anyone heard of EA Worldwide Acquisitions Ltd. company?
I'm invited for a job interview, but i have found (internet forums) some people saying that it might be a scam. Any idea?

i did a quick google, and they appear to be offering you and others an opportunity to sell things from door to door.

I've seen it, but i found this one too

they claim to be one of the leading companies in marketing, and that it was founded in USA, but they dont even have .com site, which made me curious at the first time

Their marketing seems to be of the type that kirby cleaners made famous. You turn up at someones house with product samples, usually with someone else. The most effective sales will tend to be made to old, vulnerable people, as they are most likely to be at home, and most of the time have some form of savings. To my eternal shame, the company I work for employed a former kirby cleaner salesman, who also spent some part of his life scaring old people into buying security systems. He was very good at brow-beating people into doing things they didnt really want to do, just to get rid of him. He wasn't a very nice person.

Sounds nice.

i remember several years ago i got duped into an interview for a "marketing" company. i went in without a clue of what they do or what job i would of been expected to do.

i found out i would be doing the door to door scare salesman thing. i told them where they could shove their job and how hard they can shove it.

shouldn't do it, I couldn't do it and i wish people woundn't do it. it's wrong simple as that

I wont be knocking to your door as i didnt go to interview [;

Did you get the job?

er, he didn't go to the interview.

i like these items best when sold by some heavilly tatoo'd glue sniffer who greets you with "hi, i just got released after serving time for burglary an aggrevated assault and now i sell dish cloths... can i come in?"

And the funny thing is, they usually let me in.

Here door to door sales don't occur anymore. Now we have, much worse, 'phone terror'. Big companies call old people to sell them stuff they will never need and they will never be able to get rid of. Younger people are called less as they are less vulnerable for these sales tactics.

We get phone terror too. I keep getting automated messages telling me that i've won a prize. I hang up just in case they put me through to a premium rate number costing £1,350 a second.

Sending texts to people's house numbers can produce a similar effect; get the swearing/joke element in early though. I got cut off from a friend once and, as I knew he'd be by his house phone waiting for a call back, texted: "You have won a prize; it is a chairleg!" Unfortunately he hung up as soon as he heard the "You have won a prize" bit so it was a fail. It was a crap joke anyway.

It sucks when they call you 3 times at night to read the message:P

in the UK you can go on a list for a small fee that means cold callers are in breach of the law if they call your number. call centres all check their data against this list. if they call you after you are registered then they are liable for a hefty fine and you can sue them. once registered, you start to pray for a old call as a handy bonus payout.
