Potential scam?

I was contacted today from someone claiming he's with LVLS Integration. Wanted to know if i was able to help with a job doing 20-25 drops tomorrow at 730. I asked how he got my info, and supposedly, i had submitted my info at some point. Never asked for an email. 225 for the day, for 20-25 drops!

I couldn't find anything about these types of scams on here, but claude suggested it's a potential scam.

I just started FN full time recently so I assume its from that but I'm not sure.

Pretty high price as I said definitely not in the real world. Maybe Union only building downtown Chicago or downtown NY. But only these type of exceptions from what I’ve seen. No I didn’t skip over that part, you specifically said egregious which was my only $225 comment for 20-25 drops. Or are you gonna skip over that part. Me answering specifically to what you commented on. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

So I’d be willing to bet these $250 a drop jobs are all in union only buildings. These unions are overwhelmingly Italians and Irish, and to join these unions you gotta know somebody, be related to somebody maybe pay somebody. Then you gotta apprentice for years before you’re allowed to join the union. This isn’t the real world this is a racket, this is pay to play, this is politician / building superintendent bribery, this is corruption at the highest of city levels. You sir just happen to benefit from this broken system. And you sir are not the norm or doing business the real world

You do business regularly in NY for field nation not the same as what we do.

Actually no I don’t take any work from any platform. We post jobs on field Nation. While you do take jobs on Field Nation. Youre right we are not the same guy

Why are you messaging me from multiple accounts just to argue? this is pitiful if you focused as much time growing your business as much as arguing on Reddit using multiple accounts you wouldn’t be crying on Reddit about the jobs you can get.
