Who called from 6507625607

Yeah... this crap sucks when your looking for a job... thankfully my cell phone is set up to not accept any of these premium services...

I got the same email from the supposed same company from two different people....

I haven't sent my resume to any Craigslist job postings in several months due to the spam. Today out of the blue I get a "reply" which I immediately suspected was a fake offer.  Check out the phone number first and what do you know? I landed here!  They said it was for Casmin Corp. and listed 650-762-5607 as the contact number, [email protected] as the contact email and (866)-442-3582 as the fax number.  My email from them also included a link and requested that I click on the link to take the IQ test and then submit the results to HR right away.  No way I was clicking on anything when I don't know the source. Word of advice for everyone new to online job seeking - no legitimate company is going to ask you to click a link, pre-fill info on their web site or take an IQ, personality or job compatibility test through a link in an email.  If you submit a resume via email, good "real" companies will generally have a generic "thank you we have received your resume and are reviewing your qualifications" reply and then if they are serious about wanting to get more info from you - they will call.

What is the contact info for the FBI unit you contacted? I'm getting e-mails and would like to put a stop to this. It's so unfair they are praying on desperate people and I would really like to see them pay for it.

I have been at the same job since March and have not been applying to jobs.  So I was surprised when I received an email yesterday from "Casmin Corp" that was definitely the same scam you all are talking about. This is the email:
Hello [my name], it's fantastic to speak with you.


Thank you for e-mailing us.

Honestly, I am wanting to get this position filled with a new friendly face and am looking to your quick response.

Though a website did come up when I typed in the URL given, I got no results when I Googled "Casmin Corp" so obviously the website is a fake, designed to make you think it's a legit company.  The address given for "Casmin Corp" in Baltimore does not exist either.  Be warned!

Yeah, I had applied to jobs a couple months ago and just received an email back from CasminCorp. I decided to click on the IQ test link. I answered the questions but when it asked me for my cell phone number I knew something was up so I didn't give it. I then noticed I had received two emails stating slightly different things. That was when I decided I would google them to see if they were a scam of not.
