I APPLIED FOR A POSITION ONLINE FOR A PART TIME SERVIE REP. WHEN THEY REPLIED I FOUND OUT ITS A PART TIME POSITION IN WHICH I WOULD BE A THIRD PARTY COLLECTOR. I WOULD HAVE TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS FROM VENDORS AND DEPOSIT IT MY ACCOUNT AND THEN DEDUCT %10 AND THEN SEND THE BALANCE TO MY SUPPOSIT PART TIME EMPLOYEER. EVERYTHING HAPPENED SO QUICK, THAT I FORGOT ABOUT IT ALL BECAUSE I HAD NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM THEM IN MONTHS, BUT THEN I RECEIVED A EMAIL SAYING FEDEX IS ON THE WAY BE READY. I RECEIVED 5 MONEY ORDERS IN MY NAME AND I JUST A BIT PUZZELED. WHY DIDNT THEY JUST SEND THE PAYMENT TO THE EMPLOYEER, THAT WAY THEY DANT HAVE TO PAY ME ETC. BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS IS A SCAM, AND I NEED ADIVSE BEFORE I DO SOMETHING THAT I WILL REGRET.

Even in the UK I get phishing from "Chase".
My "account" has been flagged, suspended, broken into, etc.
As I don't have an account with Chase it doesn't matter.
Ps My American Airline Pilots credit card has also been suspended!!!
As I have never held a commercial pilots licence I rather suspect that this is phishing too!
