GOSH! I am a victim as well I Have devoted over 40 hours of time preparing PowerPoint presentations. I was looking forward to a check the first week of Jan. I have even not gone on job interviews thinking that this was a perfect job. I have told my family and friends how exciting this new career opportunity is. HAS ANYONE EVER GOTTEN PAID FROM New Generation Student Center??? Please let me know. Something has to be done about this....

Disappointed, thanks for posting. Find the other thread on this fake company here :
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=93539&hilit=Generation+Student read through it, completely. This is a not a real company, it is a fraudulent operation.

If you have used the USPS mail system to send packages, I'd strongly suggest you find your local Postal Inspector's office, take all of your emails with these (fake) companies, and even this thread printed out with you, and report it. Find your local PI's office here : https://ribbs.usps.gov/locators/find-is.cfm

If you have used other shipping companies, alert their fraud departments as well. Taking those steps will help show you are a victim in this scam, not a conspirator. https://postalinspectors.uspis.gov/radD ... sMain.html

It is highly unlikely you will be paid anything for the "work" you've done. It is even less likely you will be able to find these criminals to sue them for your wages. At this point in time you'd probably be better off focusing on protecting yourself than worrying about missing money.

It is much more likely that you will be charged with a criminal offense if you do not report it to the Postal Inspector or other fraud departments of the private shippers you have used to ship packages with.

I believe this company has a new site called SCIP to scam more people looking for employment. They sent out exactly the same email and job descriptions!!! can't believe it!!

The site is: http://www.sevecciprogram.com the domain is only 1 month old, and registered for only one year.

I applied for this job 10 days in prior to my acceptance of the position, and there is no interview at all, not even phone interview. After my confirmation of interest in this job, was required to fill out employment agreement and registration forms, but nothing related to my bank or credit card info. then I waited for 2 days for security check and finally approved for probation.

I got very suspicious in the very beginning because I will get paid extremely high even for the probation period, and the recruiter's English grammar is horrible, even a second-language learner can tell the very obvious grammar errors. Then I was asked to sign in Yahoo Messenger to keep track of my working hours, not sure how and why it should work.

As soon as I got accepted, I was required to make PowerPoint Presentation Slides due in couple of days, and I was also asked if I have a printer at home or copy center and post office near my place, and whether I need gas coverage for the travel.

Anyway, I didn't expect this job to be real since it's TOO GOOD TO BE REAL! And I am glad that I found something here to prove my assumption true.

SO, how do I report this scam site?

I just had the same experience. I found this job on ZipApply/ZipRecruiter and was offered the position. The job posting listed the company name as CE Foundation but no link to their website. In the email, they referred to themselves as the "Canadian Education Exchange Foundation". The email address use is [email protected] which is a site that looks decent enough. Now, there is a legitimate company called the "Canadian Education Exchange Foundation" who's website is ceef.ca. It is a vetted foundation which has operated for many years. I called the legitimate organization and I had a lengthy discussion with a very pleasant woman that they've been getting calls for the past 2 weeks about this and others have mentioned the name 'Peter Nilson' and they have forwarded all this to the anti-fraud unit as well as the police. The job and 'CE Foundation" is fake. She asked me for more details and I explained how I found the job on ZipApply and all of the details I could provide so that the legitimate organization knew how to deal with it and update the police. I confronted this 'employer' on Yahoo Messenger (which is what he wanted to use to keep in touch) and as soon as I asked when I would fill out a TD1 he went offline. I called and he's not answering his number. I should also mention he tried to call me twice on both my mobile phone and landline as well as Yahoo but disconnected almost immediately each time saying he was having connectivity issues.

It's not clear what this scammer is for. I'm thinking one of four things, either: (1) they want to have work done for them for free (no intention of paying), (2) they will say you're doing a great job after several weeks and ask for your bank info so they can 'send you the money' and then scam you that way, (3)fishing students looking for a real exchange and have them pay money and then never offer the services or (4) could be some large identity scam. Crazy.

Bottom line- the old adage holds true: if it's too good to be true, it probably is. If you think something isn't right, question it. If you know some legal details is being omitted, bring it up.

I'm sorry to anyone who has been caught up in this as I have. I have contacted ZipApply about the job posting and hopefully they will remove and investigate it so that others don't fall victim. I suggest anyone who has found a similar posting on other sites and have found it to be fraudulent, to report it as well. The stress from this has prevented me from sleeping for a few nights so on that note I will try to get some sleep; sorry if my post was incoherent. Good luck to everyone looking for jobs, it's a brutal market.

Yes, I spent days and days looking up online, and finally today I saw something helpful here, and I already stopped working for them.
Is there anyway that I can report them to police? online? or police station?
