Check Processing Employment Scam Letter
from:
John Chandler, Payments Manager, Allianz Finance, LLC
NOTE:
"John Chandler" is not
the real name of the scammer
As with
many of these scams, the emails are not all written by the same author even
though they are signed using the same name.

Letter Source: At first glance, this letter appears to
have originated in Guadalajara, Mexico; in fact it originated from
somewhere in current day Russia (+0300 Time Zone). The computer in Mexico may have an
easily accessible "back door" through which the scammers accessed the
Internet. Read more about back doors
HERE.
All computers have back doors, and some are more vulnerable than others.
Take a look at the wire instructions: They've
instructed the victim to send the funds to Moscow. The wire
instructions in Allianz #6 also
give a Moscow address. While that in of
itself is meaningless because the funds can be picked up anywhere once
they are in the Western Union system, keep in mind that these instructions originated in Russia. Moscow
was one of the possibilities.
DO NOT CONFUSE allianzfinance.biz with the real Allianz
Finance II BV / Allianz Group, a legitimate Dutch company. The bad
guys love to use the names of legitimate companies to do their dirty work.
They have also plastered bank logos on their site to make themselves
appear legitimate.
