Remotely Attempting To Ruin Your Life
Beware the hackers, Y'all!
If you apply for one position and you get an email saying that it's closed, but there's another position you would be perfect for, CALL THE COMPANY directly and ask to speak to the email sender or whomever they mention by name in the email.
The emails are usually in a very basic font (sans serif, etc.), may or may not have additional contact information, and tend to copy and paste the "about" section of the company's website.
I was lucky not to have given up any personal information that wasn't public knowledge, but I did turn down two other offers, thinking I had secured employment. The attachments I was sent to secure my position were on company letterhead.
However, one of them was another scam, and the letters, after comparison, were very similar minus the names and company information.
Some company somewhere is actually hiring for remote workers, but it sure wasn't either of them. When I returned to my 'applied' in the 'my jobs' section and attempted to return to them, the listings were also missing.
I'm so discouraged by the amount of lying, scamming, and hacking I've found since applying on LinkedIn and Indeed. My phone is on permanent 'do not disturb' with certain numbers allowed around the DND.
