What Kind of Scam is this?

I get the job and they ask me to send a deposit for the apartment they found to me or?

Don't send any money!

If they can afford to hire you then they can afford to get the housing for you and deduct it from your salary.

I say it is identity theft for the purpose of credit fraud. The last line should be a clear indication. How's Engrish the??

A similar ad was posted for CanadaPost. Surprisingly, a lot of people (applicants) quite easily remitted ALL the important information (SIN/SSN, drivers license, DOB, etc) even though the only thing that had CanadaPost's name on it was the logo. The rest was false.

They even placed ads in news papers.

Or they're part of money laundering scams: you facilitate banking transactions on behalf of others to clean their cash.

"Hurry up, this job opportunity is limited" is a dead giveaway.

They'll send you a check, to be deposited in your US bank account. They'll explain that they need US citizens to do so because of some restrictions. That will be your "job".

Then, they'll send you a phony check. Lets just say its for $10,000. They'll then ask you to deposit that check, and wire them $8,000 and the remaining 2 is yours to keep.

Sound familiar yet? Can you say...Nigeria?

Yep, definitely just another scam. It's truly amazing how many uninformed people there are out there who fall for stuff like this. Scammers get more and more creative and deceptive by the day and fuck more and more people over.
