I had asked if office has a number and he gave me number with 215 (Philadelphia) area code. And I had just called and it rang and said this PERSON is not available right now leave a message...

Ahhh, I might have been too harsh on Tenn. What Ken quoted says 7 states of India. Do you plan to move?

You don't find it helpful that he pointed out that the "job offer" is in INDIA?

tloonya You said you googled the entire address and got nothing, so I googled the name of the organization and found that info. I thought you might be interested.

I've never heard of a job offer that states your hire date is the day of the interview - so they're going to pay you retroactively? Makes no sense.

I'm guessing no. My bet is, doesn't exist. They used the name of an actual organization to make it seem legit, and are phishing for people to give them personal info like SS numbers and such.

I had an interview for about an hour using google hangout (which as it appears is common practice nowadays). And I have a job offer now. So they want me to sign and email back. I am reluctant until someone will call me. They said today.

Anyone find it odd there is no street number in the address just a suite number (Randolph Drive, Suite 7800)? Randolph Drive is part of Randolph Street in Chicago Randolph Drive is a somewhat large portion of Randolph Street. "A lower level also exists between Stetson and Columbus, intersecting lower Columbus (and ramps to middle Columbus). The middle level East of Columbus Drive is known as Randolph Drive." Randolph Street (Chicago)

Loony, you are a scammer magnet, I think. And you make it so easy because you don't just delete the mail without opening. You not only open it, but respond!

The fact that the punctuation leaves something to be desired ought to tell you that this is a scam. It's not the worst I've seen, but it's still not good.
Also, a check of the IL Secretary of State's Office online indicates that they do not have a business filing in the state. The IL Hospital Association does not list them being in the state, either as a hospital or as a business entity. If they had purchased office space in the city, it would have been reported somewhere, usually in a business publication or the business section of the Chicago Tribune of the Sun-Times. No announcement of such a transaction exists anywhere.
Bottom line - I don't think they have an address in Chicago; that would explain the lack of a complete street address.
For heaven's sake, stop responding to the scammers! It's getting to the point where they are writing you name and email address on the virtual bathroom walls: "For a good time, contact TLoony at...."

I didn't check the IL Secretary of State's Office, but I did google "Care Hospitals Group" Chicago. There is such a group, but it is located on LaSalle Street. It shows up on several sites like Yellow Pages, etc. There is a phone number as well, Loony. Call (301) 966-3429 on Monday and ask for HR. They can probably help you determine if the guy who interviewed you really works for their company, or if it is a scam.

OK, I found that also, but again, no IL business listing with the state is a red flag for me. It's not that they have to have a filing in the state, but I get suspicious when they don't. And the LaSalle Street location is affiliated with the India group. And if I am reading this Bloomberg story right, the chain is actually owned by a U.S.-based private equity firm; as of last month, this firm is trying to sell the chain: www.bloomberg.com/research/stocks/news/article.asp?docKey=600-201511240001KRTRIB__BUSNEWS_55065_46172-1&ex=true&ticker=AIRM

If it's not a typo, then it would add another layer of ambiguity to the authenticity of the organization. The authenticity of the offer, however, would likely be unaffected as it would remain dubious.

Maybe it's made from alpaca.
Llamas are sheared like sheep, so it could be made from another llama without any harm to the creature at all (except, perhaps, to its dignity until its fur grows back).

Yeah, but it would be weird and all: "Heeeey, you like my jacket? It's the latest style. It's made from Frank in the next herd over. No, not made by Frank. Made from Frank."

I agree, it would seem weird. Though for all we know, that sort of thing could be perfectly normal and acceptable in llama culture.
In any event, the little jacket the llama is wearing is probably synthetic fleece. Synthetic fleece is quite cozy and easier to take care of than llama wool, especially since the llamas live outside. If I had a pet llama, I would make it little jackets of synthetic fleece. And matching hats.

That is not a job offer letter, is it? Its an email addressed to you and you've never even interviewed with these people. correct?
Real job offer letters come after you have been interviewed, gone through background checks, and you've been given a start date, agreed on salary, etc. Do you want to waste your time or are you trolling us?
