They told me I'd be reporting online, starting the next day. They told me I was required to set up a checking account with a savings account attached to it at Wells Fargo for their payroll system. Then email them the name and account numbers. They sent employment documents which were to be signed, then scanned and emailed back. When I asked for a fax number, it was ignored. I called their 800 # on the website, and the call was refused. When I looked up the 800# in Better Business Bureau, the number was for an Axle company in Wisconsin!

The next day, they sent me a Yahoo IM at 3:42 AM telling me to send an IM when I 'reported for work'. Needless to say, when they didn't get this information from me, they did not appear online for any 'work assignment'.

When I looked up the website at WhoIs.net, I found the website had been created the same day as the online interview. Whois.net lists the owner of ntsystinc.com as

ALL of these companies, including Net Systems Inc used the same fax number:

Fax (800) 750-7099.

I reported the fraudulent ad to BAJobs.com, and sent them all of the above contacts.

I also reported this to the FBIs Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3).

Complaint Id: I0806242054419902.

I will also be reporting this to yahoo, gmail, and Melbourne IT (the domain registrar)

There are so many of these scams out there, that they only get investigated when there are enough detailed reports filed with IC3.
