i responded to a craigs list gen mgr restaurant position. within minutes i rece'd a callback from a private number. after going through a lot of formal detail (none about the job)he wanted me to pay paul hollis in orlando florida through western union. it was to be used for a ticket to san diego for an interview the following day. i was to meet lisa rosewood who was the hiring mgr. it seemed very strange and he didn't want to answer any questions. he also said i was getting an overnight package from leisure connection corp in the uk. i looked pauls name up- thankfully, and didn't make the transaction!
