In this blog, I aim to address an ongoing issue that recently impacted our company; along with many others. Scammers have begun creating fake Indeed accounts hoping to lure unsuspecting job seekers into sharing personal information like birthday, social security numbers, bank account information, etc.

Recently, Sierra Hills Roofing was targeted by these scammers, and a fake profile and job listing were created on Indeed. We reacted promptly, contacting Indeed and informing them that a fraudulent account was created and is contacting their users utilizing our business name. Even a fake website was created http://www.sierrahillsroofinginc.com, and emails linked to that website were being used to contact job seekers outside of Indeed’s secure network.

Indeed has removed the fraudulent profile, along with the fraudulent job posting. Google has also been contacted in order to flag the fake website. Local law enforcement has also been notified. If you were contacted by these scammers, the best thing you can do is to report it to Indeed Customer Service (1-800-475-4361) and discontinue all further communication with the scammers. These scammers are in no way affiliated with THE REAL Sierra Hills Roofing, and we are not currently seeking an employee for the role of “Supervisor Assistant”.
Throughout our communication efforts with Indeed, we were advised that Indeed strives for all communication to be made on their secure platform. These scammers tried to lure job seekers away from Indeed and communicate with them via email outside of the Indeed platform in order to collect personal information.

We at Sierra Hills Roofing value your privacy, personal information and basic human integrity. We would never ask a potential job seeker for information like this prior to a full in-person or virtual interview with the owners, and a signed offer letter of employment. We are incredibly troubled by the continuously growing methods of internet scams; and we are doing everything in our power to protect our company and champions of our company from falling victim to digital thievery.

If you have been contacted by someone posing as a representative of Sierra Hills Roofing, please do not share any personal information with them. This is a SCAM! You can contact us directly at 916-975-5095; or visit our LEGITIMATE website at http://www.sierrahillsroofing.com
