Creative Scam

Featured Replies

Have not seen this variation before, very creative and fraught with danger. :o

What does it have to do with Thailand :D , well I was in Thailand when I received it and if I participated in this wonderful opportunity, it would be from Thai soil. :D Oh, and all the 'income' would be spent in LOS. :D

Now lets see, 15 pkgs (lets be nice and assume they are all large) X 40 cents per pkg X 4 wks = $24

X 35B/$ = WOW 840B/month. Retirement here I come :D

Thank You

I've alreadsy received dozens of those, I find them pathetic :o

It's a variation on the counterfeit check advance scam. Sounds like they're trying to launder funds from stolen paypal accounts.

Of course you'll be the one the police come after as you're accepting the stolen funds and once it's sent on through Western Union it's untraceable.

they must get some suckers doing it though or they wouldnt bother sending it out to six zillion email accounts

Every week I receive various emails, usually the subject line reads "representative needed", in which I am offered to accept payments on behalf of somebody who cannot directly receive them from his customers himself for some reason, I have to channel the money to him then, deducting 10% or so for my services. Used to get them just occasionally, but since about a week they are coming in thick and fast. Don't know exactly how this scam functions, but obviously money can be made from it, otherwise they wouldn't put so much effort in it. It is the scamming flavour of the day!
