Diane Farmer, HR Manager job opportunity scam/open position scam / credit card scam

I responded to a job opening on Craigslist for an Office Assistant. I received the following email in reply:

Hello,

Thank you for responding to us. So that the job responsibilities are clear, you will be answering the phone, scheduling meetings, and running company errands such as buying office supplies and making bank deposits, in a company car. When running errands you will be provided with a company credit card to make supply purchases, etc.

We have had some bad experiences with prior employees taking advantage of having access to a company credit card in the past, so before we can schedule an interview, we need you to get a credit check. We prefer you use http://yourcreditreportnow.net/free to obtain this information as they currently have a free trial. We have also found their reports most accurate. When you submit your information they will send you your credit score.

When you email me your credit score, we can schedule for an interview. Please do not email me your credit report, as this may have private information in it.
If you have a low credit score, that will not prevent you from having an interview with us, but it does show us that you are trustworthy and responsible since you completed it anyway.

Please send me your schedule with availability for an interview along with your credit score. I am looking forward to your response.

Sincerely,

Diane Farmer
HR Manager
Williams and Harrington LLP

*This is a scam*

This company does not exist anywhere on the internet. When you try to reply to the email it bounces back to your spam folder. This is an attempt to get your credit card information by directing you to a "free" credit report trial. I found the email address used in the exact same scam in New York. (Tribeca)
