Dalanche Operations Officer Fake Job Scam

And here's another email I just received from another company that immediately wants to hire me without an interview after simply seeing a resume that I supposedly placed online.

Below is a screen shot of the location. Notice far below the internet domain registration by a James Corey of 580 Geary Street in San Francisco. This is funny because that is the same location of a restaurant called the Millennium Restaurant in San Francisco. And to make matters even more suspect, notice the email address on the company website of www.dalanche.com. It's fake because it's going to a @usa.com email domain.

Geez. Please read on for the verbatim email I received plus the following domain look up for the actual website itself to prove why I believe it's a same without any shadow of a doubt.

Below is that email:

Hey it's me again. You can actually visit the website of this fake job by going to www.dalanche.com but it just can't be a real company or job. I'll post more later with information on the website. The website just looks nice and clean and well written but there is no way this job or this company is legitimate.

Have a good week ahead everyone!!

P.S. If you search and do a "whois" on the domain Dalanche.com, you will see the following information which just doesn't add up, either for the name or address of the person that supposedly created this website. And look far below where it . That is also without a doubt a fake name and address for James Corey on "Geary Street" in San Francisco.

Please be careful those who might be considering this company for employment.

It's not real.

Here's the whois information:

A few comments if I may...

I wonder why you must be over 21 years of age. I think if you can fall for a scam you can do that at even as young as 16 years of age.

I really do like the quote, "We are keen to hear from talented individuals with proven experience in sales or marketing and ready to offer a brilliant development program for the right candidate."

If it was a real job it sounds very interested and in line with my experience. But sadly it's not.

What do you think?

P.S. I still monitor posts because of spam I approve posts even if I don't agree with the content. If you attack me personally more than likely I won't post your snarky behavior because I don't see the point.

Have a good week and weekend coming up!!

It's me again...isn't it funny the scammers have to include a NB note at the very end of the stupid fake job message to let us concerned about emailing the scammer's email of Mary.Stevens28@gmail.com to know they are "attempting to cut off the overflow of unsolicited emails delivered our company's emails by using a personal mailbox for initial communication. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience."

How funny is that...so this person decided they don't want to actually show a domain for the company because they want to supposedly cut off the overflow of unsolicited emails delivered.

Huh?

Made me scratch my head on this one...stay far away from this job scam. It isn't a real job and only serves for you to pass along all your personal information for the scammers delight and future abuse.

Have a good week everyone!!
