I responded to a Craiglist ad for a data entry job through PlanMill out of Helsinki, Finland. Went through an online interview and was hired. I received a hire letter that I signed. I did about 27 hours of work in "training" mode. I received a check from a company in Chicago ($2400 Mary Monica Music - who's check image was stolen). The check was Fed Ex'd from a guy who's ID was stolen. The check did not clear. Unfortunately I did not do my homework soon enough. The training that I was doing - writing papers and doing online research seemed legit. The money $2400 was to be for materials - desk, file cabinet, printer, laptop computer, scanner... I sent two different Western Unions to a lady in New Jersey. The other $266 includes WU, bank and credit card fees. I have all emails, Yahoo Messenger conversations, receipts, and even spoke to the other two who were caught up in this. The individual who hired me says his name is James Godley. I have his picture from his yahoo profile. [email protected]. Tasha Fowler is who I wired money to in Elizabeth, NJ. I believe she has a Facebook profile. I have a cell phone text from a (Personal Info Removed) number as he tried to text me last night. He wants another $720 from me so that I can be reimbursed as supposedly his "reimbursement team" can only reimburse $4000 and I was shy that amount by $720. I had sought, and was promised/guaranteed/reassured original reimbursement of $3280 and change by Friday, December 30, 2011. That includes the hours of training that I worked. With all the electronic signatures and cell phone usage during Yahoo Messenger sessions, I am hoping this will be an easy case. There should be cameras at the WU where Tasha claimed the cash. Please help me!!!

  • Okay...I have been speaking with someone with the same situation,
    I hoped it was legit but you've confirmed it isn't.
    Thank goodness I haven't done anything yet!

  • I found the company listed on Linked In and it looks legit.
    I have the e-mails and was called by someone in FL asking for my checking acct info to direct deposit a check. This is one of the most ellaborate scams Ive seen.

  • Thanks. This report kept me from actually sending these people any money. This is really elaborate and I have reported them to law enforcement.

  • After I complained to the guy I've been talking to, Dakota Williams, he gave me another name in Elizabeth, NJ - Marcus Freeman. I think they may be onto the complaints about the Tasha Fowler identity.

  • The phone number for this "Marcus Freeman" is 321-352-5327. This is the same phone number I have been getting hang up calls from for the past several days. When I told my contact that I was contacting law enforcement, he made some not-so-subtle threats via AIM.
