I received a call from a man, who claimed his name was John Custoza, said he saw my resume on craigslist.org and was looking to hire a replacement for his Secretary. He stated that he was a Criminal Defense Attorney, he took over his uncles firm three years ago. He said that his Secretary's husband decided to take a job offer in Florida and that he needed to fill her position immediatley. He said that this was his first time ever setting up an interview to fill her position. It was quite obvious that he was not professional about setting up interviews. He stated that he worked alone in his office with his Secretary. He then went on to say that he didn't have time for a personal life, that he worked over 65 hours a week and that his Secretary usually took care of his personal needs at the office and referred to oral sex and that her replacement would have to perform those types of duties. I was astounded and in disbelief from what I heard and asked him to repeat it and that my cellphone must've been breaking up. He repeated it again and still I was in disbelief and asked him again to repeat what he said. He then acted as if his phone was breaking up and the phone then was disconnected.
Noticing that his number was from out of my area, I did a search on it and noticed 8 pages of the same sort of activity. I called my local police dept. and was visited by a police officer to file a report. My main concern is that this man is foolish enough to attempt to put me in danger. I am blessed to have a huge family and many ways to defend myself from this creep. I also have friends in the local police dept. that will locate him and put an end to this foolishness. From a previous post, it looks like he even attempted to "abduct" someone. Hopefully, we will soon catch up to this creep and put this to an end.
My message is the one above- i just wanted to add something...
BE EXTRA CAREFUL OF THIS PSYCHO!!!
When i talked to him he didn't mention the whole " oral sex" thing at all... not once... so my guess is that he no longer cares if the person is consenting or not- he just wants to find someone to do whatever his sick mind conjures up to... im really freaked out- the guy was nice...asked for references and seemed to know what he was talking about concerning being a lawyer ect...
he's changing his scam...making it worse than it already was... im just afraid that the next person he tries to scam will end up be the first (prb not) in a long line a bodies...im calling the fbi this morning
Almost the EXACT thing happened to me in January!! wtf? like whaaaat's the point? if he doesn't actually have a job available, why bother contacting people!? lol.. #loser

he contacted via email...says he has work for me...found my resume on cl but i didnt list a phone number...called the police..still havent talked to him other than email ....working on catching this guy..any more info you can offer would help
I got a call from this number and a man offered me a job working as a secretary for him. He said he was a lawyer and that he could pay me $100 cash per day to work for him and do more than just answer phones. He wanted to know how long my husband is out of town for and when I told him that I had recieved calls offering jobs requiring services I won't perform, he hung up on me. Do I report this to someone? Can the cops do anything?
