This really is a scam. My boyfriend is trying to find a work from home job and he came across their ad on Craigslist. No one ever personally responds to their e-mails, it's all automated and they never mention the name of their company in e-mails. Plus, no legitimate place of employment would EVER charge you money to work for them. It doesn't matter if it's just ten bucks. I hate these spam ads/phone numbers. It's so annoying. Get a life and get off your [***] and make a real living that doesn't have to do with trying to dupe people out of their hard-earned money.
I was contacted just today with this same pitch from someone named Gayle who said " Oh I thought it was a scam too but its not !" OK Anytime someone is trying to hire you for ANYTHING and they say "Oh, Its not a Scam" in the intro letter, ITS A SCAM. or at least a pyramid looking set-up and we will all read in a few months how the FBI came in and raided the deal.
Thanks again for the replys on this site.
In response to this idiotic message. It is a scam. This is the email I received below. As you see in the 2nd paragraph it explicitly says there are "No" up front fees. This email is very mis-leading and should not be taken into context. It's companies like this is as to why nobody can trust anyone in this world!
I would like to thank you for requesting information regarding the available Marketing rep position with Global Domain Internationals. After receiving your response, I would like to invite you to a group interview with GDI, but first I would like to briefly tell you about our Customer Service Representative position and what the job entails.
Our representatives make an average of $400 to $600 a week depending on if they are full time or part time. They set their own hours and GDI pays weekly. Your job will be simply responding to emails from people who are interested in our web services or applicants who are interested in working for GDI. There is no cold calling or sales required, and there are no up front fees to start working with GDI.
If this sounds like a job you may be interested in I would like to schedule you for a phone interview on December 8TH at 6PM or EST, (If you are not sure of your time zone, please let me know.) Please email me with "RSVP" the time you choose to interview in the subject line only. Once I receive your RSVP, you will receive information explaining how to call into the phone interview. So please check your email frequently and also check your spam folders. Interview information may come close to your time to interview. Once again if you are unsure of your time zone please email your phone number so I may do a search for you.
