Thanks Sasha for encouraging us
I received an email, then a call from a recruiter with US Tech Solutions, who is based out of New Jersey (and I live in Texas). I'm sure she got my information from the many job search websites that are online, because I have never applied with them. She said she had a position that I was good fit for and wanted to submit my resume. She said the position was for a 1 month contract, with starting date of immediately. The client would only be conducting phone screens for the position, so I said yes. That was Wednesday. Today in the morning, the recruiter calls me back and says Congratulations, the company (which I will not name) has chosen you for this position, which you will start on Monday
. So I thought wow thats great, but no one ever called me? So right away she says, I just need to get a few details from you, please state your full legal name, okay, so I did. Next she asks for my SSN, thats when I said wait a minute... So I didn't disclose my SSN, told her I would be calling her back. I've googled US Tech Solutions and have not found anything regarding them being scammers, but I'm a firm believer of if its too good to be true...
. So, have any of you worked through US Tech Solutions before? Like I said, I can't find any negative comments regarding someone being a victim of identity theft because of this company, but I'm still having a hard time convincing myself to send them all of my personal information, which is needed to complete the background screening. Please help!

So glad for you that everything turned out well, I am like you also, I would wait also if asked for SS#
I received a text yesterday from someone who wrote that she was contacting me from Coventry Health Care and was I interested in working from home.? She said they got my resume from CAREER BUILDER. If I was interested I was to open hangouts and add the HR manager for an interview. So far sounded like it could happen. So I do so and have an interview
I am feeling suspicious however because the pay is too high, I need software to do the job, there were 3 jobs offered, which one did I want?. No instruction regarding a drug test or background search. His hangout address was gmail. Why not telephone? He said that they would send me all the docs. for hire and interviews
me. Gets back in an hour and tells me I have the job. Here,s the hook. THEY WILL SEND ME A CHECK VIA FEDEX THAT I AM TO DEPOSIT AND PURCHASE THE NECESSARY SOFTWARE TO DO THE JOB
First he said to wait until the check clears but also says he wants me to get going ASAP. I agree to continue the conversation today at 9am. Meanwhile I call COVENTRY which is now Aetna and was told this gentleman is NOT an employee and that they never interview via email or IM, but that they MAY interview by phone. His initial message had the corporate logo
So this morning he IMs me and asks if I have ever heard of mobile banking. I am thinking that he is going to ask for my account information so they can transfer funds directly to my account. At this point I am out of patience and tell him I had just finished speaking to COVENTRY and he is not an employee of that company. Less than a minute later he is offline
I had a little more fun and texted to the person that sent me to him asking if Albert had told her that the Jig was up. She replied Talk to him. He's the HR manager. I answered No he isn't and neither of you work for Coventry
. I'm not brilliant but there were enough gaps and errors that made me take time to investigate. An error on my part was choosing an option at CAREER BUILDER that let everyone view my resume instead of only employers that contract with them. In a way they were stupid. My resume clearly states experience in banking and finance.

may i get the phone number you used to contact coventry, thank you
I've been unemployed for a while now, so when I got a text on my phone telling me that my resume had been reviewed, and that they wanted to interview me on Google Hangouts, I didn't see anything wrong.
The details were, work at home customer service, 5 days of training at 8 hours a day for $12 an hour, then bumping me to $30 an hour for 8 hour days. In addition, they would be sending me a check (Red flag 1) to cover the setup of my home office, to include an HP Envy laptop, 3 in 1 printer, cell phone (which they would pay the monthly bill for) and software. When I said that I had all that equipment, I was told for warranty purposes, I needed to use their approved
vendor in case something happened and work needed to be done. (Red flag 2). The company name they used was Magnum Medical
out of Latvia.
Attempting due diligence, I Googled Magnum Medical
and found their location in Latvia, in addition to a couple of locations in America, per websites. I then checked them on Glassdoor.com, and again, there was a page for them, but no real information. (Red flag 3)
So, they're supposed to FedEx me a check overnight. I was given the tracking number, and as it turned out, the package was being held at FedEx initially due to incorrect address
, which was changed to irregularities on the account
by FedEx.
As I'm explaining this to the supervisor
, he tells me that while I'm waiting on the check, I need to go to the store and buy 2 $100 I-Tunes cards, so I can provide them with the serial numbers on the cards in order to unlock
their proprietary software. (Red flag 4).
This was what ultimately confirmed the scam for me. I reported the issue to Apple, who confirmed it was a scam, and then I reported it to IC3, the FTC and the FBI.
Well, the check arrived today, and conveniently enough was drawn on an out of state bank - i.e. one with no branch offices in my state (Georgia). So I called their customer service line and was informed in no uncertain terms that the cashier's check was a fake.
Then they tried to contact me on Google Hangouts again, asking me if I'd received the check and to confirm the amount ($3650) and when I was going to deposit it.
I informed them that Comerica had verified that the check was fraudulent, at which point they attempted to deny that, and I shut them down with look, we both know you're trying to run a scam. This entire conversation from the beginning has been recorded and sent to the FTC, IC3 and the FBI.
So, long story short, if someone gives you a job offer online, then offers to send you a check for required office equipment
that you are to buy only from their approved vendor
, don't bother. This is a variation on the overpay
check scam, and if you deposit the cashier's check
you will be asked to wire a large portion of it to their vendor
, only to find that you'll have an empty bank account and possible criminal charges instead of the equipment you thought you'd ordered for a job that doesn't exist.
So please please be careful.

Omg I went through the same exact scam except it was Cardinal Health and the oay was 30 for training and 25 for job. Was the recruiter Mary Wind? Just so you know red flag 1 is how legit employers gave you get materials. I worked from home for a guy my then husband knrw and that was how it was set up. He researched computers and printers sent me a check and I paid for it. The only time I had to front the money was supplies because that was variable. Slow months I didn't need that many paper packs and ink lasted longer but I would keep the receipts and once a month mail them and he reimbursed me. Legit home employers don't have specific vendors you have to go through. Though. He sent me to best buy cause that was where he found the computer with the price he wanted to pay.

I smell a rat
I was sent some information about a secret shopper for Walmart. I replied that I was interested to learn more. I never filled out an application. They replied immediately with information and they Fed ex me overnight with information. Sure enough they overnited me with Fed Ex and sent me a check for $2995.75. One Walmart evaluation shopper form. This seems a little to good to be true? Any one know anything about this ?
Yea I got the same thing was it real?

I had an interview this morning w/ Kimberly Walter with TecAlliance; supposedly the company was opening offices in my area and they wanted people to work from home getting the business off the ground and then assisting in setting up the office. I was to set up an account on Hangout and the interview took place on there. Instead of video conferencing, she used the instant messaging feature. I was offered the job and great benefits, felxible hours, 401k, etc. They would send me a check to set up my home office and sge ratled off a list of things I would need. I asked where the home office was located out of and she told me South Jordan, UT. After the interview I called the home office and was told that it was a scam and that they were not opening office in my area.

There is a new job scam out there. Someone posing as the head of HR for a California based company called Aviana Global (Michael Walker) is contacting job seekers to join the team as a work from home rep. The company itself is legit however, he's making contact by wanting to do a online only interview through Google hangouts. He offers to send you a check to buy a new laptop and wants you to deposit the check. ..withdraw the cash. .and use the cash to send it to one of their online vendors. I did my research and found this out on Mike Walkers linked in page because he had posted a fraud alert
