If they ask for a credit report.... and only want it from a site that they provide ... it's definitely a scam.  Stay away.

i'm looking for a bakc ground check web page

Sent him an Email on a job he posted on Craigslist. This is what I got back. Why does he want me to go to this site its not even spelled right. Not going there because it will probably put malware on my computer. Got to be a scam!!!

Anyone know how to look into this deeper in order to bust people like this?

I'm glad I googled this guys name and number before calling.  I responded to a craiglist ad (Arizona). It's hard enough trying to find a decent job without all the added in obstacles(scams). The following is the email I recieved back:

Just an FYI for anyone watching this thread.  I also received this one:



Hi,

Thank you for sending your resume to us. The job responsibilities are clear, you will be answering the phone, scheduling meetings, and running company errands such as buying office supplies and making bank deposits.  When running errands you will be provided with a company credit card to make supply purchases, etc.

We have had some bad experiences with prior employees taking advantage of having access to a company credit card in the past, so before we can schedule an interview, we need you to get a credit check. We prefer you use http://jobseooit.quickreports.info to obtain this information as they currently have a free trial. We have also found their reports to be the most accurate.
When you submit your information they will send you your credit score.
When you email me your credit score, we can schedule for an interview.
Please do not email me your credit report, as this may have private information in it. Just send me your credit score. If you have a low credit score, that will not prevent you from having an interview with us, but it does show us that you are trustworthy and responsible.

Please send me your schedule with availability for an interview along with your credit score. I am looking forward to your response.

Sincerely,

Paul Allen
HR Manager



I didn't click on the link but goggled it and got nothing.

F***. Just called him about 30 minutes ago and decided to check out the website he wanted me to get a 'free background check' from. http://veribeing.com/371.html . Luckily it brought me to this forum. Man, that really sucks now though. For a minute i thought i had a job :(

Hi -

I got the same email this morning.  Tried to call number but got no one...I guess this is a scam.

I got the same e-mail after applying for a job on craigslist. I am glad I googled the number because it sure is a scam!

Looks like a scam...I just got a similar email from Charles Moore, also.  Same "Cell Number" as Kevin Hodges, apparently.  Here's a copy of the email:

Got  your  e-mail  earlier  and  perfect  we  can  work  something out
definitely.   When would it be possible for you to come in and meet to
talk about the job?  Please if you can have your resume printed out, a
credit report - identity-guards.net is free and I'm familiar with them
(bring in the Equifax) and also a second form of identification.  Please don't worry if you have bad credit, it won't negatively affect your chances or anything.

Same as all the others-can work something out-blah blah blah.  My email came from Charles Moore @ 323 892-0867.  These people really steam me!

THIS PERSON OR PERSON'S ARE SCAM ARTISTS. I APPLIED FOR A JOB ON CRAIGSLIST AND I GOT AN EMAIL OR SHOULD I SAY THIS PERSON KEEPS EMAILING ME AND WANTS A CREDIT REPORT! TIS IS WHAT THE EMAIL READ:



Hi ,

Thank you I received your email and I'm sure we can work something out.
When would you be available to meet for an interview?  There's a couple
perks of the job I'm sure you'll appreciate, company cell phones is one of
the main things.  If you're available sometime soon call me during the day
please.  Also if you have your resume printed out please have that
available and also credit report printed out - free-credits-reports.com
would suffice and is free - having both of these will help speed up the
process on my end, also bring some form of identification.  Oh and bad
credit won't negatively hurt your chances for the job, so don't worry about
that if that's the case.

Got the same email from a Charles Moore.  All the same content talked about earlier in this post just from a different name.  I dont't even know to call or not.  Sounds like a scam to me though.

I received this same "form" letter which is a SCAM!
I need a job like many other people on here and these
SCAMMERS are getting our hopes up and thinking we are
stupid to give them a credit report! I live in Michigan
and you can see from all the other emails about this phone number
they are working-SCAMMING people all over the USA.

The above is the actual Craigslist Ad and the response I received today.
I was dumb enough to call the cell phone number and I got their voicemail as well.  Looks like even people in Massachusetts can be fooled by a half decent ad.  If I had nothing better to do, I would crank call this guy till the cows come home!!!  Beware!!!

Thankful for other's posting their "issues" with replies like these, some ad's are legit on Craigslist, I've actually made contacts and had a couple local legit job interviews but it's these that are frustrating!!
Good luck to everyone out there looking!

I also responded to an ad on craigslist, in North Carolina for a driver wanted job.It seemed like a scam when i got this E-Mail back.
