I was contacted through email regarding an interview through Microsoft Teams from someone named Jany Ross, and was instructed to email a gentleman named Chris Cameron to set it up. It smelled fishy from the very beginning because it all seemed too good to be true. I did my research on the company, and it is in fact a real estate management investment firm based out of Sydney Australia. I even looked up the CEO and researched the college he went to. Everything about the company name itself was 100% true. The people reaching out to job seekers, however, are not. They are using a legit company name as a front for their scamming operation. The entire interview was through Teams Chat, and I asked 3 times throughout the conversation if I could speak to someone over the phone or FaceTime, and my question was dodged every time. I was told they would be sending me a check to pay for my equipment, and when I questioned how they knew exactly how much all the equipment would be, they dodged that question too. The person kept asking me for my address and the name of my bank which I refused to give him until I actually spoke to someone. I was told they needed the name of my bank to see if it aligned with their bank for registration purposes. I told him that if I didn't elect to receive direct deposit for my paychecks, they didn't need to align. I also questioned how they were going to obtain my personal information or how I was supposed to fill out a W2 for tax purposes if I couldn't actually speak to someone. Inquiry dodged yet again. Also, the hourly wage for what the position was made absolutely no sense. No company is going to pay $35 an hour for a remote data entry position. The benefits they were offering were insane as well. Above and beyond, over the top, only in a dream world type benefits. I was finally fed up and sent him a screen shot of a Google search I did regarding an interviewer conducting an interview through Microsoft Teams Chat. The search verified that no reputable employer would ever conduct an interview that way with zero possibility to see or speak to someone over the phone. These people are good at this yes, but if you pay attention it is very easy to spot a scam. No reputable company would ever send you a check to purchase equipment, ask for the name of your bank over a text chat or dodge every concern you have throughout the interview. Too good to be true is real, so just trust your gut. After I sent the screen shot of the Google search I did, the chat went dead silent. I left the chat open for 50 minutes and he never typed another word. Needless to say, I did a screen shot of the entire "interview" from beginning to end, just in case.

I received an email from an Olivia Peterson. The email address was Olivia Peterson [email protected]. I received this on June 10, 2026 at 10:38 AM. This email was addressed to my ex-husband of 25 years. His name is ******* ****** ****. This email included 17 other emails. My ex-husband posted a review on a Facebook page called Orange tractor talks. It was a negative review and included that this was a scam. Her letter states that she has all of his family information, including SSN, DOB, full names, BG, CR, addresses and emails. She said she will give my ex-husband five hours to remove his comment or she will release all this information to the dark web. She said she will burn my house down and burn my car. I do understand that people can get access to where individuals live and possibly their date of birth. But this also included my Social Security number, which is very odd and not funny. At approximately 3:15 PM on June 10, 2026, I received a second email stating that all of my personal information will be distributed to the dark web forums and that my house will be burned down and my car will be burned. I find it hard to believe that this Olivia Peterson, who deals with Peterson heavy equipment would be able to have access to my SSN number. It makes me wonder if my ex-husband was involved with this Olivia Peterson, or still is involved. I did go to the police department with this email. They said there was nothing that they can do on my behalf. if there’s something that the BBB or other authorities who read this can do something it would be greatly appreciated.

I purchased a car 1970 Chevelle SS online with Cal's Collectibles in Idaho for 29,000. Email address https://calscollectibles.com.

Cal's Collectibles told me my vehicle would be transported on either late Wednesday 06/10/2026 or early the next day at 8:00 AM. At 11:30 the car still hadn’t arrived, so I reached Cal's for an ETA. I never heard back from anyone. Cal's Collectibles is a real company, but this website is not affiliated with them in any way. I then contacted the real owner Cal Percy at 208-785-6624.

I am reporting a trademark scam targeting my recent USPTO trademark application for "Two Chicks Jerky." I received an unsolicited text message from someone claiming to be "Jordan Karl" at the USPTO, referencing my actual trademark application name and a fake serial/appointment number. The scammer instructed me to call a Virginia phone number, where I was told I needed to add a new class to my application and pay $700 through an "ID Protection Office attorney." I was then directed to call another individual, "Jerry Stevens," at a toll-free number. Multiple calls from other suspicious numbers followed. The scammers had detailed knowledge of my application, which they likely obtained from the public USPTO database. I did not pay any money and recognized this as a scam.

Phishing - HP Official support - Impostor

I was looking for a site to find the download for my printer. It said it was downloading then said the download was failed. First, I was offered a live chat was offered to diagnose the problem claiming it was unsuccessful. Next, they asked for my phone number so I could talk to a technician. Then, they asked for my computer access to scan and diagnose the problem. Unfortunately, I fell for the worst trick of all when they said they would call me back when they were done running the test on my computer. I watched my computer and waited for the call. Last step was a call with a very rude telemarketer with a room of other telemarketers talking in the background. I continued to give him the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, he only became more unprofessional, He kept saying "do you see this". He said I was not paying attention because of the background of the TV. He kept saying I need your attention even though I responded every time he said do you see this. Finally, he ends the call with " give me $200 dollars " and hangs up. I call back the number he called me from and he still was rude and said that I was the one that he just talked to and I need to give $200 because it is not a free service. I told him that he never identified himself or the organization. I do not know exactly what it is for and he literally hung up on me. I asked him if that was to remove the 2 trojans, he said I had. I told him I just put anti-virus ware on our new computer. He said it was for viruses. and just to find someone else. Long story short, it felt like a scam in the end. The sites seemed professional. The lady I spoke to initially was very friendly and seemed professional. However, the supposed technician that I was directed to that called at the end of this ridiculous waste of time was nothing more than a telemarketer from another country. and if HP is part of this; I am completely disappointed.and they should re-evaluate whom and how they are trying to help their customers. However, I do believe this was a scam. I truly think the company gives the customer a failed set up message to reel the customer in. I believed they were or would help me only to gain access to my computer and add trojans or disfunction to my computer. I do hope that this organization is carefully looked at. If this is possibly legit, they are the worst and most deceiving, unkind, unprofessional, and most unhelpful organization that I have ever made contact with. I am now a little hesitant about HP, as well. .
