    not recently, but I did interrogate someone on an fb post looking for drivers. the text is odd to me because he called me Rich instead of by my full legal name.

    Yes if you're looking at a job with US Express he should have called you by your real name, poor.

    It is legit, most likely.

    BTW, you have two facebook messages and you need to charge your phone.

    Its basically a cold call/text to see if you bite, definitely legit.
    He called you Rich to seem more personable.


    If you're worth anything (years exp.) block the number or say ya not interested.
    Im guessing he sent off 100s of those texts this week.
