Pertus Worldwide Ricarrdo Capladi Fradulent Job and counterfeit check Milan Italy Internet
I also responded to a monster.com ad that offered the perfect part-time job as an international representative. Processing check for an international company from their U.S Creditors. The job paints a great picture including you as something like a secretary/accountant. Promising promotions and a permanent position in three months. They even claim to have done investigation on each employee. Monster is aware of the situation but still did not issue a warning or notice on their site.
They sent me my first check of 4729.00 I deposited the check and upon withdrawal I was arrested on the spot. Charged with burglary and forgery.
I am distorted and mental damaged. I have experienced something I would never imagine. I have become a victim and need help to prove my innocence and shut this company down.

I too almost fell prey for $9,940.14 and supposedly my commission would be $800 per transaction. Just out of the blue something told me to go online and look up their information in google and voila, all these people who have fallen prey to this scam.
Thank God I did not become a victim for that amount of money because it would take me an entire year to put back that money into my account and not to mention all the fees associated with it for every 5 business days that the account remains insufficient.
After reading much of the comments posted on this site, I finally came across one posting by a Det. Jim Nagy of the Richmond Heights Police Dept. in Ohio. I contacted Det. Nagy and told him that I have just received a check via FedEx from these crooks and don't know what to do with it, since he is investigating this matter for a resident in his area who became a victim of this scam, he advised me to send him all original documents and to keep copies for myself and inform the crooks that I haven't had a chance to deposit the amount into my account. So, in conclusion you may need to get in touch with Det.

Hello,
I too believed in this scam and received a counterfeit check from them. I waited for the bank to try to clear it, not having any idea it was fake. My bank did NOT clear it, and returned it to me. I called the FBI that day, and was told it was not enough to investigate. I have since contacted the FDIC and am awaiting their contact back.
The checks LOOK official, and have all the watermarks on them, and mine was supposedly drawn from Chase Manhattan, a very large bank. It LOOKS very official. But it is NOT.
