Scam

This is just a heads up so someone doesn't fall prey to these creeps. I had applied to a payroll clerk/data entry role and everything seemed on the up and up. Payment unverified, but hey maybe they hadn't gotten around to it yet, fine. I got a message back with a pdf of the following, prompting me to get on **Edited for Community Guidelines** claiming to be affiliated with **Edited for Community Guidelines**

It feels off to me; the 'hiring' account is **Edited for Community Guidelines** and I'd be willing to bet dollars to donuts that he's got other accounts as well.
