He [email protected] wanted me to cash a 975.00 mo order and keep 200.00 as my payment and use the rest to western Union to Segun Mooore - 1999 Wassey Road - Manila, Philippines
The ladies name who the mo order is from is Deb Farley - 6316 W Corrine Drive, Glendale, AZ 85304
The FedEx package came from Roy Edwards Lec Management - 179 S Watson- Suite 407 - Arlington, TX 76010 ph # 567-429-1519
I have not tried to cash the mo order, but I did contact Roy Edwards and he claims not to know anything about this which could be possible since when you call the # you get a weird Google message with information like it’s a company with the same name as Roy’s but in Los Angeles Ca

- A similar situation happened to my neighbor. He replied to an email he had received,though I'm not exactly sure who it was through, offering him money to be a secret shopper. He was desperate for the money so he did it. He was told his 1st assignment would be to check out a Western Union. They sent him a money order for approximately $800 and was told to go to any Western Union in the area and reply back to them judging the quality of service, how many miles the Western Union was from his home, safety of Western Union location, etc...He brought the check to the bank first to make sure it was legit, I thought it even looked legit because of the water mark. The next day he called the bank and they said it looked legit to them as well, so went ahead and followed through with the assignment. He was given a lady's address in Texas to send the rest of the money to after he took his $100 out. A couple of days later he received a much bigger money order whereas he was to keep $300 of it after he sent the rest off at a different Western Union and completed the same survey. That same day,the bank called and said the original money order had bounced and that he had 1 day to get the money back into the bank or they would put a warrant out for his arrest.
