BEACON FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Scammer reached out as a recruiter for a staffing firm. Asked if I was interested in a position at [a specific company that fit my job experience; I was searching for a new job]. If interested, I was to reply "Open." Scammer then supplied the job description and asked for my resume. Upon receipt of resume, asked if I had the resume professionally reviewed and optimized. Long story short, he connected me via a Microsoft Teams link to a "professional resume writer." My gut told me this wasn't legit after several Teams interactions with the resume writer. Both recruiter and resume writer have LinkedIn profiles that look to be believable, but the recruiter's email was a gmail account versus a company.com account. And the writer messaged me for the project deposit to be paid via an account transfer. When I declined, he offered I pay via Upwork. (I researched, it is a conceivably legitimate platform for freelance workers...?) I declined; multiple added fees to the agreed upon project cost. I continued to be suspicious, yet hopeful. Ultimately recognized that the amount of time and effort I was putting into the process was skeptical and supported my initial gut feeling of whether or not the solicitation was legitimate.

I received a call from what initially was said to be Beacon Travel and was told that I was chosen to receive either a 8 day 7 night resort stay or a 5 day 4 night cruise but I would need to do a 60 minute zoom meeting. I was then transferred to the "supervisor" to setup the zoom meeting. When that person came on the line she started asking how the othe person treated me and I said ok. She then went into the information about the vacation packages and zoom call. I asked her what company was she from and she stated Hawaii Vacations. I told her that the first person told me it was Beacon Travel and she stated that Beacon was the main company that Hawaii Vacations is under. I then told her that Beacon was listed on the BBB as a scam company who promises one thing and doesn't deliver what was originally stated and people have lost money. When I said this she hung up the phone on me. When I tried to call back the number they called me from which was listed as High Tech Telec on my caller ID, it went to a message of your call cannot be completed as dialed. I blocked the number on my phone. [BBB Scam Type: Travel/Vacation/Timeshare] [Business: Beacon Travel] [Location: IL, USA - 60417]

They called and offered a job to my wife. They told her she would get packages to the house and she would have to check and see if the packages are damaged. Once she checked them she would have to bring them to CVS, Walgreens places like that. They said she would work for a month with no pay as a probation period. Once that month was over she would get paid biweekly. She would make approximately 5600 a month. They would have a portal for her to log all of her packages and incident reports.

I was called for a seemingly fake job offer for a company that I can’t find any information about. A woman claiming to be a Latonya Ramirez called me with a logistics checker position at Beacon crate LLC. I’m not sure what they would’ve done with my personal information because they’ll never receive it, but the whole thing seems suspicious.

I received communication from someone claiming to be with a company called “Beacon Freight LLC.” They offered a job position with salary and bonuses and requested a copy of my driver’s license as part of the hiring process. After researching the company and the email domain ( [email protected] ), I discovered the business does not appear to exist. The individual called from a Kentucky area code (859). I believe this was a fake employer scam attempting to collect personal information. I want to report this so others are warned.
