Yeeeeeees I am so glad you spoke about this this happened to me they do it with cellphone company’s I had a job for 2 weeks selling cellphones for a 3rd party selling AT&T lines at TARGET SAMS CLUB and I felt so bad I had 5 different people open lines with me when I worked there we had to dress business casual we would make 15.00 and hr or if we exceed that amount in commission we would only make commission NO BREAKS NO LUNCH I made 200$ because I quit they stated that I couldn’t get my commission because I wasn’t staying long enough for the commission to clear when I went to pick up my check they had literally cleared everything as if they were never there it was called ACE MARKETING LLC they supposedly were from Vegas
Or just a job that has way too much work with a tiny team. They typically want "rock stars who work hard play hard" so you feel special for doing the work of 5 people 🙄 lol
I worked for cutco for a day. My mom made me quit because she didn't want me going into stranger's homes to sell knives. She had a old coworker who use to sell papers house to house who was attacked and assaulted. Just goes to show, aside from the scam itself, these companies don't care about you or your safety. They just want money.
I did cutco in high school. Don't you get $25 per appointment even if you don't sell anything. At the time I barely had any financial responsibilities but it wasn't bad.
I got so mad when I tried to get a job and went to a cutco/Vector interview. I’m not a salesperson anyway but I realized mid-interview that it was too vague to be legit. And they wasted an hour and a half to get there
I was sucked into a pyramid scheme recruiting zoom call once! I realized it was a scam about 5 minutes in, and since they insisted that we all keep our microphones on, I decided to mess with them for wasting my time. I kept loudly clearing my throat, coughing, just being an absolute MENACE! 😂 I did the for about 10 minutes, then abruptly left the meeting. Not five minutes later, I got a message from the lady who invited me to the meeting asking “What was your favorite part of the meeting?” I said “When I hung up!” 😂
They really aren't any shittier than big corporations, it's just a different kind of shittiness. It's a more personal kind of mindfuck, because they always try to 'bring you into the family' and you bond with them and even get emotionally involved with the health of the business. Big corporations don't have the time to get in your head that way, their fuckery comes more from the lack of humanity and how easily replaceable you are.
yes!!! i had a little interview with them and learned that it is only comission only and they tried to convince me that there is a really good method. never again!
I got got by symmetry, should have know better. It was more like a book club than anything. They told me I wouldn’t have to get anyone under me that it’s up to me if I wanted to open up my own branch and I didn’t want to. Then all a sudden I was pushed to get people under me. I was also pushed to go to the convention when I didn’t have the money to go nor a sitter for my kids. (Single parent) I am still a lil mad. Thought it was legit bc I had to get my license. But all in all it’s nothing but mlm scheme.
Yessss!!! So many scammy “insurance” companies that also pose as “financial planning” companies. I’m thinking it must be what they call whole life insurance or something?
literally almost got sucked into a MLM first semester of college, fresh out of high school. I did research, applied, got interviewed, got accepted, and the NIGHT before my training was supposed to begin I couldn't handle my gut feeling anymore and emailed them saying something came up with my family, and I'm not in a position to work anymore 😂😭 I got too close man
I remember interviewing for Vector! I was new in the country. So grateful my mom was adamant about me not moving forward with buying their knives to sell
I'm literally haunted by my Vector training. We had a group interview, then I went in the next day. There's a few other people starting at the same time, and so many alarms were going off in my head. There was a couple sitting next to me who were expecting. Like the baby was due any day now. I kept giving them eyes, trying to hint to leave with me. God, I hope they're ok. I couldn't get them away to say anything. When I told the trainer I was dropping out, I said out loud that something doesn't feel right. He was begging me to stay, but I repeated myself and walked out.
I was interviewed by them in…. 2009? 👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻 It was a solo interview at the SKETCHIEST building. No furniture inside other than a single folding table and 2 folding chairs in the back room. Initially thought I was going to be kidnapped then after finding out it was for Kutco I was like okay I’m out of here……
I got a letter saying there was a class settlement for vector like a year ago. I think for the unpaid training if I recall correctly. I would've gotten like $15 from the settlement lol but I just ignored it.
Years ago, when I was about halfway through my degree, I was looking for a more professional job and I scheduled an interview for an insurance company and it turned out to be a large presentation for an insurance Mlm. I bought a whole outfit to wear to my first "adult" interview. 😢
linkedin in a nutshell is husbands trying to cheat on their wives, and the mean girls from high school acting like it's just another social media to show how much better they are than everybody, but with career achievements instead of thirst traps.
I also got hired at a SCAM company! They talked about how quickly you got promoted and form a team while also helping your team to get promoted???? Then when I went to the first day of training I caught all of the red flags. Other people in my group agreed, but I knew for a fact that I wasn’t coming back for another day.
I am licensed in life insurance and gave up on that career as the job adds are all scams and MLMs. I now work as a financial advisor with an actual salary.
This is so discouraging. All of the job hunting sites are saturated with “sales” jobs that have uncapped earning. As a joke, I put in jobs that earned over $2 million, and basically the only jobs that popped up are scammy sales jobs. It’s disheartening.
Part of my job is catching the red flags with checks and deposits that may be fake. This is such a valuable video for me in understanding what someone who brings me a fake check might be seeing online. I don’t know about banks but at least at the credit union I work at, we are ALWAYS more than happy to review a job listing or any correspondence/check etc. to tell you if it might be a scam. Remember, if it is too good to be true, it probably is AND if they send you money to buy supplies/ask for a portion back it’s definitely a scam. Please be cautious too of anything asking for an account and routing number to deposit a starting bonus before you do any work, ask you to download an app, or to log into your online bank account for them to deposit a first check. Edit: YES. The woman in the tiktok in the car described EXACTLY what I see ALL the time. This is also how identity theft happens as they ask for things like your ssn, address, name, phone number, everything (which makes sense for your tax documents when you’re first hired)! Please be careful out there guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I did an interview with Vector Marketing back in 2009! It was an in person group interview with three other people which was not disclosed to me prior. They interviewed us together first, literally telling us only one of us would be hired and then they interviewed us separately. After the individual interview I was told they were picking me and they said they would call in a few days about starting. The interviewer told me not to say anything to the other people if I ran into them when I left. Fortunately I heard one of the other people telling his mom he got the job. The other person was nearby too and we all talked to each other and realized we all were hired lol. When they called me a couple days later I told them I didn’t want to work for a company that lies to me before I even start working there. Back then I had no idea what an MLM was but I was so glad that I avoided working for one!
The first paragraph of your comment, they were doing that still in 2015 when they got me to interview! I knew it was an mlm right away when I realized they were the knife people and sat there texting my family how annoyed I was that I was too shy to just walk out. The interview went on for like 2 hours and then in the individual part, when they tried to hire me, I told them I had no interest in working for a mlm OR any company that had so little respect for my time 😂
Everything old is new again - Cutco/Vector and Kirby Vacuums have been notorious for scammy job ads since the days of print newspapers. Best lesson: if it sounds too good to be true, IT IS.
Yessss! I met with Vector/kutco for the Sketchiest “interview” in 2009 ish after finding them in the newspaper. I swore when I walked in I was about to be kidnapped. 😬😬
I used to work at a warehouse when I was in college that made parts for the Kirby vacuum. I was so surprised when I found out ppl 1. Still purchased them and 2. Ppl used to go door to door to sell them.
I did the door-to-door Kirby selling back in 2004!! 😂😭 I left before the end of my second week lol I should've known when I saw the "casting couch" in the interview room 😂😂
I nearly got sucked into Monat by a friend’s friend. I made friends with a girl and she knew at the time I didn’t have any friends starting college, so they ended up using that to try to get me to join Monat. Most recently like a year ago, my sister in law tried to get me to do Beautycounter under her! I couldn’t help but giggle when they got found out and they shut down as a company. She had also worked for Mary Kay before doing beautycounter. In the south (I’m from louisiana), MLMs and pyramid schemes are basically marketed to young girls if you don’t work in an office or boutique. It’s so sad :(
Lord have mercy I got flashbacks when you mentioned Vector Marketing. They kept sending letters when I was in highschool asking if I wanted a job only to find it was an MLM
One of my acquaintances in college who had my number gave it to them I’m assuming they asked if they knew anyone who would be interested and they would keep harassing me whenever I would block them and keep trying from different numbers 😑
This is really sad and sucks so hard. When you need a job, any opportunity even one that you aren’t really interested in really fills you with so much hope. For it to turn into something like this would be devastating. I got laid off in January. Luckily I went to EMT school and I’m in the process of getting my full license. I just got hired as an ambo driver while I take the test.
I decided to completly close my Indeed account for the same reasons. My interview was an MLM with 200 other people in the Zoom call. I left after 5 minutes lol
I almost got scammed by a lob listing. I'm so embarrassed and so paranoid to apply to jobs now. What's weird is that it was...a totally normal-looking job listing too?? Wasn't an MLM, was an actual company, a graphic designer position
@@pizzadogma Even weirder, They had me answering actual interview questions that I'd expect for such a position. They told me I would be moving forward, but never got back to me so I went to the company's website...and that's how I found out it was a scam.
I had something similar happen applying for graphic design jobs... they said they were hiring a beginning designer for a restaurant company, I can't remember which restaurant now but it was a local chain restaurant that I had heard of and the salary was very normal sounding... I was so excited when I got the job, but I realized it was a scam when they started to ask me about a "background check" and I realized they were trying to get my SSN and other info but it was on a sketchy website and that restaurant company didn't seem to actually be hiring. I think they were trying to steal people's identity info by masquerading as a believable, normal job.
I remember getting almost sucked into Vector Marketing in college, thankfully a classmate talked me out of doing that. A couple years later, the guy who was going to be my upline got arrested in some local "To Catch a Predator" style sting and is now a registered offender 😬
I worked for Cutco back in 2011! I had just moved out of state and desperately needed a job. It was a creepy run down office space with a few mismatched cubicles and one window. Me and a couple other people were hired at the same time and our job was to cold call people. We were handed a stack of paper with THOUSANDS of phone numbers and that was it. I didn’t last a week and said something doesn’t feel right about this scenario. 😂😭
I applied and got an interview that ended up being a group interview. As soon as I learned that it was for Kirby selling vacuums, I walked right out. I was pissed that I wasted valuable time in that morning interview.
I know your content is more about reviewing viral content videos, but a huge employment scam I’ve seen that no one talks about / makes videos about is when Workers are misclassified on tax documents as independent contractors when they should be employees. This is a highly predatory tactic business owners use to try and save money by not paying taxes on behalf of their workers when the demands of the job classify them as such. Employees have more rights than Independent contractors (collecting overtime, scheduled breaks, right to unionize, entitled to medical benefits) but have to follow more stringent guidelines when it comes to work (completing tasks in a sequential order, reporting to a manager for tasks, your job must be performed on location at certain times and cannot be performed elsewhere). Lots of small business owners do this to their employees especially young ones because they don’t expect these workers to know their labor rights. This isn’t taught in school but everyone should know the difference between independent contractors and employees so your boss doesn’t SCAM YOU
OMG I worked for a woman who did this when I worked at her store. She promised me a 1 hour lunch when she hired me, but always got pissed at me for being "late" when I took more than 20 minutes. Totally screwed up my taxes that year. Now I do work as an independent contractor, but in roles where it makes sense (yoga teacher, language tutor).
I had a research based class that made us use linkedin to research jobs. This was an astrophysics based class, so we were looking for mainly labs or programs that let us do RESEARCH. Every other ad or "job" posting was this. I dont even know how they were tagging their "opportunities" for them to land there. Like what does something like AIL have to do with dark matter? I spent more time reporting them than looking for actual job postings 🙄
i got a scam job like this when i was 18. said it was uncapped commission and base pay was 800 a week- contingent on me selling some service to random businesses. going door to door in a big city by myself trying to sell office supply services. after a two days of trying and getting ONE sale and spending so much in gas i quit. So many red flags. and honestly the fact a “serious sales job” wanted me to work for them with zero experience, was a red flag in itself
I’ve been looking for a new job for over a year now, more seriously the last 4 months. I’m thankfully employed and secure, but desperately want to find a job in my degree field & grow. I’ve sent hundreds of applications, done a handful of interviews, but no offers. Thankfully I haven’t encountered it yet, but if one of my leads-that I get way too excited for btw-were an MLM, I would literally rage quit LinkedIn. This is so utterly terrible & I hate peoole sm 😭😭 Thank you for bringing attention to this!!
People with disabilities, especially people with visual impairments had the most toughest time when it comes to searching for jobs. I lived in Orlando for most of my life and I tried finding a job for three years and I hardly got second call back at the first interview. I even remembered the last interview that I had trying to get something in between if my current job fell through that I tried going for a position at PR company and the HR assistant let her boss talk for the, most part. I saw her in my peripheral vision that worked that she was jotting down and not making eye contact with me. I felt like I sprouted and extra head and thought I would not get the second interview and the next day I did not get that call, even though, Disney is doing a lot better with hiring people with disabilities. All I have to say is that I am glad that you are doing a video on this topic since I did get scanned by a so-called work at home company and I am working on a book about scams and how to get around them from my point of view.
My cousin is deep, waaaay deep in this one MLM company, so much so, she quit her permanent job ( with a really great pay) and seems so brain washed now. Everything she talks about is this MLM, and keeps attacking people that are not interested in that conversation.
I did a Vector marketing/Cutco interview about 5+ years ago out of pure curiosity and no intention of joining. They basically show you this emotional video about people who just talk about how much money they make "at their age" (so young) and hardly any details about the actual job lol. When I was done, the guy came back in the room and asked me for a decision. I told him I would need to think it over and he was very caught off guard by that and also very obviously annoyed by that response. He said "what's there to think over?"
@@cherryivana1129 I never said yes haha but I definitely would remove them from resume just me personally! :) In my opinion it's like having an MLM on your resume like Arbonne or something. :P
@@cherryivana1129Vector/Cutco is an mlm. I have heard of job recruiters not offering you a job if you have an mlm on your resume so I recommend you remove it.
I like how you started the video out by saying you had a shower got in your PJs and then started work but you still understand the struggles of people working or looking for work
I was registered at a temp agency and once they sent me on an interview at Primerica. Turned out it was an MLM and I told them I wasn’t interested. When I got home, I called the agency and told them I didn’t appreciate being sent on a MLM call!
Years ago my wife applied to a "marketing coordinator" position, gets to the interview and sees other candidates and many interviewers. My wife's interviewer asks my wife to get in the car with her and they drive off to a Starbucks where she pitches an MLM to her. After the interview, the interviewer rejected my wife because she "was hesitant to get in the car and asked too many questions" (wtf?!). Luckily my wife wasn't desperate for a job and knew about MLM scams, but ANYONE could fall for these scams if the conditions are right for them. Saddest part is that people who run these MLMs at the lower levels are also most likely broke but are soo deep into the scham they have to keep going :(
There are deposit only accounts and credit only routing and account number where anyone with that info can only make deposits and not withdraw. Other than that, aside from a wire transfer, most banks also place a default limit on how much money can be withdrawn or debited from a bank account within 1 day. Usually, the limit for a purchase is anywhere between $1,500 to $5,000. $23,000 is way too much and although not impossible, the story seems unlikely and I would need proof that this actually happened to someone. I understand that the message is to be careful, but it's still important to be accurate with information.
My cousin almost got scammed twice. I told her both times that they were scams but she didn’t want to believe me. Biggest red flag is when they want to send you a check to buy your supplies then ask for you to send them the remaining funds back. The other one, like you said are the group interviews
It would be so funny to apply for the job go to the interview, and entertain them for a bit , then just ask crazy questions and see the reactions on their face 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Entry Level Sales and Account Executive are job titles that can be interchangeable depending on the business; they're just trying to game the system by posting multiple jobs with "different" titles for more visibility. (I do HR)
It's really upsetting to see the addiction one floating around. Any addiction is a serious thing and needs to be treated as such, for someone to come to terms with their problem and then reach out only to be scammed like this is disgusting. Not only will they have lost money but they'll lose faith that they're doing the right thing, they'll feel even worse about themselves. Addiction is a bigger symptom of mental illness, to take someone who is struggling, who is at such a low point in their life and to spit on them like that? Vile. That's not even mentioning the people that they're getting involved in their scam and making them think it's a real job! These people are disgusting.
So the one about "looking for affiliate markers" one, they are looking for people to send those spammy messages to avoid getting their account banned themselves. They know the rules, so they're hiring people to bypass those rules. My day job is in class action, and a LOT of lawsuits include people bypassing rules via contract workers sadly.
When I was a senior in high school I did outside maintenance for an office complex. One of their tenants was vector marketing. Even as a highschooler not knowing what an MLM was I knew they were a scam. I would be out on the grounds, picking up garbage, tending to the flowers and I would see groups of new cars in there couple of times a week for group interviews. one of my friends excitedly told me at school that she had a job interview with a company in the complex that I do maintenance for. I was very excited thinking we could lunch together. She then told me it was vector marketing. I proceeded to tell her everything I knew and suspected about this company. She still went to the interview. And she still, got the job. It took her a few months and realized she wasn’t making any money. She thought it was her and the system. She did end up leaving.
Sounds like a time years ago when I went on a "job interview" that happened to be a Primerica pitch meeting. Ugh. I had no clue that it was an mlm.😩 Thankfully I didn't join,felt uncomfortable,and left asap.lol It shows how deceptive and desperate they are to gain more recruits to scam and hope you are unsuspecting.😔
I started feeling kinda sick and so I got cozy on the couch with a heating pad- this video alone makes me feel better. at least I got good content to enjoy while I wait for the meds to kick in ❤
The door to door jobs always give me the creeps. My sister had a job one year selling air or water I can't remember which one but I remember telling her UHUH no indeed 😂
I just started the video but wanted to go ahead and thank you for addressing this! There's been scams on LinkedIn for years now but I remember seeing two the most: USPS (fake) and Data Entry (dumb survey shit). Some of my 50-something relatives fall too easy for it... like girl you can't be serious that you think an entry level data entry job is going to pay $30/hr 😫
Out of high school I had an interview for vector marketing. I show up and there is a ton of other people there for a group interview. I thought it was weird. After the group interview they pull you in for a one on one and basically give everyone the job and tell you how much you have to pay for all the stuff you need to buy. I never went back and didn’t buy anything. It was so weird
Yupp I got caught in one of these interviews, spent ALL day on this interview, had to buy my own lunch and the job they wanted me to do was "entry-level" but not the position I applied for. The job they wanted was to drive your own car to a section of town and go door to door to business to get to change their electric company. Got cursed out and someone even threatened to shoot us if we came back. Anytime a job has a morning and EOD mandatory hype session is a scam.
Not really. Depends on the bank and what u have set up. I Set my bank account to a strict limit withdrawal via my card and also what is charged online.
Always do your research before a job interview. Even if you know it's 100% legit, you're more likely to get hired if you can show that you know something about the company and can ask good questions based on your research. And know that group interviews are not automatically a red flag. I had a group interview for Ulta once (the manager double booked the interview) and sometimes you will be interviewed by a panel of people for government jobs (I had an interview for a crime bureau where I was interviewed by 7 people).
I fell for one of these scams as well! I was really desperate to leave a terrible job and this job was the only one to offer me an interview. When I went to do some research on the company ahead of the interview, their website’s FAQs said they’re not an MLM in all caps. That was enough of a red flag for me to cancel the interview! They also were really specific about dressing professionally for the interview and the website talked more about how much money you could make and sales incentive trips you could earn that the actual work the company did.
I've been contacted from "employers" for jobs and it all sounds good until they say i had to pay for a credit report to be run and I would have to pay for it. Yep, red flag. So I told them I knew they were scammers and then I reported them.
I'd love if you could apply to these jobs and document the process, would help people see the red flags when they are already in the recruitment process for some random scams that have well written job descriptions
I worked at vector/Cutco for two years and at least at the interviews we were told to have the chats so they could only write to us and ignore the questions. After, we would call each person individually and I never personally got someone who was opposing at that point since the interview was around 2hrs. I also got to cold call a lot of people as a receptionist there (I did it all lol) and if the question wasn’t in the script we were told to say that that could be answered by a manager during the interview and continue scheduling them. I was doing ok at the job making a good amount of money for a college student, but I quit after they started pushing me to do sales in person (at random people's houses) and they wanted me to "rent" a kit. I started working in 2021 and well we couldn't go to people's houses, so I never had to buy the set
Just starting but a lot of these job listing are also, giving out free phones but the kicker is you have to buy the phones and get reimbursed. They say the work with Target, Costco, Verizon, ATT etc but it's just you standing outside these stores harassing people. They also all seem to be out of Riverside CA. My poor hubby has been looking for a job since he was laid off during Covid, but it's hard for a 53 year old man. All day, he fills out applications with nothing.
I got fired from a marketing position about a month in with some bs excuse because I asked them if the company was MLM. I wasn't hired for and never had to do sales, but how they were describing the structure of the company seemed off. Guess I was right 😅
Okay you’re so real for wearing pajamas like genuinely work 🥰 Alsooo I literally was like “oh yeah I do need new glasses and need an eye exam” and here you are!! I swear when I started watching the video I was like, “omg I love her glasses I wonder if she’s said where they’re from” ❤ I love your vibe and your amazing intelligence girl! PS; I’m a fellow KS girlie! 🥳
I used to work for Vector Marketing. My title was Receptionist. I sat in a room making appointments to try to what I now know was "recruit" people to Cutco...it was awful.
Props to that guy who still joined the Zoom call just to call them out for being a scam. Not only is he making it known that he will not be scammed but also alerting the others in a way.
I never comment on anything but I applied for a solar panel job and as soon as I got the email for the interview I knew it was a MLM. I haven't heard anyone else talking about the scam job listing yet.
First year in college, I was almost recruted to sell encyclopedies door-to-door. I didnt join bec. I was too broke to afford the "inventory". I'm so glad, I went and got a regular summer job instead: a salary with benefits > sales commissions.
I work at a bank and this account draining one scares me to death. Once you give someone your information like that, they can do whatever they want with it. Certain things you can get your money back with, but the bank has to follow their own regulations and that set up by the federal government, they can’t just give you that kind of money back because you made a mistake and judgment and got scammed. It’s terrible that it happened but the bank isn’t gonna take that loss either. You need to be protective of your personal information especially your bank account. I’m sure everyone that they dealt with at the bank felt terrible, but their hands were tied and they literally could do nothing.
Back when I was still job hunting I got a cold call ON A SATURDAY and I knew it was not the kind of position I was interested in but I didn't know how to say no to people so I took the virtual interview and when we did get on the call I let the guy do his schpiel and it was some kind of sales thing that seemed super scammy and mlm-y so I told him I didn't think it was the position for me and he like tried to bully me into taking the job??? I was like okay this is ridiculous, do not contact me again and hung up
"Agency of Valor" doesn't sound like an insurance company. I mean who even uses the term valor other than Medieval knights or maybe the military? (Also sorry to be that person but it’s pronounced "va-lər" or "va-lor" not "valour" which is more like velour a type of fabric.) Love your content!
27:01 the same thing just happened to me, my university sent me an email about a job opportunity and it was a completely scam! Now i have to find a new internship or else i can’t graduate :(
Guys genuinely I’m so surprised I’m still and hour early to vids normally I’m days late 😭 great vid! By the way I love the in depth info but also pointing out what could be improved on and what wrong and explaining!!
Smart Circle was notorious for crap job ads, and I'm willing to bet that's the company the woman in the tiktok applied to. I applied to one of their ads as a fresh college grad because the title was something like "PR Assistant," and then the interview was going to watch someone sell bullshit to people at Sam's Club. I was so angry and thankfully didn't fall for it.
Dude! Vector marketing!! They fully came to our college prep class in high school and was trying to rope in all of us they even sent out multiple flyers to most of the students. It’s so predatory. Even fooled our teacher. Luckily one of the students was like why do they sell knives lmao
I had a terrible interview with a scammy "business". It was sketchy and terrifying. I reached out to family and friends and shared my location JIC something bad were to happen. But I was desperate and young so I didn't know better. Turns out, they were some type of MLM/Scam 🤢
my favourite is we found your profile and we believe you are a perfect fit for our products. and its a fucking goth brand. this is mostly for my cosplay page, where none of it is gothic, or its lingerie, which there is none of on my page

Yeeeeeees I am so glad you spoke about this this happened to me they do it with cellphone company’s I had a job for 2 weeks selling cellphones for a 3rd party selling AT&T lines at TARGET SAMS CLUB and I felt so bad I had 5 different people open lines with me when I worked there we had to dress business casual we would make 15.00 and hr or if we exceed that amount in commission we would only make commission NO BREAKS NO LUNCH I made 200$ because I quit they stated that I couldn’t get my commission because I wasn’t staying long enough for the commission to clear when I went to pick up my check they had literally cleared everything as if they were never there it was called ACE MARKETING LLC they supposedly were from Vegas
Scam
If they can't figure out the difference between "you're" and "your".... just keep scrolling
Lmfaooo you’re so right about that 😂😂
Reminds me of those spam emails like “oh your account is in trouble” but the word ‘your’ is spelled as ‘yuor’.
Bahahaha!😂😂
Major red flag for me hahah
Omg!!! Hahahahaha!!
If a job application has the word "superstar" or "rockstar", it's also likely a scam lol
Or a restaurant job 😅
Or just a job that has way too much work with a tiny team. They typically want "rock stars who work hard play hard" so you feel special for doing the work of 5 people 🙄 lol
"we're like a family" (u are gonna be exploited)
Nahhh just shitty. lol
if it isn't a scam it is definitely a toxic work environment
remember in MLMs: you don't get customers, YOU ARE THE CUSTOMER
👏👏👏

I worked for cutco for a day. My mom made me quit because she didn't want me going into stranger's homes to sell knives. She had a old coworker who use to sell papers house to house who was attacked and assaulted. Just goes to show, aside from the scam itself, these companies don't care about you or your safety. They just want money.
I did cutco in high school. Don't you get $25 per appointment even if you don't sell anything. At the time I barely had any financial responsibilities but it wasn't bad.
Cutco is legit I got their knives but is impossible making money 😂
I got so mad when I tried to get a job and went to a cutco/Vector interview. I’m not a salesperson anyway but I realized mid-interview that it was too vague to be legit. And they wasted an hour and a half to get there
@@smartmoneywomenjust bc u get a product doesn’t mean it’s legit, cutco is still a MLM regardless of what they sell
and cutco and most of these mlms target young people barely out of highschool that don’t know better
I was sucked into a pyramid scheme recruiting zoom call once! I realized it was a scam about 5 minutes in, and since they insisted that we all keep our microphones on, I decided to mess with them for wasting my time. I kept loudly clearing my throat, coughing, just being an absolute MENACE! 😂 I did the for about 10 minutes, then abruptly left the meeting. Not five minutes later, I got a message from the lady who invited me to the meeting asking “What was your favorite part of the meeting?” I said “When I hung up!” 😂
My mom told me, "no way you got a degree and almost fell for that"
😭😭😭 I was down bad for a job
sound like my mom lmao
😂😂😂 this is killing me bc my mom would comfort me and then roast me
“Passive income” is such a red flag.
If any job tells you it's a family-run practice run. It's not worth the bs to work for them 😬
Definitely depends on the company/family
!!!!!!
They really aren't any shittier than big corporations, it's just a different kind of shittiness. It's a more personal kind of mindfuck, because they always try to 'bring you into the family' and you bond with them and even get emotionally involved with the health of the business. Big corporations don't have the time to get in your head that way, their fuckery comes more from the lack of humanity and how easily replaceable you are.
There is so many scams within the life insurance industry. I really hope you do one in just the insurance industry.
yes!!! i had a little interview with them and learned that it is only comission only and they tried to convince me that there is a really good method. never again!
@@estrellamartin1279 would that happen to be Northwestern Mutual? Bc I've got an interview with them tomorrow and they look sus
Yes please, my husband nearly got caught by one until I heard about it!
I got got by symmetry, should have know better. It was more like a book club than anything. They told me I wouldn’t have to get anyone under me that it’s up to me if I wanted to open up my own branch and I didn’t want to. Then all a sudden I was pushed to get people under me. I was also pushed to go to the convention when I didn’t have the money to go nor a sitter for my kids. (Single parent) I am still a lil mad. Thought it was legit bc I had to get my license. But all in all it’s nothing but mlm scheme.
Yessss!!! So many scammy “insurance” companies that also pose as “financial planning” companies. I’m thinking it must be what they call whole life insurance or something?
literally almost got sucked into a MLM first semester of college, fresh out of high school. I did research, applied, got interviewed, got accepted, and the NIGHT before my training was supposed to begin I couldn't handle my gut feeling anymore and emailed them saying something came up with my family, and I'm not in a position to work anymore 😂😭 I got too close man
I remember interviewing for Vector! I was new in the country. So grateful my mom was adamant about me not moving forward with buying their knives to sell
OMG I sat through the interview and everything lolololol I can’t believe I’m just putting two and two together
I'm literally haunted by my Vector training. We had a group interview, then I went in the next day. There's a few other people starting at the same time, and so many alarms were going off in my head.
There was a couple sitting next to me who were expecting. Like the baby was due any day now. I kept giving them eyes, trying to hint to leave with me. God, I hope they're ok. I couldn't get them away to say anything.
When I told the trainer I was dropping out, I said out loud that something doesn't feel right. He was begging me to stay, but I repeated myself and walked out.
I was interviewed by them in…. 2009? 👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻 It was a solo interview at the SKETCHIEST building. No furniture inside other than a single folding table and 2 folding chairs in the back room.
Initially thought I was going to be kidnapped then after finding out it was for Kutco I was like okay I’m out of here……
I worked with Vector at 17! Definitely lied about booking appointments so I could still get booked lolol
I got a letter saying there was a class settlement for vector like a year ago. I think for the unpaid training if I recall correctly. I would've gotten like $15 from the settlement lol but I just ignored it.
Years ago, when I was about halfway through my degree, I was looking for a more professional job and I scheduled an interview for an insurance company and it turned out to be a large presentation for an insurance Mlm. I bought a whole outfit to wear to my first "adult" interview. 😢
Omg I’m so sorry!!! I feel you! I felt so excited for a big job! And then damn it a scam! I hate it
They're still at it, nearly got my husband last year til I caught him a Zoom with this so-called company and heard some of it. They're just awful.
Aw 🥺
@@AdeliaCreates same here 😭
linkedin needs to be studied cuz what is actually going on there😭⁉️
FR
linkedin in a nutshell is husbands trying to cheat on their wives, and the mean girls from high school acting like it's just another social media to show how much better they are than everybody, but with career achievements instead of thirst traps.
stop this is embarrassing I DO💀
I love linkedin troll posts tho like the raw chicken in hotel kettle saga
Nah FR😭
I also got hired at a SCAM company! They talked about how quickly you got promoted and form a team while also helping your team to get promoted???? Then when I went to the first day of training I caught all of the red flags. Other people in my group agreed, but I knew for a fact that I wasn’t coming back for another day.
Yupp!! But what they don't tell you is when you get promoted to Branch manager you have to move to a different state to start your team.
I am licensed in life insurance and gave up on that career as the job adds are all scams and MLMs. I now work as a financial advisor with an actual salary.
This is so discouraging. All of the job hunting sites are saturated with “sales” jobs that have uncapped earning. As a joke, I put in jobs that earned over $2 million, and basically the only jobs that popped up are scammy sales jobs. It’s disheartening.
Part of my job is catching the red flags with checks and deposits that may be fake. This is such a valuable video for me in understanding what someone who brings me a fake check might be seeing online. I don’t know about banks but at least at the credit union I work at, we are ALWAYS more than happy to review a job listing or any correspondence/check etc. to tell you if it might be a scam. Remember, if it is too good to be true, it probably is AND if they send you money to buy supplies/ask for a portion back it’s definitely a scam. Please be cautious too of anything asking for an account and routing number to deposit a starting bonus before you do any work, ask you to download an app, or to log into your online bank account for them to deposit a first check.
Edit: YES. The woman in the tiktok in the car described EXACTLY what I see ALL the time. This is also how identity theft happens as they ask for things like your ssn, address, name, phone number, everything (which makes sense for your tax documents when you’re first hired)! Please be careful out there guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I did an interview with Vector Marketing back in 2009! It was an in person group interview with three other people which was not disclosed to me prior. They interviewed us together first, literally telling us only one of us would be hired and then they interviewed us separately.
After the individual interview I was told they were picking me and they said they would call in a few days about starting. The interviewer told me not to say anything to the other people if I ran into them when I left. Fortunately I heard one of the other people telling his mom he got the job. The other person was nearby too and we all talked to each other and realized we all were hired lol.
When they called me a couple days later I told them I didn’t want to work for a company that lies to me before I even start working there. Back then I had no idea what an MLM was but I was so glad that I avoided working for one!
The first paragraph of your comment, they were doing that still in 2015 when they got me to interview! I knew it was an mlm right away when I realized they were the knife people and sat there texting my family how annoyed I was that I was too shy to just walk out. The interview went on for like 2 hours and then in the individual part, when they tried to hire me, I told them I had no interest in working for a mlm OR any company that had so little respect for my time 😂
Job finding is difficult enough, now its mixed in with scams!!!
Everything old is new again - Cutco/Vector and Kirby Vacuums have been notorious for scammy job ads since the days of print newspapers. Best lesson: if it sounds too good to be true, IT IS.
Yessss! I met with Vector/kutco for the Sketchiest “interview” in 2009 ish after finding them in the newspaper.
I swore when I walked in I was about to be kidnapped. 😬😬
I used to work at a warehouse when I was in college that made parts for the Kirby vacuum. I was so surprised when I found out ppl 1. Still purchased them and 2. Ppl used to go door to door to sell them.
I did the door-to-door Kirby selling back in 2004!! 😂😭 I left before the end of my second week lol I should've known when I saw the "casting couch" in the interview room 😂😂
Lmao I knew a few people who got roped into that@@blaah9999
They were....not the sharpest knives in the drawer 😎
I nearly got sucked into Monat by a friend’s friend. I made friends with a girl and she knew at the time I didn’t have any friends starting college, so they ended up using that to try to get me to join Monat. Most recently like a year ago, my sister in law tried to get me to do Beautycounter under her! I couldn’t help but giggle when they got found out and they shut down as a company. She had also worked for Mary Kay before doing beautycounter. In the south (I’m from louisiana), MLMs and pyramid schemes are basically marketed to young girls if you don’t work in an office or boutique. It’s so sad :(
Lord have mercy I got flashbacks when you mentioned Vector Marketing. They kept sending letters when I was in highschool asking if I wanted a job only to find it was an MLM
I still got letters in college and even after I graduated
One of my acquaintances in college who had my number gave it to them I’m assuming they asked if they knew anyone who would be interested and they would keep harassing me whenever I would block them and keep trying from different numbers 😑
This is really sad and sucks so hard. When you need a job, any opportunity even one that you aren’t really interested in really fills you with so much hope. For it to turn into something like this would be devastating.
I got laid off in January. Luckily I went to EMT school and I’m in the process of getting my full license. I just got hired as an ambo driver while I take the test.
I decided to completly close my Indeed account for the same reasons. My interview was an MLM with 200 other people in the Zoom call. I left after 5 minutes lol
Omg 200 in an interview zoom is insane 😂😂😂
Thank you for talking about this! I just recently started a new job after months of job searching. The scams are rampant!
I almost got scammed by a lob listing. I'm so embarrassed and so paranoid to apply to jobs now. What's weird is that it was...a totally normal-looking job listing too?? Wasn't an MLM, was an actual company, a graphic designer position
This! Too many look legit and it sucks u cant trust anyone
@@pizzadogma Even weirder, They had me answering actual interview questions that I'd expect for such a position. They told me I would be moving forward, but never got back to me so I went to the company's website...and that's how I found out it was a scam.
thats so weird! what do they gain from thatv
I had something similar happen applying for graphic design jobs... they said they were hiring a beginning designer for a restaurant company, I can't remember which restaurant now but it was a local chain restaurant that I had heard of and the salary was very normal sounding... I was so excited when I got the job, but I realized it was a scam when they started to ask me about a "background check" and I realized they were trying to get my SSN and other info but it was on a sketchy website and that restaurant company didn't seem to actually be hiring. I think they were trying to steal people's identity info by masquerading as a believable, normal job.
I remember getting almost sucked into Vector Marketing in college, thankfully a classmate talked me out of doing that.
A couple years later, the guy who was going to be my upline got arrested in some local "To Catch a Predator" style sting and is now a registered offender 😬
I worked for Cutco back in 2011! I had just moved out of state and desperately needed a job. It was a creepy run down office space with a few mismatched cubicles and one window. Me and a couple other people were hired at the same time and our job was to cold call people. We were handed a stack of paper with THOUSANDS of phone numbers and that was it. I didn’t last a week and said something doesn’t feel right about this scenario. 😂😭
I applied and got an interview that ended up being a group interview. As soon as I learned that it was for Kirby selling vacuums, I walked right out. I was pissed that I wasted valuable time in that morning interview.
I know your content is more about reviewing viral content videos, but a huge employment scam I’ve seen that no one talks about / makes videos about is when Workers are misclassified on tax documents as independent contractors when they should be employees. This is a highly predatory tactic business owners use to try and save money by not paying taxes on behalf of their workers when the demands of the job classify them as such. Employees have more rights than Independent contractors (collecting overtime, scheduled breaks, right to unionize, entitled to medical benefits) but have to follow more stringent guidelines when it comes to work (completing tasks in a sequential order, reporting to a manager for tasks, your job must be performed on location at certain times and cannot be performed elsewhere). Lots of small business owners do this to their employees especially young ones because they don’t expect these workers to know their labor rights. This isn’t taught in school but everyone should know the difference between independent contractors and employees so your boss doesn’t SCAM YOU
OMG I worked for a woman who did this when I worked at her store. She promised me a 1 hour lunch when she hired me, but always got pissed at me for being "late" when I took more than 20 minutes. Totally screwed up my taxes that year.
Now I do work as an independent contractor, but in roles where it makes sense (yoga teacher, language tutor).
“I’m gonna stop you right there girl boss” I need to make that phrase part of my vernacular, thank you
I had a research based class that made us use linkedin to research jobs. This was an astrophysics based class, so we were looking for mainly labs or programs that let us do RESEARCH. Every other ad or "job" posting was this. I dont even know how they were tagging their "opportunities" for them to land there. Like what does something like AIL have to do with dark matter? I spent more time reporting them than looking for actual job postings 🙄
The resume writer in me is dyinggg.
i got a scam job like this when i was 18. said it was uncapped commission and base pay was 800 a week- contingent on me selling some service to random businesses. going door to door in a big city by myself trying to sell office supply services. after a two days of trying and getting ONE sale and spending so much in gas i quit. So many red flags. and honestly the fact a “serious sales job” wanted me to work for them with zero experience, was a red flag in itself
I’ve been looking for a new job for over a year now, more seriously the last 4 months. I’m thankfully employed and secure, but desperately want to find a job in my degree field & grow. I’ve sent hundreds of applications, done a handful of interviews, but no offers. Thankfully I haven’t encountered it yet, but if one of my leads-that I get way too excited for btw-were an MLM, I would literally rage quit LinkedIn. This is so utterly terrible & I hate peoole sm 😭😭 Thank you for bringing attention to this!!
Bella providing me with great content as I walk to work and even while I work. Still listening to videos from 2 years ago lol
People with disabilities, especially people with visual impairments had the most toughest time when it comes to searching for jobs. I lived in Orlando for most of my life and I tried finding a job for three years and I hardly got second call back at the first interview. I even remembered the last interview that I had trying to get something in between if my current job fell through that I tried going for a position at PR company and the HR assistant let her boss talk for the, most part. I saw her in my peripheral vision that worked that she was jotting down and not making eye contact with me. I felt like I sprouted and extra head and thought I would not get the second interview and the next day I did not get that call, even though, Disney is doing a lot better with hiring people with disabilities. All I have to say is that I am glad that you are doing a video on this topic since I did get scanned by a so-called work at home company and I am working on a book about scams and how to get around them from my point of view.
My cousin is deep, waaaay deep in this one MLM company, so much so, she quit her permanent job ( with a really great pay) and seems so brain washed now. Everything she talks about is this MLM, and keeps attacking people that are not interested in that conversation.
I did a Vector marketing/Cutco interview about 5+ years ago out of pure curiosity and no intention of joining. They basically show you this emotional video about people who just talk about how much money they make "at their age" (so young) and hardly any details about the actual job lol. When I was done, the guy came back in the room and asked me for a decision. I told him I would need to think it over and he was very caught off guard by that and also very obviously annoyed by that response. He said "what's there to think over?"
Omg I worked for them too. I’m so glad I quit. I have it on my resume and I’m contemplating on removing it
@@cherryivana1129 I never said yes haha but I definitely would remove them from resume just me personally! :) In my opinion it's like having an MLM on your resume like Arbonne or something. :P
@@cherryivana1129Vector/Cutco is an mlm. I have heard of job recruiters not offering you a job if you have an mlm on your resume so I recommend you remove it.
I like how you started the video out by saying you had a shower got in your PJs and then started work but you still understand the struggles of people working or looking for work
I was registered at a temp agency and once they sent me on an interview at Primerica. Turned out it was an MLM and I told them I wasn’t interested.
When I got home, I called the agency and told them I didn’t appreciate being sent on a MLM call!
Years ago my wife applied to a "marketing coordinator" position, gets to the interview and sees other candidates and many interviewers. My wife's interviewer asks my wife to get in the car with her and they drive off to a Starbucks where she pitches an MLM to her. After the interview, the interviewer rejected my wife because she "was hesitant to get in the car and asked too many questions" (wtf?!).
Luckily my wife wasn't desperate for a job and knew about MLM scams, but ANYONE could fall for these scams if the conditions are right for them.
Saddest part is that people who run these MLMs at the lower levels are also most likely broke but are soo deep into the scham they have to keep going :(
There are deposit only accounts and credit only routing and account number where anyone with that info can only make deposits and not withdraw. Other than that, aside from a wire transfer, most banks also place a default limit on how much money can be withdrawn or debited from a bank account within 1 day. Usually, the limit for a purchase is anywhere between $1,500 to $5,000. $23,000 is way too much and although not impossible, the story seems unlikely and I would need proof that this actually happened to someone. I understand that the message is to be careful, but it's still important to be accurate with information.
Yeah, that story is complete BS. In Australia we give out our bank account numbers all the time for people to pay us. No one can do anything with it.
5:07 Betting the left TT lmao omg you had me crying with this.
My cousin almost got scammed twice. I told her both times that they were scams but she didn’t want to believe me. Biggest red flag is when they want to send you a check to buy your supplies then ask for you to send them the remaining funds back. The other one, like you said are the group interviews
Can I just say I love your videos so much? All the work you put in is really appreciated thank you so much
It would be so funny to apply for the job go to the interview, and entertain them for a bit , then just ask crazy questions and see the reactions on their face 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Entry Level Sales and Account Executive are job titles that can be interchangeable depending on the business; they're just trying to game the system by posting multiple jobs with "different" titles for more visibility. (I do HR)
One hundred and twenty dollars US dollars! Atomic Shrimp vibes 😁
It's really upsetting to see the addiction one floating around. Any addiction is a serious thing and needs to be treated as such, for someone to come to terms with their problem and then reach out only to be scammed like this is disgusting. Not only will they have lost money but they'll lose faith that they're doing the right thing, they'll feel even worse about themselves. Addiction is a bigger symptom of mental illness, to take someone who is struggling, who is at such a low point in their life and to spit on them like that? Vile.
That's not even mentioning the people that they're getting involved in their scam and making them think it's a real job! These people are disgusting.
So the one about "looking for affiliate markers" one, they are looking for people to send those spammy messages to avoid getting their account banned themselves. They know the rules, so they're hiring people to bypass those rules. My day job is in class action, and a LOT of lawsuits include people bypassing rules via contract workers sadly.
I'm only 4 minutes in but I love how the first job exposes itself as a pyramid scheme by writing their ~possible salaries~ as a literal pyramid, too.
I'm at the beginning of the video... and "Agency of Valor"? It looks like a cheap heroes' group name in a low quality fantasy / fantastic show 😂
When I was a senior in high school I did outside maintenance for an office complex. One of their tenants was vector marketing. Even as a highschooler not knowing what an MLM was I knew they were a scam. I would be out on the grounds, picking up garbage, tending to the flowers and I would see groups of new cars in there couple of times a week for group interviews. one of my friends excitedly told me at school that she had a job interview with a company in the complex that I do maintenance for. I was very excited thinking we could lunch together. She then told me it was vector marketing. I proceeded to tell her everything I knew and suspected about this company. She still went to the interview. And she still, got the job. It took her a few months and realized she wasn’t making any money. She thought it was her and the system. She did end up leaving.
Sounds like a time years ago when I went on a "job interview" that happened to be a Primerica pitch meeting. Ugh. I had no clue that it was an mlm.😩
Thankfully I didn't join,felt uncomfortable,and left asap.lol
It shows how deceptive and desperate they are to gain more recruits to scam and hope you are unsuspecting.😔
I started feeling kinda sick and so I got cozy on the couch with a heating pad- this video alone makes me feel better. at least I got good content to enjoy while I wait for the meds to kick in ❤
The door to door jobs always give me the creeps. My sister had a job one year selling air or water I can't remember which one but I remember telling her UHUH no indeed 😂
I just started the video but wanted to go ahead and thank you for addressing this! There's been scams on LinkedIn for years now but I remember seeing two the most: USPS (fake) and Data Entry (dumb survey shit). Some of my 50-something relatives fall too easy for it... like girl you can't be serious that you think an entry level data entry job is going to pay $30/hr 😫
God I wish an entry level would pay 30/hr though.

"F*ck you, pay me" is Goodfellas vibes lmao I love isabella
Out of high school I had an interview for vector marketing. I show up and there is a ton of other people there for a group interview. I thought it was weird. After the group interview they pull you in for a one on one and basically give everyone the job and tell you how much you have to pay for all the stuff you need to buy. I never went back and didn’t buy anything. It was so weird
Yupp I got caught in one of these interviews, spent ALL day on this interview, had to buy my own lunch and the job they wanted me to do was "entry-level" but not the position I applied for. The job they wanted was to drive your own car to a section of town and go door to door to business to get to change their electric company. Got cursed out and someone even threatened to shoot us if we came back. Anytime a job has a morning and EOD mandatory hype session is a scam.
How can your account physically go negative 23k? Don't banks not go over 500 negative.
Not really. Depends on the bank and what u have set up. I Set my bank account to a strict limit withdrawal via my card and also what is charged online.
Always do your research before a job interview. Even if you know it's 100% legit, you're more likely to get hired if you can show that you know something about the company and can ask good questions based on your research. And know that group interviews are not automatically a red flag. I had a group interview for Ulta once (the manager double booked the interview) and sometimes you will be interviewed by a panel of people for government jobs (I had an interview for a crime bureau where I was interviewed by 7 people).
I fell for one of these scams as well! I was really desperate to leave a terrible job and this job was the only one to offer me an interview. When I went to do some research on the company ahead of the interview, their website’s FAQs said they’re not an MLM in all caps. That was enough of a red flag for me to cancel the interview! They also were really specific about dressing professionally for the interview and the website talked more about how much money you could make and sales incentive trips you could earn that the actual work the company did.
You did this right on time!! I’m 16 applying for a job and I am very clueless
Thanks for the heads up since I am more active on LinkedIn these days
I've been contacted from "employers" for jobs and it all sounds good until they say i had to pay for a credit report to be run and I would have to pay for it. Yep, red flag. So I told them I knew they were scammers and then I reported them.
I'd love if you could apply to these jobs and document the process, would help people see the red flags when they are already in the recruitment process for some random scams that have well written job descriptions
I worked at vector/Cutco for two years and at least at the interviews we were told to have the chats so they could only write to us and ignore the questions. After, we would call each person individually and I never personally got someone who was opposing at that point since the interview was around 2hrs. I also got to cold call a lot of people as a receptionist there (I did it all lol) and if the question wasn’t in the script we were told to say that that could be answered by a manager during the interview and continue scheduling them. I was doing ok at the job making a good amount of money for a college student, but I quit after they started pushing me to do sales in person (at random people's houses) and they wanted me to "rent" a kit. I started working in 2021 and well we couldn't go to people's houses, so I never had to buy the set
The thing that boils my blood is these people using ther niceness to scam having the huge potential of ruining your life in exhange.
Just starting but a lot of these job listing are also, giving out free phones but the kicker is you have to buy the phones and get reimbursed. They say the work with Target, Costco, Verizon, ATT etc but it's just you standing outside these stores harassing people. They also all seem to be out of Riverside CA. My poor hubby has been looking for a job since he was laid off during Covid, but it's hard for a 53 year old man. All day, he fills out applications with nothing.
I got fired from a marketing position about a month in with some bs excuse because I asked them if the company was MLM. I wasn't hired for and never had to do sales, but how they were describing the structure of the company seemed off. Guess I was right 😅
I applied to so many jobs and they all havent gotten back to me
Okay you’re so real for wearing pajamas like genuinely work 🥰
Alsooo I literally was like “oh yeah I do need new glasses and need an eye exam” and here you are!!
I swear when I started watching the video I was like, “omg I love her glasses I wonder if she’s said where they’re from” ❤ I love your vibe and your amazing intelligence girl!
PS; I’m a fellow KS girlie! 🥳
I used to work for Vector Marketing. My title was Receptionist. I sat in a room making appointments to try to what I now know was "recruit" people to Cutco...it was awful.
Props to that guy who still joined the Zoom call just to call them out for being a scam. Not only is he making it known that he will not be scammed but also alerting the others in a way.
I never comment on anything but I applied for a solar panel job and as soon as I got the email for the interview I knew it was a MLM. I haven't heard anyone else talking about the scam job listing yet.
First year in college, I was almost recruted to sell encyclopedies door-to-door. I didnt join bec. I was too broke to afford the "inventory". I'm so glad, I went and got a regular summer job instead: a salary with benefits > sales commissions.
I work at a bank and this account draining one scares me to death. Once you give someone your information like that, they can do whatever they want with it. Certain things you can get your money back with, but the bank has to follow their own regulations and that set up by the federal government, they can’t just give you that kind of money back because you made a mistake and judgment and got scammed. It’s terrible that it happened but the bank isn’t gonna take that loss either. You need to be protective of your personal information especially your bank account. I’m sure everyone that they dealt with at the bank felt terrible, but their hands were tied and they literally could do nothing.
best advice ever, if it sounds too good to be true, IT IS!! it ALWAYS is
Back when I was still job hunting I got a cold call ON A SATURDAY and I knew it was not the kind of position I was interested in but I didn't know how to say no to people so I took the virtual interview and when we did get on the call I let the guy do his schpiel and it was some kind of sales thing that seemed super scammy and mlm-y so I told him I didn't think it was the position for me and he like tried to bully me into taking the job??? I was like okay this is ridiculous, do not contact me again and hung up
love the comfy pjs! keep em so we can get some pj sponsors in here!
cold calling for a 3% finder's fee isn't a job btw
"Agency of Valor" doesn't sound like an insurance company. I mean who even uses the term valor other than Medieval knights or maybe the military? (Also sorry to be that person but it’s pronounced "va-lər" or "va-lor" not "valour" which is more like velour a type of fabric.) Love your content!
I love you and don't mean this in a rude way but "valor" is pronounced VAH-lur not vuh-lore (velour). Love your channel xoxo

27:01 the same thing just happened to me, my university sent me an email about a job opportunity and it was a completely scam! Now i have to find a new internship or else i can’t graduate :(
2:13 i love when that happens. tiny eye bella 😭
Guys genuinely I’m so surprised I’m still and hour early to vids normally I’m days late 😭 great vid! By the way I love the in depth info but also pointing out what could be improved on and what wrong and explaining!!
Smart Circle was notorious for crap job ads, and I'm willing to bet that's the company the woman in the tiktok applied to. I applied to one of their ads as a fresh college grad because the title was something like "PR Assistant," and then the interview was going to watch someone sell bullshit to people at Sam's Club. I was so angry and thankfully didn't fall for it.
Dude! Vector marketing!! They fully came to our college prep class in high school and was trying to rope in all of us they even sent out multiple flyers to most of the students. It’s so predatory. Even fooled our teacher. Luckily one of the students was like why do they sell knives lmao
I can't imagine going through the interview to find out it's an MLM. The waste of time! I would be pissed.
I had a terrible interview with a scammy "business". It was sketchy and terrifying. I reached out to family and friends and shared my location JIC something bad were to happen. But I was desperate and young so I didn't know better. Turns out, they were some type of MLM/Scam 🤢
my favourite is we found your profile and we believe you are a perfect fit for our products. and its a fucking goth brand. this is mostly for my cosplay page, where none of it is gothic, or its lingerie, which there is none of on my page
0:10 girl ME.
I stalk the Walmart and Burlington pj section cuz I'm just obsessed
YESSS! I loveee soft PJs! I need to find more 😂💕
Litterally this is one of the major reasons i have anxiety. Im terrified of being scammed like that girl who lost over 23,000
I like your videos. I find it hilarious that gigantic 1980s glasses are back in style
