Radiant Marketing Solutions review: Scam - False Job Posting 18

Definitely a SCAM. Also on another web page if you Google Radiants and SCAM together. Luckily they got impatient with my information and wanted my SSN right away. I would not give it to them over the phone. Also, Robin should be a woman's name and HE called me in a thick accent claiming to be Robin when I tried to verify the second senders legitamacy.

I just received it this morning...I am in the St Paul MN area. Thanks for the info!

Got the EXACT same thing... however... I knew that this was a scam... it was regarding an ad I answered last week for an entirely different job... I saw an ad on Craigslist.org... I replied with only "where in NH is this position located"? See, I never did send my resume because I knew something wasn't right... since last week I have had about 15 or 16 e-mails from all sorts of different places... most reading "thank you for submitting your resume" or something to that effect... HA HA... never sent it so I ABSOLUTELY and definitively knew it was a scam... EVERYONE... PLEASE be careful... and how horribly awful to prey on people who are diligently and desperately trying to find work to feed their children in this nasty economy ? ! See below for full text... same thing as 'n728' and 'kcole' above... UGH !

In Columbus, Ohio and received the same email but with a different name. I've only been looking for a job for a few days and it seems to me that any email with a link that has nothing to do with the business is a scam. Email pasted below. Thanks for the all the posts to help us!

###, And I started to think this was legit. I live in Jacksonville, NC and got the same thing "ljj" got. This crap pisses me off royally. Message that I got from the scammer is below. Just an FYI, if the Name on the email doesnt match up with the person sending it, its most likely a scam. The from was a Jane Holdaway and the message was signed by a John McKenzie. If the names dont match, dont reply and dont fill out any info! Please spread the word about this to keep those people who are naive from getting scammed.

I just got one here in Stockton, Ca. Except they want me to download their interview form. I didn't feel it would be a good idea until I did some research first. I'm glad I did.

I live in Wilmington, NC and I've received both! This morning I received the same email from the same HR Manager "John McKenzie" as well as "Amy Johansson". I also rec'd this email:

"Dear Applicant,

"We have received your application for our administrative job offer here at Radiant Marketing Solutions. We want to inform you that we are now requiring all applicants to download a standard interview form located here in order to save time and setup schedule for your interview and ask basic questions to hasten the job application process.

We have created this system in order to weed out fake applicants and people who are not serious in our job offer. Kindly download the interview form here to begin your application process.

Thank you and have a great day!

Amy Johansson
Radiant Marketing Solutions Group."

I especially love this: "[In] order to WEED OUT FAKE APPLICANTS."

Another thing I did find interesting was that the link for the credit check routed me to "FCR.com" an imposter site mimicking "FreeCreditReport.com". Thank Goodness I didn't fill out my information!

What jerks.

Good luck to each of you with your job hunts!

Best,
Sara

I got the same e-mail- WHO CANE WE REPORT THIS TO?

I just recieved the samething here in SC. I'm so glad I research the company first.

Same thing happened to me here too in WI. thought it looked a little fishy!

I just got an identical email this morning, but I had no idea that it's a scam. I found the posting on Knoxville, Tennessee's Craigslist. I replied to the email requesting the credit check and said "go ahead, " thinking that it was legitimate.

Yikes! What's going to happen now?

Yup. I got it, too! It makes it hard to determine real offers from fake ones. Pretty much all offers are fake lately. :(

I am located in Oregon and received the exact same response. This is so frustrating for someone who is on the hunt for a new job.

I receives the same email:

Dear Applicant,

Thank you for your recent application to Radiant Marketing Solutions. As an additonal protocol, we would need you to fill up an interview form in order to be enlisted as one of our interviewees for the position at hand.

In order to be considered for our newly available job position, please fill out the standard interview form provided at “link”.
Upon receiving and reviewing your interview form, we will contact you within 48 hours regarding a possible face to face interview and future employment in our company.
Thank you and have a great day!

Amy Johansson
