Scam Description

This company reached about a fulfillment assistant position through CareerBuilder. Their website looked legitimate and detailed, as did the job offer. However, once I got on the phone for the interview, the ACTUAL position they needed filled made no sense for a legitimate company to be asking for. They wanted me to receive packages to my home from FEDEX or UPS, inspect them, and then send them back out through fedex. It made no sense to me so I researched for a bit and found out about this common “reshipping” scam that would’ve had me act as their mule for illegally purchased or stolen merchandise. Hopefully you can shut down their operation and prevent anyone else from falling for their grift,
