 Fake Job Scam Texts And Emails

Home  Navigating This Website  Contents  Bookmarks 
Website Dedication

Across the world, the job market is very bad.
If that were not bad enough, scammers are trying to take advantage of people's desperation.

This web page will address a job themed scam text that I received.
This page will present the scam text in 2 ways:

The goal of this web page is to spread awareness, not bring the scammer to justice.
I am not law enforcement.

Do Not Reply To Scam Texts

A given scam might be from:

If you receive a scam email or scam text, you may feel overcome with the need to reply, telling the recipient that you know that it is a scam.
Nothing useful can come from doing that.
The scammer already knows that he or she is a scammer.
All that replying does is alert the scammer to the fact that the scam text has been received.

The Scam Text As Text

Hello, this is Alyssa with Interactive Resources LLC.
I found an opening that seems well suited to you.
Would you like me to send the list of options? Reply "yes".

How Did "Alyssa" Get Your Number?

Often, the contact information for intended victims comes from data breaches.
However, there is nothing to suggest that the scam presented on this web page came from a data breach.
The scam's text is completely generic.
The scammer sent however many scams to however many phone numbers or ranges of phone numbers.

Conclusion

While I can tell you that this was a scam text, I cannot tell you with absolute certainty what the nature of the scam will be.
A reasonable guess might be:

  1. The victim will be offered a fake remote job,
  2. the victim will then be sent a fake check to setup a home office,
  3. the victim will be asked to make a payment to a vendor, who is really the scammer.

Again, to be absolutely clear, while I can tell you that that was a scam text, I CANNOT tell you with absolute certainty all the details of the scam.
