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.

Xenex Navigation (xenex-inc.us)

This particular job scam has references to three completely independent domains using the name "Xenex", none of which are involved in the scam. The real scammer is behind the fourth domain -- " xenex-inc.us" -- the one used in the email address. The domain is remarkably old -- for a scam, that is -- having been registered in August 2007. The writing has a distinctly Nigerian flavour to it, but the message headers indicate that it was posted through a webmail service from a computer with IP address 198.172.207.93, which WHOIS describes as belonging to an ISP called "GBU Internet, LLC" in Wilmington, DE, USA.

Beyond that, there's not a lot to say about this scam: it's a typical transaction processing money mule scam.

It never ends! GEEZ!

I am so tired of getting these emails... some get filtered as Spam but most make it to the in box. If it was only once in a while, which is annoying enough, I could blow it off. But I am getting a doz. a day, not counting what filters to Spam. I have applied so many filters now, that I lose important email to the Spam box and then end up wasting time going through all the daily Spam. Does it ever end? Any ideas??

Spotter said...

I find that Gmail has very effective filtering, and you can create filters to automatically delete things containing particular keywords (like "xenex").

Anonymous said...

just got another of these Walter Smith emails. I can't add any more filters than I already have, heck, I even have to go through the spam now a days just to find legitimate emails

I can't believe after sending this bogus crap offer out for so long, that the idiots sending it aren't even bright enough to realize the grammatical and punctuation errors in the very first sentence: commas in place of periods, and "company" should be plural.

Ok so I recieved a Job offer as well from "Kelvin Stone" for Xenex, the email didnt really reflect the one that is posted here yet contained the same fishy details. In the email he's been sending me, he says that they make cleaning disinfectant products for hospitals and that I would be processing orders for them which is pretty much the same scam that is being reported here. He must be becoming slightly clever with their lingo and communication for someone who knows about scams, did not catch this one right away.

Apparentely, they're still at it. I saw a post today on Monster.com for a data entry/typist asst. The email name to reply to is Stanley Beddingfield. I knew it was a scam right away - he horrible grammar and the job sounded too good to be true. They've also advertised the same position in the Dallas Morning News. Geez Stanley, get a clue. Change your name, idiot!
