• Financial Financial Representatives Wanted
  Financial: Financial; Financial; "Representatives Wanted".Financial By anti-fraud from usa 1 comments. I have been hammered with emails like this.[1] There are a few key points that indicate this is a scam.[2] First "Most of our customers pay out in cash, cheques or money orders and we do not have an account in U.S.A and Canada presently that will clear this money." Of course you don't need anything to "clear cash".[3] But most importantly, the email is seeking "representatives" to "getting to our customers" and "making payments".[4] The rest of the email is about payments.[5] What you can be sure is that once you agree to be a representative, you will receive numerous checks and payments from "customers" and be asked to forward 90% of the total via Western Union or Wire Transfer ie: you get to keep 10% for doing almost nothing .[6] It will be a great "job" until you find out all the checks are bogus and ...

  Most legitimate companies do not recruit via mass e-mails.[1] Any time you are contacted by someone claiming to offer jobs, I would suggest contacting the company directly rather than dealing with someone on the internet.[2] Clue 1 - The e-mail advised you not to contact the company directly Why...because the person is going to scam you and part of the scam involves you not having all the information.[3] Clue 2 - The person is using Yahoo or some other ...
