Fraud Alert!

Viscient Bio has been alerted to the fact that one or more scammers are claiming to be offering jobs from Viscient Bio. If you get an offer from emails that have different endings than viscientbiosciences.com or viscientbio.com, these are not related to our company. Carlos does not work here and seems to be a scam alias.

We have alerted the FBI and given them the information we have. The FBI office in San Diego is very near our offices and they have taken a special interest since we see them sometimes at lunch spots, etc and know them a bit. We are deeply sorry for anyone getting their time wasted or worse by these hackers.

STAY SAFE OUT THERE!
