I got a text from the person who said their name was Mr. Gilbert. We set up an instant messenger interview. They were offering me a job.They said they worked for the First Solar company. They said they would front the money so I could buy a brand new computer, fax, phone, office supply, etc. They were going to send me a money order, I was to deposit it in my account, and fax them my receipt. They already had my information from my resume from Craigslist and I agreed. Once I realized it was a scam, I ignored all the texts. However, they sent me a check for $1,950.85. I don't see how any company would trust someone enough to send all that money without meeting you, but I believe it's a scam. If you do go through that whole process, don't deposit the money.

Cindy, the exact same thing happened to me. The phone number is a Maryland one, so if this was a legitimate job offer, why wouldn't he want to meet in person. Ridiculous. Disappointed that I fell for it
