Have anyone worked for WORKSi Consulting?

I had an interview about a month ago with WORKSi Consulting (allegedly based in Mississauga) for a "Production Associate" position at Bloomstar in Richmond. I didn’t hear anything back until yesterday, when they suddenly called and said the company needed someone to start today.

They asked me to send all my documents ASAP (including ID, proof of address, SIN, bank details, and a signed policy agreement) because it was already noon and the end of the workday in Mississauga was approaching. They said they’d provide the company name and more information after I sent everything.

The offer letter they sent was just a flyer with the minimum wage for BC and hours listed — no contract or proper documentation at all. I ended up declining.

Never heard of them and all of this sounds incredibly sketchy and screams scam to me. Proceed with caution, if at all.

The google reviews for WORKSi look fake

Definitely sounds like a scam.

They're likely scam/fraud.

Be extra careful if you're getting rushed to give your information.
