Type of a scam Employment
I answered a post on my community facebook page that said that there was a data entry position available. The person that posted it told me sent her my email address so that her friend could reach out to me through the Hangouts app. I sent her my email address and contacted her through the app. She asked for an interview through the app, I answered all questions and then she asked me to wait for 5-10 minutes so that my conversation could be forwarded to the head dept. She came back to the conversation and sent me this message-
Congratulations!The good news is,you have just been confirmed qualified for this position.You are now offered the job position.You are hired!You are welcome to(CONVERGYS).You are now given a chance to show your commitment, charisma, diligence and be a productive employee.Your salary will be paid $15 per hour.Remember all assignment will be giving to you online and all assignment will be carry out online as well.I need you to provide me with the following: Your full name, current Home address, Phone numbers, and e-mail address follow with your photo ID( Front Profile Picture of you holding a government issued ID next to your face)to enable my secretary enlist them into the Company’s Register for proper documentation.
I asked how to send the information and she told me to send it through the conversation we were having. Didn’t seem right. I asked for some paperwork to be sent to me to show that I was legally being hired by a legitimate company and she told me that I had to finish up all of the processes first. I told her that I was not comfortable doing that and she said okay. I asked for a phone number to call and she told me that she had a very tight schedule and since I didn’t seem to have full trust in the company so I needed to look elsewhere.
