Contacting me about employment, no phone calls just text. A few days earlier, responded to a job posting, received a text from another number in California area 661-379-0571 that they will be sending me first week wages an will be arriving in michigan (where I'm located) in mid may.
The caller congratulates you on your job application - the one you posted in Craigslist or some other job application site - being accepted. Sometimes they ask for a fee. Sometimes they will send you a check as an "advance payment". All you have to do is reply, and send them a lot of personal information. Now the bad part: the scammer can use that personal information to steal your identity. Any "fee" you send will soon disappear. The check they might have sent will bounce. There are several variations to this scam.
