Another scammer contacted me

I received an email and it was someone who contacted me for a job. I was glad because it was a job from home. The job was called Ads Quality Rater. I almost completed all the details. Just in case I decided to do some research. I found out that it's another scam and employers don't send these messages. I feel sad because I really wanted a job. I will be on disability, but I can receive $20 monthly.

@dya80dya - I know how much you need a job, I would so much help you, but I can find nothing that we can trust online.

@LadyDuck This is true. I noticed that many online sites are scams. They disappear before paying.

It also happened to me. Scammer with different identity contacted me offering a job. I know them from the way they offered the job, so I rejected them and blocked their phone numbers,

I'm really sorry that the job was a scam. I've been scammed few times with fake jobs untill I learned how to differentiate a scam and a real job.

@dya80dya There are more than five jobs I did and was never paid. Both physical jobs and online jobs. I worked in a hotel and the woman paid me on my first month and refused to pay on my second month. So I quit. There was another they called me to town for the job. I looked for fare but when I arrived in town, the man ghosted on me and there was really no job to do. There was another I was asked to pay money so I can get the job. I paid but there was no job. Luckily, I reversed the money.

How were you scammed? Did they take your money or you weren't paid for your work?

I'm sorry you encountered a scammer again. Don't put your effort into anything unless you are sure they are not scammers.

I almost completed all the details because it seemed legit. I am glad that I found out before working for that person.

I too today received a message for some online work. The message did sound fishy so I did not respond. I too am searching for online work and hate it when people try to take advantage of our situation.

It is difficult to get remote jobs from home, I have emails sent about remote jobs and many of them I do not even know what they want, Best of luck to you finding something,

Yes, scammers think that it's easier to steal money instead of working.
