Description
I was reached out to via a random person on LinkedIn for a job I had applied to. They had said that the position had been filled, but to reach out to a contact at Caribbean Courier for a remote data analyst position. I had an "interview session" on Microsoft Teams with a Mr. Cabrera D. Martin, who then congratulated me and emailed some job forms. Everything looked legit down to the updated W-4. I was very close to sending my information before I decided to research the company more. The thing that made me the most skeptical was that I was being emailed from [email protected] while the website contact email was [email protected]. Futhermore, the person who had initially contacted me on LinkedIn's profile was completely gone. I decided to check the BBB website because the email had mentioned this "company" being BBB accredited as well as one of the winners of the 2019 Integrity Award. There is no info. This company doesn't exist. Please beware of other remote job scams like this. I almost gave out too much personal information that would have bit me in the behind!
