this sounds like the scam that my daughter inlaw started to get into, when they wanted her to send cash n take her income out of it did we figure out it was a scam!! the police were notified but the next week the add was there again ..it is a shame what people do .

SCAM...Check it out qith SNOPES or URBAN LEGENDS. DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY. They will send you bogus cheques from "customers" that you deposit to your account and you send them thier portion. Problem is, the cheques you deposited are not good ones and by the time the bank has notified you of that it is too late to recoup your money.

Stay away from this. It just screams scam. If they are wanting their companies to get money why can't they just send it to them?
|
PLEASE let us know your daughter did not fall for this -------------- wishing her the best.
|
sure sounds fishy to me, I get these kind of e mails alot, they are tagged scam in my files.

Scam!... My DD has been downsized at least 4 times in the last 3 yrs. She is done.. She has started finding small jobs here and there by word of month. Last month it was organizing a warehouse( she was in warehouse work for the other companies) for a guy who buys and sells from garage sales and storage units. She has a couple of cleaning jobs in apartments. She turnkeyed one of the other apartments in the house she lives in. She does her own hours and doesn't do to bad money wise. Little things that most people wouldn't think of doing. Pet sitting if she is into animals depending on her age of course.

Scam...........just the improper use of English would raise alarms for me, but as bubble951 points out there is no business name or contact address. BIG red flag.
|
Yes, it is a SCAM.
