Morningstar Inc Impostor

Jodi – Jul 17, 2020

Victim Location 96797

Type of a scam Employment

A recruiter by the name of Jane Fitzgerald with Morningstar, Inc. sent a text message stating that she received my resume from an applicant tracking system from indeed. She said that my resume was reviewed by the company for the vital cloud based role of Payroll Manager at Morningstar, Inc. and I have been selected for an online interview. I interviewed via Wire application with a Sarah Abramczyk-Larkin the Director of Human Resources. After about 40 minutes of interviewing she said she was turning over her interview notes. She replied back with an offer and said that the company would supply me with an Apple Macbook Air and that the w4 form would be coming along with the working materials.

She did ask for personal information such as name, address, phone number, email address and date of birth. The one thing that I thought was odd is that she asked on question 11. What’s the name of the bank you do operate with to see if it tallies with the company’s official salary payment account. And also if I had an HP printer, scanner and copier.

I thought it was strange to receive an offer sight unseen.
