WOODBURY — Gloucester County officials warned Wednesday of an apparent scam that targets online job seekers.

Authorities said someone posing as a representative of the "New Hampshire Job Match System" has requested banking information and other personal data from people who submitted resumes online.

"The scam tried to steal money from people who received fraudulent checks in exchange for sending personal bank information," the county said in a statement.

Among other tips, officials said people should never provide banking information without verifying the person with whom you are communicating.
