New Employment Phishing Scam

1 pointsby RocknRollaalmost 14 years ago
Saw another post on HN talking about an employment scam. Since we're talking about employment scams, just a note to everyone. There is also another scam going around where the company runs a fake ad, the ad says they background check, and for you to be considered you must submit a background check with your resume. They ask you to go to anysitenamehere.com and get a copy of your background check. The so called background check site is just a phishing site set up by the people running the fake employment ads.<p>We're in the public records industry and have heard about this numerous times very recently. They even gotten bold enough to offer you a choice of several background check sites, all of which they control of course.
