Employment - Nets International Imposter Employment Fake Check Phishing and Identity Theft Scam

I was emailed the opportunity to apply to a remote job. I went through the interview and was offered a position with a list of required equipment. The recruiter was professional until they asked me to print off a check and deposit it to buy the items on the required work list. It didn't sit well and when I messaged them about feeling uncomfortable things got weird. They had a copy of my drivers license and knew where I bank but didn't have account numbers and no one asked for me to send money anywhere. I did a little research on the company and the jobs were posted on Indeed and it looked legit until that happened. As soon as I asked for the phone number to reach out to HR they stopped communitication.

Debt Collections

I received a voicemail from a company identifying itself as “RDR Processing” regarding an alleged complaint with reference number 967-553. The caller stated that they attempted to deliver documents to my “verified residence” and threatened that they would attempt to contact me at my place of employment if they could not reach me. The voicemail did not identify the nature of the complaint, the name of the filing party, any court involved, or provide any verifiable case information. The caller instructed me to contact an 866 number immediately to prevent further action. I believe this communication may be misleading because the caller provided vague information, created urgency, and used threats of delivery to my home or workplace without providing legitimate details about the alleged complaint. Additionally, the caller used a name that is not mine. I am requesting that BBB investigate this company’s practices and determine whether they are using deceptive collection or notification tactics.

I reached out the day I got the item for a return label and refund due to it not being what I ordered. The customer service rep offered me 20% off to keep the item. I declined and told her no and asked for return instructions. She came back with 40% refund offer which I declined and asked for return instructions. She now is back to the 20% refund and wont give me the instructions to return. THIS IS A JOKE.

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare

Checking flight status due to East Coast severe thunder storms. The Logan Airport web page had a flag stating “Flexible Travel Policy in effect”. Upon opening on this flag there was information about the policy and phone numbers. I called the phone # and was connected to an agent. I asked what is the procedure should my Alaska airline flight be delayed or cancelled. After being placed on hold he returned to tell me the flight had been cancelled & would check for alternative Alaska flights. Upon further discussion he claimed all Alaska flights were cancelled but he could book me on a United airline flight. He informed me the total booking cost plus taxes and fees to be $1498.60 USD. He then stated that I might see a split charge but total will be the same. He sent the following email: Should you find all to be in order & as per your requirement please reply to confirm as “All Ok & I Authorize” I agreed as requested, Alaska airline flight was cancelled and new United airline tickets issued. It was until the following day that I discovered that the agent charged me $760.20 in addition to the actual cost for the United flight. He had been very deceptive about the reason for the split fee. The lesson: Deal directly with the airline agent/ website only. Be aware of what ticket should actually cost. Question split charges to re ticket a flight

He asked to verify the last four of my social security number which i declined. This person did not ask for my last name nor disclose my last name. I asked what this was about and he claims there is an outstanding balance for credit card from 2011 and if not paid there will be a civil matter filed against me. I asked what the credit it was for and can they send me information via mail because i don't have anything outstanding. He refused and try to convince me to settle on the balance and make payment today., i refused and said without any proof of what this is i believe this to not be mine. He used rude remarks and told me to just to pay my bills. I advised him that he is threatening me with a lawsuit and that is against the law in my states without putting this into action.

The email is from "Erik Anthony" at "[email protected]", with the subject "Regarding Your Background and a Potential Opening". The description is vague, there's no reason someone working at a fairly major transportation company would be using a Gmail address for this contact, the language is stilted in a way that seems very recognizable to folks who know email scam tactics (e.g., the closing of "Best regards, [full name]"). I don't think this has anything to do with Duvanant, per se, but it's worth reporting so other people who get similar emails might come across this warning.

Retail Business - B & H Road Service

Just want to let people know to beware that if a person comes with extra tar or sealant for a driveway and says they have some left from a job and will just charge you x amount for how many yards they use - get the proposal and contract up front. All my paper work was done after the fact and I paid much more than how they had explained it as I am sure they intended. It is my fault, but people need to be careful because the copy of the proposal and contract I was given after the fact said I agreed to a flat rate that was basically $4,000.00 more than the materials because as they said, "labor" and then I would hope they will pay taxes to Washington state. So it's my fault and I don't want any repercussions, but want this to serve as a reminder to people to be careful and not stupid like me, even though this person was rather intimidating and wanted to make sure no one was going to make complaints and wanted proof that the check I wrote was good, as they didn't want me to be in trouble for writing a bad check
