Tony Woodyatt Managing Director - Hattersley Narrow Fabrics And Textiles Tried to use me in an "Accounts Receivable" position. Sent counterfeit Wal-Mart Money Orders to have me cash and send on to his associates in Kuala Lumpur (to supposedly buy raw materials for his business). ) Internet
I answered an ad sent to me by a lady who sounded like a qualified head-hunter for this Tony Woodyatt. He introduced himself in the email as the Managing Director for Hattersley Narrow Fabrics and Textiles Ltd.
He wrote the following:
We are searching for a financial payment contractor (Accounts Receivable) for our company who is willing to work for us from home and get paid weekly without leaving their present Job. Our clients shall be making payments to us for supplies in money orders/certified checks so you shall help in the processing of the payments to us.
He further wrote:
Subject to our satisfaction you will be paid 10% on any transaction you are involved in. Please if you are interested send the following..
And then he just asked that I send my name, etc.
The second email I received from him was the following:

It was at this point that I became apprehensive and I wrote back enquiring if this was in fact a legal transaction. Mr. Woodyatt wrote me back that it was absolutely such and even went so far as to send an attachment to the email of an I.D. card of a United States Interpol agent affiliated with his company who oversaw all his transactions to make sure everything was done legally.
Mr. Woodyatt sent me several more emails after that while I was still looking into the veracity of his whole operation. I did not want to send him any money, in case it did in fact turn out to be less than a bonified deal.
The card looked fake to me (a cut up and paste job) so I contacted my local FBI and they in turn had me call Interpol in Washington, D.C. They in turn informed that the I.D was absolutely false and to not send any money to this man.
They suggested that I not receive anymore emails from this man and that they would consider looking into the scam as an Organization. So I wrote one more email to Tony Woodyatt informing him of what Interpol had told me and that I would no longer do business with him until I found out whether the Money Orders were real or not.
I just found out on May 29th that two of the MO's were counterfeit and there is still one more that is a possibility. I'm just waiting for that ball to drop.
