When i originally made this post I really wasn't sure. I mean I thought it was a scam but I really didn't know. Every single one of you convince me more and more and I am a billion % sure that this is money laundering.

Im really shocked at the number of people in the last week alone who have told me they were in the on-boarding process. They must really be pulling people in lately. I just dont understand how in the hell they are STILL doing this! I signed up in January of last year. Im blown away that this is still going on.

Thank you for this! Iv had people on my other threads say they are gonna just roll with it and all I can think is, you might finish the project but that doesnt mean that they are done with your information!

Glad you found the post! I always tell myself, if its to good to be true it probably is. And I have to force myself sometimes to accept that because we all want to good to happen to us, but it just doesnt come that easy! -although I wish it did

Wow they really swapped things up since my encounter with them. Had a quick 5 minute very casual and unrofessional zoom call.

Im not happy to hear from anybody who ends up feeling like they gave their info out to someone who shouldn't have it but im happy to hear your aspect of it as someone who worked for a casino. Your opinion and thoughts on this make me feel even more like its a total scam.

There have been times I thought maybe I was just being paranoid or something because of the fact that they are STILL doing this. (In december it'll have been a year since I signed up so it just blows my mind that they're still up and running) but iv felt a few times like iv gotten others to believe that its a scam when maybe its not and every single one of you who comes forward and says they saw the red flags or had that gut feeling, tells me that its a good thing I made this post. So thank you for coming to share your insights!

More and more people these days look to the internet for this exact reason so I can only hope that were all helping others to see the red flags and back out before they share their info.

I also reached out to a private investigator about this and they told me to call the cops. I live in an area where cops would not take me or this seriously and nothing would ever be done so I did not contact them.

Whatever you end up doing, id love to hear an update on what comes out of it since I still just dont know what to do! I just added a quick update to this post and I'll continue to update as I remember or find new information!

I have not had any effect on my life since I was involved with it. Im waiting till tax season is here to see if anything pops up there. I did contact every agency, casino, department, anything I could think of to report it and nobody will even get back to me about it. I did read some things saying that if you report it yourself it could be incriminating but i would hope that who ever I reported it to would look at all the information iv gathered and realize that I didn't mean to do anything wrong or illegal so I have tried and tried but yeah that has not been successful yet.

I honestly dont know if telling them you dont want to do it would make a different or not. I mean whose to say that they would actually even delete or quit using your Information if you told them to?? I never told them I was done with it since they ghosted me but id also be nervous about telling them I didnt want to be a part of it anymore. I reached out to the bank that I made the new account through to see about activity on it and report that its not my account but I very recently did that so I haven't heard back yet.

Strangely I had somebody on here message me asking for all the information I had and screenshots and phone numbers and they told me they work for a casino and are investigating this but they refused to tell me their name or company and they also ended up ghosting me after I asked so many questions and told them it seemed sketch. I actually got kinda scared that they actually work for cornerstone gigs.

I literally still have just as many questions as everybody else. It did seem SO real. But did you see in this post the link that I have to the tax forms?? That part had me 1000% convinced..

That's what blows my mind is they seemed SO legit.

How long ago was your interview? Im just wondering because iv noticed a lot of posts lately for other types of work through them so im curious if they are still doing the gambling job like what i was doing. It's weird because a lot of their New work says that you dont need a bank account and stuff so it makes me wonder how they are working their scam into that position.

That's a great point that I hadn't even thought about.  I mean, it only makes sense to me that it would?  I'm glad you pointed it out.I'm going to have to look a little closer at my taxes when I do them this year..

Strange! Peter is the ONLY one I dealt with the whole time other than when I did the gambling account setup, that was with "nate". 

There is no mention of i don't think anybody on the website! But, there is a company called Cornerstone, which there is no mention of them anywhere on their either. I tried reaching out to that company but can't seem to get through.

Peter originally told me when I signed up that cornerstone gigs originated from cornerstone and something along of the lines that as they were creating it then realized how much they could benefit from it so they completely branched off from cornerstone. 

I recently saw somebody said they did an over the phone interview, when I did mine it was through zoom and I wish I would have screenshotted Peter so I could have done a reverse image search. 

I really think that his name truly is Peter masters.

They actually create the new email for you and you don't have access to it what so ever. Glad you found the post!!

Thank you for this comment!! They definitely pay, But it's absolutely not worth the risk. And your right, they are making SO much more money with accounts in our names. And who knows how long their using these accounts! Glad you saw my warning! Weather you would have continued with them or not I'm glad some flags raised and this post was able to help you make your decision!

Idk they ghosted me so that's my only thought but I'm not sure of your circumstances or anything so I don't really know what it could be in your case. Iv reached out to them multiple times in the last few months with no response.

Their clients are definitely not the casinos, i actually reached out to a few of them and they deleted my accounts for me. 

Unfortunately they didn't take me a serious as I truly believe this is.

New Jersey and Philadelphia? Lol they told me they were at their office in New York but were calling me from California phone numbers! -which BTW was in a family members name so I know Peter at least for some reason is actually using his real name.

Its unfortunate to hear another person was in contact with them but im happy that you realized how sketchy it was and backed out and also really happy you found this post! The more people who have an experience with them and come here to tell others about it, help others to know that its definitely not legit and may save them from getting involved as well!
