Is Crumbly Town Software a Scam?

Question

Answer 1 · August 12, 2020

Hey guys. I also got the same offer, with no interview from Amanda Werner.

Had a feeling it was a scam so did some digging and got street views of addresses and noticed the same thing, it was in a weird strip plaza.

One of the other things I found while researching

https://opencorporates.com/companies/us_nc/1565358

It is registered in this guys name. Found his Facebook, now I’m not to sure if maybe someone else is using the company name for a scam or if he is the scam creator.

Answer 2 · August 12, 2020

That guy looks legit, his Facebook profile was created in 2012. It might be that he registered a company and these guys just stole the name and made it look like it's the same one.

Have you tried sending the guy a quick message letting him know that somebody is using his registered name for a SCAM?

Answer 3 · August 11, 2020

Yes, big scam. Applied for the job got hired with no interview. The website is full of errors, the telephone number doesn't lead to a real person, the address is a strip mall that they do not seem to work out of, they have some fake LinkedIn profiles up and have registered their business name but I can't find any other information on any of the people who "hired" me, the president, these other "employees" that work there. They are ghosts on the internet. When I asked the person who hired me to give me her number to contact her to answer some questions about the job she stopped replying to me. 100% scam

Answer 4 · August 11, 2020

Just got the offers! This is a big-time scam. What a waste of time and energy!

Answer 5 · August 10, 2020

Just to summarize what's been found on this thread:

> Site is a SCAM, they are collecting credit card information via this link: https://www.crumblysoftware.com/expenses/

> Their domain name (.com site) is a copy of this company: https://milliontech.com/ which is based on Hong Kong. Just compare these two pages:

Legitimate: https://milliontech.com/solutions/rfid/

Crumbly (Fake): https://crumblysoftware.com/solutions/rfid/index.html

> If you google maps their addresses you'll see a Dollar Store.

> What to do next? Let's report them..

- Report them to their domain host so they are taken down by sending an email to abuse@namecheap.com and letting them know that crumblysoftware.com is collecting credit card info

- Report them to Angel Lists as a fake startup://angel.co/company/crumbly-town-software

- Report them to the BBB https://www.bbb.org/us/nc/mount-olive/profile/computer-software/crumbly-town-software-llc-0593-90327819

- Leave a review telling everybody this is a scam here https://www.serchen.com/company/crumbly-town-software-llc/

- Maybe also contact MillionTech and let them know somebody just copied their site for this scam: https://milliontech.com/contact-us/

Let's prevent these people from scamming any more job seekers. It only takes a quick review or a quick email.

Answer 6 · August 10, 2020

totally got a job offer as well... I said before I sign I want to set up a phone call to answer questions...its been a week and never heard back

their posting on indeed was taken down immediately after I applied

Answer 7 · August 10, 2020

This is 100% a scam. I've tried to call this "company" multiple times and it just says that all their representatives are busy. I also filled out the employment agreement (without sending ID) and this was their response:

"

I've received your signed Employment Agreement, thank you.

While processing your job you'll have expenses that are paid in advance by billpay system.

Please fill in this form [www.crumblysoftware.com/expenses]www.crumblysoftware.com/expenses You will use your credit card to receive the reimbursement.

It's preferable to use TD Bank or Scotia Bank. If you use any other bank, please, let me know.

Sincerely,

Amanda Werner

Development Manager

Crumbly Town Software LLC."

No company needs your credit card. 100% a scam

Answer 9 · August 7, 2020

Same with me.

I emailed this AMANDA some questions and didn't get a response yet. the questions were like this...

Under Job Title and Description, points 2 and 3. Does this mean I need to travel to other institutions for what purpose? And as for courier duties, What courier duties does it mean? Will the company send me something and I need to travel to deliver whatever that is sent to me?

Thank you,

Answer 10 · August 10, 2020

Did you ever hear back from them? Just curious

Answer 11 · August 8, 2020

Same when I finally asked for more detailed information I was told this Amanda girl would call, still no call and before was very responsive

Answer 12 · August 8, 2020

Same! I had these same questions and now waiting on a response as welll. This does seem sketchy to me.

Answer 13 · August 7, 2020

You were also offered support assistant job? 26$ per hour

Answer 14 · August 8, 2020

I was offered a job, no interview or anything. Is this a scam?

Answer 15 · August 11, 2020

100% scam. Had the same happen to me

Answer 16 · August 7, 2020

Same here got an offer, I was almost about to fall into their trap. Check there address on Google map and try to see the street view and you will be surprised to see there are only a few general stores but no company exists at that address.

Answer 17 · August 7, 2020

I received a job offer too, no interview or elaboration of the role. From a gal named Amanda. Very generic, impersonal emails. Had a gut feeling about it being sketchy and I will be sticking to my gut and not pursuing it.

Answer 18 · August 7, 2020

I got the same offer they did not requested an interview only sent the Job agreement (Seems like Scam)

Answer 19 · August 7, 2020

I got the job offer without an interview too. They did ask for pictures of 2 ID's

Answer 20 · August 7, 2020

Can someone’s clarify this is a scam.

Answer 21 · August 11, 2020

Sounds like a credit card scam. They will hire you then ask you to sign a contract and ask for pieces of ID. After you do all that then that's when they'll ask you to set up your credit information into their online program to prepay for company stuff. Something like that. I didn't even open the contract agreement as by this point I knew it was a scam but others have said its a credit card scam.

Answer 22 · August 7, 2020

I would like to know as well as I have been offered a position..

its a scam. 100% just ignore it

Answer 24 · August 7, 2020

I was offered a position without an interview. I sent an email response asking about the “tasks” I would have to do locally as part of the job description. I said I’d like to know what they were before committing. I just got a response that says “You will process it online from home”. And that’s it. Weird vibes for sure.

Answer 27 · August 7, 2020

I got the job offer without an interview too. Not exactly sure what the angle is because they haven't asked for any specific info (bank info or SIN), but I am pretty sure this is not legit.

Answer 28 · August 7, 2020

Me too and I was wondering the same thing... sounds like a scam.

Answer 29 · August 7, 2020

I also got a job offer today I was very skeptical and believe it is a scam.

Answer 30 · August 7, 2020

Hey guys, it seems that their website is a copy of this one milliontech.com/contact-us

They even use the same logo.

Also if you do an ICANN lookup and search for their domain name you'll see crumblysoftwate.com was created in July 2020.

Milliontech.com has been registered online since 1999. So it seems this is the legit one.

You can try looking them up here https://lookup.icann.org/lookup

What do you think?

Answer 31 · August 7, 2020

thanks for doing more checking.

I tried to search up the address on google maps and got a dollar store.

Answer 32 · August 7, 2020

Answer 37 · August 6, 2020

This is a fraud company giving out people job offers, they are running a job scam, please don't fall into their trap.

Answer 38 · August 7, 2020

How do you know?

Answer 39 · August 11, 2020

The website has spelling and grammatical errors, address leads to a strip mall that they clearly do not work out of, telephone number leads to a recording in which you hold for no one to ever come to the phone, the poster, job manager, and president all don't exist online anywhere else, and they have fake LinkedIn profiles of employees who also don't exist anywhere else online. Their domain was online created a few months ago. When I asked "Amanda" to contact me to discuss the position I no longer heard from her anymore.
