I can't believe I almost fell for the Mike Perkins IMED scam! What a creep! Thank goodness I had the sense to google him before signing anything! Remember people, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

hi, we signed up to process out of country payments for a fabric company called Landine Fabrics, owned by John Landine. We recieved the first payment of $4500 in the form of travelers cheques, and we dont want to be scammed. How can we tell if the travelers cheques are real? Can our bank tell?
thanks
cindy

I found out, that I had just been part of a scam. Good thing I found out after receiving my first check. Do not respond to International Med at 345 Oxford Street, W1N 0BY London, United Kingdom. They use stolen identity from unspecting citizens. They some how get there ABA and Bank Acct numbers and issue checks to individuals needing a parttime job at home processing checks. Again do not participate, it is a big scandal.

If anyone has info on what attorney i should get in WI let me know.

You should never trust ANYONE with any of your personel information exspecially your bank or credit card or social security on line ever as most of the time they use it to sell your IDENITY to someone and they WILL wipe your accounts out and take all your money and possibly more. Now you will need to go to your bank and have them freeze your account and change it over to a different account number with a advisory warning on your account that no unauthorized billings or withdrawls will be allowed except by you personelly, as far as this business you gave this too, I'm posative they are a scam!!! Read all the scams going on all over the internet and thru out and you will see.
You probably will now need to report to all the credit reporting agencies that you are now possibly and probably a victim of IDENITY theft so that they will flag your dredit reporting agencies or you will be liaiable for anything THEY purchas with your identity.
As a word of great caution, ONLY do any purchases online with a loadable debit card that is NOT attached to any of your accounts or you will be just letting people use you to nothing left for you and years to clean it all up

I got an email from labo investments facrics and textiles and did a search to see if it was a fraud


2006-06-23 09:28:16 -
I have received message from Susan Powell who owns SUS Art World. She is requesting someone in the states to basically "send her money" from people who want to buy her art. She says she can not cash it in the UK. That is rediculous! Don't fall for it.
