"Natalie Grace" using number +1 (715) 944-2826 contacted myself and 10 other individuals (random numbers, no association with one another) with job offer stating: "Hello, this is Natalie Grace from the Indeed hiring team. We have a perfect position for you --helping brands like Costco and Sam's Club increase product exposure. Flexible work: Approximately 1 hour per day-- anytime, anywhere. Daily wage: $200-600. Free training, 15-20 days paid annual leave, plus all statutory holidays. We currently have 50 open positions. If you are interested in joining us, please text +1 213 864 6114 fore more details. Note: You must be at least 25 years old and responsible." The nature of the contact tells me it is most likely a scam, especially when it was directed to multiple phone numbers in an unsolicited group chat. If it is legitimate, then boy does it sound to good to be true. Nobody has replied in the group chat, which is for the best. But this isn't the first time I've been contacted in this manner by someone identifying themselves as 'Natalie Grace', despite the fact I have never once in my life met a woman (or man) by that name. I would imagine they got my number as a result of a recent unemployment application and subsequent job searches with the intention of preying upon that information. Attached is a screenshot of the text message sent by the supposed scammer.
