Type of a scam Employment

I applied to DEM and they’re grossly twisting their job descriptions and duping people into applying. I applied to a Marketing and Sales Consulant position for them, and I got an interview. I read the job description and researched the site and it seemed legit. However when it came to the zoom call, the interviewer was 1) In his car, and 2) not on video as I was, he could see me but I couldn’t see him which was really shady. He spent a majority of the interview talking about himself and the company and told me after that he liked me and wanted me in for a second interview. He didn’t ask anything about my degree or experience. I told him that I needed to know the job description before making any moves, and he says “You know those people that sell phones at box box stores like Sams and Costco?” And I immediately knew why he didn’t want to answer the question. He intentionally mismarketed the position. I was immediately not interested and told him so, but he still pushed for a second interview. I told him I needed to talk to Tim and he still insisted. We hung up, and I immediately emailed his HR department canceling the interview and thanking them for their time. The day the interview was scheduled, I received a call, a text, and an email informing me that I missed the interview I canceled. My friend and I both had this experience so I know I’m not crazy, and I’m sure it’ll happen again.
