It looks like a scam to me with the Yaron guy spoofing as being employed by that company. You could email him back and see what he has to say just to be sure. Don't fall for any of the "send us $$ or do this credit check" scam stuff. Let us know what you find out! icon_biggrin

here is the second email after a reply from me.....

thank you for your response, I am the Internal Auditor of
Hoffman Medical Equipment INC I would like to say a few words about our company and the
Charitable Foundation

COMPANY DETAILS
Our Company was founded in 1995 in Israel; Hoffman Medical is
one of the largest medical equipment selling companies to millions of our customers
- businesses, hospitals, groups and individuals.
Our logo is a trusted symbol of dependability. In 2004 we have founded the Charitable Foundation -
"Who, if not I?" dedicated to substantially improving the lives of the poorest of the poor through the
delivery of different medical equipments for developmental assistance of medical care and donation payments
working towards creating a more peaceful world.
Hoffman Medical International needs a responsible, honest, self
motivated and reliable individual to work for the company as our
Representative in USA.
You don't need to have an office and this certainly will not
disturb any form of work you have going at the moment.

Also you can visit our website- http://hoffmanmed.com

JOB DESCRIPTION,
You don't have to pay any fees to get this job.
Because of the today's situation with charity, there is a vacancy
to be filled in our company; the job opening is that of a Representative
within the US. This opening will help our company with distribution of donations payments.
We have many clients in the USA who buy our products.
Also we cooperate with many US companies (our sponsors and investors)
who help us with development of our company and render the huge help to our charitable foundation.
Before, we didn't have any problems with getting payments from our US customers and partners,
As a charitable organization, Hoffman Medical Equipment INC is tax-exempt so we didn't pay any taxes from donation payments.
But not long ago in Israel there was a new tax law and we should pay the tax from any payments
(not only customers payments but donations payments also) which we accept from the USA.
Secondly we cannot cash our partner's payments from
the US soon enough, as international checks take about 15 working days for
cash to be made available here in Israel. We lose very much money each
month because we have money transfer delays.
And so in order to solve this
problem we have decided to open this new
job position. This job is legal according to the U.S. legislation as it is
today. Local money transfers take barely a few hours,
so it will give us a
possibility to send the donation payments almost immediately.

Requirements:
– computer with e-mail;
– USA resident;
– Adult people only (we cannot hire people who don't reach the adult edge);
– 2-3 hours free during the week
– banking account (if possible) to receive the donation payments;
– scanned photo (fax is possible);
You'll have a lot of free time doing another job; you'll get good income and
a regular job. This job is very challenging and you should understand it. We
are looking only for the worker who satisfies
our requirements and will be an earnest assistant.

PAYMENT AND SALARY:
Initial salary : we offer the commission in 10 percent for every transfer

WORKING HOURS

This depends of how many donation payments you will receive but it won't take more than
5 - 8 hours per week.

Please let me know if you are still interested and I will forward you a copy of the contract.
Be free to ask me any questions.
Looking forward to your response,
Sincerely,
Yaron Alexenberg,
Internal Auditor
Hoffman Medical Equipment INC
Total Scam. Don't fall for it.

Just for laughs, I went to the website and it's nothing but a 'shell' with a graphic montage of 'medical' scenarios in sort of a power point presetation. Clicking on the various links goes nowhere except back to the original page.
Really bad when they request that they want to run 'donations' through YOUR bank account.
Yes, Ducky. That is a scam. icon_frown

I am entering the following.... scam?? I cannot find the company anywhere in the internet. I did google her name and it was flagged for craigslist scamming in purchasing some wedding dress... anywho I responded asking her for confirmation of interviews and company info... no word as of yet. :( I was a dummy and fell for the Bruce Zailo & Joyce Madison... fortunately no virus has been found on my computer, but I hate that I entered my info for Bruce Zailo on the link he provided which directed me to Equifax.

Any suggestions???????

Thanks everyone! icon_smile
These particular scammers are abusing the affiliate programs of the credit report sites; they get a percentage of the fees collected from people they refer. Unfortunately, the only way they can get referrals is by dangling the carrot of a fake job offer.
The craigslist scam warning that you used to click through to get to the job listings had a good suggestion: report the scamming affiliates to the credit sites and get their accounts nuked. When you go to the site that the scammer links to, look at the URL and you will find items like "aff_id" or "AFID" followed by a number. These are the ID numbers of the scam affiliates. Report them to the abuse emails of the sites in question.
WELL GIVEN ADVICE, Skam!!! icon_biggrin

It sounds like a scam to me...Everything in this email seems just too good to be true. Especially the line where it says "and also note that all phone numbers and contact form on our website are mainly for our customers/clients and not for employment purposes in order not to be disqualified so do not use it."

I am guessing it is probably a credit report scam. You email them back and they will give you the BS line about "Oh you have to get your credit report and bring it into your interview."

You could always email them and ask, just to be 101% sure. icon_smile
