Thanks!

Anyway, confirmed the second job offer was pretty much full scam. Site claims 200+ employees.. and hundred of contacts and clients.

Then...

The hilarity..

1) Site was created last month.
2) Site owner was registered on a post office in a tiny town near Seattle.
3) Using a well known pro white supremacist ownership domain vendor :|
4) All information of the "company" is private.
I don't understand the point of these scam companies offering jobs....what do they get out of it? You don't have to pay to apply for the job, right? So how does that get them anything to pretend to be hiring?

Ugh, no way....schoolbread is disgusting! I'll take a troll horn any day!!

I'm sure Cesar has more insight into this, but my guess is that they probably try to get people's personal information from perhaps phony, online application forms -- and then sell it. Again, just a guess. There may be other associated scams they run as well.

@ajrwdwgirl , have you (or anyone else here) been watching The Bachelor this season? I think it's losing some of its more interesting aspects, due to all of them being quarantined in a resort property, versus in the past when they could go travel around the country, and world. (I liked the Bachelorette last season a bit more than The Bachelor this season, even though that show was also quarantined.)

Also, due to the closed location, I think the show's creative team is struggling to keep things interesting; so they're purposely trying to stir things up among the female contestants, which I think is lame. (There's always drama every season, but this season seems a bit more contrived.) I'm half wondering if we may be seeing a slow demise of the series.

However -- There will be a new Bachelor spin-off with senior citizens "looking for love" -- series to be called the "Golden Years" and they are casting now. (Show was put on hold last year.)

we have been watching both Bachelor and Bachelorette. I agree there are some interesting aspects with the show in quarantine but there is too much girl drama. The bachelor seems like a nice guy but is a little too reserved and a tad boring . That is interesting that they might do a senior edition of the show.

They get money.

Their goal is to "offer you a job". But you have to "pay the equipment or software".
The alternate is to send you a well crafted empty cheque and then they ask you to send a small part of the cheque value to a third party account with your money.
So by the time the cheque gets bounced. You already lost money depositing the "part of the cheque", You get hit by the bounced cheque fees, and you might get investigated in money laundering while the scammer laughs.

I’ll fill you guys in later, but this used to be the front of Brian’s car (pic is from a Disney trip full of love bugs.)

And this was Brian’s car as of Friday night:

After most of yesterday in the hospital, he is home with two broken ribs. He is in pain, but still doing his schoolwork in bed today.

Thank God for airbags.
Oh dear heavens. Sorry for the late response. Thank goodness he is ok. I assume the car was totaled by the insurance company. Looks like what my husband's car looked like after it was rammed by a guy that lost control of his car. All his airbags went off. He wasn't hurt at least. I hope Brian continues to improve and that this catastrophe will be a distant memory soon.
