Type of a scam Employment
HIRED BY A "WALTER SMITH" OF FOREIGN DESENT HIRED ME TO BE GO BETWEEN TO MAIL TO OTHER PEOPLE. HE WAS WILLING TO PAY ME 200 DOLLARS. I RECEIVED IN FIRST ENVELOPT A POSTAL MONEY ORDER IN THE AMOUNT OF 1000 DOLLARS. I WAS TO TAKE OUT 200 FOR ME AND SEND THE REST THROUGH MY BANK TO HER ACCOUNT IN PHOENIX WITH THE SAME BANK. I WAS HAPPY TO MAKE THE MONEY AND I HAD NO QUESTIONS AND SENT AN EMAIL THAT IT WAS DONE. HE WANTED TO KNOW THE NAME OF THE GIRL WHO HELPED SEND IT. I PROVIDED THAT NAME…. ALL WENT WELL, THEN I RECEIVED A 2ND ENVELOPE WHEN TWO WERE SENT BACK BY FED X AND THIS 2ND ONE WAS AGAIN SENT BY UPS….. THIS NEXT ONE, I ENDED UP WITH 3 POSTAL MONEY ORDERS AMTING TO 3000. WELL, I WENT BACK TO MY BANK AND WAS FIXING TO SEND THESE TO CHICAGO; WHEN THE SAME GIRL QUIETLY CAME UP TO ME AND SAID THAT THE FIRST ONE DIDN’T GO THROUGH. I WAS VISABLY UPSET AND TOLD HER, THEN I BETTER GET AHOLD OF THE FBI AND NOTIFY THEM. I HAD ALWAYS TRUSTED THE US POSTAL SERVICE.
THAT NIGHT, I NOTIFIED MY SUBSCRIBER AND ASKED WHAT HE WANTED TO DO. HE TOLD ME JUST DESTROY THE OTHER MONEY ORDERS AND LATER, I TOLD HIM I DID BUT I REALLY DIDN’T. I STILL HAVE THEM AND WILL TURN THEM OVER TO THE US POSTAL SURGEON GENERAL HERE IN SAN ANTONIO, TX……
