Financial Agent Scam! Berlin

In a hurry to find a job I went online and stumble across a 'too good to be true' job offer. I sent a resume without researching the 'company.'

I decided to do some googling and found that the Company Name, Address, Contact person did not show up on any search in google.

I did some further research and found this article:

Which alerted me to the scam I was about to involve myself in. Long story short, this is a Laundering scam that uses unassuming job searchers to transfer funds and such. No, you will not get paid and as detailed in the article, you will also get sentenced!

I should have realized what it was once I read "you will be hired over the internet" but I wasn't thinking clearly. Luckily I did not fax/scan any information other than a cover letter and resume.

DO NOT fall victim to this scam!

I doubt this website will be working in the near future as I responded to the email I recieved from them with a rather nasty reply. Here is the email I recieved if you're curious:

"Hello.
We are glad you manifest an interest in our job
offer!
We have a few questions
for you and if you answer them with answers that suit
our needs then you may
consider yourself hired!
1) How many days are you spending per month out of
your town?
2) Are you checking your e-mail daily? If not how
often? If YES how many times a
day?
3) Do you have a personal bank account? If the answer
is NO can you open one with
a bank in your area?

4) Are you able to go out of your home to a bank/post
office nearby your area?
5) Upon notifications from us that a wire
transferl will
reach you in 24 hrs or so will you be able to wait
for it or go to the bank to
cash it or withdraw the money? (Please note: we shall
never ask you to stay at
home 24hrs/day but you should be aware that our
clients can not wait for us
days in order to receive wire
transfers).
6) Are you able to move around your area fast enough
? (e.G. Go to your local
bank and withdraw money from your account and/or
afterwards sending a wire to
another person/company we will indicate to you?)
7) Can you supply to us a valid scanned copy of your
I.D. (driver's licence OR
passport) and a landline in
order to verify your
identity?

8) Do you have Money Gram branch or Western Union branch in your area?

Respectfully,
ICM Commerce Services
Thank you."
