This was a company that I signed a contract for to work for. I was told I would receive my first check after 30 days. 30 days had passed so I asked for my check. And they completely ghosted me. They took me off of their account that I had signed up for through their website. And they are refusing to answer any phone calls, emails, and text messages. I had a base pay of $3150 And a bonus of $580. I was taking packages opening them taking pictures of them sending the pictures to the company and then they would send me a prepaid label back. I would then drop the packages off at FedEx or UPS and then submit my receipt to the company , with this being said, that was 30 days of work with no pay. I am really just frustrated with the whole thing. And I want other people to know that this business is not a serious business.

Answered an ad through Indeed for a Mechanical Designer. Received a reply and a screening test, information about the company , Grant Electric, details about the job, etc. I filled out the screening and received an offer letter. Then received an employment application with personal information and banking information and details about setting up home office. The baking information was peculiar and did not give it. The man's name used is Paul Mekela phone number 650-267-3805.

Was approached about a remote Data Entry Position paying $35 an hour with RWS Life Sciences. Was advised to log into RingCentral for my interview. The next day received offer of position on company letterhead followed up with an Assessment assignment. Was told the next day to look for email with instructions regarding my 'bonus' for completing the Assessment as well as funds to set up my office. My antenna went up then, because I currently work remotely and my current company provides all the equipment and software. I received the email today with the check Front/Back that I was instructed to print, cut out, and write 'deposit only' on the back. Check is drawn on HALFF ASSOCIATES, INC. in Richardson, Texas on the Prospensity Bank for $4,399.00.

Scammer presented their selves as Blackstone Shipping. They shipped packages to my house, had me open the packages and take pictures of the products. Then they would email me a shipping label to drop the package off at UPS store. I had an "online dashboard" that showed packages shipped and amount I earned per package. My total pay was $2800. I was supposed to get paid on 02/28/2023 and was not paid. When I called the "business" number (405-648-8915/405-266-4711) and questioned my pay, I was assured I would receive it. After hanging up the phone, I tried to log in to my dashboard and my account was blocked already. I have called numerous times but have had no luck with talking to anyone or getting return phone calls. I filled out tax forms for this place and they have my social security number. Today I had suspicious activity on my card that the money was supposed to be deposited on.

I applied for Advanced Call Center Technologies. I thought it was odd Malia said the last day they were hiring was Saturday. they had you complete the background check there on their computer, and I requested a copy. I looked this company up furlther and the Better Business Bureau has it listed as a collection agency. They never stated it was a collection agency and I sent an email and was told it was not a collections agency. I did find a review where someone said they thought they might be doing something illegal. Then, they sent an email saying I had to come complete a form, which I already completed forms on Saturday. I went out and there was someone else's information laying in plain sight on the counter and the gentleman got huffy with me. I advised once turning my paper in to him that he needed to turn my paper over so my personal information did not show and he was dismissive. I called Malia about it and she said thanks for the up[date. (?) I then received an email saying the calls was not starting 03/06/2023 as stated but 03/27/2023. something is very odd about this place and someone really needs to check this out. They have my personal information, like social security number, etc., but I refused to give bank information. I also thought it was odd that when I called Malia back initially, the phone said " put in your voicemail number." then she told me to call another number- a cell phone number. Now they are sending me info as though I never applied and they have my information. Please help.

They asked if I was interested in working as a rental assistant and I said yes but I never had an interview and right away they sent me a picture of a letter of employment which was weird. Then they sent me a check that was from a car dealership saying it was my first job and now that I have to go cash it and then send money somewhere since they don’t have us bank yet cause they’re a European company also .

I applied for a remote job via LinkedIn. For photo editor, for unique furniture. Days later I received an email from a Brian Miller, ([email protected]) was the email used.

Then he set up an interview appointment with a Lisa Brass. I was instructed to download an app called "wire" where a 30 min. text interview was conducted. Next day I received a phone call from Brian Miller congratulating me, I got the job! He informed me an email had been sent with onboarding instructions. I found this email in my spam folder. This time it came from a different email address ([email protected]). I was asked for passport, bank info....etc. I am attaching files.

Was approached by them for a job where all I had to do was intercept packages and reset them out with the compensation of 2400 a month plus $100 per VIP packages and then $40 per regular package so after about 2 weeks I get suspicious I get suspicious I looked them up and then when I confronted them on the scam did you started threatening me with police and all kind of stuff but then nobody was telling me that I was what I was doing was illegal all they were worried about were their packages . Needless to say when I contacted them and confronted them I was blocked from the dashboard blocked from my phone numbers and left with all these packages that I wouldn't ship out because I wasn't getting compensated none of the managers have last names they just give you their first names.

I received an email invitation to a Skype interview 2/24/23, from a gmail address. The interview was 10 to 15 question and answers via text only. The decision to hire me was within 7 to 15 minutes. They messaged me move through Skype saying that I have been accepted for the remote position. When I requesting a video chat, the interviewer made up some excuse about being to busy. However, did continue to email me. They did email a job offer that I was to sign, scan and email back with my signature. I emailed

them that I would respond on Monday. The training would begin 3/3/23.

I have an employer from OK called Omnicare365 that refuses to pay me the correct amount of hours on my last check. They use a system named genysys that is used to receive calls, you search the Internet about genysys it is a faulty system and it logs agents out constantly. Omnicare365 decided to erase my 80.67 logged hours because their system genysys only had me down for working 17 hours. I have been complaining to my manager about genysys for about a week so he was aware the system was not working and informed me to call tech , which didn’t help. I tried speaking to them about paying me my correct amount of hours but they refuse to pay me correctly. From 2/5-2/18 they erased my 80.67 logged hours and put them to 17 to reflect their faculty system called genysys. The also informed me that hours that are not in genysys will not be paid for , after letting me go. I have no signed paperwork that binds that agreement. I was Infact taking calls but their system does not reflect this being that the system has not been working properly for awhile. The company tried to pay my ISP or my computer for the reason genysys wasn’t working but the computer and ISP were already approved during the orientation process. My computer and WiFi are compatible because I’ve received calls before but the system stopped working suddenly . Although I expressed this , the company refuses to pay me. They also tried to lock me out of my email from receiving proof of my complaints on genysys to the managers , please help me. The company paid me for 17 hours on 2/24 , but still owes me 59 hours .

I did not receive any payment after a month of work. Many people are involved in this scam. They use your information to order packages online, so they pose as you! The packages are then sent to your address. Then you upload the information to a dashboard, that they registered for you, of the package. Then they have you send out the package and then that’s how you get paid. Did it for a month and never received pay. Identity compromised!

this bull**** company decided to send me a fake hiring. So I fall through with it and noticed some things were off like why would they offer 3K for me to sit on my butt at home?…. But I went with it like a dumb*** and waited a whole month and would receive packages like a fake Amazon rings , ordering and a shipment of gap baby clothes. I didn’t take it into mine until one day I had to do a pick up at FedEx. The man told me hey ma’am, this looks like a scam, so I immediately asked my boss and she was acting weird like she didn’t know how to answer the question. So around my payday I continue to call her and she gives me no answer, and everyone just goes ghost on me with all of my information…. At this point I’m worried about my banking account but honestly…. “eff” people like this.

The employer emailed me multiple times with a job offer and a google doc to sign to accept the job as a PR Manager. He, Jessie Duff, has said multiple times that he would be calling me. I only receive emails in the mornings and in the evenings. I was able to start work as soon as he received the signed document, which I had to sign more than once. I have mentioned my skepticism and despite me asking for clarity, it has been avoided. They say that I will be mailed a check once a month as well as the money that I need to pay to the companies that assist me with creating marketing content.
