Scam information

This content is based on victim and potential victim accounts. Government agencies and legitimate business names and phone numbers are often used by scam artists to take advantage of people.

Description

Received the following text, unsolicited, following applying for other jobs on indeed. No listing on indeed comes up for this company. The website obviously is secure based on the url, but looks very generic and suspect. The "names and photos" of "hr manager, cpo, and ceo' are on the website with official looking icons for their linked in profiles etc but the icon doesnt click through to anything just reloads the existing page with their very generic web page copy on it. I researched these things outside of the text and didnt interact with the links inside the actual message at all due to the fact this info was shared here and someone else said they behaved in further suspicious ways, mentioning crypto and cashier's checks and confirming a scam with the check issuing bank. I copied and pasted the text content below to add my more limited red flag experience to the pile even though nothing beyond the initial text transpired in my case as i didnt interact with the message due to what i found here.
