Reminds me of that guy from Sweden(?) who HIRED more than 100 people to a non-existing company. Best scam ever, because it is so stupid, and hard to understand

- tpmx 4y agoThis story from four months ago? https://metro.co.uk/2022/02/21/jobfished-bbc-doc-on-madbird-unveils-employees-swindled-into-fake-company-16143538/ https://metro.co.uk/2022/02/21/jobfished-bbc-doc-on-madbird-... (It was the UK.)
- AtNightWeCode 4y agoThis was 5-10 years ago. I can’t find an article now, but the dude was a scammer. He did things like eating at restaurants and leaving without paying. Then for some reason he made up this fake warehouse company with fake clients. He built an office, he even hired his fiancé and then hired 100+ workers. The scam was revealed the first workday for the workers. The location given was another warehouse company that were rather surprised to see all the people at the gates.
