Hello all,

First post Shocked

I just came across this site, looking into the job scam offers I have recently been deluged with. I knew they were scams from the start, but I wanted to see what others had to say about them.

Well, I came across here, and I just LOVE this concept. You folks have some great (and hilarious) ideas on how to deal with these scum. I would love to join your ranks, and I very much appreciate any advice and direction you can give me. However, I could only hope to reach the level of imagination that you all have shown! Rolling Eyes

Anyway, I wanted to copy the emails I received here for the following reasons:

1) As a complete clueless NOOB, I could not hope to try and lead on 8 scammers at a time, so if anyone wants to bait 'em, here they are.

2) I wanted advice as how to bait these type of scams, as they are a bit different than the normal 419 scams.

Note, that I believe that the bulk of these email's scams are to launder money and goods for stolen credit card purchases. I am of the understanding that once you are "employed", the scammers will use a stolen credit card from your area (in my case, a state as I'm a US citizen), to make a purchase of a liquitable item to be shipped to your address. You then are supposed to ship the ill-gotten item over seas, to the scammers. A similar thing happens with money distributions.

Note that I have NOT responded to any of these scammers, and I would use another email account if I could effectively bait them.

Anyhow, I really do appreciate the work you've done here, and would also appreciate your advice.

<<<<<<<<<BEATLESMANIA NOTE: this is an interesting one. They have a seemingly
legit website, until you look at their english (it's awful), and their credentials (their "partner)
certificates are awards for items completely unrelated to the stated "business"). Also
just try to figure out what they actually offer as a service.>>>>>>>

Hi Beatlesmania and welcome Very Happy

You are right these are all scams. Check scams.
The scammer will hire you to "bill his clients". The "client" will send you a check which you deposit in your bank account. The check clears, you keep 10% and sent the rest via Western Union to your new "boss".
The bank discovers the fraud, you are responsible for paying back the money and could sadly also face criminal charges for depositing the check.

Set yourself up with a gmail account, sign up for a mentor and bait the heck out of them. Very Happy
