Scam Description

First initial contact was: “We came across your resume on a career site and feel your qualifications are a wonderful match for our part-time Quality Control Supervisor position. Then the response was, “ShipnShift LLC is pleased to offer you the role of Remote Quality Control Inspector. They said my application has been approved for a Remote Quality Inspector earning $3200 for the first month, and $800 a week each Friday after I sent out my first package. I was very skeptical because I have never been offered a job without any some form of formal interview. They sent a form to fill out and sign. I have not completed it because when I read the terms and conditions it doesn’t sound legit. I have a business background, and I know when a legal documents and contracts is legit or not because of the prints and tiny details involve in a contract. My mistake was I did not recognize in the beginning that it was a scam. The first red flag was they sent me a google form employment application and fill out my PII information in it, my first instinct was that was very untypical for an employer to use a google form for a job application. So, now they have my PII including my birthday and address.
