A Google search of "Technosila" turns up the following: Technosila currently operates 253 stores across 197 Russian regions.

I don't know who they are, what they do, or who is behind this job post, but it sure smells fishy to me.

I actually had filled out an application at career builder once, and the following day I had one of these in my email... by chance... as numb as I was, I called them. The dude asked me all kids of simple stuff and in many steps requested name, home address, age, social security number.

I told him no that would not be happening but said I would call him back.
Waited 5 hours and called again. Same guy. Discussed the job " oh it's a fortune 500 company and your duties will be relaxing" he would not say what the job (many of these scam companies do that.. say what it's like but not what it is).
So I gave him my name as Don Joe (lol) the address of the City police station here and a social security a digit or so adjusted from my own... why???? because it was easy to remember if quizzed..

lol

just wanted to share

Thought I was old enough and experienced enough not to fall for a scam like this. Really embarrased that it took me a month to finally wake up, but being unemployed for a long time I guess make you desperate. PLEASE DON'T FALL FOR THIS ONE. My contact was philip.technosila@gmail.com but O understand that other contacts to technosila are out there. Obviously not from the U.S., there english is awful and punctuation worse. All I cansay is "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me", wish there was a way too get what they owe me.
