Money mule job of the "banking forged checks" variety. Here's a hint: when a bank says a check has "cleared", that only means you can draw on it. It doesn't mean it won't bounce later.

To:
Dear Sir/Madam,
We need agents to receive payment for our textiles ( inchecks ) and to
resend the money to us via Money Gram or Western Union Money
Transfer.
This way we will save money because of tax decreasing.
The international money transfer tax for legal entities (companies) in UK is 25%,
where as for the individual it is only 7%.There is no sense for us to
work this way while tax for international money transfer made by a
private individual is 7%.
That's why we need you! If you are interested in our offer, please
reply immediately to this email address:
hansontextiles_hanson2007@yahoo.co.uk

Mr.Dale Wendell

I received one of these messages, too. However, the reply email is now hanson.txt1@yahoo.co.uk
I received this same message today.
If you go to this link AT THE REAL HANSON TEXTILES LTD you will find they are aware of the fraudulent emails & have reported them to the police.

I guess since they couldn't convince me that I won the lottery, or have arelative who died in a plane crash, or impersonate a relative of someone who died in the 9/11 attacks they are trying this. I also got a notice from the FHA wanting to give me $25 million dollars. This porvided I return 70%. Isn't there a way the FBI, Interpol, Scotland Yard or the Secret Service to find them. There are too many people who are looking to make an easy buck or two or seven million who will sacrifice their freedom for these scum. I find most of the phone numbers trace back to Nigeria or country code 44. There have been times that I have been tempted. Especially when I haven't been working, or I am low on cash around the holidays. It would be great to use the money to finance my grandchildren's education or buy a few houses in the same sub-division for my kids and their families. But being an honest person I cannot. I will work with whatever organization calls to hel put these lowlifes behond bars for nothing more than giving people the false hope of financial stability without working. Thank you Hanson Textiles for letting people know about this scam.

I just recieved the same message today. Strange, I just went on line today looking for a job @ www.njpin.com. I entered all the info they asked. I thought that this info was safe being it was on the New Jersey site. Someone from the state should check out there site. Really upset now. God's knows what else I will be receiving.
I received this e-mail today my self from hanson textiles. The reply e-mail was "info@hansontextiles.co.uk", so I checked out the website and turns out that there is a warning about fraud play but the reply email belongs to the website. The address and contact detail's for the company on the web page is:
tel: 01926 470 141
fax: 01926 470 144
post: Unit 5, St. Mary's Road
Sydenham Industrial Estate
Leamington Spa
Warwickshire CV31 1DB
but the web page is registered to this address:
10 Copson St
Manchester, M20 3HE, United Kingdom
which turns out to be a takeaway restaurant called:
"Lazeeza Tandoori Takeaway"
phone number: +44 161 448 8999
Note that hansontextiles.co.uk has been registered since late 2001, and is most likely a real company for that reason alone. The registration address is Surcon House, Copson Street, and there may well be more than one business located in this building.
The email address you have posted is, indeed, an address owned by the real company. Presumably this is either an error or a decoy: the scammers usually provide a Yahoo! address (or similar) for responses.
Just thought you'd like to know this guy is back again, operating under a slightly modified "company" name, and with a new reply address. My email client showed: "tolasilverneedlove@yahoo.com"
He's also modified it to look like a job offer, and included all sorts of pleas of legality.

Then sent me a fraudulant cheque for£3,800 which included my rent and his daughters flight and car money. his email is Owenhanson1a@yahoo.com STAY AWAY!
Owen Hanson has also contacted me concerning a room for rent in London. He has offered to send a check for 3000 pounds, to secure a room for his daughter (Kelly). Thanks for the warning and others please beware.
