Description
I posted my resume on the Career Builders job site for Data Entry jobs on 1/2/2024, I was contacted via text message by Mrs. Chloe Evans stating she was head of the recruiting department at the company (EnPro Industries), and that she was contacting me in regards to my resume that was sourced from career builders. She said, "I have been listed for an online interview session for a work-from-home job position of a Data Entry Specialist, and asked me to kindly reply back to the message with "YES I AM" to find out about the position, pay scale, and full details about the company. I replied back as asked, then I received another text three hours later from her that said, "NOTE: This is a full-time online work-from-home position whereby all duties are done remotely. It's 6-8 hours daily, 30 - 40 hours weekly with overtime available. Working hours are also flexible...The pay rate is $35 hourly, You will also be paid $28 hourly during the training session. Then she stated, she believed I didn't have a problem working from home. I replied, Correct, I have no problem working from home. I asked about the training, benefits, and the equipment required. She replied back an hour and a half later and said, "Training will be done and conducted online for a week with the company's supervisor and yes the company will also be making provision for working materials to get started. You will be given a glimpse of the amazing benefit package we offer during the course of the interview/job briefing. I replied, "Sounds good." Ten minutes later she sent a text saying, "The interview/job briefing will be conducted online via Microsoft Teams, there you would get to know more about the company and what the job entails, which would be an IM interactive question/answer session. You are required to get in touch with the hiring manager, Mr. Greg Willis now for more information about the job and company. and she asked if I had Microsoft Teams app to get started. I downloaded the Microsoft Teams app to my phone but did not sign into it because my intuition was telling me not to, so I uninstalled the app. I had been hacked by a Microsoft scam before, so I didn't trust it, then I started researching the company, and the names she provided me and the number she called from and could not find any info on them, and the hiring manager, and head of recruiting for EnPro was not matching their names, so I decided to check BBB. After finding out theirs a scam going on with this company's name. I decided not to respond back to Mrs Chloe Evan's last text.
