Complaint Review: SellsInstant@aol TTZSH Petrus WorldWide LTD

I want to thank all of you who have filed Rip-Off Reports on these companies. I was "This Close" to falling victim to their scam. Like many others, I was unemployed and was alerted to this "Work At Home" opportunity through a Monster.Com. alert. They should be ashamed!

Unlike the other reports I have read, SellsInstant@aol
(Milan, Italy) did not propose to send checks to me. They instead proposed to wire transfer the funds into my account. I checked with my bank and they assured me that the wire-transferred funds would not be credited to my account until the cash had been received and verified. In other words, once the funds were credited to my account, there was absolutely no way for the transfer to "bounce" or for the transferring company to reverse the transfer and take the money back without my signature and approval. Makes me wonder how they intended to complete the scam.

I was notified by email that I was going to receive a wire transfer of $ 7,983 by 11:00 this morning. I sent a reply stating that I would not withdraw or transfer any funds until such time as my bank had verified receipt of their funds and credited it to my account, irreversibly. Interestingly, the wire transfer from them never appeared. The person who contacted me was allegedly Michael Paulson, email address: sellsinstant@aol. I was contacted several times from the following telephone #: 380-972-5291.
