BBB June 2022 Hot Topics

1. BBB has received multiple reports of job recruiter scams. Some scammers claim to represent legitimate companies. Avoid “recruiters” who ask you to download an app to do an interview and be wary of any interview where a job is offered instantly or where the recruiter asks for personal and bank account information upfront. Also, research the company first and check their website to see if they are actually hiring.
2. BBB continues to receive reports on Navis Worldwide, a scam company that advertises work-from-home package inspector jobs. This is a reshipping scam. Reshipping scams masquerade as work-from-home opportunities that involve the job applicant receiving, inspecting, and shipping out packages from their home address.
3. Consumers have reported receiving text messages that Indiana Workforce has sent them funds. The text messages contain a link, which has the potential to contain malware. Don’t click on it!
4. Consumers continue to report scam phone calls claiming to represent Amazon Customer Service. Amazon will not call you to verify charges to your account. If you receive a suspicious call, text, or message claiming to be from Amazon, go directly to com to check the status of your account and to contact their customer support directly.
5. Consumers are receiving text messages promoting advance fee loans, and scammers are asking consumers to purchase gift cards from stores like Walgreens and Walmart in order to receive the loans. Do not agree to pay money or gift cards up front in order to receive a loan or grant; this is a scam and you will not receive any money in return.
6. A local consumer was offered a car wrap job opportunity. The consumer was advised they would receive a check in order to pay for their vehicle to be wrapped. This is a fake check scam. BBB is not aware of any legitimate job offers that send checks to applicants and ask them to send money to a third party.
7. A local consumer fell prey to a moving scamand lost several thousands of dollars in checks and possessions after hiring movers on Craigslist. Before hiring movers, research moving companies first on org. Get everything in writing, and keep an up-to-date inventory of your belongings.
8. BBB warns of scammers offering too-good-to-be-true deals on dental equipmentlike retainers and veneers. Research companies before you buy, pay with a credit card in case you need to dispute a charge, and avoid deals that seem too good to be true.
9. BBB warns of scammers hacking Facebook accountsand sending messages claiming the recipient is on a list of people who are owed workers’ compensation. The messages provide a name and number of an agent. If you receive a similar message, delete it (and notify your friend their Facebook account may have been hacked!).
10. BBB warns of online shopping scamsrelated to the national baby formula shortage. Before buying formula online, check org for the company’s rating, use a credit card, and be especially cautious of ads on social media.
