Complaint Review: Bulldogs Shipping & Co.

I was approached in an e-mail that Bulldogs shipping had a job opening to work as a shipping forward person from home and you could make money doing it. This was the "hiring" e-mail sent to me. None of the conversations I had with this Jennifer Brown was on the phone. You would think a person that sends that kind of money to a person would want to talk to him or her to make sure all was up to par.

Thank you so much for your response, I have got your information and I want to confirm to you that you have been employed as "Associate Logistic Personnel" and your employment is based on a 1099 contractor status, It is your responsibility to file and pay the appropriate
taxes, both owed to Federal, State and Local governments, our Federal Tax ID is 13-3261501 and the. A check will be sent out to you through a client and it will range from $1,500 to $7,500, I have to start with
this little amount as you are a fresh worker, when you work with me for few months I will be able to entrust larger amount to you, please I want you to know that, you are starting your job immediately you get the check, the check is meant for the money you will be using in
dispatching the letters and packages and also you will be required to pay some freight forwarder for their services when we use any of their services from the funds that will be made available to you not from
your own pocket, so please do confirm to me that you understand and will comply with the instructions and directive given to you in the process of carrying out your duty, your pay will be sent to you through money transfer so please do have a nice day and don't forget
to scan and attach a copy of your ID to me in my email as a J.peg file if you have one and if you can not scan and attach it to me just make sure you have an ID card to show the delivery man when packages will be delivered to you and your salary pay will be sent to you in
whatever way you want it to be sent, you will get $1,000 after 15 days of working and you will get the remaining $1,500 by the end of your working month so I will get back to you when the check has been sent, please do have a lovely day.....

After this e-mail, I was sent a certified check for over $2400 from Eckerd College. That is crazy. The next day she wanted me to money gram $1800 of it to a freight forwarder. Here is his name is address that I believe to be false, But will check into.
>>
Name: Rocky Kingsada
>> Address: 12 NW Ave.,
>> City: Ellenwood
>> State: GA
>> Zip Code: 30294

I never sent that money. I wanted to talk to Jennifer and she never called me or replied to my e-mails and I sent at least 5. She e-mailed me the next day to tell me she was deaf and couldn't answer the phone ( or her e-mails it appears) and just to send the money as directed. But does she not have a hearing person in the facility. I just want consumers to know that this business is given a c- from the BBB. I even called them and they had no more information than I did. I will call the BBB after all is said and done so they know what is up with this company. I have the money in an account and we will see what will happen in a few days. My bet is it was a fake check and I could have been out $1800 from that deal. Consumers beware of what you get yourself into. I will keep you posted on what happens with that. Thanks for you time.
