I received several e-mails from this person who stated that he wanted me to work for him after doing a background check on me. He said that I would make about $500 per month just for depositing checks in my account and then keeping 10% and send them the rest of the money. I played along to see how far this would go.

I got a UPS delivery at the end of Ocotber or beginning of November for $2500.00 from BB&T bank, with a return address for Kristina Pike, 500 S. Broad Street, Kengridge, VA 23944. It was dated 10/31/2008. There was also a letter enclosed from Kristina Pike that stated that Dwight Scholes e-mail address was [email protected], which was a different e-mail address than the one that he sent me the first time. The letter goes on to state that my commission is 10% and I also am to receive a $100 start up/set up fee. the remainder of the funds are supposed to be wired via Western Union to Dwight Scholes.

I still have the check, never deposited it or tried to cash it. I have not heard back from this so called company or individual since getting the UPS package.

It seems to me that if this was a legitimate company, they would have been wondering why I still have the check and never deposited it after a month. I guess the reason that they have not contacted since the end of October is because they know the check is a fake.

"I got a UPS delivery at the end of Ocotber..." Do you know why they don't use the US Postal Service? Because then they could be charged with mail fraud. "the remainder of the funds are supposed to be wired via Western Union to Dwight Scholes." Any time someone wants money wired, Western Union or otherwise, run away screaming. Untraceable cash, you'll never see it again. "It seems to me that if this was a legitimate company..." "If" is the key word here. It's an old and surprisingly effective scam.
