I received a text from this number saying the same stuff that I just read above; being offered $25.7/hr to work from home, the guys name was Derek Moore. I was asked to send $160.23 for some sort of computer software that would be shipped to me. I made the mistake of not doing my research first. Thankfully, I was able to cancel the money transfer and get my money back. Please, anyone reading this don't fall for these scammers [***]. I hope you do your research beforehand.
After posting an ad on kijiji looking for a job (in Vancouver, Canada by the way) I received an identical text message only they claimed to be from Unicare Healthcare and the supposed 'hiring manager' is a Mrs Ann Powell. I asked the same question too, inquiring about their website and head office location, and received the same answer that it will be provided after the interview on yahoo messenger. I immediately suspected a scam and after doing a little web search, I found that Unicare's head office is in New Brunswick Canada and the number texting me is in New York USA. Definitely a scam. I am smart enough to know that when someone offers me a high paying job that I am not even qualified for, that it's obviously not legit.
Answered an ad I placed by texting me that they had a job with unicare healthcare and wanted me to set up Yahoo messenger and wouldn't give me any info about the company.
Check. Check. and Check again. Everything you guys have said was the same for me. I just absolutely reemed "Ann Powell" out on yahoo messenger and "she" immediately went offline. It's definitely a scam!!!!!
Got a text from a 347 541 6594 number and got up early to deal with this [***]. Not too impressed as I stupidly believed I could get this job. Thankfully they got nothing out of me. Except an hour and a half [***] interview!
