RE: Telecommuting Personnel Job Services

fe8VFankhauser · SOHOjobs Member

I've been notified that I have been awarded a secretarial position with Telecommuting Personnel Job Services. In the email it states

"Please complete the attached document for your background check to proceed further with our hiring and screening process." That document then indicates that I need to enclose a money order or cash in the amount of $25.00 for your background check. It then indicates the following as to to make the money order out to:

Attention to: You will need to leave this section blank on the money order or cashiers check. If you put anything in the attention to section then we will return your money order or cashiers check back to you.
Also, now I am received "reminder" emails from both Telecommting Personel & Vadatabase Assistants Inc. to complete the background check document and return it. This seems a bit odd to me that they would accept cash, and that they do not want the mo made out directly to their organization, and the fact that I am getting e-mails addressed from two different companies saying the same thing.What are your thoughts and suggestions?fe8VFankhauser
