Jackson Partners / imposter Reports & Reviews (1)

On Monday, July 17, i was contacted by a man called Tony Delas from a Company, Jackson Partners, LLC. (original email attached). They had approached me for several job offers and had given me a link to a teams meeting site with either video or chat option. I emailed them back on this email as I wanted to know more about it prior to starting a conversation. It took them a few days to get back to me.. but yesterday, they reiterated in the same email string that I can join Teams for conversation. So I did. I used my account (as I use it a lot in my own career).. and used the chat option to contact the CEO Ken Croney. I sent a message and he took awhile but finally came back around 4pm.

He had specific tasks that I had to do IN ORDER to be presented as a potential empluyee. I was looking at a P/T HR assistant. He sent me an enormous amount of pre-written material for introduction to the company, website link and detailed interview questions. I have attached some of those as well as I was taking screen shots during the interview. I also still have all of his conversations on my Teams chat IM.

The Job was offered at $28/hr and $23/hr for a one week training period. They would be working with me to purchase all the equipment required (they got into detail on that later).

After the long, extensive interview questions that I had to answer in a row. He said that he needed 3-5 minutes to talk this over with his peers. I waited. He came back with a formula that he used (supposedly) on my answers and that I was at 91% above average. So I was hired. He then said that they would be sending me an email with an "offer letter" and a check for the amount of the equipment PLUS a $1000 bonus as a new-employee. I was thrilled thinking that I was getting into a great company. I'm in the TV/Film business and they are on strike so I was desperate and emotional (perfect target).

They sent me a with the check/offer letter from one of their associates: Chief Accountant/Payroll Specialist, Zoe Higgins (Zoe Higgins <[email protected]>). Ken then said that I needed to get the check deposited now to show good faith and sign the offer letter. I STILL didn't figure out that this was a hoax as he did such a good job with the set-up of company profile and interview. So I started the process of printing out both check and letter. Signing letter and sending that back thro the chat IM. Then I went on to my bank app on my iPad and deposited the printed out check.

He told me to send a screen grab of the confirmation of the deposit. I first took the screengrab and then erased my partial account # before sending to him.

When Is sent him the confirmation, he said that it was wrong. They should have allowed more money up from and not on hold.. so we needed to do it again. Zoe sent another check via email)

That's when I noticed the check was not the same company, not from the same bank not the same check #. I asked Ken about it.. and he said it was because they were using several of their companies. I started to become skeptical but kept up the charade to get some info.. I told him hold on I'll try to deposit again (mobile). I didn't but told him that I was.. I came back after 2 attempts and told him that my bank wasn't going to allow this deposit tonight that I would have to CALL them and talk to someone PERSONALLY to get this resolved. He said ok.. but don't be late tomorrow online.

Then.. I said to him. I need to have some proof that you are who you say you are. I will call the number that I located that is associated with your Business tomorrow am.. then we can continue.

I NEVER HEARD BACK.

I immediately called my Bank and spoke to Fraud Dept. They started claim, assured me since I greeked out my account # I was safe and took measures to withdraw the fraudulent check. I was not penalized nor did they think that I did it.

I am embarrassed. AND I located another person that had the same experience with this company back in Dec 2022 he wrote out his experience on SCAMPULSE.COM.

Link to his complaint: (https://www.scampulse.com/jackson-partners-llc-reviews#item_form).

This website looks legit.. however when I called today.. no-one answered in any Dept.. and the voicemail loops back around no matter what extension you call.

I think this is a VERY ELABORATE SCAM.

I did locate Ken's phone number and called and got his voicemail but didn't leave a message. That # is (610) 745-7300.

He kept this a very face paced until I was having trouble with the check.. then he didn't seem to mind to wait.I do have the original Teams Chat that I don't mind sharing with you if you need.

Feel free to contact me with any questions and I have a lot of ref documents including emails, checks and offer letter plus all of the conversation had been documented on my Teams Chat IM.. it is still there. I have tried several times to upload a doc.. but it keeps stalling.</[email protected]>
