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.

Global Source Fabrics And Textiles
15, route du Mesnil, 78990 Elancourt
Paris,France.
4th May 2007

Dear Sir/Madam,
Would you like to work online from Home/Temporarily and get paid
weekly? We are seeking to offer you a Job position with our reputable
company, Global Source Fabrics And Textiles. We need someone to work as a
Representative/Book keeper in AUSTRALIA,USA &New Zealand.This is in view of
our expansion program to AUSTRALIA,USA &New Zealand where we presently don't
have any office. You don't need to have an Office and this certainly
wont disturb any form of work you have going at the moment.Our integrated
yarn and fabric manufacturing operations use state-of-the-art textile
equipment from the world's leading suppliers. Order processing,
production monitoring and process flow are seamlessly integrated through a
company-wide computer network.
* The average monthly income is about 4000.00 USD.
* No form of investments from you.
* This job takes only 1-3 hours per day
About the job:
We have sales representatives all over the world to distribute our
products.You know, that it's not easy to start a business in a new market
(being the AUSTRALIA,USA &New Zealand). There are hundreds of
competitors, close direct contacts between suppliers and customers and other difficulties,
which impede our sales promotion.We have decided to deliver the
products upfront, it's very risky but it should push up sales on 25
percent.Thus we need to get payments for our products as soon as possible.
Unfortunately we are unable to open Bank Accounts in the AUSTRALIA,USA &New Zealand without first registering the company name. Presently
with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put them on hold. For fear
of loosing the customers out rightly to our competitors.Secondly we cannot cash these
payments from the AUSTRALIA,USA &New Zealand soon enough, as International
Cheques take about 14 working days for cash to be made available.We
lose about 75,000 USD of net income each month because we have money
transfer delays*Hence Your task is to coordinate payments from customers and
help us with the payment process.You are not involved in any sales. We
make direct contact for sales of products. Once orders are received and
sorted we deliver the product to a customer (usually through FEDEX).The
customer receives and checks the products. After this has been done the
customer has to pay for the products.About 90 percent of our customers
prefer to pay through Certified/personnel Cheques or bank to bank
transfer depending on the amount involved.That is why we have decided to open
this new Job position for solving this problem.
Your tasks are;
1. Receive payment from Customers
2. Cash Payment at your Bank/Cash point
3. Deduct 10% which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed
4. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of our
offices as you will be instructed.
For example you receive payment of 3000.00 USD you take your income:
300.00 USD Send to us: 2700.00 USD First month you will have 15-20
transactions on 3000.00-4000.00 USD so you may calculate your income.For
example 18 transactions on 3500.00 USD gives you 4410.00 USD Plus your
basis monthly salary is 1000.00 USD Total: 5410.00 USD per month After
establishing a close co-operation with us you'll be able to operate
with larger orders and you'll be able to earn more.Our payments will be
issued out in your name and you can have them cashed at any nearest
Bank/Cash point.Deduct your weekly salary and forward the balance to the
company via western union money transfer or money gram money transfer We
understand it is an unusual and incredible job position. This job takes only
3-7 hours per week. You'll have a lot of free time doing another job,
you'll get good income and regular job.But this job is very challenging
and you should understand it. We are looking only for a
hardworking,reliable and honest worker who will satisfy our requirements and will be a consistent representative. We are glad to offer this job position to
you.You can also click our weblink:http://www.globalsources.com/manufacturers/Fabrics-and-Textiles.html

work for Global Sources Fabrics and Textiles, kindly send me your Full

Good day,

I am Mr. Gordon Smith, the human resource manager for employment of NOVIK LIVE TEXTILES LTD based in the United Kingdom. We have been in the textiles and apparel manufacturing for the past 8yrs and our products range include 100% Combed and Carded Cotton, Cotton Synthetic Blends, yester Viscose Mélange Blends, 100% Acrylic and Cotton Polyester Grey Mélange yarns. Specialty yarns include Cotton Slob and Multi Count in both Ring Spun and Open end. We also offer Dyed Yarns.
My products are sold to private collectors around the world. i am presently facing serious difficulties when it comes to selling my product to Canadians and Americans, Australians as they are always offering to pay by check which is difficult for me to cash here in United Kingdom this will
take approximately 30days to clear which is withholding my finances.

Hence, i am looking for a representative in the U.S.A, UNITED KINGDOM, CANADA, ASIA and AUSTRALIA CITIZENS who will be working for us as a part-time worker and i am willing to pay 10% for every transaction, which wouldn't affect your present job, someone who would help me receive
payments from my customers. I mean someone that is responsible, reliable, trustworthy, ability to read and write. because the cost of coming to the state and getting payments is capital intensive, i am also looking at setting up a branch in the united states and require a permanent position for a branch manager, for now I need a representative in the United States who will be handling the payment aspect. These payments are in money order or cashier checks and they would come to you in your name, so all you need do is cash the payments deduct your percentage and wire the rest back.

It wouldn't cost you a cent to start work, you are to receive payments which will be sent to you by FedEx or UPS from my clients, which would come inform of a money order or cashier check then you are to cash it, deduct your 10% and send the rest to designated recipient via western union or money gram money transfer, all transfer fees should be deducted from the total amount. If interested, please get back to me with your FULL NAME, RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS, NO P.O BOX PLS, YOUR CELL AND HOME PHONE NUMBERS, AGE, SEX AND CURRENT JOB.

NOTE: This job position is legal, your Job commences as soon as we open up a file on your name. For more information please visit http://novikfabrics.doodlekit.com/home

Regards,

Mr. Gordon Smith
