Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

Transliterate for foreign company using their 1 month trial for hire.

It's a total scam. They use actual company names that have websites but they have no affiliation. They use company names like OSTA and PIGU and send emails through Yandex.com

How it works is that they send you phony emails stating that they need them within 24 hours so clients aren't kept waiting. Unlike similar SCAMS, they aren't really trying to get free transliteration for a month before paying them, their trying to look legit for a month of “trial” and then ask for personal information to start your payments. They'll say that tax information will need to be filled out to make it legal for you in the states. Their phishing, patiently Phishing. They'll even shorten your “trial period “ so you can get paid sooner but it just accelerates their Phishing scheme well appearing to work to your benefit.

A sample of their email pitch.

- WILL YOU PAID WORK TEST PERIOD?

We guarantee the payment of your work duringthe test period. Our reputation is very expensive and we never deceive our employees. All the information we have on the Internet. Try to find us anegative feedback. Recommend that you do this before you start cooperation and not raise this issue in the future.Working together is very important to trust.

- TAX ?

We pay taxes for each of you ourself once a year, but once ayear we give you 1099 form to fill out so we will be able to pay your taxes. But you get your salary in full.

- PAYPAL

If you don't have PayPal account, pleasesign up for new one and make it verified , also please make it unlimited, it will be useful for you to work with us. If you don't know paypal site:www.paypal.com  Usually we require for the paypal 2 days prior the 1st pay date.But you may provide with the email of your PayPal right now to avoid any delays in future.

WHY ARE WE NOT CONCLUDE A CONTRACT WHITH YOU BEFORE YOU START?

We believe that the company develops only if every workplace is a professional.Two weeks - this is a necessary term to you and I made the final decision on further cooperation.

- Why do we use SERVICE YANDEX? Yandex - this is our long-timepartner and the main sponsor. they provide us with high-quality postal service. we are protected from hacking and spam.
