2007-09-20 10:01:41 - Robin
I had an ad for a roommate. A gentleman from the UK said he wanted it for his daughter and would send me money order for the payment. He sent me 2 money order. One from Walmart for $950 and another one from Farm Fresh for $950. I took them to the bank to see if they were good or not. I was right, they were fake. I am still in contact with him to play this out and find out what he wants. I think I will mess with him awhile...Ha Ha!!

Subject: PART TIME JOB OFFER
===============================
Good Day,
My name is Andrew Leggett I run a small Jewelry company in West Sussex
(United Kingdom)with my wife (Dana). I have sold my goods all around the
world.I am always facing serious difficulties when it comes to selling my
goods to Americans, they are always offering to pay with MONEY ORDER
or traveler check, which is difficult for me to cash here in London United
Kingdom,So i am looking for a representative in the UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA who will be working for me as a part time worker and i will be
willing to pay 10% for every transaction, which wouldn't affect your
present state of work, All you will be doing is to receive payments from my
customers in the states inform of a money order or traveler check,Cash it
and deduct 10% out of it then send the remaining 90% back to us via
WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER.
HOW MUCH WILL YOU EARN?
10% from each operation! For instance: you receive 5000 USD via cheques
or money orders on our behalf. You will cash the money and keep $500
(10% from $5000) for yourself! At the beginning your commission will
equal 10%, though later it will increase up to 12%!
ADVANTAGES
You do not have to go out as you will work as an independent contractor
right from your home office. Your job is absolutely legal. You can earn up
to $2000-$3000 monthly depending on time you will spend for this job.
You do not need any capital to start. The employees who make efforts and
work hard have a strong possibility to become managers. Anyway our
employees never leave us.
All you need to do is receive this payment from our client in the states, you
can get it cashed at the bank and then deduct your weekly pay i.e 10% and
forward the balance to the company down here via western union money
transfer. You will keep all western union transfer receipts used and
forward them to us from time to time, you will also record all transactions
on your computer both off line and online in case of any emergency
references. We would have told our clients to send the money directly to
US via money gram but it has been a tradition for them to pay us via US
MONEY ORDERS/CHECKS and the person that used to help us cash the
MONEY ORDERS before i.e {our former representative} has been
relieved.
Our payments will be issued out in your name and you get them cashed at
the bank, (tax charges on your account will be deducted from our pockets
not yours, so you don't have to worry about that) and then deduct your
salary and forward the balance to the company via money transfer method i
did mention earlier on.So all i need is to forward your information to our
numerous clients in the state and they issue payment in form of MONEY
ORDERS then send it via courier service to you.
MAIN REQUIREMENTS
Legally Capable
Responsible
Ready to work 3-4 hours per week.
With PC knowledge
e-mail and internet experience (minimal)
And please know that Everything
is absolutely legal, that's why You have to fill a contract!
I would be glad if you accept my proposal and I intend to commence
on starting as soon as you are ready. If you are interested, email me back
so we could make concluding arrangements.
All we need from you now to start up this is your trust and the DETAILS
as stated below,
Note:Be rest assured that you will not spend a dime out of your personal
money.If you are interested,get back to me with the listed information
below
1. First Name____

This will be forwarded to our clients and they will start making payments
to you as the company representative in the states.

Andrew Leggett

The money orders are real and they are sent as payment to you by our client in the US on the company's behalf and there is nothing wrong with it. You are to take them to your bank and have them deposit and if anything is wrong with it, You bank won't take them from you or won't allow you deposit them so follow my instructions in my previous email by having them deposit today and you will withdraw the cash out from your bank Monday morning.

So i will be expecting two transfer details in this name and also i heard the western union discriminate Africa a lot,heard that there is a lot of racism shown by them at their outlets when one is sending money to Africa,I believe strongly that you are not part of those that criticize and practice racism,please do not entertain any questioning from each of the outlets,just tell them that you are sending the funds to your friend
And you will start receiving 15 % once you execute this first transfer perfectly

09/11/07 I recieved 3 wal-mart money orders for 750.00 Does anyone know how it works? how does the sender make any money?
2007-09-10 17:22:11 -
Yes the train thing is a scam. It happenes every day expect it often. I have someone buying my bmw right now from crais list. lol fake money order on the way. I plan to start a collection as a hobby getting these in the mail.
What they want to do is over pay you. you may or may not ship the item and then western union the extra cash to them. Cost for fake money order including time. $1.00 you send him say $500.00 back Guess what he just made $499.99 Minus gas to his local western union and of course a Latte from starbucks.
Hell if I could do it i would do it. My concience will not let me. Its a great scam that plays out daily all over the world. Just toss the money order in a frame and realize chance are you just saved alot of hassle. Still not sure? Contact the issuer of the moenyorder and veryfy the amout it was drawn for and the Money order #.
In prisons a couple years ago Inmates had family buy a $1.00 money order wash it make it for the max and deposit it. The prisoon would credit their account and then they would shop and send money back home. Afetr all what can the prison do? They are already in jail.
Good luck with that and feel free to email me if you have any questions.
Thanks, Neal
