I have not checked to see whether there is a real "Sunoco Oil Company", but this random scammer using a Yahoo! address does not represent them if they do. This is just another money mule scam (check fraud variant), as should be obvious from the job description and remuneration terms.

Job scam quick guide: it's a scam if...
- they want you to collect and forward money in any way (a "money mule" job). You'll wind up engaged in money laundering, personally defrauded via expertly forged cheques, money orders, etc, or defrauding someone else who pays for goods that never arrive.
- they want you to receive packages and reship them somewhere else. The goods will have been obtained fraudulently, and they're just using you to make the shipping address appear local. You will be aiding fraud.
- they want up-front payment (either to them or someone else) of any sort for anything before you can get the job. This is advance fee fraud: there is no job -- it's just a big con to extract money from you.
- they want you to buy any kind of "membership" or "kit" in order to start. Forget it -- it's not a real job at all: they're trying to sell you something, and they're probably making a bunch of other false claims about it if they're pitching it as a "job".
- it's a job offer, and it's spam. There are LOTS of these scams about, as you can see.

I too saw this. It is definately a scam, they some how get their checks to clear your account you wire them money and then their checks bounce. Because wire transfers are considered cash, once you send money it cannot be recovered. I saw it on tv, and these poor ordinary people ended up in jail and broke. Don't these job posters screen their listings?
The job advertising posts do not verify the legitimacy of the ads placed on them. Similarly, with regards to checks, the banks are required to let you draw on them after only a couple of days, but it can take them a whole month or thereabouts to verify that the check is legitimate. People just don't realise how little protection they are offered in these areas.
More of the same; new contact addresses (sunocogroup5@myway.com and sunoco6060@hotmail.com).

The job posting is SCAM please do not apply and give your personal information to them. Please visit the company's website http://www.sunoco.co.jp/english/index.html and click on WARNING link. Here you will find all the information about the FRAUD. They are SCAM SCAM and just SCAM. Thanks
well i fell for it and they sent me checks of almost 4K i didnt cash
lucky me.. i saw this site before proceeding to do so.
haha yea they sent me over 2000 dollars using wonco foods checks... so what the heck man
I cleaned them out for 97,000 and the checks cleared and I am rich!
Don't spend any of that money. The banks will want it back when the checks bounce. (Can a check bounce after it clears? You can count on it!)
Still scamming and spamming under this name.
