Type of a scam Employment
I had my resume posted on job search sites as I’m seeking employment. I was contacted by someone claiming to be from HR with Elite Worldwide Logistics about a high paying position in payment processing. The sent a job description and application, someone contacted me from the company number to explain the position, but this was not like a phone interview it was just a guy telling me about the position in which he explained a 10-day trial period in which I would use my own account until my company account was set up to process payments from their clients. When I questioned him about this he said my manager would be able to better explain and would work with me to ensure I knew the job. The man had a heavy accent, so I just told him to get this "manager" to contact me. I then received an email asking for my ID, and payroll deposit (bank account) info, which I did not provide. I had called the number they called from and sent a test email to their info email address, the phone number was not assigned and the email bounced back. I responded to the original email asking for a crossable phone number that I could speak with someone to ensure the company was a legitimate company, as I was not comfortable sending my personal info via email. The person responded with an email saying that I could not contact them as their lines are overloaded with candidates and connected to their customer service lines, she then asked if I was no longer interested in the position in which I responded "No"! Who would work for a company they cannot contact, I am not sure. Anyway so far I haven’t lost anything and they only have my resume information, but it did waste a lot of my time, so I’m slightly ticked off. Hopefully no one actually gives them their info and checks sites like these first, who knows what would have happened had they received my ID and banking info. Be careful people!
