Additional Information for DLJ Trading

BBB received an inquiry through Scam Tracker reports about an employment offer from DLJ Trading  on June 18, 2021. The consumer wrote that they received an unsolicited email with a job offer. The consumer  noticed that the compensation was too good to be true and the hiring process was too easy and decided to report to BBB’s Scam Tracker.

BBB also reached out to the business with letters on July 12, 2021 and July 23, 2021 to confirm details about their business location, competency licence and hiring process. BBB also contacted the City of Vancouver on August 24, 2021 to verify if there is a business licence connected to the company’s listed address. However, the City does not have any records for this address. 

As of August 24, 2021, BBB has not received a response from DLJ Trading. The website for the company, https://dljtrading.com/ is still active.

BBB is recommending the following tips to jobseekers who receive unsolicited communication about a job offer from an unknown company:

• Always be wary of work-from-home or secret shopper positions, or any job with a generic title such as caregiver, administrative assistant, or customer service rep. Scammers are notorious for using positions that don't require special training or licensing to attract potential applicants.
• You may be an excellent candidate for the job, but beware of offers made without an interview. A real company will want to talk to a candidate before hiring. 
• Don't fall for an overpayment scam. No legitimate job would ever overpay an employee and ask for money to be wired elsewhere.
