Who called from 7202958327

I received this text today, told me it was "Mr johnny" and asked if i was interested in being his personal assistant. i googled the area code and its from Colorado, i live in Canada....i received 3 of these texts within hours of posting my resume online.

I just got the same thing texted to me from like 5 different numbers.. And those buggers are persistent as hell! $400-500/ week to post on Craigslist?? crazyyyyyyyyy! I was playing along at first.. but I should have known from the jump that this was bs!

I just received a text after posting an ad on Craigslist from   1-321-428-8099
"My name is, Anderson   Got your advert posted on  Craigslist,Are you still looking for job? do get back to me Asap,Thanks
...I will be needing your service as a craigslist poster your task is posting of advert on craigslist and we are willing to pay $500 weekly get back to us if you are interested."

Being a new mom who recently had to quit my job, I wanted to really believe in this. So I heard him out and told myself that the moment he asks for money, back off.

Sure enough.

Post job offered ads on craigslist for general labor (cleaning vacant houses) in cities throughout the U.S. - To post a job offered ad, you have to pay the site $75. (Which they expected me to pay myself via credit card)

Should have realized it was too good to be true  once he said i could be paid via money gram.

The email he had me post to reply for the cleaning job was.   [email protected]

They have a new number 909-334-2360.  I posted a computer rack and craigslist and they asked me to e-mail them if I still had it at [email protected].  When I e-mailed them I got this response.
