Career Builder does not monitor the employers that it signs up and there are SCAM companies participating. Below is one of them that we received under the auspices of Career Builder.

(2) CareerBuilder: V-TECH

Before we send you the contract we would like to know the following details, please take time to answer the following questions:

1. Currently, do you work? If yes, will you be able to work for us too?

2. What is your experience with the bank? ( Do you have a bank account ? It is older than 3 months )

Checks will be made payable to you so you can cash them. This will be done until we will be able to come over there establish our business and open a business account with the company's name on it. Making checks payable to you will not make you liable for paying any taxes to IRS. Every year we will provide forms and papers proving that you have to pay the income taxes only on the funds you will earn (10%) from this and NOT TOTAL AMOUNT you will receive.

Will your company ask me any sensitive information such as, Bank Account Numbers, Credit Card Numbers, etc. ?

WE WONT need any of your private information. WE do not want you to believe that this is a trick in order to get your personal banking information or credit card information. We are just trying to get along and extend our services and this is why we need someone who can take care of this thing!

3. Have you ever worked with large amounts of money? ($500-$3,000)

4. Do you understand the whole procedure?

Within 24 hours after we will receive this information we will forward the contract you have to fill in, sign and email back to us.

You can start working for us as soon you will sign the contract.

Thank you for helping spread a word of caution about these types of messages! Based on the information listed within your original post, the message in question does appear to be a payment processing (shipping) scam. It also appears to be a spoof message designed to appear as if it came from a legitimate source or 3rd party company in order to lend it credibility.  

We recommend such messages be disregarded and any current or future correspondence attempts related to the message be ignored.
