429 9193)

Abigal told ;

(Hello, I am Abigail, a recruiter from Career1 Employment Recruitment Agency. I got your number from the employment site. We have flexible remote roles that might interest you…. And the job from the Canada.) Please look at the attachment file.

On Jan 12, 2024, I received a message on whatsapp from a person called Aaliyah her number (+1 917 443 9376). From Global-bestchoice.com company. She said she is living in Toronto. And she would train me to be data developers to make optimizations for the hotels system online. The first step will learn how to do the optimization for the data online by clicking chick-in for the hotels to develop the optimization appearance for the hotel online through searching.

She trained me online to understand the processes for the first two days and paying me us$100 that deposited online for the global-bestchoice.com company to be able to start buy the chick-in for the hotels. The salary will be us$900 per week and %0.005 commission from every success click. I started on Monday 15, 2024, every day there are three tasks with 40 chick-in for every task to buy and back the money with the commission %0.005 from the price of the chick-in. If we start we could not stop and withdraw the amount. There is no any risk through trading and buying chick-in. The only risk when buying a little high chick-in that will appeared negative amount. If I started with $300 trading, the expected negative amount between $65 to $150 which I can afford it.

On Friday 19 , 2024 , I’ve started with the amount of us$350 that what I got from all days with the training amount and I deposited ca$110 to increase the commission amount. When I was in the last task, the company deposited $75 as a gift for the anniversary and during the task the company deposited $900. Which that make very high to me to buy the chick-in with my limited budget. The amount will become around $1400 and that caused very high negative amount.

The first negative amount happened at the step 14 and I had to deposit to the company to be able to continue the task. I got all my money to deposit us$547.4 and transferred it to this site. And suddenly at the step 39 another negative amount appeared with negative, and I took a loan from the bank credit line to be able to finish the task, and I’ll return back all the money after finishing the task.

But the system of the company deposited the last amount without confirm I paid and bought the chick-in and make the step 39 is pending as I did not deposit any thing to release the money to be able to do the last step. The system is not active and not confirm the process as I did nothing and jump to the last step with another third high negative amount -us$1547.54

This problem is a technical problem and should be fixed by the company but they do not care and refused to offer any solution. And according to the rules of the site any technical problem is there responsibility but the company does not care and refused the confirm I did and paid for the step 39 . The company should confirm this step to release the money with the commission to be able to do the last step . But the company left the step 39 is pending and that means I did not pay any thing and the system frozen the amount as not paid. Moreover the system add negative third amount which impossible to me to pay that.

They refused to solve this problem which is their responsible. I suggested many solutions to them but they don’t care and frozen my money that I got on Friday around us$3250.64

They refused to fix the system to release my money and refused to confirm the step 39 that I paid and showed is pending and the money is frozen by the site because the step 39 is not confirmed by the system. They refused to deposit the negative amount and they can withdraw it after finishing from the last step.

They only replied from their side to pay the negative amount which is very high to me and that amount is the responsible of the company because of their system and because the deposited the salary through I was doing the task which make the commission is a little high and at the same time the negative amount is very high to me.

Th Global-bestchoice.com company hired me as a trainer, but it seems it is a fraud and scam company. I worked with them for 5 days and they froze all the money that I got through doing the trade for the company and optimization data for the hotels. Their system is failed to confirm the process that I did and frozen my money. They requested to deposit more money to their site to allow me to withdraw my money. They scam and steal from me us$3250.54 and requested from me to deposit for their system us$1547.64 to release the amount.

As a graphic design major searching for opportunities I often have been the victim of these job offer scams at my most vulnerable times. They find you on job sites like indeed or if you have a public website/ portfolio and lure you in with an almost too good to be true starting salary. The chat or text interview was a dead giveaway. This person posed as Amanda Collazo who’s information is easily accessible online, the company does exist but they are way too advanced to be nearly offering a position to someone based off a glance at a site without any references or direct communication. They asked for me to interview via Skype text and sent a link , once I realized I was about to fall into another scam I stopped responding knowing that even links can be used to hack information. They also have a very scripted response to anything you ask. People go through enough already, just hoping this can help someone else .

I received a text about a job offer. The interview was through Microsoft Team via text. I was hired when the interview was concluded. Then received an email employment offer letter and direct deposit form. I was asked to fill the forms out and scan them to email them back. So being skeptical I contacted the company. I was informed they do not contact applicants through text messages and do not conduct interviews on Microsoft team.

It’s a scam.
