International boundaries

The only Tabacchi Enterprises is out of the United States, I contacted the actually company and got an e-mail back saying that they don't know anything about the so called company in PA and I also contacted Career Builder and got the same information. Don't fall for it because all they want is your checking account numbers. They tell you it's $19 per hours to work from home doing data entry and customer service. The web site that they had up this week is now deleted, but if you see this number 717-461-2882 it's a woman in PA because I called her and she acted like she was in the hr dept. for the company and I looked it up on line, it's a landline #. The Better Business Bureau also never heard of this company in the United States.

  • I think that Christina is actually the women who called my house and I just looked her up on fb and she looks just like the woman sounded that I spoke with. She's got a real broken accent and I could hardly understand her. I don't think it's Ironic that she lives in PA also. I just did a lot of searching and I think it would be very easy to locate her and turn her into the police. I have a phone number and spokeo has the address listed in Harrisburg, PA. There's also a fax # 1-866-785-9846 to look out for. The website that was up last week is tbctrust.com and now it's suddenly down. If anyone else gets anymore info. on her soon please update the complaints. I'm working on shutting this fake website down so nobody gets scammed. Thanks!

  • Don't fill out your bank info. or they will clean out your account. James Rogers and Karla Waters were the ones that I kept getting messges from everyday until I wouldn't give them my bank account numbers. The e-mail addresses are exactlyl the same as the ones that I have. They want your info. on the message board because no one else can see it and they have control of deleting you whenever they want to like they did with me. Be careful and don't let them scam you.

    At first this job sounds like quite the catch, at $19 dollars an hour!

    Basically you transfer money from international"clients" sent to you to other international "clients" thru money transfers from a specific money order place.


    This company tried to hire my sister last week,(we live in Los Angeles area), from her resume on Career Builder. She gave them her information, my checking account #, and signed an employment agreement form. She provided a voided check, under the guise of a "Direct Deposit" forum, and it was mentioned that her bank account will be used to place funds from the company to be disbursed to clients, and she needs to take them out and transfer them to clients. She completely stopped talking to them, and she admit she signed a confidentiality agreement so she cant discuss the "job" in detail.

    The "job" of this company is simply going to your bank, withdrawing the cash they send to your account, and then going to a specific wire transfer place of your city and sending the money order/ money transfer to somebody in another country aka their Clients. When you send the money to this money wire place, your supposed to say it's for "personal" reasons, and your supposed to go to multiple branches, a different one every day. Also you are offered $25 an hour if you get a small business account. This is extremely fishy.

    I talked to my local bank and they said constant transfer of money would trigger an investigation on your account, if your are out of a sudden receiving several thousands to your bank account several times a week, and then withdrawing them as cash the bank is going to get suspicious.

    The bank said it is highly likely this company is a money laundering scheme, or a wire fraud scam, but that is just an opinion.

    My opinion is that this company is similar to a Nigerian Scam, they may deposit money and when you send it to the clients its you wont get scammed, but after a while they will scam by giving you fake cash which you send to somebody else, after they built your trust.

    Several read flags:
    You are required to say that you are always the originator of the transfer. That means when you go to the money order place to send the money transfer..you take all the risk.

    Another red flag is that they claim that your safe to do this because they will provide you with some sort of certificate with their company seal.

    And get this their USA global Office is a P.O. Box!

    P.O. Box 23178, Harrisburg, PA 17106

    Oh and their live support is not existent!

  • Oh, after you give them your Direct Deposit forum, they will give you a 3 page Manual...basically you drive to places with and do money transfers from cash you withdraw from your account and send them to clients overseas.

  • I've seen you guys talking about this company, tabacchi enterprises. Well, I've worked for them for 2 months and I can tell you that I've already got my first 3 salaries via direct deposit. This Friday I'm going to get $1,520 for the last 2 weeks. I'm not gonna say it's once-in-a-lifetime chance or smth like heaven, but it's a real company that pays real money. As I presume, it's the main issue you're all concerned about.

  • I see all of you are so negative about this company. However, I haven't seen the reason yet. You are saying it's a scam, but no single proof is listed. I worked for this company for a couple of months since January, but I had to quit for personal reasons (it wasn't even my field). The operations with these wire transfers money withdrawal and sending were quite hard and nervous, though the pay was always on time. So, I'm just trying to understand what are you so messed up about if no one was actually scammed or had their money stolen from the account. I think it's impossible until you give your ssn to anybody.
