Its a scam. They send you a check of $3705.25 in the mail and tell u to deposit it. And shop $100.00 at Wal-Mart, JC Penny, Sears or some other department store and evaluate their service and store. Then they tell you to go to either Western Union or MoneyGram to transfer $2955.00 to Angie Cipka or Brian Turner in Atlanta, GA. They'll tell you to transfer with Money in Minutes service which cost about $190.00 and evaluate their service, like how many ID they ask you or did they treat you with respect. And sweet part about it is the check they send you will cover the cost of shopping and fees to transfer the $2955.00 plus the $450.00/week your salary.

After 2 days depositing the check, and bank had the funds ready to use for you and you transfer that $2955.00 and gave the MTCN number the person will receive the cash you sent in 15 minutes and few days later your bank will tell you that your deposited check has bounced and you're responsible for the money you used. You're short $2955.00+$190.00(fees)=$3145.00 and have to pay out of your pocket.

You're thinking that all of this happened to me. You are right! Almost!

I went shopping at wal-mart and transferred $2955.00 to Angie Cipka in Atlanta,GA gave the person Money Transfer Control Number(MTCN). While I was doing all of this I had feelings that something is not right. After giving him the MTCN number, I spoke to him to tell him that I have completed the assignment and he said he'll call me back with confirmation of receiving money. He did not ask me how was the experience or what I thought of the job or anything related to the task. And I went, Oh my GOD! so I went personally to my bank and ask them to double make sure that check was cleared. He said yeah it did, and then I told him that, in case check is bounced I'm not responsible for lost money, then he called the corporate office to find out for sure. So my bank called HSBC and they said it was a fraudulent check. At that point it had been 1 hour since I gave the MTCN number to the person. Luckily, they did not pick the money from western union. So I called and order the refund to western union, went back to wal-mart and returned the merchandise. The only thing I lost was $190.00 for fees to make the transfer at western union.

And I got lucky, so everyone be very careful.
