Hello Tresia Dunn:

It is a good thing that you found this site. Yes it is a scam designed to rip you off. If you go through most of the comments here you will find others that were sent this email and other examples of emails that are being sent out.

They look for us on the Job Boards like Monster, Careerbuilder, and so on. They send us an email knowing that we are looking for employment and they take advantage of us by pretending to be employers and they get emails and send us their scams.

A lot of of people aren't as fortunate as you to search whether the email they received is true or fake. The ones who fall for the scam must be so down and out as to belive a lie. So be careful and protect yourself.


2006-04-25 11:51:38 -
i recieved the same e-mail from little miss susan bryant. THIS IS A BIG SCAM TURN WHAT EVER PAYMENT OVER TO YOUR STATE POLICE DEPARTMENT OR YOU'LL BE PAYING YOUR BANK THAT AMOUNT. it sounded like a sure thing to me but all it is that you cash, send, and she basically recives payment twice so you have to PAYBACK the amount in which you cashed and since you sent it to her you dont have that money to give back to the bank. there should be a watermark on the back and the cheques should be textured of some sort. the ones i recived didn't have neither. and the bank numbers were on croocked, duh. i didn't fall for it so becareful.

Resending the attached email below I received and found out it was a fraud.




I have a new email address!

You can now email me at: [email protected]

SUSART WORLD INC.

OFFICE

34 Parliament Streets,

York, YO18SG, UK



Dear Friend,



My name is Susan Bryant, I am an artist with my husband John Bryant,We own SUS ART WORLD in London(United Kingdom)I live in London United Kingdom, with my two kids, four cats, one dog and the love of my life my husband John Bryant.



It is definitely a full house, I have been doing artwork since I was a small child that gives me about 23 years of experience I majored in art in high school and took a few college art courses most of my work is done in either pencil or art brush mixed with color pencils.



I have recently added designing and creating artwork on the computer, I have been selling my art for the last 3 years and have had my work featured on trading cards, prints and in magazines, I have sold in galleries and to private collectors from all around the world.



I am always facing serious difficulties when it comes to selling my artworks to Americans, they are always offering to pay with MONEY ORDER OR CASHER'S CHEQUE, which is difficult for me to cash here in London United Kingdom.

I am looking for a representative in the states who will be working for

me as a par time worker and i will be willing to pay 10% for every transaction, which wouldn’t affect your present state of work, some one who would help me receive payments from my customers in the states mean someone that is responsible and reliable, cause the cost of coming to the state and getting

payments is very expensive, I am working on setting up a branch in

the state, so for now I need a representative in the united state who will

be handling the payment aspect. These payments are in money order and they would come to you in your name,

so all you need do is cash the money order deduct your percentage and wire the rest back. But the problem I have is trust, But I have my way of getting anyone that gets away with our money, I mean the FBI branch in Washington will gets involve when our Money get missing. It wouldn’t cost u any amount. you are to receive payments which will be sent to you by FedEx or ups from my business partners, which would come in form

of a money order then u are to cash it and send the cash to me via Money Gram transfer all Money Gram charges will be deducted from the money.

If you are interested, please get back to me as soon as possible via

email.

Regards

Susan Bryant.

I received this email and gave out my number and home address. The person change her email address to [email protected] and [email protected]


2006-04-25 00:48:15 -
Here is the first scam I received, now this one almost had me. I checked this out by calling the bank were the check was drawn and the person in charge of the theft department told me that the check that I received was fraud and this was a scam.
How are you,My name is David Mark and I own a company that sells
Chinese and African textile and fabric material in London,I am
looking for a trustworthy representative in USA /Canada that can help
as a link between me and my client over there.i would like to know if
you are interested to work from home for us
AVALON TEXTILES needs a book-keeper or representative in the
states,so I want to know if you will like to work on line from home and
gettingpaid weekly without leaving or affecting your present job?
I presently run a textile and fabrics firm in London and we need
someone to work for the company as a representative/book keeper in
Canada/USA.You can pls go through my website www.avalontextiles.net
My company produces various clothing materials, batiks, assorted
fabrics
and traditional costumes.We have clients we supply weekly in the states
and myclients make payments for our supplies every week in form of
money orders or cashiers check which are not readily cashable outside
the US or Canada,so we need someone in the States/Canada to work as our
representative and assist us in processing the payments from our
clients
and I will pay him/her a weekly wage, by percentage.
All you need to do is receive this payment from our clients in the
States or Canada and get it cashed in your bank or a cashing center
then deduct your 10% and forward the balance to the company down here
via moneygram or western union money transfer.The main reason why the
funds
cannot be
cashed down here is that it would take 20-24 days for a a US money
order to pass through the bank here an d that would tie down my capital
and not make business move fast as i expected,but a US money order
presented to the bank in the US would clear tops withing 48hrs and the
person that used to help me cash the money orders before that is my
former representative has moved to Germany with his family.
Our payments will be issued out in your name and you get them cashed in
your bank, deduct your 10% of the initial capital and forward the
balance to the company by money transfer.
So all I need is to forward your information to our numerous clients in
thestates or Canada and they will contact you before they issue payment
in
form of money order or cheques then send it via courier or mail to you.
If accepted I will need your full name, address and phone number so we
canforward it to our clients and they will start making payments to you
as
the company representative in the states.
BELOW IS AN ATTACHED LETTER OF EMPLOYMENT FROM OUR
COMPANY WHICH YOU HAVE TO REPLY WITH AN ACCEPTANCE LETTER AND A SCANNED
COPY OF YOUR VALID IDENTIFICATION ATTACHED TO IT.
AS SOON AS WE CONFIRM ANY PAYMENT COMING TO YOU, I WILL LETYOU KNOW AND
I WILL GIVE YOU THE INFORMATION TO SEND FUNDS TO THE COMPANY VIA
MONEYGRAM OR WESTERN UNION MONEY
TRANSFER.
