Thank you for filing this report. I was suspicious of the interview from the beginning and became more suspicious as the interview progressed. I questioned the "interviewer" about whether this company involved cashing checks and wiring money but was told no. While I waited for the "interviewer" to get back to me, I looked the company up on the Better Business Bureau website as well as RipOff Report. The Better Business Bureau has them rated as an "F" and, of course, I found this report. The company represented themselves as Multi Systems, Inc and had a believable website. It is suspicious that they claim their address in the Austin area but their phone number has a Houston prefix.

Stay away from this company!
