Job Scam
Complaint 209598 Details

I was looking for jobs on craigslist and had one of the company replied me saying that they are the sector of Exp Global Inc - a subsidiary of General Atlantic LLC. The job title was personal assistant which have to run personal errands, supervisions and monitoring.

The first thing he needed is my full name, home address, cell phone number, home phone number, current occupation and email address.
I got my first job task once he submitted and verified my informations: I received a cheque mailed by Fedex and asked me to deposit to my bank and cash out. I have to wire the money using Western Union to Cindy James in Philippines for furnitures. I went to the bank, deposit $3750 and cashed out $3250 and wired immediately. That was happen on Jan.25.2013. He always have a confirmation email to me, and texted me to confirm everything is on going properly.

After a week, I received 2 cheques of $2200 each, which totals $4400. He wanted me to deposit and wire to the same person, Cindy James, and another so called 'shipping agent' Danny Gold. Luckily, the branch manager noticed the cheques were frauds, and stopped me.

Further after, I noticed the first cheque had return back to the bank and I have to pay for all.

The cheques sent to me from different city and person.

I remembered the last one was from Hawaii.
