I was looking for a work from home job on Craigslist & a Steve Miller contacted me about a job shopping for him. He said I would be receiving packages from him in the mail & all I had to do was mail them where ever he needed them mailed to at the time because he traveled. I later received a large white envelope containing 2 Postal money orders for $925 each. He said to only cash them at a bank. Red flag #1. Then as I looked at the money order, it had a completely different name on it. David Van Veen. I was to cash the money orders at my bank, keep $400 for myself & send the remaining Western Union to Nigeria. Instead of going to the bank I went straight to the post office, where I was imediately informed that the check was a fake, & I could have possibly gone to federal prison if I had tried to cash it.

The same guy is E-mailing me and I'm not sure if I should reply or not.
This is what he has said...I will prepay you in advance to do my shopping. I will also have my mails and packages
forwarded to your address. When you get my mails / packages; you are required to
mail them to where ever i want them mailed to. You don't have to put money out of
your pocket, all you have to do is have packages shipped to your house and do my
shopping. You are allowed to open the packages to reveal its content. All expenses and
taxes will be covered by me. You will work between 15 and 20hrs a month. I will be
paying $400.00 per week
I need your service because I am constantly out of town. I will return back to the state
real soon so this process will be on going till then. If you don't mind, I will meet up with
you when I return and then we can talk about the possibility of making this long term.
Well, let me know if you are able to handle the position. No heavy packages is
involved! You can do the shopping at any nearest stores. You will be shopping for
Electronics and clothing. I will provide you my personal UPS account number for
Shipping. All you have to do is provide my account number to UPS and shipping charges
will be applied into the account. I will provide clear set of instructions for each task I
need done as well the funds to cover them. If I were to mail you money to do my
shopping plus upfront payment for your service, where would you want it mailed to?
How should your name appear on the payment? Maybe you can provide me with the
