  Information
Name:
Unknown
Email Address:
cariduk@aol.com
This scam is disguised as a job offer. The aim is for you to receive bogus checks via postal mail, to cash them using your bank account, and then to send 90% of the cash via wire transfer to the scammers. You will be on the hook for the amount of the check, and the scammers will have your money.

Following are extracts from the email...


Your duties are:

-To receive payments from our customers which are mainly in form of checks
(only U.S. emitted checks, no international checks will be sent to you);
-Cashing the checks using your existing bank account;Do not use
checks-cashing stores, they charge too much, sometimes even 10% of the total
value of the checks.
-Forwarding as a money transfer that we pay for the remaining balance from
payments after deducting your 10% commission from each order you process.
.
.
.

What we need you to do is to provide us an
address where you can receive our customer checks. We need someone who can
receive the money through this method of payment. Regarding the check
process all you have to do is to receive the checks our customers will send
to your address, take them to your bank, cash them and send the remainder
amount to us after deducting all fees incurred and your commission.
.
.
.

Our payments will be issued out in your name and you can have
them cashed in your existing bank account, we don\'t accept newly created
bank accounts because it slows the cashing process. Deduct your percentage
and forward the balance to the company attorney manager via a western union
money transfer, the name will be given to you later after cashing a payment.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
