Robert Hernandez

Personal assistant position

sacramento, California, Robert Hernandez

I was looking for a job via Craigslist and came across an add for a personal assistant. I had to e-mail my resume and follow up with a few questions by the employer: Robert Hernandez. He said there were errands I would need to run for him and this is a home based job, due to his frequent travels. I'd be compensated $400 weekly for performing task such as: Shopping, running errands, typing letters, keeping track of finances, etc.... My first task was to go and buy some toys for the local foster homes. Rober would send me a certified company check to do this. I received another e-mail from Robert with the tracing number of the check and now I was to cash the check immediately, keep $400, then go to western union and send the remaining $3,050 to somobody in Texas. BULLSHIT!! I tried to call the number Robert called me from and it was fake. I asked if there was a number I could actually reach him at to speak to him, after all he was sending me a $3,450 check. I'd want to actually talk to the person I was trusting with that much money and alsousing as my personal assistant. He gave me another phone number, but stated he could not talk at the moment, he was in a conferrence meeting. I said if you can email me and text me from your meeting then you can step out for a minute. he assured me that I would speak to him soon, just complete my first task of cashing my check. I tried calling the second number he provided and it was also false! I replied to him that I won't cash anything until he actually calls me and answers a few questions. Needless to say, I have yet to hear from him. FAKE ASS!
