The Cinturion Group Technical Writer Scam is going around again. If you have a resume on ZipRecruiter which has any kind of technical writing on it, you will get the email, or your spam filter will. SpamExperts caught mine which tells you just how long this has been going on.
No, it’s not unfair to mention ZipRecruiter. The email address they used is the one I have set up with ZipRecruiter. It is not the email on my resume. Only other place I use it is the marketing for this book.
It’s one of my older titles that seems to have caught the attention of re-publishing scams. Most likely this is the exact same group that was in my December 2025 post and it is highly probable the technical writer scams are being run by the same people as the book publishing scams. Why use an email address only once?
Common Playbook
The technical writer scams seem to all have a common playbook.
Offer a 100% remote gig with high pay rate. Note the gmail address. Legit companies don’t use gmail. Further down they actually did use a cinturiongroup.com email address. I visited what claims to be the official website. That’s where I screen scraped the featured image. At the bottom of the page was a “contact us” email for the sales department.
No legitimate company lets the email address for their sales department lapse. Those people have to weed through all of the shit emails because one could have money.
