Complaint Review: King's Luxury Furniture - Unknown Internet

If you receive an e-mail from these people please report them to Career Builder, or the appropriate job site, as well as your state Attorney General and local police department who will refer you to a special division of the Federal Bureau of Investigations. King's Luxury Furniture sends e-mails to people that are in the job market, and then tell the prospective employee that they will send you a money order for you to purchase your supplies. In turn you are to take part of the money and Western Union it for your supplies. I thought it sounded strange; either the money orders were fraudulent or it was a money laundering scam. I was right; the money orders they sent me were fake (fortunately I caught it and requested that my bank look into them before forwarding the money on...most people don't catch it according to my local police department). I am including a copy of the e-mail below and have reported them to the proper authorities. You will be able to tell that the person that wrote the e-mail is extremely uneducated due to poor grammar, misspells, wrong capitalization, etc, but extremely crafty. He didn't inform me that the I needed to forward money via Western Union until the last minute, and used the excuse that they needed to handle the transaction this was because of problems they had with shipping in their area with the USPS. PLEASE.
