Earlier this year in March, I interviewed with a company that specializes in air-conditioning and also sells and constructs custom-made fireplaces for homes. I interviewed for the position as a graphic designer. Via e-mail, I was told that my portfolio website and design work was impressive by the hiring manager. I went in for an interview about a week later at the store. The store was very clean and professional and few customers were being helped. It was definitely a legitimate business. However, the manager I was supposed to be interviewing with was not available to interview with me on the set date. Instead, I interviewed with one of the other senior members of the staff that day. The interview went okay. I sent the company a follow-up email and they never responded. A few weeks later, the same email address which I had been speaking with the store manager was sending me a few spam messages advertising various pop-up ads. Today, I received a very informal email stating "sup get back to me i guarantee you will appreciate it later" from that same email address. No formality in this message at all. I emailed back saying "What is this in regards to?" It seemed really fishy seeing as this was definitely a professional established business.
