Scanno Advertising
Attempted scam, caught!

After responding to an ad on one of the job boards, I got a call from Kristin Hadji who was very interested in having me come in for an interview. I did a web search on Scanno Advertising, but nothing came up other than a Facebook entry and their job board postings. For some reason it didn't seem right; red flags were going up in my head. I ran their phone number on an online reverse directory and the phone number came up as Kelly Advertising. I ran a search on Kelly Advertising and that is why I'm here.
This morning I got a call from Kristin confirming my appointment. I asked her if this was Kelly Advertising and she said, "Oh that was the business in here before... We need to get that changed" and then I asked if I was to return tomorrow she said, "Only if the interview goes well". I told her I found out about them and I will not be showing up.
I went to the City of Anaheim website to look up Scanno Advertising to see if they had a business license. They do, and one of the addresses they show is the address in Sherman Oaks that I found in other reports on these people. If it is any help, the following information is a cut and paste from the City of Anaheim website; it is public information:

I ran a Zabasearch on Adam Kuchyt and turned up relatives in Chatsworth and Woodland Hills, CA (near Sherman Oaks), but no Adam. Since he supposedly is a business owner, he should show up. This means that Adam Kuchyt may be a fake name.
