I was called advocate for an organization called American Farm Workers. As the scammer approached from her own vehicle looking like a mess just as she was I would say, she was not in the proper attire to be a sort of advocate or representative for an organization, to say the least, well she started asking questions about my employment history. If I happened to be working, if I am unemployed, or even trying to seek work. I admitted to her that yes I was unemployed, and I will gladly take on the opportunity to start working a job. Well from there on out she started talking about what she does for her organization, which as she mentioned, she is somehow an advocate and she goes out to the public to recruit individuals for her organization, writes down their information, like name, birthdate, phone number, and email, and that also with a processing fee of $50. 00 she would utilize my information to network my portfolio as she said, to a variety of employers who are in the farming industry, lumbar industry, irrigation systems, and that she would would provide me with multiple listings of job openings, through my email, I agreed and and offered her my $50. 00 to receive the job listings and be included in an employment agreement. She proceeded to leave as soon as she could in her vehicle, and sped off. I anticipated and still waited patiently for the job listings promised, well time has passed by. I anticipated and still waited patiently for the job listings promised, well time has passed by and yet all she sent was via through text messages with illiterate and blurry pictures, and file attachments that didn't work or caused phone issues This cost me $50..
