Answer 1

100% scam.



There is no job.



There is only a scammer trying to steal your hard-earned money.



The next email will be from another of the scammer's fake names and free email addresses and will demand you pay for made-up fees, in cash, and only by Western Union or moneygram.



Western Union and moneygram do not verify anything on the form the sender fills out, not the name, not the street address, not the country, not even the gender of the receiver, it all means absolutely nothing. The clerk will not bother to check ID and will simply hand off your cash to whomever walks in the door with the MTCN# and question/answer. Neither company will tell the sender who picked up the cash, at what store location or even in what country your money walked out the door. Neither company has any kind of refund policy, money sent is money gone forever.



Now that you have responded to a scammer, you are on his 'potential ******' list, he will try again to separate you from your cash. He will send you more emails from his other free email addresses using another of his fake names with all kinds of stories of lottery winnings, millions in the bank and desperate, lonely, sexy singles. He will sell you email address to all his scamming buddies who will also send you dozens of fake emails all with the exact same goal, you sending them your cash via Western Union or moneygram.



You could post up the email address and the emails themselves that the scammer is using, it will help make your post more googlable for other suspicious potential victims to find when looking for information.



Do you know how to check the header of a received email? If not, then google for information and learn how. Being able to read the header to determine the geographic location an email originated from will help you weed out the most obvious scams and scammers. Then delete and block that scammer. Don't bother to tell him that you know he is a scammer, it isn't worth your effort. He has one job in life, convincing victims to send him their hard-earned cash.



As you know, whenever suspicious or just plain curious, google everything, website addresses, names used, companies mentioned, phone numbers given, all email addresses, even sentences from the emails as you might be unpleasantly surprised at what you find already posted online. You can also post/ask here and every scam-warner-anti-fraud-busting site you can find before taking a chance and losing money to a scammer.



5 "Rules to follow" to avoid most fake jobs:

1) Job asks to use your personal bank account and/or open a new one.

2) Job asks you to print/mail/cash a check or money order.

3) Job asks you to use Western Union or moneygram in any capacity.

4) Job asks you to accept packages and re-ship them on to anyone.

5) Job asks you to pay visas, immigration, travel fees, expenses in cash via Western Union or moneygram.



Avoiding all jobs that mention any of the above listed 'red flags' and you will miss nearly all fake jobs. Only scammers ask you to do any of the above. No. Exceptions. Ever. For any reason

Answer 2

This has scam written all over it. Western Union tries to ask if you know who you are sending money to so they can warn you. That is why they want to you claim you are sending it to a friend. The fee is the same no matter what. Do not send any money

Answer 3

Any European organisation asking you to send payment visa Western Union is a scam.



This payment method is only ever used by people with no access to a bank account. It is untraceable and irretrievable. You may as well burn your money as send it to a stranger using this method.



Here's someone else who recognised that this was a scam.

Answer 4

anybody who asks you to send money through western union is a scammer.



Sorry, you don't have a job.



If you send them any money it will be lost. Scammers chose Western Union because it is impossible to retrieve sent money.



It is extremely obvious from the text you send that they are only interested in your money...

Answer 5

Absolute fraud ! No company hires like this, have common sense.



They will rob you off your money and get other personal details as bonus. Check your temptation. You are already ( and rightly) in doubt, that is why you have posted this question.

Answer 6

It's a scam. If you don't believe me send them the money. After you send it they'll ask for more. You send them that and they'll find an excuse to ask for more, and more.



There is no job.

Answer 7

Scam - DON'T SEND MONEY
