I applied to a job posted on Craigslist and received the following email requesting i get my credit report to be considered for the job. This company does not come up in any google search.
***copy of email received***
I appreciate you e-mailing us. In case the posting was not clear, the responsibilities of this position are as follows: you will be answering the phone and taking messages whenever necessary, you will work on scheduling our company meetings, and errand running for the company for things such as purchasing supplies and making our bank deposits (you will always be provided with a company car). While you are running errands, you will also be given one of our company credit card(s) for all business purchases.
You are very qualified for this job position, more so than the other 24 people we received e-mails from. I want to find an available time to set up the next step with you. However, before I can set up a formal meeting, our company will require that you attain a recent(past 14-21 business days) credit report. We, at Lontigo LLC, started requiring this because our company had some bad incidents with prior employees taking advantage of access to a company credit card.
Both myself and the company heavily suggest it if you use http://freekeycreditscore.com to attain your report as they are giving the report at no cost to you(unlike other places). Lontigo has also discovered that their scores always report back the most factual and accurate information.
After you have submitted all necessary information, they will show your personal credit report. Then, you will e-mail me the reported credit score, a phone number we can reach you at, and your availability times to set up an interview.
We ask that you do not email me the complete credit report, as it will most likely have private information. In the chance that you currently have a less than desirable credit score, it will never prevent you from a position with us. I had a pretty low score whenever I started.
If you do not wish to complete a recent credit check, unfortunately Lontigo will require that I contact our second choice.
Honestly, I am hoping to get this position filled with a new friendly face and looking to your quick response.
Have a fantastic Monday,
