Another job search scam

[simplydamon]

Read this article on a recent job search scam. The key points highlighting that this was a scam:

"Applicants were supposed to send in a tax document and a $95 processing fee that ostensibly paid for a "credit check" and for training costs."

Again, a legitimate job offer is not going to ask you for money upfront. Why would a company need your tax returns?

Another scam I recently came across on another jobsite was one by Top Star Mailshare. They were asking for £30 for a registration fee so I was a bit unsure about applying.

I contacted TipTopJob to let them know about this and they told me not to proceed. They took the company off straight away and since I have found loads of people talking about the company and the jobs they offer on the internet.

Here are just some I found: http://www.homeworking.com/discus/messages/17/181.html and http://www.blagger.com/db4/company_i...Mailshare.html.

So if anyone sees this company advertising anywhere just DO NOT apply for the job as you will be wasting your money. I cant believe how many people get caught out on these sorts of job scams!!!!!!!
