Employment - atsreadyresume

I was contacted by Laura Henry via email and LinkedIn stating she was conducting a retained search for a VP position in my field. Based on her brief description of the role it did seem like it would be a fit with my experience. I did a search on LinkedIn for her and a detailed, and well built out profile came up in which we had several shared contacts so I thought she was legitimate. I asked for more detail, she said it was a confidential search and she couldn't share additional information at this time. Which is plausible, for many retained searches. I sent my resume as requested and received this reply: "Your experience is aligned with the role, but your resume is not ATS-friendly. Kindly adapt your resume to be ATS-friendly as I need it asap. For creating an ATS friendly resume, please visit https://atsreadyresumes.com/ and send me your ats resume once the recommended website has completed it. For now, precise details about the role and our client are under wraps due to confidentiality protocols. Once we align our schedules, I’ll shed more light on this. I’ll review my calendar and circle back with potential timelines for our continued discussion. Regards, Laura Henry" I didn't really read the full email just that I needed to update my resume to be more ATS friendly - which should have been my first clue - because if she is the executive recruiter why would my resume need to go through an ATS? I did update my resume then clicked the link as I thought it was just going to show me an example - but it was a resume generator which required a $17.00 fee for an editable resume. Thankfully I didn't pay for the service but I am alarmed by the sophistication of this scam and concerned that there a many many people who may have paid since the fee seems so minimal and there are so many people looking for positions. Looking for a job is a full-time job made even more difficult by scams like this. This is an alarming trend and truly the big tech companies - like Microsoft who owns LinkedIn should do more to protect its paying users. They charge an excessive amount to companies ($20K - $200K annually) and individuals (sometimes thousands of dollars annually) to use their platforms and the scams are as prevalent as found on free social media sites like Facebook or Craigslist.

Online Purchase - Bestbestones

I ordered a shirt and M-65 Field Jacket from Bestbestones via an advertisement received on Facebook. I received a confirmation email on 10/25/2025 containing a customer service email address and tracking number. Several days later I attempted to track the items and to contact customer service using the addresses on the confirmation email only to be advised they were invalid. I then contacted my credit card company and advised I wanted to cancel the order and that my attempts to contact the vendor were not successful. They credited my account. Several days later the items ordered were received. They did not fit and the M-65 Field Jacket was more like a shirt than a jacket. I went to the Bestbestones webpage and reviewed their return policy and used the customer service address as shown on the webpage and requested information on the return address. CSR responded promptly and advised they would not provide a return address until I photographed the items, the packaging received, and the size labels on each item. This requirement was not set forth in their published return policy. I refused to provide photos because I considered this a breach of contract and outside their printed return policy, but I did confirm that their photos in their order confirmation email was accurate and reflected the condition the items were in and that I would be willing to return the items at my cost once I received a return address for the return. I advised them that after 5 days if they failed to provide a return address I would destroy the items received. As of this date and time I still have not received a return address. I have attached a copy of their return policy which they elected to amend after the contract was made.

Online Purchase - Laura Geller Imposter Website - Online Retailer Scam

I was going to look at makeup online from Laura Geller. I did a google search for the site. I clicked on this site thinking it was the right one. It looked totally lagit, just like the actual Laura Geller website . Only the prices were really low. Anyway, I went through the checkout process, but the credit card payment would not go through. They asked me to enter a six digit verification code that was to be sent to my email. The email didn’t come until a couple hours later. By this time I had figured out that it was a scam. They were trying to access my Apple wallet account. I canceled my credit card right away since they had all my personal information and cc number. I do not have an Apple wallet account.
