I GOT OFFERED A JOB DOING SHOPPING FOR SOMEONE OVER SEAS(OF COURSE I KNEW THIS WAS A SCAM BUT I WANTED TO SEE HOW FAR THE SCAMMER WOULD GO,HE WANTED ME TO DO HIS SHOPPING THEN SAID SEND THE PACKAGES TO HIM.theres a house down the road from me its been empty for years i no the owner and she left me keys to forward her any mail and got her permission to use her address,anyway so i gave the scammer this address and five days later a cheque arrived for 2.500!!! he then asked me to cash it and keep 500 and send him the rest to him threw western union!! i had a old sim so i gave him my number,well i took the cheque straight to the police along with copies of my emails and the fraud team are looking into it and said i probably have saved someones savings as there was a womens name on the cheque.so i go home feeling good then i get a message!!! the fraudster messaged me saying hes seen me on facebook and is going to rape me,apparently if you type someones email into facebook there profile comes up!!! so i got mad and called him!!! i ended up chatting to him for an hour.i asked him why he does things like this and why scam people and risk innocent people going to jail,i thought cheque over payment scams were from people abroad but this guy was almost english and from london and i know that because the envelope had london stamped on it and the guy was surprised i knew his accent because im also originally from london,i had a nasty go at him told him he shouldnt be british and told him id reported him.he then offered me a job finding people to cash cheques for him!!! the CHEEK!!!!!! all im trying to say is be very carful and always look up companys that offer you work and always insist on talking to them or a possible meet and take someone with you on your first meet and check the companys reputation always, PS-I NEED A JOB lol
