Ms Larson,
No company I have worked for in the past 20+ years has ever asked such a thing. I have researched your 'company' online and found some very interesting things listed under 'scammers' and 'fraud' and 'phishing'. I will be sending this on to the New York State Attorney General's office for review and response, as well as the Better Buisness Bureau. This kind of thing... considering you are targeting those looking for work... is foolish. Those seeking work do not normally have 'good enough' credit scores for you to highjack their identities for your own purposes. For you to think they do is an indication you must not be bright enough to get an honest job yourself.

| Disgusted with some people 2010-03-09 18:29:03 Unknown |
I'm glad I was doing my homework before going any further after receiving the credit report email, an email to go to Dream Media Marketing Professional Hiring, www.job.com, http://QualityReviewers.com and an email to go to http://www.career-updates.org. All five of these emails were from one inquiry about an Admin Support (Ashtabula) position on Craigslist. I'm so disappointed that there are such ugly people in the world trying to take advantage of people when they are obviously disadvantaged if they are unemployed and seeking employment. All five emails I've included just so you can watch out for them.....although when you start getting numerous responses for one job inquiry it becomes pretty easy to spot!!

Medical Receptionist (just filled)

There is a standard process of setting up interviews for the large amounts of applicants, which is the service at http://www.career-updates.org. It is the trusted job indexing site, which is used to match applicants with available jobs.
Fill out the information form (form that starts on 2nd page after you enter job type and location on top right side) and apply to the job of your choice on the result page. All of the available jobs will show on the results page. Your information is entered into the database, and may be scheduled for an interview after applying to that specific job.
Ok. So proceed to http://www.career-updates.org . Start here and bare with me while I sort through all the applicants. Thanks!
If you are no longer interested, just send me an email me back and I will update this, and take you off the list. Thanks again.

Identity Thieves Prowling for Job Seekers
Fake job ads up 345% as recession creates opportunities for scam artists
http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2009/03/job_scams.html
March 9, 2009
With the unemployment rate rising and living costs going up, more people are looking for new jobs or second jobs. These are ideal conditions, it turns out, if youâ??re an identity thief.
Job seekers will register with employment agencies, check employment ads, mail out unsolicited resumes, network, post resumes on job search sites and search Craigslist.
In fact, the UK Association for Payment Clearing Services which tracks the prevalence of fake job ads said that fake ads are up 345 percent over the past three years. Unfortunately identity thieves are taking advantage of these uncertain economic times to scam job seekers and gather personal identifying information.
The Identity Theft Resource Center offers these tips:
? Protect your Social Security Number by limiting how many people see it. Never put your SSN on a resume. Let a company ask for it when they consider you a serious applicant. To minimize your risk, you also may want to not list your home address and just put your city and state on the resume.
? Consider opening a separate email account for your job search and keeping your primary email address private. Placing your email address on a resume could open the door to spam and phishing, account verification, and other email scams. (The recent Monster.com breach exposed resumes and email addresses. If you had placed your Social Security number or home email address on your resume, you could have made yourself a target.)
? Check out a company you found on a website carefully before giving them your information, for example Craigâ??s List. Anyone can create a website, but it doesnâ??t mean that they are a real company. You can find information on a company through the Better Business Bureau or the State Attorney General where the company is located. You can also Google the business to find out more about them. Most reputable companies will have a significant presence on the Internet, not just a few mentions.
? Avoid any website that requires you to â??pre-registerâ? with your SSN, home address or driverâ??s license number. Also, you should not be required to prepay to view job listings. Both these requirements are strong indicators of a scam.
? Update your computer security prior to emailing resumes and receiving email correspondence. Making sure your computer security is currently updated against viruses, Trojans, and other types of computer malware can help to protect you from any intrusion in an attachment you might receive.
? Make sure the person who contacted you actually works at the listed company and is not someone who has posted a job pretending to be part of a company. Does the URL address include the name of the company? If not, who actually sent it? Call the company involved, and ask for the Human Resources Department. Some companies recommend not responding via email to any person asking for more information, but rather to call the company directly. Rarely does a company hire someone sight unseen.
? Be wary of some common job scams. Avoid any company, especially a foreign company that wants to hire you as a â??payment representative â??orâ? accounts receivable clerk.â? This scam indicates that you get to keep a percentage of all checks or money orders you place in a bank account for them. Do not open a bank account for a company. You will be the responsible party should any money laundering occur, or if checks bounce. This is called a â??money mule scam.â?
Another scam is to notify you that you are one of the finalists for a job, and they need your Social Security number to do a background check. If you have not had a face-to-face interview with the company, you should be very skeptical. No one gets a job based on a resume alone.
Finally, watch out for the â??work-at homeâ? scams, especially those that ask you to â??forwardâ? packages you receive to a third party. That package may contain stolen goods or illegal drugs. There is rarely need to have a private party as a â??freight forwarder.â?
The safest ways to job search are to use local want ads, visit the unemployment office, use temp employment services, tell friends and family about your search, and network via professional groups and business acquaintances. When contacting a local company you can meet them, see the facilities, and ask acquaintances in that industry about their reputation. Consider not contacting foreign companies, especially those from Nigeria, Russia and third world countries.
Should you decide to use the Internet, ITRC strongly recommends that you read the safety tips on job seeking websites and report any suspicious posting to the website concerned.

Florida Probes Eight Firms For Alleged Employment Scams
Suspected of exploiting desperate job-seekers
February 17, 2010
The ads make it sound easy; let the advertised firm train and place you in a new job, or set you up in a work-at-home business that will triple your income. It hardly ever works out that way, however.
Now, the State of Florida has issued subpoenas to eight firms suspected of running employment or work-at-home scams.
"Unemployed Floridians are particularly vulnerable to scams that falsely promise quick fixes for people who are jobless," said Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum. "With the unemployment rate in Florida at record highs, we need to be vigilant in our efforts against people looking to capitalize on someone else's difficulties."
One of the firms receiving a subpoena is Career Services International, based in Orlando. McCollum's office is investigating allegations that the company misrepresents available services and collects fees for those services, but fails to provide them. Consumers have complained that the quality of service was not what the company had promised and indicated problems with missed deadlines, untrained employees, and lack of advertised expertise.
Federal-State Crackdown
The subpoena is one of a series issued over the past several months targeting employment scams and was announced today to highlight the office's joint enforcement effort with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)and several other states. Seven other Florida companies have also received subpoenas investigating potential violations of Florida's Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act. Allegations include misleading or deceptive marketing of work-from-home opportunities as well as job placement services and other Internet business ventures.
The other firms under investigation include:
? Coretech Media LLC, doing business as Netcadetpro.com and Net Money Training, located in St. Petersburg; Investigation of unfair and deceptive trade practices related to home business opportunity kits advertised over the internet
? Darling Angel Pin Creations, Inc., located in Brandon; Investigation of unfair and deceptive trade practices involving work at home job opportunity
? GC Displays, Inc., doing business as Atlanticpacificonline.com, located in Clearwater; Investigation of unfair and deceptive trade practices involving job placement services
? Home Biz Ventures, LLC, doing business as Bidfuel.com and Blogtoolkit.com, located in Clearwater; Investigation of unfair and deceptive trade practices involving internet business opportunity which offers on-line membership access to training and products to sell on auction sites
? My Career Corp., Inc., located in Tampa; Investigation of unfair and deceptive trade practices involving job placement services
? Pacific Webworks, Inc., located in Salt Lake City, Utah; Investigation of unfair and deceptive trade practices involving work from home opportunities
? Viable Marketing Corp., located in Seminole; Unauthorized recurring charges associated with negative option "work at home" internet business opportunity
McCollum says consumers should be wary of any company offering employment positions that require little or no education but claim to pay high wages, companies that charge an up-front fee for their services or products, companies that offer "memberships" to internet-based employment opportunities, and any other opportunity that sounds too good to be true.

FTC Cracks Down on Jobs Con Artists
Scams prey on Americans left jobless by the recession
By James Limbach
ConsumerAffairs.com
February 18, 2010
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has launched a new crackdown on con artists who are preying on unemployed Americans.
The fraudsters utilize job-placement and work-at-home scams, promoting empty promises that they can help people get jobs in the federal government, as movie extras, or as mystery shoppers; or make money working from their homes stuffing envelopes or assembling ornaments.
As part of the law enforcement sweep, dubbed "Operation Bottom Dollar," the FTC has filed seven cases against the operators of deceptive and illegal job and moneymaking scams. In addition, the sweep includes 43 criminal actions by the Department of Justice, many involving the substantial assistance of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.
The agency also announced partnerships with the online job placement service Monster.com, the search engine Bing and the centralized network of online communities Craigslist to help job seekers recognize job scams so they can avoid being victimized. Monster, Careerbuilder, Bing and Craigslist will display FTC consumer education material to people who are using the companies' Web sites to look for jobs.
"Federal and state law enforcement officials will not tolerate those who take advantage of consumers in times of economic misfortune," said David C. Vladeck, Director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection. "If you falsely advertise that you will connect people with jobs or with opportunities for them to make money working from home, we will shut you down. We will give your assets to the people you scammed, and, when it's appropriate, we'll refer you to criminal authorities for prosecution."
To help consumers avoid being conned by employment scams, the FTC has produced a new consumer education video in English and Spanish.

I also received the same e-mail. Anytime someone ask you for a credit history be aware. I have never had a potential employer ask for anything confidential before an in person interview. Your credit report is as personal as it gets. Anything anyone wants to know about you is there. just wanted to ad my 2 cents, about this scam. I removed my name and contact info for my privicy.

This was my email for a job of a shipping clerk. I did same as above and checked out the website and has nothing to do with shipping. It could be very unlikely. Thank you all.

Asking for credit information
| rcfranklin 2010-02-20 18:48:49 Unknown |
This is definitely a scam!
| Ash 2010-02-19 17:14:21 Unknown |
I inquired into a job posting from this corporation as well. Doesn't seem that they answered any of my questions in the post, so I became suspicious immediately. If you aren't already familiar with the company name, google it up. Look into it.
I just clicked 'report spam' after finding this information.

I am so disapointed. Makes you feel good when you finally hear back from someone and then you get this crap. I am also glad I found this before going any further with the credit check.
| Renee Michelle 2010-02-17 20:09:51 Unknown |
Glad I googled "ERG Corporation Scam" and saw these postings! I, like others, looked at the website and thought it was suspicious. I responded to a craigslist Property Manager posting and the website was obviously not one of a property management company.
| losing faith in humanity 2010-02-13 22:33:09 Unknown |
Please Post where I can report this scam. i alresdy reported it to craigs list, but this is a crime and they should be punished. i didn't get a call, but i did apply to an ad on craigs list. same number and samantha davis and elizabeth moore. The website is advertising a job in chatham. the website is ergcorporation.com
Thank you for your posts. I almost gave them my credit history....the funny thing is they were asking for me to run a free credit report and give them the transaction number so they could view it. The transaction number works for 30 days...........well i ran my credit report more than 30 days ago for myself. so i emailed back saying the transaction number had expired.
I have had a previous employer run a credit check. That employer was reputable. So It didn't raise any red flags that this comany was looking for that.

My boyfriend got the exact same email as "legitimate job seeker." He doesn't remember applying for a job with this company, but he was searching jobs on Craig's List. I told him he needs to report it to Craig's List. I looked up the company website and it's full of bologna. It doesn't "say" anything real. It's just a bunch of words made to look legit.
| Ligitimate Job seeker 2010-02-10 21:33:03 Unknown |
Same thing for me today. This is the 2nd response like this I have gotten in the last month applying to jobs in Humboldt county on Craigslist. It is sad that someone is out there trying to rip off honest people looking for a job.

Thanks for the heads up. I received an e-mail regarding this same company, fron the same Samantha Davis. I did not click on the link as it instructed, as it just didn't feel right. Also, I didn't remember sending a resume to the company, and didn't have a record of sending one either. I have been searching craigslist, but I'm not sure how they got my e-mail address. Anyway, hopefully this will help someone else avoid this scammer.
| Onthelookout 2010-02-02 18:28:57 Unknown |
Did not receive a call, but saw 2 job ads on Craig's list. I responded with questions of the name of the company and its locaton. On both ads, the same response identified the company as ERG Corporation with a contact name (Samantha Davis), without an address, but the phone number (888) 249-9197, ext 1 was listed. Website on her contact info is ergcorporation.com -- tried, unable to access. As with "Richard", the "routine background check", including submitting your credit report, is required before the interview. Glad I read your comments before acting on this. Having two different company names is suspicious.
