Wahum Fabrics And Textiles Offered bogus job exchanging money to avoid higher taxes Refused to give a reply to my questions Ripoff Internet
I dont know how they got my email address but the following job offer came to me and sounded odd so I emailed asking for more information but the only response I received was a "contract" asking for more of my personal info. When I called the # listed, it goes straight to an un-named voice mail. Here is what they sent me: Dear Sir/Madam,
