Default Scam?

I have a resume on find-a-pilot, and out of the blue I get a phone call from this guy wanting me to fly a KingAir. It was the weirdest phone interview ever. We would talk for about 10 min then he would he would have to answer and "important" phone call and said he would call me back. This happened three times friday. He was rather secretive about the company info but finally had me pull up the company website. The job seems like a great fit and the pay is right but something seemed off. So I started doing some research and what did I find... not a single thing... the only mention of this company is the website he referred me to. No phonebook listing, the address on the website actually belongs to The UPS Store. I cant find anything with that company name on the FAA website and the site eludes to charter operations while the info he gave me was purely a 91 operation. Thats a lot of red flags right? I'm hoping it all has a logical explanation and is not a scam!
