Dear Applicant,
Thanks for your prompt response,It is Very Easy and Simple with No Application fees required : Here's how It works - The basic premise of the "paid to drive" concept.
COCA COLA seeks people -- regular citizens, not professional drivers -- to go about their normal routine as they usually do, only with a big advert for "COCA-COLA " plastered on your car.The ads are typically vinyl decals, also known as "auto wraps," that almost seem to be painted on the vehicle, and which will cover any portion of your car's exterior surface.
What does the company get out of this type of ad strategy? Lots of exposure and awareness.The auto wraps tend to be colorful and eye-catching and attract lots of attention. Plus, it's a form of advertising with a captive audience,meaning people who are stuck in traffic and can't avoid seeing the wrapped car alongside them. This program will last for 3 months and the minimum period you can participate is 1 month.
You will be compensated with a $400 (four hundred dollars per Week),which is essentially a "rental" payment for letting our company use the space. COCA-COLA shall provide Experts that would handle the advert placing on your car.You will receive an up front payment of $400 (four hundred dollars) inform of check for accepting to carry this advert on your car and other weekly payments will also come in the form of checks and delivered at your address weekly.

So at this point I knew it was a scam and now after finding this website will be much more careful!!!! My question is though, is someone just going to show up and try and wrap my truck with some fake promo haha!!! I did not send him any ID. If someone does show up to my house what is the best way to get rid of them peacefully? |

you should be safe, just drop everyhting AND send no money or etc.
if they respond tell them you know it is a fraud and you are notifying the local anti fraud agency. |

ALSO if you still have the email and headers post them on Scam warners to warn others.
Actually it’s a fairly clever scam. |

I think their main premise is to send you a fake cheque for e.g $750 and you forward the remaining $350 via WU (after 'keeping' your original $400).
The cheque is flagged as fraudulent in 2 weeks or more, but you have sent them $350.
You are then $350 out of pocket.
Edit: You did well not to get scammed, as Buried says, it is quite clever.
You won't have any 6ft 6' Africans turning up with a roll of vinyl to put on your car either. |

That’s great,, I am guessing that no one will show up at your house. Also some bad news, since you have responded to them with your email, expect a whole bunch of “offers” to flood your email addy. That will probably be the worst part of this. |

Don't worry and just follow buried's advice.
Also, don't panic if some of these formats are tailored using your name and address. Lads will use anything they got to scam victims.
Just ignore them |

Glad to hear you figured it out before you sent any money.
Do stick around and join in the fun. There are all sorts of aspects to this amazing hobby/sport. Closing fake web sites or banks, romance baiting posing as a lonely heart, collecting piggies when you report a bank account that is being used to transfer money. All sorts.
I wouldn't lose any sleep about some scammer turning up at your house. They are among the laziest specimens imaginable and don't even kick backsides unless they are getting well paid for it. Even then, you'd need to send a chauffeur driven limo to pick them up and drop them back home.
Welcome aboard. |

Welcome to Eater!
You can post the original script in Surplus, and pick up another scam from Surplus to bait. Be sure to use an untraceable email address when baiting.
Btw, please snip the very long DKIM-Signature header, it causes "blowout" (the width is too big). The headers we need to find out where it came from are the Received and X-Originating-IP headers. |

Good Afternoon,How doing this Afternoon? The finance officer Just Confirmed that Your First pay check should get to you today, Once you recieve it, Deposit it in you account, Funds should be available within 1-2 days. Once the funds is available,you are to withdraw the funds from the deposited check. You are to deduct your first week pay which is $300. The remaining balance should be sent to the QDR specialist that would handle the decal advert wrap to be put on your car. You are to send the funds to them via Western union ( at any western union outlet ) this evening for fast and easy pick up of funds.You are to this this asap so arrangements would be made to wrap your car asap.You are entitled to deduct an extra $30 for gas in taking care of this. Here is the Specialist/experts handling the advert placement’s information in which you are to send the extra funds to :Name : Tina Perez Address: 290 St. Andrew LnCity: AkronState: OhioCountry ; USAZip code: 44310 You are to print or write this information and take it along to the western union outlet. Ensure you have the funds sent once it clears because the QDR Graphics Specialist had already contacted us earlier today concerning the funds and were told they would be getting their payment soon. This implies that they need the funds to make arrangements and as you know my time line is very flexible. Please make sure you send the funds out asap as the promo starts next week .After you have made the transfer,kindly get back to us with the following information: 1.TRANSFER REFERENCE NUMBER 2.ACTUAL AMOUNT SENT : 3.SENDER’S NAME and ADDRESS(if different from the one we already have) 4.Your convenient day and time for the car wraps NOTE : You are to deduct the Western union transfer charges from the extra funds with you . You are not to deduct it from your weekly pay nor you gas fee. When you carry out the instruction above, you must get back to us immediately so as to tell you your next step.Hope to hear from you asap.RegardsAlain Fredd |

Don't cash the cheque (check US spelling) although it may initially clear it will come back as a forgery probably after you have sent them back the $1,000 and you will have to cover the full amount of the cheque with your bank and could possibly be prosecuted for cashing a fake cheque.
Welcome to Eater and please don't post on old threads, make a new one. I might just get this in before a mod locks it
Great advice- Connie |
