Has anyone heard of a company called TPJS. I sent them a resume, they responded with an offer of a job. They sent a form to be filled out for a background check. They said they need $25 for the background check to be completed. I have never had a background check ran for a job. Does anyone know if you pay for a background check, or is this just a scam? TIA!

Thanks, I think I will pass on this job offer!
ADMINISTRATOR and others regarding TPJS
I just thought I would let you and others know about a job that is posted on the job board. It was a ACUTE CARE MTS/EDITOR position that offer hourly wages. To me this sounds like a BIG SCAM. They send you an email stating that they are delighted to offer you a transcription position within a certain hourly range but then as you read further it states Please remit $25.00 for your independent contractor background check. We accept credit cards, debit cards, money orders, money grams and cashier checks as a form of payment.
Please note: We do not accept personal check. They go by the company name of Telecommuting Personnel Job Services or TPJS, Inc.
The ad never had the companies name in it as well.
I would think that if a company wants to hire you and do a background check that they would pay for it!
Do you think this sounds like a SCAM??
