In any event, I hope this helps.

See the scam section I referenced in this post. This so called opportunity is just one of the check cashing scams we’ve already covered there:

So your gut was right and usually is. So go with it. But I strongly encourage you to read that scam section from top to bottom including watching the video, reading the articles and comments. That couple of hours will save you from a lot of nonsense in the future. Because as you can see, the scams don’t always ask for money. Good luck and enjoy the reading.

Your site has been an inspiration to me. So I was hoping you could help me. Yesterday I received an e-mail from someone claiming (key word there) to represent Hikari Furniture Company in Japan. Here’s part of what it said:

“We need someone to work for the company as a Representative/Bookkeeper in the USA. This is in view of our not having an office presently in the USA. You don’t need to have an Office and this certainly wont disturb any form of work you have going at the moment.

Our integrated furniture manufacturing operations use state-of-the-art equipment from the world’s leading suppliers. Order processing, production monitoring and process flow are seamlessly integrated through a company-wide computer network.
* The average monthly income is about 4000.00 USD.
* No form of investments from you.
* This job takes only 1-3 hours per day

Unfortunately we are unable to open Bank Accounts in the United US without first registering the company name. Presently with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put them on hold. For fear of loosing the customers out rightly.

Secondly we cannot cash these payments from the US soon enough, as international Checks take about 14 working days for cash to be made Available. We lose about 75,000 USD of net income each month because we Have money Transfer delays* your task is to coordinate payments from customers and Help us with the payment process. You are not involved in any sales. Our Sales Representative makes direct contact for sales of products. Once orders are received and sorted we deliver the product to a customer (usually through FEDEX). The customer receives and checks the products. After this has been done The customer has to pay for the products. About 90 percent of our customers prefer to pay through Certified cashier Checks and Money orders based on the amount involved.

YOUR TASK we have decided to open this new job position for solving this problem.

Your tasks are;

1. Receive payment from Customers
2. Cash Payment at your Bank
3. Deduct 10% which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed
4. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of the offices you will be contacted to send payment to.(Payment is to be forwarded by Western Union Money Transfer or money gram transfer).Local Money transfers take barely hours, so it will give us a possibility to get customer’s payment almost immediately.”

Now, I’ve heard of scams where someone contacts you claiming to be from an established overseas company–Hikari Furniture IS in fact a legitimate company in Japan–but are in reality just using you to launder money for them. But they seem to have thought of that, too:

“IS THIS LEGAL? Yes it is. As a matter of fact, our legal department checked all legal provisions to ensure if there is any domestic or international law against businesses or deals in this manner and also money laundry acts, also it complies with USA Patriot Act Section 314(b)”

Sure, anyone can SAY that. But the difference between this one and the money-laundering scams seems to be that, instead of receiving money from “the company,” and sending it to “clients,” it seems to be the other way around.

This e-mail talks a good game. And it avoids most of the warning signs that you’ve provided over the years. So why do I have this nagging feeling? I figured I’d consult you and the folks here before I stepped into deep soup.

Thanks from Dave.

Glad it helped. Sorry to hear about your situation. Hopefully as you read the site you’ll find a job or some other opportunities that will help bring some income in. In terms of your question, I don’t know of any specific jobs to help you because I don’t really know your skill set. But that being said you may want to check out my work at home companies page as mentioned above: http://www.workathomenoscams.com/companies Maybe you can find something there. As long as you’re subscriber:

Bringing some money in is always better than none even if it’s not 3-5k at the moment. Good luck to you and have a happy holiday!
