I received a text from a number claiming that they were interested in interviewing me for a position at their company. They did not specify which position that would be. And asked if I was available at 5:30 on 10/31/222 for a zoom interview. I was not familiar with that company, but I recently applied for a lot of jobs on Indeed, and thought I may have forgotten. However, I did not see the posting on my Indeed archive either. Nevertheless, I said that I would be willing to interview, but asked if they could send me the specific position that I applied for. They ignored my question about sending the specific position that I supposedly applied for and said that they would send an email with a link to the zoom interview. They also said that they would send a text message 30 minutes before to confirm.

I received the email with the zoom link on the day of the interview. I looked up the names of the HR representative ("*****) and hiring manager (****** *******") included in the email and could not find them on the company website or on the company's LinkedIn page. I also did not find any job openings related to anything I applied for on the company website. This company would be D2S Inc. which is a legitimate company, but as far as I know, it is not based in the state where I live. And finally, the email address was flagged with a question mark by Gmail, indicating that the email address could not be verified.

In light of all of these inconsistencies, I decided not to go through with the interview. I also received a text to confirm the interview 2 minutes before it was scheduled. Just to be clear, I never attended the interview and only talked to this person a few times through text messages. Regardless, I am almost positive that this was a scam. I applied for several jobs on Indeed in the months leading up to this, so assume that this is how this person got my email and phone number. I am just relaying this information and reminding everyone to always verify the identity of the person interviewing you, particularly for remote interviews.

I have been applying to many jobs recently. I got a text saying they have received my application and told me a little about a customer support remote role for $25 and hour. Asked me reply with "i'm interested" if i was still interested. I replied i was interested. They told me to add [email protected] to my zoom for an interview. I texted back asking what company this is for. No response.

I added mary thomas to my zoom thinking we would have a video chat. This was not the case. It was text only asking me to answer questions. Then told me I needed to buy equipment and they would reimburse me. I asked a lot of other questions that were dismissed and was told I have a limited to time let them know if I would like to move forward...

Looked at this BBB.org site and saw similar patterns.

Type of a scam: Fake Check/Money Order

I wanted to contact you to inform you of a job scam I was lured into. I found the job listed under the jobs tab on LinkedIn. It appeared when I searched for “remote job data entry.” The company is “LSB Industries Inc.” The company name, address and logo were used as part of the job posting.

I applied and was emailed and offered an interview. The interview was conducted via Skype messaging only, leading to me being offered the job that day. I was then emailed a contract and w-4 form to which I completed, signed and returned, with a copy of my drivers license front/back pictured. The scammer then had access to my social security number, knows my address, etc. The contract was very thorough and explained how I would be sent working materials/equipment/software/etc. I was told I would be in contact with a supervisor. The dates of me being sent equipment or getting to interact with the supervisor continued to be pushed back multiple times.

The Skype messaging continued and the ‘hiring manager’ instructed me how to use multiple electronic checks to deposit to my bank and then send money to ‘vendors’ via Apple Pay and Zelle. This continued for 2 weeks. I was told the money sent was being used to purchase software and equipment for my home office.

Once a check bounced and the amount was withdrawn from my account, the ‘hiring manager’ stopped talking with me via Skype.

I have taken all information, emails, Skype messages, and contract/W4 to the police and filed a fraud report. The police instructed me to contact IRS, BBB, Linkedin and LSB Industries.

I thought I was hired for a work from home job. I was supposed to receive packages and take pictures and return them to the nearest UPS or FEDEX store. Basic salary per month was 2000.00 and 50 per package shipped. Payment was to be per mo. I did these things and received the packages, I had a dashboard to go to and information was on that dashboard. But I did not receive pay when expected. I called and no one returned my calls. A lot of expensive products came through me, but I followed the so called employers directions.

The scammer advised that he will send me packages and I would have to open it take photos and mail it out using the labels provided in their website for a base salary of $3,000 plus bonuses for each packages sent I fell for it. I was never paid for my services and I would hate for anyone else to fall for this. When you’re going through trying times you can easily fall for a scam like this.

Type of a scam: Employment

I was contacted by this company, saying that they viewed my resume' and offered me a job working from home as a shipping clerk. They then proceeded to send me all types of correspondence that appeared to be legit with the hiring process, although there was no in person or Zoom contact. Everything was explained by my 'supervisors' and 'managers' about the pay and how to ship the packages. I was encouraged to download their dashboard manual and study it. Long story short, I shipped a few packages, and things were going okay until my expected pay date came and went, which was about a month from the time of my first shipment. When I started calling to find out where the payment was, I suddenly couldn't get a hold of any of the contacts, and then I also wasn't able to log into the work portal. Called, texted, and left messages all day, and no response. That's when I knew for sure that this was a scam. Unfortunately, they did get some personal info per the employment documents that I filled out. It's awful that people actually create businesses with the sole intent to scam. In hindsight, there were some flags, but there were just enough info to make other things seem legit. SMDH!!

Type of a scam: Fake Check/Money Order

I was offered an interview through email. They then proceeded to conduct the interview via skype. After the interview, I was told I will have to buy certain accounting softwares to be able to do the job. Then was told I will be sent a check in the mail, which I will use to purchase the equipment needed for the job. They then sent me a Form I-9 and employee agreement, which sent with my social security number and ID. They then told me when I deposit the check, I will send them a deposit slip as well from my bank. This is when I realized this must be a scam.

I was reached out to about an interview. I had been applying on LinkedIn and indeed and assumed it was a job I applied for on one of them. The interview was scheduled for the following day where i was told it would be conducted on Ring Central, an app similar to Zoom. I anticipated a video call but the interview actually consisted of 11 questions via instant messenger - that was all. It was about 20min long. The next day, I received an offer letter (see attached) with the official name and address of the company. I looked it up online and it shows this company is permanently closed and, actually, that their CEO was just sentenced to prison time for FDA fraud (just sentenced as in September of 2022). I called the 2 phone numbers listed on the website, one was disconnected and the other directed me to a plasma donation center.

I don't believe this business is active anymore and the entire interview process left me with a bad taste in my mouth which only got worse once I found the company online.

The pay, benefits, and job duties are all very attractive and I feel could easily trap other people into believing it and giving these scammers access to their personal information if they believe they have secured a job with this "company"

Thank you for your time and consideration. I also have screenshots of the emails if those would be beneficial.

I am looking for work online. I was contacted by a company named Unitek Tech, website is

https://unitektech.biz

They offered me a position as Customer Service Officer, had someone from their "Human Resources" department interview me, gave me access to their online portal to upload all the usual documentation, CDL, I9 Information which has my social security number information, etc.

When I researched the company on Linked In, there was nothing to be found, I called their 888 number and no-one answers. Then I researched their address and they are not listed on the building directory. They say that they are "Sales Force Registered Consulting Partner"

Once I asked them about not being on linked in, and my other concerns they blocked me from logging into their website. Now, they've got all my personal info!!! Please don't make the same mistake that I did!!!

They even have a "company handbook" that I've uploaded for you!

Obviously I am concerned about credit fraud, so I put a freeze on my accounts with the three credit bureau's. What else can I do to make sure #1) I am protected #2) no-one else falls victim to this company? This is why I am reporting the BBB.

I was applying for a data entry job. When they contacted me told me they had reviewed my resume they thought I would be a great fit for their company. I was told to download the Google Chat app, login and talk with Desiree Crews. I did that. We went through a series of questions and she/he told me about the benefits and the hours. Seemed to be legitimate. She then told me to hold on that she was going to check with the HR department and when she came back online told me that I had been hired. They were going to send me a check so that I could buy the equipment that I need to do the work. Unfortunately I fell for the whole thing they sent me a check and then wanted a screenshot of where I deposited the check. I did all this and then realized it was a big scam. I called my bank and had them to put a stop on that check. They had their investigators look into this. I didn’t lose any money but the following week my Facebook messenger account was hacked and I can only believe it was these people Desiree Crews and Patrick Taylor (Financial Officer for the company) spoke with him regarding the check and deposit -could be 2 people or maybe just one person behind this scam. I hope that no one else will fall for anything like this. i know that I have learned my lesson

I got a text message from an Elizabeth Nielsen claiming to be an HR assistant inviting me to an interview for a Data Clerk position with training at $16/hr and after two weeks I’d make $27/hr.

I sent my resume and did the online interview and later received an offer letter stating, “ Biotech Group Inc is pleased to offer you the position of a Data Entry Clerk although there seems to be a situation. The Companys' approved vendor is running a skeletal workforce and would be unable to make shipment of the required office equipment to you at this time. We sourced for a new vendor whose payment methods are limited to Apple Pay, Zelle and Venmo, which are currently not available to the Company.

If the aforementioned payment methods are readily available to you, Biotech Group will be happy to send you a check. You are to use the funds from this check to complete the payment to the new vendor. Kindly advise if the aforementioned payment methods are available to you and that the Company can rely on your full trust, commitment and diligence in carrying out this task.” I later learned that they send you a check and it’ll bounce.

Don’t wast your time or get your hopes up with these people. I googled the number and found out they have also pretended to be other companies.
