I received a text from this phone number from someone named Mrs. Claudia Thomas asking me download yahoo messenger and add her in the to my buddy list in messenger. She stated that she reviewed my reuse through workforce website and she wanted to interview me. After a couple of more questions, it started to sound fishy to me so I contacted my local workforce office and they said this was a scam.

Just received a text message from 336-364-5838 from a Claudia Thomas who listed my WHOLE freaking name (First Middle and Last). Stating she reviewed my resume on caljobs.gov and that I have been scheduled for an online interview to discuss more about the position.

The caller congratulates you on your job application - the one you posted in Craigslist or some other job application site - being accepted. Sometimes they ask for a fee. Sometimes they will send you a check as an "advance payment". All you have to do is reply, and send them a lot of personal information. Now the bad part: the scammer can use that personal information to steal your identity. Any "fee" you send will soon disappear. The check they might have sent will bounce. There are several variations to this scam.
