Type of a scam Employment
"Good morning. Thank you we've got your resume on Job site Indeed.com.
We will review your resume during the day. Please reply on this email if you are still looking for a job, I will give you more information regarding the company and available position."
After my reply stating i was looking for employment they gave me some more info. " We conduct our operations and continue the development in the field of Human Resources.Recently, we have expanded our staff and we are planning to open new offices in 4 cities of Canada. We would like to offer you a position of Human Resource Specialist. We have studied your resume and came to the conclusion that you will suit for this role."
The company seem legit as they provided a website with information. They then proceed to offer me a contract that seem real in where i stupidly accepted and sign. (by the way they request a picture of ur face with the signature of the contract) . The next step was a phone "Interview" a lady name Kate called me, that was my first suspicion. Kate seem like she was reading a of a paper, i could barely understand her and she didn't really ask me anything but stated the job offering from the email and and said i was hired. She asked me to email Bob and send him a date and time to begin my "probation/Training" which would be a duration of 10 days.
I later got an email From Bob Fauser stating the following:
"Our operator told me that you had interviewed.
I am pleased to inform you that you have passed the most difficult stage of our employment.
Congratulations! I'm very happy for you. I have always believed and knew that you will be in our team!
As the operator told me, you are a very intelligent and sensible person."
I found it funny that the "operator" stated that as we were barely on the phone for 5 minutes and i did not really speak. I decided to continue as i did not want to be judgy. Bod, then gave me my first task (which seem legit) i had to create a Job Ad on indeed, all was good till then. I was actually happy and excited to be doing work like that and from home! Reality sank in when he gave me my second task. He stated that the company used Bitcoin and proceed to tell me the following:
"I'll give you one Bitcoin account of our company. And I'll teach you how to use it.
Of course, you will need some Bitcoins. We will provide you with funds for this reason. I'll help you buy Bitcoins.
We need to be able to transfer money to you so that you can buy bitcoin for work.
Popular methods of bank transfers:
1. Transfer to a credit card by card number.
2. Interac e-transfer."
Red Flag! I was not comfortable and did not think it was legit to be using my bank account for work purposes especially on my first day of "training" I emailed Bod and stated i was not comfortable doing that and i did not want it to be a scam, he did not acknowledge that comment but simply stated that during my trail i had to use my bank account . I took a while to respond and twice he asked me if i was there and to keep in touch. I did some investigating and called the building where their office is supposed to be, according to their website and i was notified that they do not have an office there and they've had complaints about "The Halifax Staffing Inc" using their building address.
I then proceeded to email Bod the Following: "Unfortunately i won't be able to continue with the training. I apologize but i am not comfortable with this type of employment. Please remove me from your Database."
This was his reply: "Ok, thank you."
I am glad i did not provide my banking information however, i am upset they have my personal information and a picture. Hope they do not use it. Be AWARE! Don't provide any personal information until you confirm they are a legit company. I hate people taking advantage of good people looking for employment.
