I responded to an ad on Careerbuilder.com for a Shipping Manager position out of the home from Reativo Ltd. This was a parcel forwarding job. Supposedly there are people in other countries that want to get discounted items from the internet. But most internet companies don't ship to countries such as Russia, Budapest etc. So they use your address as a place where they can ship the product then you forward the product to them. I was sent computer ram chips.
At the end of the week I sent off to them all the chips that I had received during the week. A total worth of about 6-7,000 dollars in product each time. The three times I shipped off product the location was Moscow, Russia.
They promised that after a 25 day paid trial period testing my dilligence and trustworthiness, I would receive 2300 dollars for my time. After 25 days were up, I never heard from them again. They sent money each time for the shipments via Western Union. So there was no money invested from me. Just a months worth of time wasted when I should have been out working somewhere else. Now I am behind in rent. I hope this helps to keep anyone else from getting ripped off.
