I was selling puppies in my local paper and some guy that refered himself to me as Bill called via relay which is a operator that talks to you and he gave me his email address of [email protected] and he wanted to buy one of my puppies didn't care what color or if it was male or female. But the catch was that he would send me cashiers checks and I would cash them and email him back asap and he would give me a way to contact this company that would be coming to get the puppy the company name is London United Kingdom once you have the money you wire it to them via western Union. When I emailed him bck and told him that cashiers checks would not work for me I wanted the money to be sent to me western Union he told me that the checks are already issued to me so I told him to go ahead and send them but he would not recieve a puppy until I could guarentee that they were real and I have not heard from him since. So Please be careful and try to research any one that is askin you to send money to a company cause it should not be your job to set up the pick up and handle the extra cash.

I recieved an email from "MILLER TEXTILES" today. Luckily, I worked at Monster.com not to long ago, and know what sort of scams are out there. If you receive this email please do not contact them. They will send u a check to cash, u will send them money orders right away, and than a few days later your bank will notify you the check was either a fake or it just simply bounced and you will be held reliable for the money.

Here is the email I received:

Dear,
Would you like to work online from home and get paid weekly ?
MILLER TEXTILES needs a book-keeper in the states, so
I want to know if you will like to work online from home and get paid weekly without leaving or affecting your present job?
It's just that I presently run a textile and fabrics firm I inherited from my late Dad in the UK and we need someone to work for the company as a representative/book keeper in the states.
My company produces various clothing materials, batiks, assorted fabrics and traditional costume which we have clients we supply weekly in the states.
My clients make payments for our supplies every week in form of Money Orders, which are not readily cashable outside the United States,
So we need someone in the States to work as our representative and assist us in processing the payments from our clients and we will pay him/her
wage.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS RECEIVE THIS PAYMENTS FROM OUR CLIENTS IN THE STATES,GET IT CASHED IN YOUR BANK THEN DEDUCT YOUR WEEKLY PAY AND FORWARD THE
BALANCE TO THE COMPANY DOWN HERE VIA WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER.
Our payments will be issued out in your name and you get them cashed in your bank.
Deduct your weekly salary and forward the balance to the company via
Western union money transfer.
I AWAIT YOUR URGENT RESPONSE.

I got the below email that is almost identical to some of the other posts. I figured this was a scam. Isn't there something that can be done legally about these scam artists? I had one guy call me at home the other day that told me I had won $595,00 dollars and all he needed was my bank account # so he could send me my winnings. He knew my address, my full name and my phone #. I told him to send me a cashiers check that I didn't believe in banks. He hung up real fast but it is still scary that he had that much information on me.

Any way here's the email I got today. "Susan" is using a MSN address but says to contact her at a Yahoo address.
Beware everyone!
