So I just got scammed by this person today. This has never happened to me and I am glad I thought to Google this. I am pretty shaken up because I was gullible and sent them my address.. I haven't had any income in awhile so I was excited and let it get the best of me. Should I be concerned? What should I do? I am very fearful due to them having my address and phone information.

Thank you for posting and I'm sorry you were scammed.

There's not much they can do with your address and phone number, however, the could pass your phone number on or sell it. You may get some shady phone calls, but more than likely, if you just ignore them they will eventually stop and move on to their next victim. Just don't respond, block any strange phone numbers and never accept a job without a face-to-face interview.

Same person using this email '[email protected]' for the babysitting scam is also trying to scam pet sitters. Got an offer from this person today who also wanted my full resume even though my profile had all relevant information for the job. This scammer is also using the number: 404.448.2278
