Good Morning PATRICIA,

How are you doing today?

We have just received confirmation from UPS that the payment will be delivered to your location today June 10 2008 and the tracking number of the payment package is: 1Z76F1680193213873.

Ok all you need to do,is just have the payment cashed in at your bank and have exactly 10% of the total amount received deducted from the funds as that will be your 10% commission on the payment received.

Here below is the details of the company's representative where remaining 90% balance is to be sent via Western Union

Name:Josephina Rios
Address: 54 baldwin Ave.
City:Jersey City
State:New Jersey
Zip code:07307

Once you have that done to the above details provided,kindly email me the following transfer details below and also be sure to have the charges on costs of transfers at western union deducted from the company's 90%.

1.MTCN Number
2.Total Amount Sent
3.Test Question & Answer(If Applicable)

I gather all these will be given to you at the western union outlet after sending the funds and also required for collection of funds by the receciver.

I hope this is clear to you I will be waiting to hear back from you with the relevant details.

Regards,

Anthony Haines.

money grams

I recieved a package from UPS today, that had to be signed for. Enclosed, were three money orders for $870.
I wasn't expecting any money, so I was curious. I called Traveler's Express to verify them, and they were not valid(which I expected). They were signed by a David Reo. In the top corner was a red stamp, "CVS". They were drawn on WF National Bank.

Who do I report this to?

Employment Letter below is a scam from L&N Textiles and Fabrics


Dear Sir/Madam,

Would u like to work online from home/temporarily and get paid weekly?

we are glad to offer you for a job position at our company,L&N Fabrics and Textiles We need someone to work for the company as a representative/book keeper in the states. This is in view of our not having an office presently in the US. You dont need to have an Office and this certainly wont disturb any form of work you have going at the moment.
From the Site, you will find out the Company produces the following varities of clothing materials:- batiks, assorted fabrics for interior decor, silk and traditional costumes which we have clients we supply weekly in the states.

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 hour per day .
* payment comes through credit card wire transfer,certified checks and money orders.

About the job:
you should know that our company manufactures and sells textile and fabrics.
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 US).
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 in 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 it possible because customers can just "forget" to pay. Unfortunately we are unable to open bank accounts in the United US without first registering the company name.
Presently with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put the on hold.
For fear of loosing the customers outrightly. Secondly we cannot cash these payments from the US 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.


YOUR TASK
Your task is to coordinate payments from customers and help us with the payment process.
You are not invloved in any sales. Our sales manager sells products.
Once he makes a sale 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 credit card wire transfer based on the amount involved. We have decided to open this new job position for solving this problem.



Your tasks are;
1. Recieve payment from Customers
2. Cash Payments out of your credit card 3. Deduct 7% which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed 4. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of the offices you will be contacted to send payment to. (Payment is to forwarded either by Money Gramme or Western Union Money Transfer. Local Money transfers takes barely hours, so it will give us a possibility to get customer's payment almost immediately.
For example you've got 3000.00USD
You take your income : 210.00 USD
Send to us: 2790.00 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 close co-operation you'll be able to operate with larger orders and you'll be able to earn more. Our payments will be transferred to your credit card and you get them cashed in your bank deduct your weekly salary and foward the balance to the company via western union money transfer or moneygram 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 the worker who satisfies our requirements and will be an earnest assistant.
We are glad to offer this job position to you. If you feel that you are a serious and earnest worker and if you want to work for L&N Fabrics and Textiles,a letter of employment would be sent to you and you would fill it out and send back via email and you will receive necessary information in 1-48 hours.
You should reply to my inbox or to my email address which is : kelvingray@yahoo.com

ZUZKA,
PLEASE CHECK THIS COMPANY OUT VERY WELL. SCAMMERS WILL BUY THINGS WITH STOLEN CREDIT CARDS AND ASK PEOPLE TO RECEIVE THE ITEMS AND MAIL THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE. SO GO ONLINE PLEASE AND CHECK THIS COMPANY OUT. IF THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING YOU CAN BE CHARGED WITH RECEIVING STOLEN GOODS AND THEY ARE NEVER FOUND.
