I answered an ad on craigslist for a job. They contacted me and wanted me to set up an yahoo im account so that I could interview online with [email protected]. They sent me "tasks" to complete and after I completed a couple they sent me one that had me baffled. I told her I was unable to complete the task. She assured me that it was okay. Which reafirmed the suspicion I had from the beginning. Then she said I would be getting a text message with a code from craigslist and I am supposed to give her the code. I received the code for someone else and under the code said plainly "do not share this code for any reason. Any request for it is a scam". I wouldn't give her the code and once again she said that was okay.By this time I am even more suspicious. I called Reliance Healthcare and spoke to a very nice man who confirmed that yes indeed, this is a scam. He took all the information and is turning it over to the Attorney General.
Beware these scammer are getting more clever and deceitful everyday!!!
