I answered this ad in the Chicago Sun-Times Help Wanted section friday: "General Asst. Managers Up To $15/Hr. No Exp Nec. Must be 18 or older to start". I called the phone # they gave; I didn't post it here because I don't know if Yahoo! Answers has rules against posting phone numbers. The first thing that struck me as odd was that they answered the phone with "hello", instead of "such & such business, how can I help you" or something like that. Then they said the job has something to do with self-improvement products and setting up seminars, and that I'd be paid up to $15 an hour during training. The lady said to bring to the interview: a resume, references, 2 forms of I.D. (all standard), but then said that if I get approved after the interview, they need a $50 deposit for "training materials". She said the company is called MP Enterprises which I couldn't find anything on the internet about, something about O.Y.M.U. which I think she said was what the seminars would be about. Couldn't find anything about that either, nor could I find anything by Googling the phone number. I also tried calling the # today (saturday) to see if they have an answering machine and they don't; it just kept ringing and ringing, also not a sign of it being a legitimate business. I have an appointment for Monday at Noon for the interview. I want to believe it is legit because it sounds like an interesting job and good pay and I really need the money right now (collecting unemployment and have a car payment and rent), but it doesn't sound like it is legit. What would you do? Would you go to the interview and see what it's all about? Or not even bother to show up?
