Stay at home mom looking for work is targeted by online thieves
Donna was promised 10-percent of the money cashed, ?It looked legitimate I mean I went to paralegal school and I knew some contractual law and so the contract looked legitimate, but it wasn’t evidentially.? After Donna cashed a check from a “so called” customer and wired the company more than 25-hundred dollars,she later found out the check was fake and she was the one who was stuck paying, ?I was so devastated I cried so hard.? Sgt. Kevin Smith of the St. Petersburg Police Department says, he gets calls like this one at least two times a week, ?It’s heartbreaking because you really hate to see people out there trying to work, trying to sell something to be taken advantage of.? Sgt. Kevin Smith says websites like Career Builder.Com are safe, but people need to be more aware of who they’re dealing with, ?Unfortunately anybody has a right to log in and look at those resumes so you really don’t know who’s actually offering you a job.?
