Alert
BBB received several Scam Tracker reports about an employment offer from Seahurst Logistics on April 22, 2021 and two on April 27, 2021. The consumers alleged that they received an unsolicited email with a job offer.They never applied for this company for employment. The business asked direct deposit information after a brief interview. The employer sent the questions for the candidate to answer. The company said that during the 14 day probationary period, the new employees would be required to make payments to companies but they would not have access to their corporate bank accounts until after their probationary period. The candidates decided to report to BBB’s Scam Tracker.
BBB also reached out to the business with letters on April 22 and May 7, 2021 to confirm details about their business location and hiring process. BBB also contacted the City of Delta on May 21, 2021 to verify if there is a business licence connected to the company’s listed address. However, the City does not have any records for this address.
As of May 21, 2021, BBB has not received a response from Seahurst Logistics. The website for the company, https://seahurstlogistics.ca/index.html is now not working.
BBB is recommending the following tips to jobseekers who receive unsolicited communication about a job offer from an unknown company:
- Always be wary of work-from-home or secret shopper positions, or any job with a generic title such as caregiver, administrative assistant, or customer service rep. Scammers are notorious for using positions that don't require special training or licensing to attract potential applicants.
- You may be an excellent candidate for the job, but beware of offers made without an interview. A real company will want to talk to a candidate before hiring.
- Don't fall for an overpayment scam. No legitimate job would ever overpay an employee and ask for money to be wired elsewhere.
