Brea, Ca 92821
While at a job fair called Hire Live located in Orange County, I met a woman at the front of the Hotel where the fair was being held. She claimed to be working for a Marketing company hiring for middle management positions. Then she asked for my resume, that night the same lady named Mary Cacosa called and left a message on my voice mail stating, "My manager and I looked over your resume and we were impressed with your resume and your career accomplishments. We like to offer you a chance for an interview If you could call me back at 203-768-2229." I then checked the receipt of the message and a different number came up (714-924-3756).
The following day I returned her call she claimed to be working for a Marketing company called World Financial group and hiring for middle management positions. Again, her name is Mary Cacosa and she wanted me to return her call at 203-768-2229 originally she called from 714-924-3756. The address she gave me is 3350 E. Birch Street Suite 200 Brea, Ca 92821. The time that we set the interview time for next week--Monday the 17th at 1 p.m. I kept trying to ask more questions but the lady said to write any questions that I have and we'll go over them with you. She also wanted me to bring three references with me and to dress in appropriate business attire.
Thank you to all of you, for posting your past experiences with this cruel scheme targeting eager job seekers. For those of you who have not viewed the other postings both male and female cons have used different names and phone number's--this company is only interested in collecting $100 to supposably run a background check on you.
P.S. The job fair I attended is legit companies who are actually renting booths and interviewing candidates seeking management positions for reputable companies. The lady I met was not at a booth located inside the hotel--she was outside the building wearing a business suit and walked up to me as I was about to enter the hotel. When I had asked her for a business card she reply that she had already handed all of them out.

| 4. Written by This fry's my bacon on May 4, 2012 from los angeles, california, US I got a call from someone named Kathy @ 949-466-6405. She gave me the same line and set me up for an interview @ 3350 E. Birch St. Ste 200. I googled the number and it was for Finesse Salon "Hair by Kathy". This is a scam I know it, I just don't know how. Do they steal from you? Someone needs to report them. Where did they say they found your resume? |

| 9. Written by Danielle on February 22, 2012 from anaheim, california, US So glad that I researched this out and didn't waste my time! I got a call yesterday (Feb 21, 2012) at 5:20pm (which seemed late, but whatever) saying they had reviewed my resume online and wanted to invite me to interview at their company. I accepted and she suggested that we meet today (the 22nd) at 6:30pm, again that is oddly late. So today I took some time to look into it and its apparently just another scam out to get those of us seeking legitimate work. So ridiculous...  |
| 10. Written by bluewarner on February 11, 2012 from st. louis, missouri, US I received the same call and sales pitch yesterday from a lady named Janet (714) 588-2518, which led me to schedule an interview today at 9:45am. True or not, when you can insert a company’s address into Google and end up on this page. That in itself is all you need to know. I went from being flattered that I received the call to feeling relieved that I will not be wasting my time this morning.  |
