Ditto. Received a text from this number for a position I applied for on Craigslist. No one would send a text saying "call me" at an "888" number. They would just call....what a scam.
just got a text message and a phone call from the 18889070619 number and the guy said that he had to verify some information in completing the application that i had submitted..i agreed because i have been actively searching for a job but this was not a legitimate phone call because all of the information that he was asking me was on my resume that i submit with every application. asking phone numbers and addresses and i am completely not comfortable with that and i think that its a desgrace to abuse someones information who is honestly searching for a job in this manner. the guy said his name wa Al. thats all i could get out of him.
it has to be a scam, if you call back they may ask for you to submit a credit report or something. its really ashame that while there are so many people looking for real work, there are people running scams and trying to steal identities and such
