Phone and fax numbers: 619-828-7875 and 801-880-8805 were also listed. The name of the contact was listed as: Caroline Madelyn Eastrige. Public beware.

Hi....
Maybe you could email me something to help my little brother. He received 5 $450.00 money orders to my mothers work address and when he thought they were real...he want to cash them at Walmart...they honored and examined them and the manager checked them and cashed one for him. Later he went to a check cashing service to cash another and was quickly arrested and taken to jail with 2 felony charges. My mother had to pay a $500.00 bail for him and now he is in a real pickle. There was nothing he did other than cash this. The cops asked him how long had my brother and mother been making these money orders and passing them. AS if they had made them their selves. How long had they been running this fraud! My mother is 77 yrs old and my brother is crippled and in a real mess. Any suggestions? My mothers work number is 916-457-4014 her home # is 916-332-4137
THANK-you in advance,

KALO TEXTILES currently expanding into West Africa and

to selling to some of our Americans clients,they are
always offering to pay with U.S. MONEY ORDERS OR
CASHIERS CHECKS, which is difficult for the company to
cash here in the United Kingdom or Africa.
The company is therefore looking for representatives

honesty,dedication and reliability.
However arrangements are been put in place to set up

company needs a representative in the united states,
who will be responsible for handling payments in the
U.S.These payments are in form of money orders and
they would be made in name of our representatives(your
name), so all you need do is cash the money order
deduct your percentage and wire the rest back to the
company. It wouldnt cost you any amount,you will
receive payments(money orders) which will be sent to
you via FEDEX,UPS OR USPS from my business patners,

I answered an ad for work from home, original msg from: House of Bliss & Textiles Industry Ltd, 10 Newport Ave, Scofford Area, Oxford, L349HA, 44(0)7024079452, email jwsmooth@shaw.ca,did not hear for a while then got a reply from: Phil Bradley emailhouseofbliss25@yahoo.co.uk, stating check would be sent my way shortly, did not hear for several weeks,I had sent another email stating I wanted in writting that the check would be guarenteed to be good or I would not do this, shortly after that I received 4 money grams, I called moneygrams to verify the money grams were real and was told not to cash them they are not real. I have yet to hear from these people about them not receiving their money, but I'm sure I will get another email, I have a friend that got taken and is not paying the bank back, after she sent the money within hours the bank notified her that the check had a stop payment on it, and she now had to repay the money. They state in the emails to take 10% and fees for money gram from the total and wire the rest to a specific address the provide in the email.
