This same clown called me thanks to this site I know now its b***s***

The same here. I received a message from this number as well. Scam. This is what you get if you apply on craigslist. What a waste of time!

I apply for a deli position, and I receive the text message from gigats, to call them at 855-233-8081 then I google that #  and yes I think is a scam, who can help us with this situation, like this other people  I also need a job, and is not fear for us, that we apply for jobs and we pray to get and answer and   This person play us without any consideration. We are honest people looking  for an opportunity  to bring food to the table for our families, please some agency do something, this need to stop. STOP PLAYING WITH US!!!!

Received a text about the assistant.  Thought I wold look up the number and am glad I did.  I have been unemployed for 2 months and was ready to grasp the job.

Got a text from same number. I did a number look up and no information for the number came up.

Recieved a text message about a job that I applied for, is this legit because I really need a job

I had put out some job aps.   QUESTION: ... When in applying for jobs you have to confirm your interest in the job by text message, is that not why you flled out the application?

855-233-8081  Why did they not leave you a voice message?



Answer:



Area code 855 is a non-geographic area code, meaning that it is not associated with any particular city, state, province, or country. Area code 855 is toll-free numbers, joining the list of 800, 888, 877, and 866 toll-free numbers. Area codes 844, 833, and 822 are reserved for future toll-free numbers.

Note that you may still pay for airtime to call a toll-free number from your cellphone.

I got the same call from that 855 number about an aircraft mechanic job I applied for.  I texted back who it was but never got a reply.  Glad I found this information.

I received a text earlier this morning from this number. They stated it was in regard to the receptionist position I had applied for. I have never received a text regarding a job before and suspected it was a scam... I didn't text back or call them.

got a call from some dude named will s. gigats.com

got the msg to call the 855 number so I chked out on bing found everything to be like I thought a
scam of sorts.. did not call

I received a text from this number regarding an Administrative Support position I supposedly applied to.  I texted them back as they requested as to who they were; What company they were with and what state they were in.  I have not heard back from them.

Thank you for the info and advice- Good to know someone is out there looking after us all.

Gigats is bogus!!!

I got a message from that same name but i never been on that site though

Received a text for a job opening. Not sure who may have sent but it looks like I'm not alone.

I received a text at 7:30 am about a retail manager position i had applied for. I have applied to so very many locations but, this company did not include the business name. I have never heard of any employer to send a text rather then call you for an interview....I did not respond except to stop, which was a mistake because I am receiving even more texts. The text was from Gigats...watch out for this scam..!!!

I received a called also, and he had my name and phone number, I am concern...  because when I ask him where he calling from? his english got bed, and "he said from the Leasing position that I applied for" them I star to listen to him, But in the same time he want me to go back to school in 3 to 6 months , I ask him... you called me to offer me a job? or to sale me some education? he answer both.  I told him I have a BA, 3 credencials and for a $13hr job, I have more that enought education and I hang up.

Any call or text from 855-233-8081 is NOT LEGITIMATE. Do not answer the text except to text STOP. Do not answer any calls. Do not call this number if they text you asking you to call.  Further, when you text STOP to the number, you will receive another text that says "text STOP". Do not re-text STOP. It is a phishing scam and you will get more texts and/or calls.
Any legitimate business will call you for a phone interview - everything and anything else is a SCAM. Don't go there.

i just received a text regarding a customer service rep position I applied for,  I have sent so many resume out,
I'm not sure if this is legit or not, Is it?

I received a message from this number, it said it was from gigats- a job search website, I am not going to return the call because of what I have read here.

They Txt me ask some questions for a position that I did applied online, but it sounds so suspicius, all that questioning? I stop him and requestioned more info about their company he just Hang on me.

Same as above, this is an scam!!! Check the link below

I don't know of any "company" or even a "placement service" that would send a text message to anyone before they hire someone. Talk about unprofessional!!

If your cell phone number is on your resume and you posted it online chances are that's where they got your number. I wouldn't text or call them back at all. sounds like a phishing scam just to use your number or sell your information to others and sooner or later you're going to get hundreds of texts from people you don't even know.

i also receives a text asking to call for a baggage handler position. I did apply for a poistion online. Should I call or not??

I received a text for an administrative assistant job and to call them.  They had my name and number.  I have been sending out resume's so I did text back and I have not heard back from them. Who has this number?

I received a text message to call that number regarding an office manager job I applied for - it seems strange that a company would send a text message about a job and ask for you to call them back, rather than call a job seeker to speak to them directly about the position.

Hmmm me too the exact same text.. hmmmmmm

I got the same thing. I didn't call it

The text message asked me to call the number regarding an office manager job I applied for.  I don't know what this is about nor do I care.
