Applied for a job on craiglist and got the same response as the last 15 (from Casmin - mine was from Parton Corp). Gets you excited doesn't it. I was not as smart of some of you. I opened up the test to see what it was - didn't take it though. I wonder what this is going to do to my computer.
This is a TOTAL SCAM. I just inquired about the location for this job on Craigslist. I did not send them my resume and this is what I got emailed to me. BEWARE!! Below I copied and pasted the email...

Be careful looking for a job on craigslist. I replied to quiet a few adds the other day and then today I had 3 to 4 of the same kind of email. They would ask me to give them the number of my credit score through this one website, which I did not click on. They then asked me to fill out an IQ test. When I clicked on the link to the IQ test, on the top right hand side it says that they will charge you for a service. I reported the messages to my email provider so that they can investigate it. Just be careful, and I would use other job search engine sites whenever possible.
I just received an email from a receptionist posting on Craigslist and had an email response right back say I needed to fill out a credit report first however the email name and contact name at the bottom didn't ad up and this page shows up when you google the number. From the looks of the comments below, it's clearly a scam.
