They contacted me via stating their name was “Mr. David Sorrells from Mercer Asset Management Company.” They said they had reviewed my resume and were “very impressed” with my background. It’s really a shame that they are preying on people who need a job, then taking their money, and most likely stealing their sensitive info. They also emailed me with a script almost exactly like the ones posted on this page. It’s despicable and my sympathies go out to anyone who has been successfully scammed by these people. It makes job hunting so much harder, because it can be difficult to distinguish a fake application from a legit one. Researching the company name can sometimes confirm whether or not it’s real, but many of these employment scams are using the names of real companies, such as Mercer Asset Management Company, I found several real companies with either very similar names or identical names. Applying for jobs is time consuming enough without having to do a deep dive on each application to detect scams!
