Report Summary: I received an unsolicited job offer claiming to be for a “Data Entry / CSR” role from a person identifying as Jonelle Wiley using the email address [email protected] and the phone number (609) 200-0326. The sender requested that I join a Zoom meeting to discuss the role. The company name given was “Gradwell Consulting,” but the domain and contact details do not correspond to any legitimate business. Multiple scam reports online reference this same email address, name, and job-offer template. Details: I received an unsolicited text/phone message offering me a Data Entry/CSR position. When I asked for more information, the sender emailed me from [email protected] . The message was generic, did not reference a specific job posting I applied to, and did not include a company address, website, or verifiable contact information. The email asked me to connect via Zoom immediately. The domain “gradwellconsult.com” does not match the legitimate company “Gradwell Consulting” (located in Australia), nor does it match Gradwell Communications in the UK. After searching online, I discovered multiple reports of identical job-offer scams using the same name and domain. No interview or screening took place — just an automatic “You’re selected” message. This matches active job-scam patterns involving fictitious employers impersonating real companies. What I Did: I did not give any personal information. I am reporting this to warn others and to see if this fraudulent activity is known to authorities.
