Job Scam
Under Facebook jobs. personal assistant category. there is quite a few of them with different names, mostly caucasians names, with a super vague profile. Their descriptions for the job will be "Looking for a honest PA, no experienced required, $$$$." the job requires you to post apartment listings on ur facebook market place, reply to the consumers' queries & direct them to the mastermind. they will then email you an invoice for the salary wired to you. However, a activation fee will be required. Now, the mastermind will get you to purchase an itunes card in order to pay that fee. It's a very common listing in facebook jobs. Not only do the job seeker get scammed, those looking for the apartments too.
