Kimberly from Sleeping Beast job offer, credit report Knoxville, Tennessee

Craigs List scam:
After I applied for a job online, I got this. It seemed fishy, so I did some research and found the EXACT same email online. It is a scam, do not fill out the report.

 I would like to take this moment to thank you for your response to our Craigslist job posting, as well as inform you that, after  reading through your resume, we are interested in discussing this job opportunity with you in person. As of this moment, we have narrowed the field down to 3 potential candidates, yourself being one of them.
      
I would like to congratulate you in making it to the next step of our hiring process. As part of our company's policy, and to protect our company from liabilities and potential issues, the next step of the hiring process includes getting your credit score checked. Please be aware, that a poor score in no way disqualifies you from the position, but simply helps us to get a better understanding of you, and what we can expect from you as an employee. 
      
So we have arranged a FREE service at www.creditreport.com for you to obtain your score. Once you have completed this process, please email me the confirmation # ASAP, so we can move forward. Do NOT include your SSN or any private information in any emails. Please perform this step as soon as you can, as we would like to fill the position soon. Once we receive confirmation that you have completed this step, myself or Mr. Levy, our office manager, will get back to you to
set up the face to face interview.  
      
Again, thank you for your interest, and I hope to hear from you soon.
