Description

On January 1, 2025 (starting the new year attempting to scam lol), I received the following text message: Hello, my name is Maria, and I am a recruiter at FlexJobs. Your resume has been recommended by multiple online recruitment companies. As a result, we are offering you a great remote opportunity, either part-time or full-time. This job involves assisting merchants from companies in updating data, improving visibility, and boosting positive reviews. Free training will be provided. The working hours are flexible, ranging from 30 to 60 minutes depending on your schedule. If you choose to commit, you can earn $300 to $1,000 daily. The base salary is $1,500 for every 5 working days. (Note: You must be at least 18 years old.) There is a 5-day paid trial period. After the trial period, you can sign an employment contract with the company, which includes paid annual leave, maternity/paternity leave, and other statutory holidays. If you're interested in joining us, please contact us via WhatsApp at: +12179535703 I never respond to any of those things and I immediately blocked the email. I wanted to report because I know someone out there maybe in a vulnerable situation and I would hate for them to fall victim to this scam.
