I am not a victim as of yet with the exception of getting mail boomed by these con artist on a daily basis. I am to the fed up to the point that I am wanting to tell anyone that will listen and that has any means of catching these people. I am constantly getting bogus e-mail’s. I probably get 3 or 4 a day from people wishing to give me money for helping them get money out of their country. As well as 2 or 3 job offers from over seas companies wanting a representative to take there cash for a 10% per transaction fee. The scam I like the best is from the little old lady’s wanting me to spend their money on a worthy cause and going to give me 10% of the cash to do so. Is there an agency anywhere that wants to catch any of these people? It would seem to me that it would be an easy task to get one of these scam artist to meet at a location and arrest them. Sooner or later after arresting enough of the smaller scam artist you could get one of them to cooperate with the prevailing authority to catch his/her Boss. Just a thought I guess.Below is the latest scam with all related e-mail information:

My name is Robert Williams. I am the Marketing Manager of Ferdinands Childrenswear Limited. We are specialist fashion retailer for kids aged 0-10 years old. We make supplies to our customers in the USA and Canada every week and some prefer making payments with US based Checks which are not easily cashed here in the UK. We are willing to employ you as our part-time PAYMENT REPRESENTATIVE in the States if you are capable and willing. This way we could have our customers issue our payments in your name and have them sent directly to you via courier service.

We do not need your account details or any personal info. This position will not affect your present job nor will you have to use your own resources. It will only cost you a little of your time when necessary. Please get back to us immediately if you are interested for further details. Reply to: ferdinands.marketingmanager@live.com

Regards,
Robert Williams
