The above can vary mentioned to Amazon and some other type of position, also the supposed salary.
Now, we disprove this scam that is becoming more and more common; first, let’s use a bit of common sense, large companies do not have direct contact through these channels with the people they are looking for as a specific profile, in a second moment remember, if in the previous days you applied for that specific vacancy, the answer is no; third, think if you provided your contact number to one of these specific companies, surely the answer would also be no.
Now I will explain to you how is the modus operandi of this recent scam, the primary contact route is by SMS, since one of your contacts or a friend of a friend used your number to send this chain, with this we know that he or she fell.
The SMS indicates a URL that redirects you to a WhatsApp chat with a supposed company, where by commenting that you are interested, you took the bait, they will ask you for personal data, in some cases they even request photographs of voter ID, proof of address and others, the reason for the application is to verify if you are the person and if you are suitable for the false position.
The supposed hiring company will be in charge of asking you for a lot of personal information, in some cases they also request deposits from Oxxo convenience stores, transfers and in some cases reduced via Western Union, to justify that they require paying for your credentialing and sending documents from the ” company” to your home, you have to pay them; here you should already know that it is a total scam and you will not work in these companies.
Taking advantage of criminals at times when people require work or simply extra income, added to ignorance and generating doubt, makes these scams successful and remain in force. The victims, when receiving such a contact, react differently, but the most usual ones fall into the question “what if it is real?”. With this, criminals managed to stay active, hence the need to encourage reading in this type of situation by a specialist.
Not everything remains in a simple scam message, in the same way there are variant cases where criminals begin to contact to extort money from the victim and other types of crimes, since they have all the information of the person provided first hand and I do not rule out that in some specific cases kidnappings occur.
