When something sounds too good to be true... Right.

Seems Career Builder should be more alert to scams. I also applied for a PT position with this outfit, although I had misgivings.

I was also given the "limousine/luxury car rental" assignment. This was followed by an assignment to track down an original mother-child statue made of mammoth tusk. A Russian-language website was given as contact information, although the gallery wasn't named, nor was there a street/city address on the site. The contact telephone number had a country code that was incorrect. There is no number 7 country code. The "info@" address seemed to indicate Moscow, Russia. Russia's country code is 8. I tried calling the given number with both country codes and got error messages.

As for the second assignment: an "original" piece of art work is copyrighted or protected by law. Asking if a duplicate can be made for a client sets off alarms. I would like to know what form this scam takes after one has "passed the approbation [sic] period". Likely, there's a request for banking information so that a payment of $1200 can be wired to the account.

Be on the lookout for scam "secret shopper" rip-offs, as well.
