I joined sitter.com today to offer babysitting services. I received an inquiry moments into joining. The parent asked to meet me in person after giving me a long detailed understanding of the scope of work and the needs. The conversation took a turn when the person stated they needed help today because the personal assistant called in sick. They asked me to buy check paper and print a check that they would send through email to give me compensation and cover the errands they needed handled. I should not have responded to the post because they gave their phone number in a coded sequence in the initial message to me. I am reporting this full website as a scam because they do not offer legitimate means of communication and do not offer a full protocol for protecting members.
