I too got an email from Independent Producers of America for a job interview with Rick Banville, Regional Vice President. I am glad I googled the name and checked this company out. I am looking for an honest job that does not require $285.00 or any kind of money up front. Anyway, I never worked as an "Account Executive" or had any kind of position like that. I am strictly a clerical/secretarial worker and expect the company to pay me, not me pay them! Glad for the info, I will avoid this scam and look for honest work.
