Victim Location 28532

Type of a scam Employment

I have been looking for a job and was contacted by a person named Marta Pauley who said she was from a company called Present Business. She said they found me through Indeed.com. This company is supposedly a third party representative for buyers and sellers. That they take care of the transactions between buyers and sellers. They offered me a part time position to be a transfer control clerk, working at home. I filled out the application they sent, requesting my name, address, phone number and 3 references. I was told it would take 1 business day to have the application reviewed and they would get back to me. During that day in between from when they initially contacted me, something in my gut told me to do MORE research on them. Their name came up on the scam advisor website. Present Business’s website said they are based out of Westminster London, and their "international" number was a number from California that when you call it, it just gives you a busy signal. This company also said they have been in business for just over 5 years. The scam advisor website said the pngage for their domain was only 17 days old and that it was made from Russia.

This morning I got another email from this supposed Marta lady asking for me to send her a copy of my Id/DL/Passport. Of which I did not send. In her emails, she would not put a phone number under her contact name. I could tell something was fishy. PLEASE for anyone who thinks they are going to get a good job deal from them, it is not a real business. I am glad that I did more research otherwise I would be screwed bc they would have had access to all my personal information.
