On October 21, 2011 an ad for employment was posted on Craigslist. I answered the ad the same day. On October 25, 2011 I was made an offer of employment. It was required of me to fill out an employment application, which required personal information about myself. I am worried at this point that my identity could be in jeopardy. After the offer of employment, he requested that I open a new email account in Yahoo in order to better chat. I did so, and it was at that point that he wanted me to post ads on Craigslist, using my phone number but put the accounts in his name. Then send him the password and sign on. I became suspicious at this point and told him I could do so without a phone number he provided. His responses stopped at that time. Below, I will copy and paste the email trails. They tell the story. -----Original Message-----
