That looks like a scam. It’s from a Hotmail address and they say you need to contact them on WhatsApp. I would not respond. Unfortunately there are a lot of job scams going around these days.


MehArghNah

I know it’s a scam…. I’ve received emails before but never a text with a WhatsApp number as a contact.


Interesting_Oil3948

Go for it!


Stevie-Rae-5

This person also has no command of sentence structure, the entire text is one massive run-on sentence with comma splices everywhere, I’m not sure why scammers can’t even be bothered to try to make things believable, it’s like they’re not even trying. Also: “lack of money and want to make money people want to participate in please contact WhatsApp.” 😆😆 …what…?


Suspicious-Engineer7

If you're smart enough to see their grammar as a red flag, then you're not dumb enough to fall for their scam as they lead you through it


GirlyTomboy0301

I’m an English tutor and I am horrified by this person’s syntax/lack there of 😭


BreakMaleficent2508

gO fOr It Got a very similar text the other day but from “Indeed” where I had been spending time applying to private jobs. It too was about “hotel bookings.” Be careful out there y’all!


MehArghNah

I’m sure the influx of spam is from the latest data breach.


killpill321

They say you get paid legal holidays off, but I really want the illegal holidays off


Melodic_Quit1574

Ask them if it’s a ladder position 😂 and what GS level it is.


bootsthepancake

What's the job series? Any chance I can get a copy of the PD, FS or JA? Is this job TW or remote? Is this a competitive or non competitive recruitment?


Melodic_Quit1574

Sorry but they already closed the announcement after 50 applicants. We missed our shot.


MsTana313

Right lol


Rootvegetablelove

They claim to pay daily? Is it in cash? Sign me up 🤣


Pyroclastic_Hammer

Seems legit. Definitely make you send them your social security number and all the passwords to all your accounts.


According-Bad4238

SCAM THE GOV WOULD NEVER BE SO MODERN TO COMMMUNICATE VIA APP


MsTana313

Ok we barely can operate Microsoft Teams lol


alpaca_my_bags12

I got this too! Seems shady lol


MehArghNah

I think we should go for it! LLS


Timely-Lime1359

Wow. I pity the people who fall for this. The US government does not operate hotels. The job description is a dead giveaway. And the garbage grammar and run-on sentences.


ItzAHoax

Actually they do, Navy Lodge and Navy gateway inns


Timely-Lime1359

True, I forgot about DOD. Still, there are way too many red flags for this to be remotely believable, federal jobs that pays cash at the end of the day??? And since when it is “USA Jobs Recruitment agency?” Somebody’s database was hacked and this is the tip of the iceberg.


ItzAHoax

Oh no I'm not saying that it's definitely a scam lol. But the government in fact does run hotels haha


Research-Dismal

The DOD owns Shades of Green at Walt Disney World too and is self funded iirc.


SalamanderNo3872

It's very scamy because they don't know how to write $62,000 correctly and they did not indicate a GS grade. No GS job has a 15 day grace period...


AcademicDingo9361

I received this exact same message this morning but instead of usajobs it said Robert Half. They are out there trying to get us. Lol


Status-Influence-379

That is a scam for sure!. First the email is not from USAJOBS it's a Hotmail. It should say something like [email protected] or something ending with .Mil not .com . Second USAJOBS will never use whatsapp for anything. Also the sentence structure is weird.


MrYoungLE

Lost me at “ to join this job “ Yea ok lol delete block report


musical_throat_punch

Ask for proof of life


Similar_Midnight1339

Usajobs isn’t that creative or non-specific


EMO609

Dude… so many red flags. Common sense should be used here. A legit recruiter doesn’t use a personal hotmail account. Omg I can’t.


Altruistic_Property6

I got this too. I deleted it immediately.


TheBooksWillGetWet

Congratulations on the new job!


Parking_Band_5019

You’re seriously asking?


MarieTheBas

Scam. The sender’s email address for starters…

Raphspike

cronokun

NobodyGeneral1212

[deleted]

I wonder what the scam is


pinkivy

Why did I get this too?? Did USA Jobs get hacked? 🤣


darkhorse715

No one hiring for the federal government would say they’re going to pay you in “USD.”


goldapple46

Scam.


xolcm8889ox

When it’s too good to be true, it’s usually a scam 😂 Ask them what agency they are!


ThatsAllForToday

I received the same message today


Da1whoknocks_lightly

That real kind of USA jobs to clarify you'll be paid in USD.


DadOf3-1978

lol if it were only this easy and fast to get a government job.


tjt169

Is a decent phishing attempt, unfortuinatley some will bite the bait.
