Check Processing Employment Scam Letter

from: John Allis, Investorama, Inc.

NOTE: "John Allis" is not the scammer's real name.

 

Letter Source:  It's difficult to determine the actual source of this email.  It traveled a little bit of everywhere across the Internet, but a study of each individual IP address revealed that it probably came from somewhere around Nigeria.  One of the IP's is listed on several scam warning boards, another is chronically "unable to locate."  Additionally, several of the time stamps are +0000, usually indicating the UK, Ghana (a new popular source of Nigerian scam letters), Burkina Faso, and Togo.  All are hotspots of Nigerian scammers.

 

Remember: the only way one can process payments for a company is to open a bank account in that company's name and deposit the checks there.  To open such an account, one must have the company's documents allowing such action, and the signature card must be signed by a company officer, NOT YOU.  All the checks must be made out to the company, and ONLY to the company.  To receive checks made out to you for the company's services or products is called Diversion of Funds, is a criminal act, and is also subject to charges of Money Laundering and Theft.
