So my friend is lookin for a new job and he's been hitting craigslist pretty hard. Lazy mans way of jobsearchin lol. Anyways he got a response and asked me to look at it, check this out and let me know what you guys think.


Thank you so much for your interest in our opening.

I appreciate you contacting us. In case our posting was not clear, a few of the responsibilities of this position are as follows:

: You will be answering the phone and taking messages when applicable
: You will be scheduling the company meetings
: Running errands for the organization for things for example purchasing supplies and making bank deposits.
: You'll be provided with a firm vehicle.
: Whilst you are running errands, you'll also be given one of our firm credit card(s) for all company purchases.

You seem quite qualified for the position, and additional so than the other 16 applicants we received resumes from. I would like to take the next step with you. Even so, just before I am able to schedule a formal meeting, my company will call for that you acquire a recent (past 1-2 business days) credit report. We started this due to the fact our company had some bad incidents with prior employees taking advantage of having access to a company credit card.

Both myself along with the provider will prefer it that you use this (was a credit report site link here but i removed it lol) to acquire your check as they are offering the check at zero cost to you (unlike other locations). We also discovered that their scores constantly reported back contain the most accurate data, but feel free of charge to use any service you like.

Once you submit all of the required data, they will show your personal report. Please print it out and save it for your records. Please do not email me the entire report, as it'll have private content. We can discuss it when we meet in individual. When you have a lower than expected credit score, it'll never prevent you from a position with us. I had a fairly low score when I started.

Once your finished please e-mail me your phone number that you can be simply reached, and your availability to arrange an interview.

Personally, I am hoping to fill this position with a new friendly face and am searching forward to your quick response.

Kind Regards,
Lisa Snow
I.S.I.S Capital - H.R. Dept.


Now there is a link for the credit report they want, so i'm not sure whats up, i told him to use a different more reliable credit report thing, like freecreditreport.com or some shit and submit it like that and see what happens.

Post the Link. This may or may not be a scam. Pretty tricky refering you to a "third party" credit reporting agancy. Fairly sure the information you post will be used for ID theft or you are going to have to pay money for the report or they will nag you to join something.


The grammer alone lends me to believe that this is a scam. New for sure I have not seen this before.

Could be legit, but I doubt it.

It's probably someone trying to make a buck through the affiliate program of the credit site. Seems like most of the crap on craigslist is scams these days. Scams or spam.

By ordering your free credit score, you will begin a 7-day free trial of 3-bureau credit monitoring and credit score tracking
7 day free trial LOLOLOL. It's a scam to get you to sign up for the service.
Ya, soon as i seen credit report link i knew somethin was up, just thought i'd share with everyone just incase anyone else got somethin like this

Definitely a scam. I used to work in the financial industry. They can/will pull your credit anytime they please, but only once you have been hired. If they ask for it before they provide you with a contract, turn away, and never look back.

what gave it away to me is that it says your resume was better than everyone elses. a legit person hiring someone wouldnt say that. theyd just say they liked your application or whatever
