Home-based job offer-email fraud
This one almost slipped by me. The url seemed legit. I looked up the company name and everything seemed to match. My mind must be starting to go because I didn’t notice that the email linked to a site ending in .us and the real company’s url ends in .com
After some searching on the ‘net, it appears that this one is just one of those old fraudulent check cashing scams or Western Union money scams. One where they will “overpay” you and request you wire them the balance back. By the time the check you received bounces, the money you wired is long gone.
As always, be careful and investigate.

Thanks for sharing Luis. Nice to know some scammer has my name.
lol
It’s just such a shame that there is so much garbage on the ‘net and especially on sites like craigslist, monster, etc. where so many people are trying to find something legit to make some money.
@Luis Melendez
just on an added note, this is the number I got the text from 92602…lol this is yahoo messenger number.. Now ask yourself why go through all that trouble in finding someone fast for a position that requires time, patience, and attention to detail?? Watch out for scammers, please
I came across this today, I answered a job ad on Craigslist, the add was for a part-time work in accounting.
So I sent a message asking for more information, the only thing that I put on there was my Name, cell number, and e-mail address.
Hours later I receive a text message from chrisflavour90:
” I am chris Bailey from DLA piper LLP US please tell me if yyou are still interested in the Payroll position before i attend to another candidate”
I replied ” Yes, I need to speak with you.”
chrisflavour90:
” I am chris Bailey from DLA piper LLP US please tell me if yyou are still interested in the Payroll position before i attend to another candidate”
chrisflavour90:
“Okay good i just gave the company name and the position is payroll in which you will be working from home”
chrisflavour90:
“Are you still with me?”
chrisflavour90:
“ima deaf and mute mouthed person so i will use the realy to call now or can we chat on yahoo messenger?”
I reply:
“Im not stupid go away this smells like a scam.”
chrisflavour90:
“go fuck yourself. how dare you call me scam”
I reply:
“Whatever scam.”
************
So my point is that this person refused to speak over the phone, refused to give company info like phone number, address, e-mail.
Basically if it is too good to be true it is NOT. Please people don’t fall pray to scams like these, investigate, ask questiosn, and look for patterns in their behaviour. Always ask for company information, contact info, do the formal thing of meeting for an interview, etc.
Find as much about the employer as they do about the interviewe. Take care out there!
