Is This Employment Verification Call Legit?
Summary — +14082143434
Expert Opinion
Like a stranger tapping on your door, a call from +14082143434 often pretends to be an employment verification request. The pattern in the comments shows a mix of legitimate verification firms and questionable callers using broken English and aggressive data requests. If you receive such a call, don’t share personal details—especially SSN, DOB, or address—until you’ve independently confirmed the company’s identity. Hang up, look up the business on official sites, and call back using a known number rather than the one provided. Treat any unexpected verification request with healthy skepticism and document the call for future reference.

A request for employment verification was made, and despite the representative having a strong accent, the service appeared to be legitimate.
Upon answering, the caller's extremely poor English and thick accent rendered communication impossible, leading to an unprofessional and suspicious exchange.
A caller with limited English proficiency asked about a defunct company, and after being informed of the company's status, they inquired about my identity and title.

the number (408) 214-3434 is alot like this one
The caller claimed to be verifying employment, but the purpose of the call was unclear
The purpose of their call was to verify my previous workplace, but they were unprofessional and had difficulty speaking English; I had applied for a job, but I'm unsure why they contacted me.
The caller claimed to be from an employment verification company, seeking to confirm the employment status of a former employee, and provided a callback number and reference number for verification purposes
Despite the caller's claim of needing to verify my employment, I'm skeptical since I haven't applied for any new positions and have been with my current company for years.
Apparently, this is an employment verification service operated by Verifications Inc., which has since merged with another company. My suspicion grew when I received calls from out-of-area numbers. After conducting some research, I discovered that the callback number was associated with Verifications Inc. as far back as 2014. Given my familiarity with their employment verification process, I think a simple SSN search would be a more effective way to verify someone's work history. Personally, that's what I would do.

Firstly, the post being replied to is outdated, and secondly, it's important to verify the identity of the caller, especially when applying for a job, as numbers can be spoofed.
Thanks to these posts, I now understand that the employment verification people were behind the calls I received, which had previously left me unsure about the identity of the callers.
