  • I too have received emails, signed the contract and have received the checks in the mail. Totaling $3,350. I went to cash the checks at my bank and (THANKFULLY) the bank manager came out and talked to me about scams and asked more information about the job and company (which I didn't have a lot of), she sat me down and we looked up the company, the name on the check ( Lesley A. Fox ), the bank on the check ( Greenfield Banking Co. in Greenfield, IN ). While the bank came up legit, searching a Lesley Fox returned with multiple results. However the name that was on the envelope which came in the mail was under HealthConnection (exactly like that) from an address in Columbus, Ohio. All signs pointed to fraud and at the end of our search the manager said it was up to me if I still wanted to cash the checks however even if I didn;t touch the money deposited, if the checks bounced my account would be closed. I decided not to cash/deposit and informed them of my bank's findings. They (of course) denied it and kept pressuring me to go ahead and cash the checks and if anything came up wrong they would reimburse me however they would not give me any contact information other than the email address they were emailing me from. Since I did naively sign the contract I am still making an effort to get more information from them, so far to no avail.

    @skyy15 Please keep me updated with any information you receive as I do still have the checks in my possession and would like to know if I should just trash them or send them back to the sender. Thank you!

    And thank you all for your comments!

  • @sentia89, CareerBuilder probably is aware of it, but even if you tell them, they're probably not going to do anything as anyone can create any profile anywhere. again, this person probably just used CareerBuilder's name to trick people into thinking it's legit. Also, anytime you provide your email address online for whatever purpose, some companies will spam you adnauseum. Sad, but true. Those on here who received this Rebecca email should probably change their email password ASAP!

  • Dear Skyy15 - That's good news for HealthConnection, Inc. but bad new for the folks at 445 Degroate Rd. Looks like they discovered we have filed with US Criminal Services and have moved on to these folks.

    We received check with Bank information from IN, MN,PA, FL so Chicago is no surprise :)

    All the account numbers on the checks used are fraud and we contacted the fraud division of each bank.

    You were very wise to only give them a PO Box number. Who knows what they could do with your name and address.

    Thanks again for your post... hope these crooks go to jail for years!!!!!

  • HealthConnection,

    It appears that they've changed their ammo in that they're using another address, but still using Procyon-Instruments(not HealthConnection). However, the envelopes' return name and address is as follows:

    Susan King
    445 Degroate Road
    New Lenox, IL 60451
    (Keep in mind REBECCA MILLER'S name is on all of the emails they've sent to me; not this "Susan King" name)

    The bank they're using is as follows:

    Harris, N.A.
    5th Floor
    Chicago, IL 60606

    I sure hope something is being done about this!!

  • Dear skyy15 - Thank you for your post. HealthConnection, Inc. has filed a Mail Fraud Report with United States Postal Inspection Service / Criminal Investigations Service Center.
    Can you reply and confirm that the return address on the envelop was HealthConnection, Inc from Columbus, OH - Please!

    As we stated in the first post we have no part in this scam only that they are using our business address as the return address on the envelops.

    Thank you everyone that has forwarded your information to us.

  • My story that I just posted on another page about this scam:

    Wow!!! I was actually quite certain that this was a scam, but I figured I'd 'play along' and lo and behold, TWO CHECKS ARRIVED!! Prior to taking it this far, I did do what I thought was an exhaustive google search, but that was prior to this 'expose' here. In any case, I deposited the two checks (totaling $3,300) in my checking account but asked my bank to put a hold on the funds to make sure they clear FIRST. There was no way I was going to cash it and send them that amount of money (90% of the $3,300 of course!). Also, I gave them my P.O. Box instead of my home address because of my skepticism. BOTTOM LINE, once I confirm that these checks are in fact bad checks, I will give you guys an update as it appears that no one else has gotten this far (hopefully no one sent them money!!). Great job everyone!!!

  • I wish people would do a little research next time before falling for anything that at first seems too outrageously "good" to be true. What I did was copy the entire email and searched the web using google. You can also copy just a few sentences first to search. It brought me to this website. I also searched "Rebecca Miller" and "Procyon" and one of them brought me to the "Rhonda" scam. The entire message was the same, except for the name of the asshole behind the scam, who's real name is probably not the one used in the email. A search for "Procyon" on www.glassdoor returned an address in Florida, not a UK address. Again, assholes out there are using other people's name and other company's address to perpetrate their scams. They even sent scam emails to me from me, and from other people's email address without their knowledge! It's easy to just put anyone's email address in the "Sent From" address. Please Don't fall for any scam!!!!!
