- Customer Service Issues
- Status:
- Unanswered
After applying to jobs regularly, I received an email from ****************************** saying that they're interested in hiring me for a Customer Service Representative position from the company Mako Consultants Inc. The company on Glassdoor advertises that they are from Texas, they are a door to door advertising company and they are mostly commission based. On Indeed the reviews are strictly from TX, proving there are no people working from home, However, he told me during my "interview" on google hangouts that I could work virtually anyway, but especially in my city of Charlotte as they're opening an office here. I would be making 23$ an hour, and he stated that they're hiring 16 people to work from home. After acceptance of the job, I needed to deposit a check into my bank account in order to pay for the materials for the job... Which is a textbook mobile deposit scam. The company website he gave me was **********************************, and its pretty bare bones. Theres no phone number listed on their website and the only one I've ever found was ************, and is disconnected. There are multiple reviews online calling this company a scam, however they are overshadowed by the alarming number of 5 star reviews, so much so it seems they are putting the reviews up themselves. Im not sure what resolution Im seeking from this other than simple verification if this company is indeed fraudulent or not. I obviously did not deposit the check, and I have full transcripts of the conversation if needed.
