Type of a scam Employment
My niece’s boyfriend responded to a Craigslist job post from a company that identifies itself as Prisbrey Harvesting LLC. I could find no reference to this company online save for 2 ads on 2 different jobsites. This is the posting:
"20 workers needed for Prisbrey Harvesting, LLC. workers will be paid $1.90+ per 90 lb tub, but will be guaranteed $15.19 per hour, job location is in Las Vegas, Nevada, this job opportunity is temporary, 36 hours per week guaranteeing at least "3/4" of the time offered, free housing is provided to workers who cannot reasonably return to their permanent residence at the end of the work day, transportation and subsistence expenses to the work site will be provided by the employer upon completion of the 50% of the work contract, tools, equipment and supplies will be provided at no cost "
The ad says the job is in Las Vegas. They responded to her boyfriend through email then stating the job is ACTUALLY in UTAH and That they will pick him up on some random street (westcliff) in less than three days! None of the ads mention anything about UTAH. He doesn’t know their names or business location. They only communicated through emails and pay for expenses. He sent a copy of his ID and Guard card and asked for his bank account number!! Subsequently he went to get a "prepaid" card. He is intent on pursuing this job its obviously a scam.
