Even More Craigs List Job Scam

Hello

I would like to say thank you for contacting us concerning the job opportunity we've posted on line. 

I have Great News. The position your interested in is still open, and we are in the middle of processing applications. Currently we have 2 other applications along with yours that we are considering, so you can consider yourself on the short list to be hired. 

Please help us to express-process your application by performing one of the two mandatory steps that the company must take for all new employees. Since we run both background and credit reports on all employees, you can help us by obtaining your own current credit report, speeding up the process immensely. We have found it's best if you have it in advance to make sure there are no surprises on it. 

Both myself and the company would prefer that you use This Company to acquire your credit history because they're offering the check at zero cost to you (unlike other places) and their results contain the most precise details I've come across, but feel free to use any service that suits you. 

Once you submit all of the needed information, they are going to show your own personal report. Please print it out and save it for the meeting. Please do not e-mail me the report, since it will have personal content. We can go over it when we meet in person. Should you have a lower than expected credit ratings, it will never prevent you from gaining a position with us. 

When your finished please e-mail me back at (job-w54r65@hotmail.com) with the subject "My Availability" to let us know you obtained a current copy of your credit history along with your availability and we will arrange an interview. 

I'm looking forward to your quick response. 
Warm regards,
Jada B | HR Dept.

Legitimate sites don't mask the links. Legitimate job offers don't have you pull your own credit reports. Legitimate interviewers do the background checks and credit reports AFTER a job offer has been made (how can they do a background check when they don't have 90% of the information they need to do one?)

This person is simply running traffic to Credit ID Protect by posting false job openings on Craigs List and making people think they WILL get a job if they sign up for the free trial (free trial yes but it's $14.99 a month if you forget to cancel which is what the company and the scammer are counting on--so many people forget to cancel free trials!)

Credit ID Protect does have an affiliate program. The affiliate who is doing this is lowlife scum for taking advantage of people who simply need a job.

Another person/company that should be ashamed of themselves for taking advantage of the unemployed, but scammers don't have any conscience.

I should get a finders fee from Craigs List for finding all the scams ROFLMAO!!

The posting was for a front desk coordinator in downtown Bend (Oregon). The link above leads to free gift center--not any kind of a feedback form.

This company (My Media Solutions) is fraudulently using Craigs List to get people to complete offers and to drive traffic to said offers.

They are taking advantage of people who are looking for jobs.

This is even more disgusting than the idiot here:
http://suellenjillroley.blogspot.com/2011/02/craigs-list-scammers-fake-job-postings.html  because his email /job offer/scam was so totally unbelievable that even a 2 year old could see through it.  This one is believable right down to the time you click the link.

My Media Solutions should be ashamed of themselves. But I doubt they are, scammers have no consciences and that is all this company is!!

The second email sounds legitimate too doesn't it? However, the link goes straight to Job.com.  Funnily enough there are NO listings  on Job.com for Watson Realty nor are there any listings even in Bend, Oregon.

We Paid Not Responding to Contacts or Running Ads

Back in October 2010 I requested to redeem for ads. That request is still sitting in my user information but there have been no ads requested or run. 

I have requested that the redemption be reversed TWICE now with no replies from Grace. 

I would be 5 cents from payout if Grace would reverse the redemption request.  I've been waiting (not patiently) for 5 1/2 months now, I think thats long enough

The Games People Play.......

My mother is a total piece of work.

I realize she learned how to play mind games from her mother (my grandmother) but that doesn't mean that being on receiving end is any more pleasant than it was when it came from my grandmother.

Yesterday I asked her to pay one month's space rent and my electricity bill.

She agreed to do so and asked me to call Neighbor Impact today to find out what type of eviction notice they would need (30 day or 72 hour). I was supposed to call her at 3:00 pm today to give her the information.

She calls me at 1:00 pm today with numbers to call here in Bend to get help and informs me that she will not be sending the check she promised me yesterday. She just 'can't afford it' and 'you will be in the same hole next month so why should I bother pouring my money down a rathole'

She whines all the time about how broke she is.  She has investments, she has money coming in every single month, and even if she has to dip into her investments every month to pay her medication bills she has those resources.

Its offensive and insensitive for her to whine about being broke to someone who is nearly 6 months behind on her space rent and facing an eviction notice.

Its offensive and insensitive for her to whine about being broke to someone who is 2 years behind on her property taxes and has a lien against her house.

Its offensive and insensitive for her to whine about being broke to someone who has been selling her belongings since October 2009 to pay her monthly bills.

She's also mad at me because she can't get me to freak out about this situation.

My opinion about freaking out is that it uses a lot of energy and doesn't change the situation at all; after the freak out is over the situation is just the same and all the energy expended on the freak out could have been used to change the situation.

This is not the first time that my mother has gotten mad at me for not showing the level of emotional upset she expects.

Todays lovely situation was just improved immeasurably by my mother being really condescending....telling me how many days are left in February....and when I got angry (I said I do know how to count) she said I spent my morning and my money making these phone calls (turns out she made ONE phone call--to the sheriffs office)....the least you could do is be polite in return.

Excuse me???????? You throw me on a emotional roller coaster and get all condescending and expect me to be POLITE?  Give it a rest!

I suppose I should be happy she didn't give the sheriff's department my phone numbers like she did here:

But right now I am just thinking my mother is sadistic and manipulative and the queen of the mind game players!

I Am Very Angry...........

Back in January I sold a few pieces of glassware on Craigs List to someone.

After the actual sale this person emailed me offering to buy me food or to pay someone to clean my house.

He said he was a Christian and "felt called to help me."

I said no to the food but said yes to the housecleaning--which has not happened.  I doubt that it will either.

I guess he also felt 'called' to call Senior and Disabled Services about me.

He thought he was being smart I guess by calling anonymously, but given the fact that my friends, family, and the people I know in the mobile home park I live in would not do this.............I know who did it.

A man from the Adult Protective Service department of Seniors and People with Disabilities showed up at my door with no warning.

I am neither senior nor disabled, but for me that is not the point.

The point is that this person had no right to assume anything about my life and he had no right whatsoever to call anyone about how I may or may not be living.

My feeling is that this man assumed that I am a hoarder (in my opinion all the television programs about hoarding are making it very difficult for those of us who are just slobs).

I grew up in a house that was clean only when my grandmother came to visit. Both sets of grandparents, my father, and my stepmother were packrats. I am an only child, and an only grandchild on one side, so I inherited a lot of stuff.

Then there's the fact that in the last six years I have had more losses in my life than I care to think about.

In October 2005 I lost my car, my apartment, and my job within a week of each other.

In November 2005 I lost my uncle.

In December 2005 I lost my grandmother and a cousin that I was very close to.

In November 2006 I lost my 12 year old cat

In December 2007 I lost my father. I lived with him -- I found him dead on his bed -- I had to deal with almost all of the aspects of his death by myself.

In January 2008 I lost another cousin who was also my godmother.  I didn't find out about her death until November 2008

People who haven't lost family members probably think that grief is a short-term thing that you just "get over" in a real short time........thats so much bullshit!!

I still miss my stepmother-who I wasn't even that close to--and she's been gone 8 years.

I live in the same house that my father and I shared for 2 years before his death.

Many of the things I have been trying to sell belonged to my maternal grandmother, stepmother, father, and paternal grandparents.

In addition, I was in the hospital for 3 days last summer.  I had told mr-interfere-in-my-life that I had been in the hospital but I didn't tell him why.

I had pulmonary emboli (blood clots in my lungs) and was damn lucky to be alive.

Cleaning was pretty much NOT on the priority list for 2-3 months after I got out of the hospital, and that is MY business not his.

I cannot believe the nerve of this man, I won't even call him an acquaintance.

Priorities: (PTR is NOT Important!!@@@@@!!!!)

I just received a personal administrative message about a site where my upgrade expired; the special ptp at this site is only available to upgraded members which is fine.

What is NOT fine with me was the tone of this personal administrative message.

And furthermore, at this point in my life I could really give a you-know-what less about changing out ads for any site, for any reason, even if I lose accounts over it.  PTR IS NOT IMPORTANT!!

1) I am unemployed. The unemployment ran out in April 2010 and I have not been eligible for ANY of the extensions since that point.

2) I have no money coming in other than the tiny bit I earn online or by trying to sell nearly everything I own on Craigs List or by selling stuff to local antique/secondhand stores.

The money from PTR/surveys/offer sites/craigs list/ebay/antique dealers/secondhand stores/etc goes for 'unimportant' 'luxury' items like food, toilet paper, cat food, cat litter, cleaning supplies, gas for my truck, cell phone bill, landline bill, dish network bill (still have 7 months left on that 2 year contract), heating bill.

http://www.suzys-braintransplant.com/sales/sales.htm  I have nearly 200 active listings on Craigs List.

3) Currently I have less than 0 money as my checking account is around $2.00 overdrawn

4) My computer monitor died a month ago, it will cost at least $75.00 to fix or $150.00 to replace.  Currently I am using an old small monitor from another computer

5) I had to replace the glass door on the woodstove last month--this was not optional, it had three cracks and a hole in it; that repair was $90.00

6) I am two years behind on property taxes, thats $1200.00+ that I do not have

7) I am nearly 5 months behind on space rent, that is another $1850.00 that I do not have. In another month I will get a 30 day eviction notice unless I can pay at least one month space rent or get some sort of help paying it.

8) Because I was supposed to start a job nearly a month ago that was an hour commute each way, I let the firewood run out and turned on the furnace. How I am going to pay the electricity bill is beyond me but I can't let the water pipes freeze either.  The place that helped me with wood last year now says it will be WEEKS before they even send out an application.

9) The clothes dryer died a few months ago. So I have to hang everything to dry.  That really adds to the ambiance around here

4) The alternator on my truck went south for the winter 2 days ago.

Today I get to walk to WalMart to pick up my prescription for blood thinners (Warfarin). It is nearly 3 miles each way from my house to WalMart and the high temperature today is supposed to be 55 degrees with a 30% chance of rain, and wind at 9 MPH. Does that sound like fun to you???????

Monday I get to walk to Lazer Quik to get an application for rental assistance printed out. They are 1 1/2 miles each way. But its cheaper to go there than to buy ink for my printer even if I had the money.

Changing out ads for any site is so low on my priority list that I think it fell off the priority list completely. And I bet if the person who wrote that admin message was in the same boat I am she wouldn't give a rats ass about PTR either!!
