I was recently contacted by Executive Career Program Networks via email informing me that I have a job offer and that I will start working within the next week or two but I must first contact Smith Corps for a background check for my new employers. I was initially confused as they addressed me as "Dear Applicant" and not by my name and they didn't say which company wants to hire me and thirdly I couldn't understand why I was responsible to get a background check for a company that wants to hire me, surely that is the recruitment agencies responsibility. I replied to the email asking for further information but the email failed saying that the address cannot be found. Immediately warning lights went off. I then received a follow up email from Executive Career Program Networks but from a different person expressing the urgency for me to get my background check so they can finalize my job offer. i then searched for smith Corps and found what looked like a legit website and emailed them for information. they replied with a form requesting all of my personal information and they were even so kind to offer me a background check at half price. Being the o.c.d person I am, I immediately spotted grammatical and spelling errors all over the documents. I decided to write it off and have no further contact with either company. I also saw another review online when someone was ripped off by them and I'm relieved I didn't give them any personal information. Apart from stealing your money there is the fear of identity theft. There are people out there taking advantage of people who are desperate to find work, please be careful when looking for work online.
