Got a call from this phone number today after I responded to a craigslist job ad. http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/ofc/3325160650.html
This person by the name of "miss kim" whose first language was definitely not english said i'll go in for an interview and i'll need to bring $100 for training. FIRST FLAG RAISED
Tried googling the company name stated on the ad and nothing came up. SECOND FLAG RAISED
Googled the address (244 west 38th street, between 7th and 8th avenue. 9th floor.) that "miss kim" provided after i requested her to email me the location for "training" after receiving her email which was under the name "robert banner" and some gmail email address "
[email protected]". The email also specifically stated to not reply back. No mentioning of "Brent Accounting and Associates LLC" appeared. THIRD FLAG RAISED
Googled phone number 646-998-3226 and came across this site and it just confirmed my initial feelings about this whole job post.
In case anyone else in the future comes across or gets contacted by this phone number, THIS IS A SCAM!!
