Definitely seems like a scam
Definitely seems like a scam. Because I bombed the “automated interview” and was still moved on to the next steps right after. Then I sent my pictures (just took some from my IG, nothing too fancy or professional), and received the call the next day, where the guy was just gassing me up like I was Beyoncé (I’m definitely not lol) and saying how nobody ever has my luck (the other reviews indicate otherwise). He then asked me a few more questions (to which it seemed that no matter what I said, it was the right answer). After that, he just tried to rush me into payment, and when he was explaining the payment options it wasn’t adding up, quarterly typically means 4 times within a year (once every quarter of the year), but he kept saying I would be making weekly or bi-weekly payments of $80+. which would end either in January or February. The math just wasn’t adding up correctly and so I kept asking him questions and I could tell he started getting a little flustered and thrown off. So then he just went back to trying to rush me into a payment and saying I had to do it today or I’d miss this opportunity, so I asked, “can I do it online,” and he said yes and that he’ll send me a text message with the link to pay online. Never received the text message. So while we’re still on the phone, he kept asking for my card information and I reminded him that he JUST said I could pay online. Then he said he has to be on the phone while I do it online. He even tried to like challenge my intelligence a little by saying that having to pay while on the phone was stated in the email, to which I corrected him and explained that the email he was referring to said that you had to make the payment within the same day, NOT while on the phone. And he just said “oh, okay,” and went back to trying to explain why I should pay right now instead because it’s a once in a lifetime chance and giving his suggestions on which payment plan I should pick (of course he picked the more expensive one). After the last time of him trying to push me into giving my card information over the phone, I decided to just be honest and tell him I wasn’t comfortable giving my information over the phone. And he said no problem, finally he agreed to let me do it online and told me to call him back once I did it. He also told me that I had to send a screenshot of my card to him for “confirmation” which obviously didn’t make any sense. So after that I just said, “sure, I’ll do that later today,” and we got off the phone. Still never sent me any texts with a link or additional emails that he said he would send me. And honestly I think I’m glad, because I wasn’t planning on filling in the information anyways. I feel like my curiosity really helped me dodge a bullet honestly. So my advice is to trust your intuition and ask a lot of questions, because if it doesn’t sound legitimate, it probably isn’t!
