There is someone posing as an employe on websites (craigslist).

Once you have filled out the 'application' the scammer has your personal information.

You will be emailed that you were hired.

You will recieve 4 Postal money orders with no instructions.

Usually in the amout of $700 or more, I took them to the bank and they said they were phony but to be on the safe side I took them to the post office.
The Post Office clerk said she sees them a lot lately. It's a scam. Rip them up and throw them away. -Counterfeit Postal Money Orders

Days later, you will recieve an email like this.



---------Scam * Scam * Scam * Scam * Scam * Scam-------------- Top Of The Day To You,
Please be informed that a payment was sent to you
Am sory this email came in a bit late. KINDLY DEDUCT 10% OF THE FUNDS WHICH IS YOUR COMMISSION..


Note: Upon receiving the PAYMENTS, FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND deposite them in your check cashing account with your financial BANK and get cash wired via western union to my new Account Clerk

Name: JAMES NELSON
ADDRESS: 12B LAMSON ROAD
LIVERPOOL
LV8 3AA
UNITED KINGDOM.
AMOUNT $

You are to send him rest of the funds after deducting your 10% and paying western union charges from my funds aswell.
Kindly get back to me with the MTCN number (money transfer control number) once funds have been sent out.

NO DELAYS PLEASE

Regards,

Collegegear_stores@yahoo.com.uk

---------scam * scam * scam * scam * scam * scam *-------------

The scammer called me this morning to see if Ihad deposited the counterfeit postal money orders into my bank account and I told them no because the post office told me they were phony.

They had the NERVE to call me.

When I said the money orders were counterfeit, she said "oh, ok, I'll send you all your money back" and hung up on me.

Internet is full of advertisers enticing people like you and me for data entry jobs, internet marketing, forum posting, and many more full time/part time money making opportunities. Due to ever growing popularity of online money making concept, a large number of devious websites have sprung up on the internet. Gullible people are most likely to fall prey to fast buck schemes and internet frauds. I would not write much on this aspect as there is lot of stuff available elsewhere on the internet. You must keep in mind that easy money and greed are the root causes of majority of internet scams.

They almost got me! I was looking for money gram locations on google when scam came up.. come to find out! I almost got tricked! That is the e-mail they sent me this morning. The check isnt here yet, I dont know what I should do it once it comes. I was kinda hoping it was an exception but from doing research the messages all say the same thing.

I got contacted by two ppl, and I contacted each one of them in case they knew each other. the two ppl who contacted me were named Michael Hamilton "Hiring Manager" and someone named Garry Roy. I emailed Hamilton with no response and and invalid phone number. When I emailed Garry, this is what i got:

hello, you can get back to me with the details of the MTCN and al u think i will need to get the money out.
roy

Hey Garry,
I just got an email from Michael Hamilton the hiring manager? Telling me to go to western union and that the money is already being sent. Should I forget about the money gram and Walmart? Or do I now have 3 assignments?

He didnt even address my questions. SMH SO glad i found this site because i already have credit cards to pay off and dont need to add 1,000 dollars or more to what i owe the bank lol :mrgreen:
