There was a scam going where they would offer for someone to apply for a role and use that good candidates clean information to get it v they would do the work and split the pay with the person who’s info they used.
In exchange that person would get “job experience”, the perks of WFH, and the ability to hold down more than one of these figurehead jobs simultaneously.
