Warnings of Cyber Crimes on Job Websites

Via ABC7/KGO-TV News.

When Shoku-Faye Fadavi of Concord lost her job recently, she applied for state unemployment benefits.

"One of the steps was you had to go on CalJobs and post your resume there," said Fadavi.

The rule appears on the state's Web site, so Shoku-Faye complied. Three days later she got an e-mail from Corporate Evaluation Consultants, who had seen her resume and wanted to hire her as a "mystery shopper."

"That might be fun, let's see what it is," said Fadavi.

Shoku-Faye figured it was legit, since it came through the state-run Web site. So she went for it, and soon after, she got a check in the mail.
